Long hikes, long rides, mountain air — and... no snacks?
In this episode, we dive into a crucial but often overlooked topic: why many active women unintentionally underfuel during outdoor sports and what it means for their hormones, energy, and long-term health.

From RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) to real talk about period loss, fatigue, and performance dips — I’m breaking down how to recognize the signs of low energy availability and why carbs, salt, and proper recovery are your best adventure allies.

Whether you're a runner, cyclist, hiker, or just love moving in nature — this is your reminder: strong, happy, and hormonally balanced starts with fuel.

In a world full of fitness plans, 30-day challenges, "must - do - trends" and shoulds, it’s easy to forget the most powerful question: Why do YOU move?

In this episode, we dive deep into how to find your own unique training style — one that’s built on how you want to feel, not just how you want to look. We’ll explore why it’s essential to move in a way that supports your physical and mental health and your individual energy — especially as a woman.

In a world of judgement, instagram aesthetics and "perfect lifestyle habits" it's important to rebound and rethink some society created mantras.

Whether you're lifting heavy, walking in the woods, dancing in your kitchen, or just starting again… this episode is your reminder:
👉 You don’t have to follow their rules.
👉 You don’t have to prove anything.
👉 You just need to move like you.

Let’s redefine what performance means — on your terms.

In this first episode, I share my story — from group fitness instructor to women’s health and performance coach — and the real reason Women on Peak was born. I talk about the questions that kept coming up over the years: What’s safe to do during your period? How should women train in pregnancy? Why do we still follow training advice made for men?

This podcast is here to change that.

If you’re ready to train smarter, live in sync with your body, and take full ownership of your strength — this is your space.

And this is just the beginning. I’d love to hear your thoughts, questions, and ideas as we grow this conversation together — because women’s health deserves more clarity, more respect, and more real talk around the world.
