    66. How to Not Lose Progress in the Summer

    This week on Seek the Edge, Kelsey talks about something so many people struggle with during the summer… staying consistent when routines change. Vacations, late nights, social plans, and unpredictable schedules can make it easy to lose momentum and fall into the “I’ll restart later” mindset. But what if consistency didn’t have to mean perfection? In this episode, Kelsey breaks down how to stay connected to your goals without becoming obsessive or missing out on life. From redefining what consistency actually looks like, to building simple non-negotiables that keep you grounded, this conversation is all about learning how to enjoy summer while still showing up for yourself. Because real confidence is built in the small choices you continue to make, even when life looks different.

    65. Women Hiking the Adirondack Mountains

    Kelsey sits down with Jill Hile and Amy to reflect on their experience hiking Algonquin Mountain with the XYL Hike ADK crew. What started as a physical challenge became so much more — pushing through self-doubt, learning to trust themselves, leaning on the women around them, and realizing they were capable of more than they believed.They open up about the moments they wanted to quit, what helped them keep going, and how the lessons they learned on the mountain followed them back into everyday life. From growing their confidence to building stronger relationships, this conversation is a reminder that sometimes the biggest growth comes from simply deciding to try.Because once you prove to yourself you can do hard things, everything else starts to feel a little more possible.To connect with Kelsey: -Join the One Degree Newsletter: ⁠https://xpandyourlimit.com/theonedegree⁠-Follow Kelsey on socials: @kelseylensmanVisit Xpand Your Limits:-Join events and coaching at xpandyourlimit.com-Follow XYL on socials @xpandyourlimits-Follow Seek the Edge Podcast on socials @seektheedgepod

    64. The Reason Behind Seek the Edge

    Most people are waiting to feel ready before they take the first step. But what if confidence, growth, purpose, and even healing are built through movement first? In this episode of Seek the Edge, Kelsey dives into the meaning behind the phrase that inspired the entire podcast and why so much of the life people are praying for is waiting on the other side of discomfort. Through personal stories, faith, psychology-backed research, and lessons from her own journey building XYL, hosting events, launching businesses, and stepping into uncomfortable seasons before feeling ready, Kelsey breaks down why growth rarely happens inside the comfort zone. She shares why confidence is built through action, how challenge changes the brain, and why so many people stay stuck waiting for certainty instead of moving anyway. Whether your edge looks like starting over, taking care of your body, having a hard conversation, trusting God again, or finally saying yes to the thing that’s been on your heart, this episode is a reminder that courage often comes after the first step — not before it.Because sometimes the potential you’re searching for isn’t missing. It’s just trapped behind comfort.

    63. How to Fuel in the Morning

    This episode is your reset—especially if you started strong but feel like you’ve slipped a little. Kelsey breaks down what consistency actually looks like in real life—and why it’s the key to real, lasting progress. She dives into the all-or-nothing mindset that keeps so many women stuck, and how shifting to an 80% approach helps you build momentum without burning out. From weekly habits to daily choices, Kelsey simplifies what actually matters—and what doesn’t. She also gets practical with one of the easiest ways to stay on track: building a balanced plate. You’ll learn how to structure your meals—especially breakfast—to support your energy, reduce cravings, and make consistency feel easier, not harder. If you’ve ever felt like you’re either all in or completely off track, this episode will help you find the middle ground where progress actually happens. Because it’s not about being perfect—it’s about continuing, one small shift at a time.

    62. Perimenopause: What's Happening In Your Body with Dr Paige Gutheil

    So many women feel off… but don’t know why. In this episode, host Kelsey sits down with Dr. Paige Gutheil—osteopathic family physician and certified menopause practitioner—to break down what’s actually happening in the body during perimenopause and why so many women feel dismissed, confused, or just not like themselves. They talk through the early signs most women overlook, how hormone shifts impact energy, metabolism, and body composition, and why it’s not “just part of getting older.” Dr. Paige also dives into the role of strength training, nutrition, sleep, and stress, and how all of it plays a bigger role than people think. They unpack hormone replacement therapy, clear up common misconceptions, and explain what a proactive, empowered approach to this stage of life can actually look like—before things feel out of control. This episode is about understanding your body, asking better questions, and not settling for feeling “sick and tired” as normal.

    61. The Key to Better Recovery

    This episode is your reminder that more isn’t always better.After a weekend of women stepping outside their comfort zones and choosing growth, Kelsey breaks down something that often gets overlooked in the pursuit of “doing more” — recovery.Because the truth is, your body doesn’t differentiate between stress. Training, work, relationships, lack of sleep… it all stacks. And when that stress outweighs your ability to recover, that’s where things start to fall apart.In this episode, Kelsey walks through the stress + recovery equation and why growth only happens when both are in balance. She shares her own wake-up moments, from pushing too hard to dealing with hormonal issues, and how that shifted the way she approaches training, health, and life.You’ll also learn the five pillars of recovery — sleep, nutrition, nervous system regulation, active recovery, and mental/emotional recovery — and how to actually apply them in your day-to-day routine.This isn’t about doing less. It’s about doing better.If you’ve been stuck in the mindset of “push harder, do more,” this episode will challenge that — and show you how to train, live, and grow in a way that actually lasts.To connect with Kelsey: -Join the One Degree Newsletter: ⁠https://xpandyourlimit.com/theonedegree⁠-Follow Kelsey on socials: @kelseylensmanVisit Xpand Your Limits:-Join events and coaching at xpandyourlimit.com-Follow XYL on socials @xpandyourlimits-Follow Seek the Edge Podcast on socials @seektheedgepod
