    Ep 111- Stay In It: Training Through the Summer Chaos

    Send us Fan Mail Kat introduces MilesFromHerView and explains how changes to the summer schedule and travel can disrupt fitness routines. She argues that true consistency isn’t about rigidly completing every planned session but about staying “in relationship” with training by keeping the thread even when workouts are modified, shorter, or chaotic. She shares her own unstructured “re-entry” after completing an FKT on the 230-mile Pennsylvania Appalachian Trail (34,000+ feet of climbing) in 98 hours and 41 minutes, noting that recovery and maintenance can feel wrong even when they’re the right approach. Kat reframes the “gray area” as where real development happens and offers four planning questions for the next 6–8 weeks: assess real availability, define what you’re training for, choose what you want to do this summer, and create a backup “good enough” plan so you can adapt without guilt. 00:00 Welcome to the Podcast 00:51 Summer Schedule Shifts 01:43 Redefining Consistency 04:43 Kat’s Post FKT Reentry 06:58 Summer Can Derail Plans 08:09 Plans That Bend 09:00 Four Questions Framework 09:44 Question One Availability 10:10 Question Two Training Goal 11:40 Question Three Summer Movement 13:02 Question Four Backup Plan 14:16 You’re Not Off Track 14:50 Share and Work With Me 15:21 Outro and Subscribe ☎️ Schedule a Complimentary Call See if KatFit Strength is a good fit for you: Book Here 📩 Join the KatFit Strength Weekly Newsletter Get coaching tips, mindset insights, and updates: Sign Up Here ❓ Questions About Strength, Nutrition, or Cardio?

    107: Unseen Work, Unrealized Power: The Boundaries You Never Knew You Needed

    Send us Fan Mail Kat welcomes Ayla, a psychotherapist and family coach who specializes in boundaries, burnout, over-functioning, and generational trauma. They discuss why high-achieving women and moms often feel drained as they handle logistics, emotions, and goals. Ayla explains over-functioning as doing for others what they can do themselves, such as taking on extra chores, speaking for others, or jumping into conflicts. She notes that supportive partnerships can still feel unbalanced due to invisible labor and cultural expectations. Using Bowen family systems theory, she describes how stress creates cycles of over- and under-functioning, sharing an example involving a “Fair Play” household task card game that caused resentment. Ayla emphasizes that boundaries are non-punitive limits protecting relationships and reducing resentment, highlighting the importance of clear communication, natural consequences, creative compromises, and modeling boundaries for children.
