Sue returns with Episode 2 of The Quiet Shift, covering the often-misunderstood "calibration phase" in your fitness journey—that critical period where you're nurturing change but not yet seeing dramatic results.
In this episode, Sue reveals why this phase triggers many to prematurely slash calories, dramatically increase cardio, or abandon their plans altogether. Through personal experience, she shares her strategy for maintaining patience while methodically gathering the metrics that will ultimately lead to sustainable success.
Join Sue as she guides you through navigating this challenging transition from potential frustration into powerful momentum.
As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!

In this episode, we meet Alex's client, Jessica, who shares her remarkable transformation from her lowest point to sustainable success.
We start by discussing her rock bottom moment before discovering coaching and how waiting for the "perfect time" was actually holding her back from making meaningful change.
Jessica opens up about her experience working through the nerves and adapting to a new approach to nutrition while juggling the demands of three children and a hectic schedule—proving that lasting change is possible even in the busiest of lifestyles.
She also details how she navigates periods of low motivation, establishes sustainable habits, and the crucial "aha" moments where she realized she had truly transformed. This isn't just about physical results but also the impact her journey has had on her relationships and mindset.
We're diving into what it really takes to create lasting change in health, habits, and happiness!
As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!

Gym Girl Chats is back and this time we're joined by the one and only Emily Duncan! From reminiscing over our long-time friendship and navigating the mindset shifts that come with turning 30, to diving deep into assumptions people make about women who lift, her evolving routines, and the habit she still hasn't nailed down... We cover a LOT.
Emily opens up about the pressures of living in the public fitness eye and how she's learned to balance expectations with authenticity.
We get real about body image, the role of attractiveness in society, and why it's okay to want more out of life.
It's not all super serious, though—we round things out with some fun: current makeup faves, go-to snacks, fashion picks, training music, and even Emily's biggest gym "ick."
This one is packed with laughs, friendship, and conversations you don’t want to miss!
As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!

We are thrilled to welcome Brittany, the newest coach to join our PD Team! Brittany's fitness journey began after having her daughter, when she found herself completely lost on where to start with health and movement. Determined to make a change, she dove headfirst into learning everything she could about fitness.
In 2018, Brittany earned her ACSM certification and launched her coaching career at a gym in Greenville, SC, where she built a solid foundation in coaching and client relationships. Since then, she's expanded her expertise with a Precision Nutrition Level 1 certification and has taught at multiple specialty fitness studios including CycleBar, RowHouse, and currently — The Lagree Method in Dublin, OH.
Brittany specializes in helping women find freedom with food, build sustainable lifestyles that support their goals, and rediscover comfort in their own skin. We're diving into her personal transformation, her background, and her heart in this episode.

Join us today as Coach Sue shares powerful insights on attitude and mindset. She reveals that mindset isn't an inherent trait some possess while others don't—it's actually about what you consciously allow to influence you. You have to intentionally create a positive and empowering environment… Or the world will be loud enough to shape it for you (and no one wants that version).
Listen as she shares practical tips she's personally incorporated to cultivate a life filled with positivity.
As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!
