    Women Behind The Weights [The LSF Podcast ReBranded]

    💬 Why We Rebranded from The LadyStrong Fitcast to The Women Behind the Weights Over the years, The LadyStrong Fitcast became more than just a fitness podcast — it evolved into a space where women opened up about their journeys, challenges, and transformations. While the show began as an extension of the LadyStrong Fitness brand, we realized our conversations were expanding far beyond the gym. We weren’t just talking about workouts anymore — we were talking about life: leadership, motherhood, business, relationships, mindset, and everything that shapes the woman behind the workout. That realization inspired the rebrand. The Women Behind the Weights represents growth, depth, and evolution. It’s about celebrating strength in every form — physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. By stepping into this new identity, we’re able to reach more women, share more powerful stories, and connect on a more meaningful level. It’s still rooted in the same LadyStrong values — community, empowerment, and authenticity — but now, it reflects the whole woman, not just her fitness journey. Because behind every weight lifted is a woman with a story worth telling. And The Women Behind the Weights is where those stories come to life.

    LSF LOCATION 3 - [WE'RE NOT DONE YET]

    We’re excited to share a behind-the-scenes look into what it takes to bring LadyStrong Fitness into its third location. In this conversation, the co-founders open up about the playing field ahead, the process of making big decisions, and the questions we ask ourselves to know if we’re truly ready for the next step. From weighing risks to embracing opportunities, nothing is sugarcoated. They're taking you inside the mindset it takes to keep pushing forward while staying true to the mission. As we look to the future, we know that the impact of LadyStrong Fitness extends beyond the walls of our gyms — it’s about building a community that grows stronger together. This episode is all about vulnerability, vision, and the drive to continue creating spaces where women can become the best version of themselves. We’re not holding anything back, and we hope this glimpse into our journey inspires you as much as it motivates us.
