In today’s episode, Team BFF Coach Peggie Larsen joins us again to dive into the challenges and mindset shifts that come with fitness, weight loss, and body image, especially for women navigating midlife and beyond. Peggie shares her personal journey of achieving a lean physique, only to realize it wasn’t sustainable for her health or happiness. Now, she focuses on feeling strong, healthy, and confident, debunking societal pressures that push women to chase unattainable ideals.
The conversation also touches on the importance of finding balance, learning to listen to your body, and letting go of the numbers on the scale. We explore how movement, nutrition, and mental well-being go hand-in-hand, highlighting the critical need to trust the process and embrace your own unique fitness journey.
And so much more…

“Quit looking back and just be the best you can be now. Keep moving forward.”
