Shownotes

In today’s incredible episode, I chat with my inspiring client Karen, the grand prize transformation winner from the first round of The Body Composition Project! When Karen joined the program, she was dealing with constant back and neck pain that felt impossible to manage. Physical therapy and back injections? Didn’t help. But through The Body Composition Project, she became nearly pain-free and completely transformed her body and mindset. If you're stuck in your fitness journey or dealing with chronic pain, you won't want to miss this! 

Karen shares what it was like before her transformation – her struggles with diets, jumping from program to program, and feeling skeptical about trying something new. She discusses how she faced her fears, realized that change is possible at any age, and made simple shifts in her diet that worked without giving up the foods she loves. And you'll hear her DEXA scan results prove it all!
