No food burns fat—but the right foods support fat loss. In this episode, I break down how to build meals that keep you full, energized, and consistent while cutting. Plus: the real talk about fat loss phases, why you shouldn't stay in a deficit forever, and the nutrition habits that actually change your body. This one's a must-listen for anyone in a cut—or thinking about one.  

You've seen the titles: “Fat-burning workout!” “10-minute fat shredder!” “Lose belly fat fast!” And today, I'm calling it out: That's all marketing. In this episode, I break down the truth behind fat loss workouts, why muscle—not cardio—is your secret weapon, and what actually helps you burn fat and change your body composition. Here's what we cover:

You're lifting. Meal prepping. Saying no to the snacks... …and the scale still says nah? Before you throw it across the room—listen up. In this episode, I'm spilling the real tea on why the scale isn't the full story, what changes you should actually be tracking, and how to finally celebrate the real wins you're making every day.

Let's get real—fat loss doesn't create definition. It only reveals what's already there. In this episode, I'm calling out one of the biggest mistakes I see women make: chasing fat loss before ever building muscle. If you've ever cut calories, done the ab workouts, and still felt like your body didn't reflect the work—you need this. I'll explain why your abs (and your glutes, arms, and everything else) need to be trained and fueled like any other muscle… and why shrinking down won't get you the sculpted, strong look you want. This episode is short, straight up, and a total mindset shift. Let's change the way we approach fat loss—forever.  

In this episode, I'm sharing a powerful story from a recent consultation with a woman who lost over 85 pounds after undergoing bypass surgery—but still has 35% body fat and no muscle. We're diving into why weight loss alone isn't the answer, and what truly determines your health: your body composition, muscle mass, and sustainable habits. Whether you've considered extreme measures or just feel stuck in your journey, this is your reminder that health isn't about eating less—it's about building more.

In this episode of Change Your Story, I reflect on the cost of striving for perfection and how that pursuit kept me running from myself. Even after getting sober, I didn't feel good enough—I believed that being “perfect” was the only way to be worthy. But that belief came at a price. It wasn't until I decided to stop running and embrace who I truly was—imperfections and all—that my story began to change. In this episode, I'll share: The hidden ways perfectionism can keep you stuck. Why self-acceptance is more powerful than trying to be perfect. How changing the story in your mind can change your life. If you've ever felt like you need to be someone else to feel worthy, this episode is for you. Tune in and learn how to embrace who you are and rewrite your story.

In this episode of Change Your Story, I reflect on the power of second chances and what they truly mean. Life will give us as many chances as we are willing to take, but taking that chance is just the beginning. I share personal insights on how embracing second chances can open the door to transformation, but also why the real work begins after you say "yes" to starting over. In this episode, you'll learn: Why second chances are a gift and how to recognize them. How to make the most of a fresh start and commit to lasting change. Why the journey of change requires both courage and consistency. Second chances aren't just about starting over—they're about committing to becoming the best version of yourself. Let this episode inspire you to say “yes” to your next opportunity. Tune in now and take that first step toward changing your story.

I share the pivotal moments that helped me turn things around and the lessons I learned from hitting rock bottom. In this episode, you'll discover: How small choices can lead to destructive patterns—and how to reclaim your life. The role of self-forgiveness in healing from shame and regret. Why you have the strength to rise, no matter how far you've fallen. My hope is that this episode reminds you that your past doesn't define your future. It's never too late to change your story. Tune in now and take this powerful journey with me.

In this powerful episode of Change Your Story, Coach Hannah dives deep into the lessons and reflections from Part One of her story, The Story We Don't Choose. She revisits how her childhood environment shaped her early beliefs and explores the transformative insights she's gained from rewriting those broken narratives. Hannah shares actionable takeaways to help you challenge your own inherited beliefs, break generational cycles, and create a life filled with love, purpose, and freedom.

For years, I chased perfection—trying to control my body, my career, and how the world saw me. But no matter how much I achieved, it was never enough. In this episode, I'm sharing how that relentless pursuit led me to extremes like plastic surgery and bodybuilding, and the moment I realized I was running from myself. This is the story of how I stopped chasing and started healing, rewriting my story from the inside out.  

Leaving Vancouver was one of the hardest but best decisions of my life. It was the start of second chances—getting a fresh start in Edmonton, finding love in the most unexpected way, and beginning to rebuild my life. In this episode, I'm sharing how listening to that voice of faith led me to my husband, sobriety, and the life I had always dreamed of. This is a story of redemption, love, and building something beautiful out of the ashes.  

At 18, I thought I could leave my pain behind by moving to Vancouver to chase my dreams. Instead, I spiraled further into it—addiction, dangerous relationships, and a life I never imagined for myself. In this episode, I'm sharing how my escape turned into a nightmare and how I eventually found the strength to pull myself out. This is a story of hitting rock bottom and finding hope in the most unexpected ways.  

At 13, I found myself battling an eating disorder, using food to numb the pain and anger I didn't know how to process. This was also the year my mom attempted suicide—a moment that shifted my greatest fear from losing her to becoming her. In this episode, I'm sharing how food became my way of coping and how fitness, introduced during this time, gave me my first glimpse of strength and hope. This is a story of struggle, survival, and finding a lifeline in the most unexpected place.  

In this episode, I'm taking you back to the very beginning—the story I didn't choose but that shaped so much of who I believed I was. Growing up surrounded by abuse, addiction, and instability, I developed fears and beliefs that would follow me for years. But even in the chaos, there were glimmers of hope, moments where I dreamed of a different life. This is where it all started, the foundation of the story I would later learn to rewrite. Join me as I share the raw and real beginnings of my journey and reflect on how the stories we don't choose can shape us—but don't have to define us.  

In this raw and heartfelt episode, I'm opening up about one of the most challenging seasons of my life. After 4 years of building an app that was my dream, I lost it all— the app, the time, energy, and resources I poured into it, and even the person who helped me create it. On top of that, I faced the heartbreak of not getting the book deal I had worked so hard for. But through it all, I've learned that life is too short to wait for things to be perfect or polished. Sometimes, the most impactful moments come from starting before you're ready and sharing your story as it unfolds. In this episode, I reflect on: Why life isn't a highlight reel but a journey of growth through challenges. The lessons I've learned about resilience, imperfection, and moving forward. How these experiences can remind you that you're not alone in your struggles. I've also decided to share My Story over the next few episodes. Stay tuned for this upcoming series, where I'll dive deeper into my journey, the highs and lows, and the lessons that have shaped me. My Ask: If this episode resonates with you, please share it with someone you know who might need it. My goal is to reach as many women as possible and impact their hearts and minds. Thank you for being part of this journey with me.

In this episode of Change Your Story, Coach Hannah dives deep into the topic of embracing change. Change can be challenging, even scary, as it often requires us to let go of what feels familiar and comfortable. But within that discomfort lies the potential for growth and transformation. Coach Hannah explores: Why change feels like loss and how to reframe it as an opportunity for growth. The natural trade-offs that come with change and why they're necessary for progress. How to navigate the fear and discomfort that often accompany change. The importance of self-reflection and how it strengthens your relationship with yourself and others. How community and support can make the journey of change less isolating and more empowering. You'll leave this episode feeling inspired to step into the unknown, embrace the process, and rewrite your story with courage and intention. Takeaways: Change is a process that stretches us into becoming our higher selves. The discomfort of change is a sign of growth, not failure. You don't have to do it alone – finding your community can provide the support you need.
