Who you surround yourself with matters — more than you think. In this episode, Angie and Emily explain how your community shapes your mindset, habits, and personal growth.

They’ll show you how the right people help you move faster, celebrate your wins, and believe in you (especially when you don’t believe in yourself). They’re also keeping it real about the risks of going it alone: feeling stuck, isolated, and moving at a snail’s pace.

Tune in for their favorite tips on choosing your circle wisely, outgrowing what no longer fits, and being the kind of person who lifts others up too!

Angie and Emily dive into the common pitfalls many women encounter—going to extremes just before summer, only to reverse their progress at social gatherings and vacations. Instead of temporary fixes, Angie and Emily share how focusing on sustainable habits can create lasting results, allowing listeners to feel confident, strong, and energized all year round.

They'll walk you through the plan they've used to help hundreds of women get toned physiques in their 40s and beyond, and cover:

• how often to strength train
• how to use walking and non-exercise movement to boost your results
• what a balanced nutrition plan looks like—and what Emily's love of quarter pounders can teach you about sustainability
• how much you can expect to lose realistically on this plan in as little as 12 weeks—and how this plan could improve your life beyond dropping scale weight alone

They also introduce their popular Summer Shred group program, designed to help busy moms like you cultivate a flexible, stress-free mindset toward fitness and nutrition—while getting you the best results of your life.

If you're tired of feeling ashamed or self-conscious of your body in shorts, tank tops, and bathing suits in the summer—this is the episode for you!
