Do you keep saying, “I need to start working out,” but feel completely overwhelmed every time you try? You're not lazy. You're likely just stuck in analysis paralysis—trying to figure out what workouts to do, how many reps, whether you need to join a gym, and wondering if you're even doing it right. If you've been Googling phrases like “workout routine for beginners,” “how to get toned,” or “simple health rhythms” but nothing sticks, this episode will give you the actual steps to start building strength—without the perfectionism, pressure, or Pinterest rabbit holes. Shaela walks you through how to: Choose the right number of training days for your real life (not your fantasy calendar) Match your workout split with your schedule using practical templates (2, 3, 4, or 5 days a week) Plug in movement patterns like squats, hinges, push/pull exercises, and core work Use equipment you already have—or none at all!

Have you ever felt like if you can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing at all? Whether it's meal tracking, a workout routine, or your body image goals—perfectionism creeps in and convinces us that anything less than a 10/10 just doesn't count. In this powerful conversation, Shaela sits down with Brittany Braswell, RD, to unpack how perfectionism shows up in our health, our habits, and even our spiritual life. Together, they explore how striving keeps us stuck in fear, shame, and all-or-nothing cycles—and how God invites us to walk in peace and freedom instead. Brittany shares how perfectionism can masquerade as control, and how fear often fuels our obsession with getting it “just right.” But as Christian women, we're not called to carry that burden. Instead, we're invited to release the pressure and start living from grace—not guilt. Whether you struggle with obsessiveness around food, pushing yourself to never miss a workout, or falling into apathy when things feel “off track,” this episode will help you find your footing again—with truth, Scripture, and simple next steps. You'll Learn: What perfectionism really looks like in your fitness & food habits How to identify sneaky “rules” that create pressure & guilt Why fear is often the root of performance-driven health How to start choosing progress over pressure in a faith-filled way A practical framework for shifting from control to stewardship

Ultimate Guide to Protein – A free resource packed with practical tips, recipes, and personalized advice on how to get more protein in your diet. [Download Here!] https://www.shaeladaugherty.com/proteinguide In this episode, we're diving deep into one of the most misunderstood aspects of nutrition—protein intake for women. Whether you're aiming for fat loss, building lean muscle, or simply improving your overall metabolism, understanding protein's role in your diet is crucial—especially as you move past 30. Join me, Shaela Daugherty, as I share my personal story of how I navigated the world of protein and fitness and debunk some of the biggest myths around protein for women. If you've ever worried about whether protein will make you "bulky" or if you're eating too much, this episode is for you! Here's what we cover: The real reason behind muscle loss after 30 and why protein is key for preserving lean muscle. How protein supports your metabolism and helps burn fat even while you're at rest. The critical role protein plays in hormonal health, and how increasing your intake can help with weight management. Debunking myths like “Protein is only for bodybuilders” and “I don't need to think about protein in every meal.” How to know if you're eating the right amount of protein for your body and your specific fitness goals (hint: you're probably not eating enough). If you're looking to take control of your fitness, improve your weight management, and finally understand how protein can support your journey toward a healthier life, this episode is packed with actionable insights. Free Resource: Don't forget to download my Ultimate Guide to Protein. It includes a breakdown of how much protein you need based on your body weight and goals, high-protein recipes, and more tips for incorporating protein into your meals. Key Takeaways: Why Protein is Essential for Women Over 30: Muscle mass naturally declines after 30, leading to increased body fat and decreased muscle tone. Protein helps slow this process and supports recovery from workouts. The Role of Protein in Hormonal Health: Protein plays a crucial role in balancing hormones, which is essential for metabolism, muscle maintenance, and fat loss as we age. How Protein Boosts Metabolism: Eating more protein increases the calories your body burns at rest due to the energy required to digest it, making it a key factor in fat loss. Debunking Common Protein Myths: Myth #1: Protein is only for bodybuilders. Myth #2: I don't need that much protein. Myth #3: Protein will make me gain weight. Myth #4: I don't need protein in every meal. Actionable Tips: Start tracking your daily protein intake and see if you're meeting your needs (0.8-1g of protein per pound of body weight). Include protein at every meal to help keep your energy stable and recover from your workouts.

Pop Art Painter Jamie Roxx (www.JamieRoxx.us) welcomes Michelle Ehlen, Dir, Wri, Act & Shaela Cook, Act (Maybe Someday, Film | LGBTQ+, Com, Dra) to the Show!    ● FB: @maybesomedayfilm  ● TW: @MaybeSomedayJay ● IG: @maybesomedayfilm Watch here: https://creatics.org/cinejoy/moviepage/189777/Maybe-Someday Maybe Someday will have its world premiere at Cinequest's virtual film festival "Cinejoy" April 1-17. An LGBTQ feature film highlighting different aspects of love and heartbreak, Maybe Someday is a nostalgic and moving journey written and directed by Michelle Ehlen. The film is Ehlen's fifth feature and first dramedy, her prior films most notably being the first lesbian comedy trilogy - Butch Jamie, Heterosexual Jill, and S&M Sally. Maybe Someday stars Ehlen along with Shaela Cook from Heterosexual Jill and S&M Sally, and Charlie Steers. The story follows the character of Jay (Ehlen), a non-binary photographer in her 40s, battling a mixture of denial and depression as she attempts to move across the country in the midst of separating from her wife (Jeneen Robinson). Along the way, she takes a detour to stay with her high school best friend (Cook) who Jay used to be secretly in love with before she came out as a lesbian, and befriends a charismatic but complicated gay man (Steers) who has long given up on love. Struggling to move forward with the next chapter of her life, memories of the past resurface as Jay grapples with the inevitable cycles of love, loss, and letting go.  

As one of the Canadian prairie underground's most respected independent artists, Shaela Miller is playing the music she wants to, adding the elements that progress her vision while firmly grounded in that go-to sound generation after generation grew up with on AM radio in single-cab farm trucks. Swingin' shuffles and sweet, yearning songs depicting both the good times and hard times that only get written by someone who's lived every minute of them. Shaela's new record, Big Hair, Small City further cements her place as a cut above the rest in her region in terms of any kind of real tangible Honky-Tonk/Country Music flavouring. It was nice to catch up to interrogate her about the new album and interesting journey that led her there. For more on Shaela visit: www.shaelamiller.com
