    Send us Fan Mail Kat addresses overwhelming fitness advice and explains how busy women can structure strength training, cardio, and mobility as a connected system, especially during August’s back-to-school “hinge month.” She emphasizes starting from a realistic baseline without guilt, noting that strength training becomes crucial in the late 30s/40s as estrogen declines and muscle supports metabolism, joints, and long-term resilience.

    EP 119- There’s No Wagon to Fall Off Of: Getting Back to Your Routine After Summer

    Send us Fan Mail Kat challenges the “never miss a workout” culture that creates guilt after vacations or disrupted routines, arguing the fitness framework of “falling off and getting back on” is broken. Citing a 2021 University of South Florida randomized controlled trial in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, she explains that while both rigid and flexible programs worked during a structured phase, the flexible group continued gaining lean muscle afterward while the rigid group lost progress once real life returned. Drawing from college athletics programming, she presents a cyclical yearly approach—build, peak, maintenance, and recovery—tailored to life rhythms like school schedules, travel, illness, or busy work seasons, emphasizing maintenance and planned recovery as valid phases rather than failures.  Resources Mentioned: University of South Florida study on flexible vs. rigid training (2021, JISSN) Train with Kat: KatFit coaching and training programs (more info at kat.fit). 00:00 Consistency Guilt Trap 01:18 Podcast Welcome 02:13 Summer Routine Shift 03:03 Rigid vs Flexible Study 04:43 Training Around Life 06:07 No Wagon Just Rhythm 08:03 Yearly Phase Framework 08:30 Build Phase Basics 09:12 Peak Phase Window 09:38 Maintenance Without Shame 10:15 Recovery Is Planned 10:59 Cycle It All Year 11:52 Leave Guilt Behind 12:24 Closing 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?

    Ep118- Body Shame Is a Business Model: And Your Body Was Never the Problem

    Send us Fan Mail Kat returns to Miles From Review after a July pause to talk about why women’s bodies get labeled and narrated, and how those “neutral” descriptors often carry judgment. Using her own experience of being called “thin,” “big,” and “big-boned,” she explores how certain bodies are treated as the default while others invite commentary, and how women across pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause are pushed to believe thinner would fix uncertainty. She argues this pressure is manufactured by transformation culture and a profitable fitness industry that sells “snap back” solutions, and shares how chasing her college-athlete body through restriction backfired. Referencing Sonya Renee Taylor’s The Body Is Not an Apology and the concept of “body terrorism,” she offers practical steps: pause before body comments, audit your feed, name the shame voice, decline fix-it marketing, and compliment capability over appearance.

    EP 115- [BEST OF] ADHD in Midlife Women: Symptoms, Perimenopause Connection, and What to Do Next

    Send us Fan Mail Licensed trauma-informed therapist Avery Wasmanski joins host Kat on MilesFromHerView to discuss what ADHD is, how it can look different in each person, and why symptoms often feel amplified for women in midlife—especially during perimenopause, when hormonal shifts can affect focus, mood, sleep, and memory. They explore how ADHD-related executive functioning challenges and emotional regulation struggles can fuel shame, perfectionism, and “not good enough” feelings in motherhood, and why it’s not simply a lack of discipline or willpower. Avery emphasizes identifying barriers, practicing self-compassion, using flexible routines based on capacity, and shifting from merely functioning to thriving through mindfulness and self-awareness. They also address symptom overlap between ADHD and perimenopause, suggest looking at lifelong patterns, and recommend educating yourself (including Attitude Mag) and seeking a provider open to exploring ADHD. 00:00 Meet Avery and Topic 00:42 Podcast Welcome and Disclaimer 02:37 What ADHD Really Is 04:08 Motherhood Shame and Perfectionism 06:55 Discipline Myth and Barriers 11:07 Perimenopause Hormones and ADHD 16:00 ADHD vs Perimenopause Symptoms 20:36 High Achievers Burnout Cycle 25:25 From Surviving to Thriving 32:41 First Steps and Resources 35:04 Finding the Right Provider 38:15 Final Takeaways and Wrap Up ☎️ 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?
