#76 - Janis's One-Year Transformation, In Her Own Words

Janis spent a year and a half stuck in a chair-to-chair routine before something changed. In this episode she joins us to walk through her first year of coaching - the programs that didn't work before ours, the prayer she said in the shower, the moment her husband noticed she was back, and two falls down her deck stairs that could have derailed everything (but didn't).

This episode covers strength training carryover to real life, the walking pad that removed her excuses, the emotional side of habit change, and what she'd tell anyone standing where she was a year ago.
