Why motivation and even discipline are smaller pieces of the puzzle than we realize, and what to focus on instead to create lasting habits Specific examples of what flexibility in an exercise routine can look like Having a healthy relationship with fitness after struggling with eating disorders, disordered patters, or body image  How to approach fitness and training goals no matter who you are How to help a loved one when you're worried they're going down a harmful path of disordered behaviors Combatting NEW YEAR NEW YOU toxic fitness culture messaging in January (and beyond) and more!
