Send us Fan Mail Many women think their struggle with food is a discipline problem. Sara Stansberry thought the same. At one point, Sara found herself standing in the pantry late at night, eating chips not because she was hungry, but because she was overwhelmed, exhausted, and disconnected from herself. What followed was a journey that helped her lose 52 pounds, rebuild self-trust, improve her rel...

Send us Fan Mail Most people don’t need more nutrition information. They already know many of the basics. They know protein matters. They know vegetables are good. They know extreme diets don’t work long term. They know eating at night is often not really about hunger. But knowing what to do is not the same as doing it in real life. In this episode, I’m joined by Nicholas Kelly, a registered dieti...

Send us Fan Mail Most people don’t fail because they don’t know what to do. They know protein matters. They know strength training helps. They know walking is good. They know extreme diets don’t work long term. They know eating at night is often not really about hunger. But knowing what to do is not the same as doing it in real life. Because real life has stress, family, work, low energy, emotions...

Send us Fan Mail Pain can make you want to stop moving. Your knees hurt, so you avoid training. Your back feels stiff, so you skip exercise. Your shoulder hurts, so you think strength training is not for you anymore. But what if stopping completely is not always the answer? In this episode, I’m joined by Eileen Kopsaftis, physical therapist, movement expert, owner of Have Lifelong Wellbeing, and a...

Send us Fan Mail Most people don’t talk honestly enough about drinking more than they planned. Not because they have no discipline. Not because they are broken. Not because they need more shame. But often because alcohol has become the way they switch off, calm down, reward themselves, or deal with stress, overthinking, grief, or emotional overload. In this episode, I’m joined by Tansy Forrest, cl...

Send us Fan Mail You don’t need a perfect workout. You need a workout you can actually do when life is busy, messy, and far from perfect. In this episode, I talk about why so many people skip workouts even when they want to be consistent. Often, it’s not because they’re lazy or unmotivated. It’s because the workout in their head feels too big. 45 minutes.  The full program.  The perfect session.  ...

Send us Fan Mail Most adults who struggle with food didn’t just wake up one day with a problem. Often, the story started much earlier. Maybe food was used as comfort. Maybe you were told to finish your plate. Maybe you were bullied about your body. Maybe dieting, shame, or feeling “not good enough” became part of your relationship with food. In this episode, I’m joined by Kamy Moussavi , founder o...

Send us Fan Mail You know strength training would help. You know it can support your metabolism, bones, posture, confidence, and long-term health. But still… starting feels hard. Maybe you feel too weak.  Maybe the gym feels intimidating.  Maybe you don’t know what exercises to do.  Maybe you’re afraid of doing it wrong.  Or maybe you keep thinking, “I should have started years ago.” In this episo...

Send us Fan Mail You want to be consistent with your workouts. You know training is important. You know you’ll feel better after. You know it helps your body, energy, confidence, and health. But still… you skip. Not because you’re lazy. Not because you don’t care. And not because you need more discipline. In this episode, I explain why many people keep skipping workouts even when they truly want t...

Send us Fan Mail You already ate dinner. You’re not really hungry. But still… you walk into the kitchen, open the fridge, check the cupboards, and look for “something small.” And before you know it, that small snack turns into much more than you planned. In this episode, I talk about why you keep eating after dinner even when you’re not hungry and why this has nothing to do with being weak or lack...

You’ll learn:  Why you overeat at night   How stress and fatigue drive your choices   Simple ways to stay more in control without being perfect  If you’ve ever thought, “I was doing so well… until the evening” — th...

Send us Fan Mail Most people already know what to do. Eat better. Move more. Be consistent. So why do so many still feel stuck? In this episode, I sit down with Toby Brooks — professor, coach, and host of the Becoming UnDone  podcast — to talk about the real reason people keep falling off track. It’s not a lack of discipline. It’s not a lack of knowledge. It’s identity. We go deeper than workouts...

Send us Fan Mail Why do you keep starting over… even when you really want to change? Every Monday feels like a fresh start. New plan. New motivation. New rules. And by Wednesday… it’s already slipping. So you reset again next week. 👉 This is what I call the Monday Reset Trap. In this episode, I break down why this cycle keeps happening and more importantly, how to finally get out of it. You’ll le...

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, I talk about something many people get wrong: 👉 You don’t need more discipline. You need a better system. Most people think they fail because they are not motivated enough or not disciplined enough. But the real problem is this: They are relying on willpower instead of building systems that actually support their daily life. Because discipline works… until it doe...

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, I talk about something everyone struggles with: What do you actually do when you don’t feel motivated? Because the truth is… motivation comes and goes. And if your progress depends on motivation, your results will also come and go. I share exactly what I do on those days when I don’t feel like training, eating well, or sticking to my routine and what I teach my cl...

Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the FitMitTuro Fitness Podcast , I’m joined by strength coach and educator Heike Yates , who specializes in helping women stay strong, mobile and confident after 50. Many women believe that aging means slowing down, losing strength and accepting physical limitations.

Send us Fan Mail In this solo episode, I talk about something many people experience but rarely understand: why evenings are often the hardest part of the day when it comes to food. Many people tell me the same story. They eat well all day, stay disciplined at work, maybe even get a workout in… and then the evening comes and everything falls apart. Snacks appear. Dessert turns into more food. And...

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, I talk about something deeper than calories or dieting. I talk about trust. Many people don’t struggle with information anymore. They know what to eat. They’ve tracked macros. They’ve tried multiple diets. But they still don’t trust themselves around food. Years of restriction, labeling foods as “good” and “bad,” and starting over every Monday slowly erode self-tr...

Send us Fan Mail I’m resharing this episode because this is one of the most common frustrations I see: “I’m eating clean… so why am I not losing fat?” In this episode, I break down the real reasons why clean eating alone doesn’t guarantee fat loss. I talk about how even healthy foods can slow progress when portion sizes are underestimated. Foods like nuts, avocado, granola, salmon, and peanut butt...

Send us Fan Mail In this solo episode, I share what the Olympics really look like behind the scenes and what they taught me about consistency, discipline and pressure. Most people see highlight reels. What I experienced was structure, repetition, logistics, and calm preparation. The Olympic Village is simple. Security is strict. Media coverage is global. But what truly matters isn’t glamour, it’s...

Samia shares her personal journey of transforming her relationship with her body, food, and movement. We talk about how grief after losing her father affected her motivation, self-esteem, and daily life and how ex...

Send us Fan Mail January is the time when many people start doubting themselves. They feel like their plan isn’t working, results aren’t showing fast enough, and the first thought is often: “Maybe I need to change everything.” In this solo episode, I talk about why so many people quit their fitness goals in January and why changing your plan too often is usually the real problem. I explain how unr...

Send us Fan Mail Lately, I get asked a lot about AI workouts. Are they good? Are they better than YouTube workouts? And do you still need a coach? In this solo episode, I share my honest take as a coach who works with real people, real schedules, and real life stress and how I use AI in my coaching. I break down the differences between random YouTube workouts, general AI-generated workout plans, a...
