In this episode of Hey Hana, I’m joined by my husband, Peter Kraus - fitness expert, gym owner, and someone who has spent years helping people build sustainable, healthy relationships with movement.

We recorded this episode with the girls in mind - especially anyone who feels intimidated by the gym, overwhelmed by where to start, or unsure about starting in a gym or with pilates, etc - but it quickly became clear that this conversation is for everyone!

We get into the questions people are asking at the start of the year:
Where do you actually start in a gym routine?
Are classes better than lifting weights?
Is it okay to copy workouts you see online?
What should my daily and weekly schedule be at the gym?
And how can I stick to the basic routines that work for me long-term?

Peter breaks down training in a way that’s grounded, practical, and refreshingly honest - talking about balance, longevity, strength training, cardio, gym intimidation, and why consistency matters more than intensity. Full episode also available on YouTube!

It’s January, and suddenly everyone is telling you how to “own” the year - new habits, new goals, new systems, new you. But what if you didn’t need a total reset to be on track?

In this episode, I’m sharing a softer reframe for 2026: why your life isn’t a checklist, why you don’t have to force a full rebrand in January, and how trusting your timeline can be the most productive thing you do. We talk about urgency, grace, seasons of rest, and why progress is still progress - even when it’s invisible.

Plus, a little life catch-up: I’m 35 today (!!), 30 weeks pregnant, deep in third trimester exhaustion, watching The Traitors, and (yes) I made Peter watch the Taylor Swift documentary.

One week married and we’re back on the mic from the scene of it all - my mom’s backyard in Florida, where our wedding actually happened!! For this audio-only episode, Peter and I are recapping the entire wedding week and day, from the sunrise ocean dip that turned into an ER trip, to the rehearsal chaos, the surprise gator sighting, and the welcome dinner that made it all feel real.

We get into the details of the morning-of nerves, the kids absolutely stealing the show, and the moment Peter accidentally flubbed our vows. Plus, the sweetest surprise from my mom, the magical moments, what we’d change (almost nothing), and how it feels stepping into married life while very pregnant.
