Ever feel like your body is straight-up rebelling?

You’re eating clean, working out, doing all the “right” things, but the scale won’t budge, your moods are a rollercoaster, and you’re ready to scream into a pillow every time someone asks, “What’s for dinner?”

Yep, that’s not “just life”, that’s stress overload.

In this Fit Girl Magic podcast episode, I’m joined by the powerhouse herself, Stephanie Crassweller, to break down what stress really looks like (spoiler: it’s not just deadlines and drama). We’re unpacking how stress messes with your hormones, metabolism, sleep, cravings, basically everything, and what to actually do about it.

We talk about:

· 👉 Why “eat less, move more” is not the fix
👉 How your stress plate is overflowing, and what to take off
👉 The sneaky ways cortisol keeps your belly fat stuck
👉 Why doing less might finally get you results
👉 How to turn stress into a boundary, not a burnout badge

If you’ve ever said, “This is just how my life is,” or doubled down on harder workouts when you’re already fried, this one’s your wake-up call.

It’s time to stop fighting your body and start listening to it.

👉 Hit play now and learn how to turn stress from your enemy into your guide.

What if the harder you try, the more stuck you actually get?

I know, sounds backwards, but I learned this lesson the hard way. Picture this: I’m in Hawaii, surrounded by paradise, and instead of enjoying the damn beach, I’m in full-blown meltdown mode over whether I earned my Mai Tai.

That was the moment I realized… something had to change. Enter: The Flip Flop Life, my “napkin manifesto” that sat on my hard drive for six years before I finally brought it to life.

In this episode, we’re diving into:

· Why perfection and all-or-nothing dieting are making you miserable (not healthy).

· How to ditch the food police soundtrack running in your head 24/7.

· The boring (a.k.a. unsexy) basics that actually move the needle, sleep, stress, protein, fiber, consistency.

· What happens when you finally let it be easy instead of chasing six-week shred promises.

This isn’t another 30-day quick fix. It’s a lifestyle shift for women who are done white knuckling their way through diets, workouts, and “earning their food.”

So, if you’re ready to trade the mental gymnastics for ease, fun, and actually living your life, welcome to The Flip Flop Life.

So… Serena Williams shares she used GLP-1s to support her weight loss and the internet implodes with hot takes, shade, and side-eyes.

Here’s the truth: when it comes to midlife weight loss, some folks don’t come to this decision lightly, and others are judging from the sidelines. If you’ve ever felt like you had to hide what’s working for you because someone else might label it "cheating," this Fit Girl Magic podcast episode is your permission slip to shut that noise down.

In this candid, smart, and hilarious conversation, I sat down with Dr. Megan Garcia Webb, triple board-certified in internal medicine and obesity medicine (yes, triple), to break down:

· What GLP-1s like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound actually do

· Why “food noise” might be what’s really driving your cravings

· The real deal on side effects like muscle loss, gut issues, and does it really cause cancer

· Who’s a great candidate for these meds, and who should pause before jumping in

· Why natural GLP boosters are more boring than sexy (but still matter)

· How social media makes women feel like they’re doing it “wrong”, no matter what they choose

· The #1 most underrated weight loss tool (spoiler: it’s not a supplement)

· Whether you’re GLP-curious, already on it, or side-eyeing it from afar, this episode is about giving you clarity, facts, and a whole lot of freedom.
