In this episode of the Lift Her Weight Podcast, we dive into Serena Williams’ recent 31 lb weight loss using GLP-1 medications like Ozempic — what it means for body positivity, women’s health, and long-term fitness. We also get real about bulking vs cutting as competitors: the struggles, the mindset, and the science behind fueling your body.

This week, I’m getting real about something that’s been bugging me: why are strong women — especially moms and muscular women in fitness — STILL being picked apart? I’m celebrating how Sue Richards in Fantastic Four: First Steps portrays motherhood as powerful, capable, and heroic — yet in real life, we’re still expected to stay small and “soft.” Meanwhile, icons like Sydney Sweeney push a “pretty, delicate” aesthetic that quietly reinforces the beauty standards keeping so many women boxed in. Plus, I’m spilling some tea on a few emerging celebrity couples (yes — surprise Canadian connections included!) that are making headlines and sparking even more debate over what “power couples” should look like in today’s culture. Why is it okay to be dainty and cute… but the minute you’re jacked, confident, or powerful, you’re called “too manly,” “too much,” or “not feminine enough”? If you’ve ever felt judged for being strong, sexy, ambitious — or just different — this episode is for you. It’s time we stop shrinking ourselves to fit outdated expectations and start celebrating what real empowerment looks like… ripped muscles, stretch marks, tender hearts and all.

In this episode of the Lift Her Weight Podcast, we dive into the viral Coldplay kiss cam moment and unpack why it sparked such a reaction online.

From gym culture commentary to real-life reflections on how pop culture intersects with wellness and personal growth, this episode offers a fun yet thoughtful look at the trends shaping both our workouts and our world.
