  • EP169: The Inner Work Behind Fitness Transformations: Q&A
    Jun 7 2025

    Christina and Bella take on an emotional and thought-provoking Q&A. It's Bella's first time in Canada, and the two sit down post-leg-day to talk about the inner work, identity shifts, and uncomfortable truths behind fitness.


    From feeling like you don’t belong in the gym to struggling with binge eating, body image, and the pressure to "earn" your rest. They reflect on how their definitions of discipline have evolved, how failure has shaped their strength, and what it truly means to stay committed to the lifestyle for the long haul.


    Topics Discussed:


    • The internal battle of not feeling worthy of your success and how to stop self-sabotaging when you're finally making progress
    • Why building trust in yourself requires going “all in” with structure, repetition, and even monotony for long periods of time before balance can be earned
    • The harsh reality that not everyone who "works hard" will see results at the same rate—and how to stay focused anyway
    • Bella’s 100+ lb weight loss journey, the loose skin, the judgment, the relapse moments, and what has helped her continue to push forward and build confidence
    • How jealousy, resentment, and self-comparison can be signals to dig deeper into your own values and unmet needs
    • The emotional toll of loneliness, trauma, sickness, and not having support—and how to own the unfair setbacks instead of shutting down
    • Christina’s "bake the cake before you ice it" analogy and how it applies to training, relationships, and lifestyle goals
    • What it means to find your people—and why surrounding yourself with those who live the life you want matters



    This is not your typical motivational talk. We discuss the messy middle of fitness journeys—and the powerful transformation that happens when you refuse to quit, even when it hurts.

  • EP167: Advanced Nutrition Protocols: When & How to Use Them
    May 12 2025

    In this deep-dive solo episode, Christina breaks down different nutrition strategies coaches often use for weight loss. From carb cycling to refeed days, reverse dieting, and treat meals. Tune in to learn how each one works, when (or if) they’re actually needed, and why jumping into these before you've mastered the basics does a LOT more harm than good.


    If you’ve ever felt tempted to “try something new” with your diet, this episode unpacks the pros and cons of each strategy and explains why nutrition is highly context dependent. Christina breaks down the why behind each approach—so you (and your coach) can feel more confident applying the right tools at the right time.


    Topics Discussed:


    • What "advanced nutrition protocols" actually are and why they're not ideal for everyone
    • How to know when you're ready for more “advanced” strategies (and when you're not)
    • Why slow & simple TYPICALLY works better than any complex strategy
    • What actually matters more — when you eat or what you eat?
    • The biggest mistake people make with treat meals, reverse diets, and refeeds
    • What actually crashes your metabolism (it's probably not what you think)
    • Why the first 16–32 weeks with a coach are just the foundation
    • Treat meals vs. cheat meals: the psychological risks and benefits
    • Refeed days vs. refeed meals: when to use them and how they differ
    • Diet breaks vs. reverse diets: what makes each one more or less effective


    Plus: Christina’s take on meal timing, macro splits, digestion, gut health, and why “just hit your macros” is usually not good enough.
