From Professional Dancer to Coach: What I Kept, What I Unlearned

Episode summary In this episode, Lily reflects on how her background as a professional dancer has shaped her approach to fitness, resilience, and coaching and the important lessons she’s had to unlearn along the way. From rejection and relentless training to discipline, structure, and body awareness, the dance world gave her powerful tools that now support her fitness goals and business. But it also ingrained beliefs around restriction, aesthetics, and “earning” results that she had to consciously dismantle. This episode explores both sides: the gifts and the growth, and how they’ve shaped the Inside Out Method today. What you’ll hear in this episode The relentless reality of the dance industry and how it builds resilienceHow rejection and repetition strengthened Lily’s mindset as a business ownerThe power of structure and why random workouts don’t create high-level progressTransitioning from expert to beginner again (and why that’s uncomfortable but powerful)The body awareness dancers develop and how it translates into fitnessWhy restrictive eating was normalised and how unlearning it changed everythingThe Friday binge / Monday restriction cycle and what was really driving itWhy sweating more doesn’t mean better resultsMoving from performative training to training for yourselfDebunking the myth that heavy weights make women bulkyHow lifting heavier improved body confidence and physical results Want to talk about it?

Episode summary Body confidence is a phrase we hear all the time but what does it really mean? In this episode, Lily unpacks why body confidence isn’t something you automatically get once you reach an aesthetic goal, and why so many women still feel anxious, self-critical, or “not enough” even after changing their bodies.

How working on your mind gets you better external results

Episode 3 Why Working on Your Mind Leads to Better Physical Results In this episode, Lily explores why lasting physical results don’t come from willpower, restriction, or punishment, they come from working on what’s happening internally first. Drawing from her own experience in the professional dance world and her work as a trainer and mental health focused coach, Lily explains how mindset, self-talk, stress, sleep, and emotional regulation directly influence consistency, habits, and body composition. This episode is about moving away from quick fixes and learning how calming the mind allows the body to change from a place of self-trust rather than self-criticism.
