In this episode, we dive deep into retirement planning statistics that might surprise you—and hopefully motivate you to take action. We break down the numbers, share personal stories, and give you practical steps to start preparing for your future, no matter what stage of life you're in.

1. Start where you are: Even if you're past the "ideal" window for compounding, taking action now is better than waiting

2. Know your numbers: Understand what government benefits you'll actually receive

3. Review your spending: Track where your money goes—especially dining out

4. Think long-term: You're likely to live longer than previous generations planned for

5. Get professional help: This isn't your specialty, and that's okay

• Review your current retirement savings and projections

• Calculate your expected CPP and OAS benefits

• Analyze 3 months of spending to find financial leaks

• Consider insurance as part of your investment strategy

• Have honest conversations with your partner about retirement goals

• Statistics Canada retirement data (2022-2025)

• The Latte Factor by David Bach

• Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter

In this episode, I'm thrilled to take things "internal" and introduce you to one of my incredible team members, Kristine Peacock. Kristine is not only our Synced online fitness studio manager and head macro coach, but she's also a true cheerleader for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and body composition changes. Today we're talking about all things macros!

Key Takeaways:

• Real change takes time—commit to a year, but know that true transformation is a multi-year journey.

• Simplicity and consistency in both movement and nutrition are more powerful than chasing the next quick fix.

• Tracking your food, workouts, and even symptoms can empower you to make informed decisions and see real progress.

• It's never too late to start, and you're never "too busy" or "too far gone" to make meaningful changes.

In this episode, I dive into the real challenges women face around health, self-care, and mindset—especially during the holidays and the new year. I share practical tips for stabilizing blood sugar, building muscle, supporting your nervous system, and reframing your approach to food, movement, and self-worth. This is not about "New Year, New You"—it's about sustainable, compassionate change and choosing yourself every day.

Chapters:

• 25:24 – Building Muscle for Resilience

• 28:07 – Nervous System Support

• 33:07 – Reframing Food, Movement & Support

• 36:40 – Radical Responsibility & The Long Game
