210 - "I Got 14 New Teeth in Turkey (and Here's What I Didn't Expect)"

What happens when a fitness coach with a complicated dental history, a stepmom from Turkey, and a no-excuses attitude decides to finally do something about it? She books a flight, packs four bags of protein powder and her resistance bands, and takes you along for the whole 12-day ride. This episode is a travel journal, a mindset lesson, and a masterclass in staying the course when literally everything about your environment changes. From dental surgery in Izmir to an overnight bus to missing her flight home at Heathrow — Amy does not skip a beat. Key Takeaways: Defining success differently on hard trips isn't quitting, it's coaching yourself in real time.Two protein servings a day (shake + bar) can be your nutritional anchor when everything else is unpredictable.Medical tourism is real, it's legitimate, and for dental work especially, Turkey is worth serious consideration.Recovery matters more than training when you're sleep-deprived, healing, and running on adrenaline.Walking everywhere counts. Steps are training. Presence is the workout.The body you've built shows up even when you're not at the gym… like when you lift an 80kg pole and surprise a local.
