In today’s show, host Lisa Franz sits down with Stephanie McKibban, a seasoned coach and athlete with a powerful story of resilience, personal transformation, and a passion for helping others find their healthiest selves through sustainable habits. Stephanie opens up about her journey from marathon runner and “cardio bunny” to a life-changing accident that shifted her toward strength training and nutrition coaching. She shares the challenges of starting over, the importance of giving yourself time, and why building sustainable habits, rather than chasing quick fixes is the real secret to long-term success. Together, Lisa and Stephanie tackle common struggles like all-or-nothing thinking, balancing family meals with fitness goals, navigating social occasions guilt-free, and the critical role of resistance training (especially for women over 35). You’ll get practical tips, candid wisdom, and plenty of encouragement, whether you’re a coach, competitor, or just starting out. Tune in for relatable stories, actionable strategies, and a supportive conversation to help you build health and confidence for life!
