3 April 2025, 7:00 am - 1 hour 5 minutesUse Your FLAWS As Opportunities for GROWTH | PD Podcast Ep.211
Flaws? Yep, we all have them—even though we don't always like to admit it. But, facing our weaknesses is much better than ignoring them. Sometimes saying, "That's just how I am," is actually reinforcing a fixed identity that prevents growth and self-improvement.
In this episode, Sue and Alex dive deep into their personal weaknesses, why they persist, and practical strategies to address them. We explore how acknowledging our flaws is the first critical step toward meaningful change and a more balanced life—and why it's so important to confront your weaknesses head-on.
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!

17 March 2025, 7:00 am - 4 minutes 8 secondsAdding Weight ISN'T the Only Way to Make Progress with Coach Charlotte | PD Fit Bits
When it comes to getting the most out of your workouts, it's easy to fall into the trap of chasing numbers on the weight stack. But here's the thing—your muscles don't actually know what number is written on that dumbbell or plate.
Coach Charlotte is on the podcast today with a short episode reminding you to not get so caught up on the number on the weight in your hand or on the bar and that progress will actually *accelerate* when you focus less on the numbers and more on the quality of each contraction.

Have you ever felt like you just look at food and gain weight? In today’s Fit Bit, Coach Mia joins us to explore why (and how) you actually CAN eat more and stay lean—it's all about working WITH your metabolism, not against it. She breaks down five key strategies to transform your relationship with food and your body.
She also reveals how to ensure your metabolism is working for you instead of keeping your body in survival mode. You'll discover the importance of building more muscle, training with proper intensity, prioritizing nutrients over simply counting calories, and developing honest awareness about your nutritional habits.
