In this episode, we dive into the importance of nutritional awareness and learning to listen to your body's signals in both diet and training. We discuss how tracking macros can be a valuable tool for understanding calorie density and satiety—but it’s not something you need to rely on forever. Plus, we break down the balance between progressive overload and knowing when to adjust your training based on recovery and readiness. Our goal as coaches is to help you build sustainable habits, develop autonomy in your fitness journey, and make these skills second nature.

📢 Highlights from this episode:

• The role of calorie density in satiety and meal planning
• Why tracking macros is a tool—not a lifelong requirement
• The importance of listening to your body in training and recovery
• How auto-regulation and RPE can help optimize your workouts

👉 Tune in for an honest, relatable chat that goes beyond the highlight reels and into the heart of what it means to connect authentically.
