• Bonus Episode: The Athlete's Guide to Off-Season Nutrition

  Happy December! I'm hopping back on the mic to bring you a bonus episode all about a topic that comes up every single year with my clients: off-season fueling. When training volume drops and structure loosens, it’s easy to shift your focus away from your nutrition. And let's face it - it's also a crazy time of year. But what you eat in the off-season has a huge impact on your energy, recovery, general health, and how you feel heading into your next training cycle.Whether you're taking real time off, switching activities or sports, or simply doing less of the same, this episode will help you stay fueled without micromanaging every bite.In this episode, I cover:What the “off-season” actually is (and why it matters)Core fueling principles that don’t change, no matter the seasonHow to adjust your nutrition when volume and intensity dropA practical look at carb needs during lower-volume trainingHow to build balanced meals and snacks without tracking everythingWhen (and when not) to consider body recomposition goalsWhy fueling your workouts still matters in the off-seasonHow to use this time to build resilience for your next training cycleThis is a must-listen for anyone feeling a little lost with their nutrition after a big training cycle or who needs a refresher on foundational fueling strategies that are relevant year-round.🎧 Tune in to learn more! P.S.

• Fertility and Hormone Health for Athletes

  In Episode 126 of The Eat for Endurance Podcast, I’m joined by fertility experts Laura Ligos, Registered Dietitian and founder of The Sassy Dietitian, and Danielle Kepics, Physician Assistant and founder of Empowered Mind + Body. Together, they co-run The Unconventional Collaborative, a mastermind supporting practitioners, coaches, and trainers looking to elevate their work (I’m a member myself!).In this episode, we explore a topic that doesn’t get nearly enough attention in athletic spaces: fertility and how it connects to performance and long-term health for both women and men.PSA: Fertility isn’t just about having kids. It’s also a reflection of hormone and metabolic health, energy availability, and overall well-being. In other words, your reproductive health is a vital sign of how your body is functioning.We dive into:Why fertility is about so much more than having kids (although we talk about that too, don't worry)How underfueling and stress impact fertility and hormone healthCommon signs of low energy availability in athletesWhy menstrual cycles (for women) and testosterone levels (for men) are key performance and health indicatorsNutrition strategies to support fertility and healthy hormonesThe role of birth control in reproductive healthAnd SO much more!This is a must-listen for any active person who wants to perform their best and protect their long-term well-being.🎧 Tune in to learn more!Links & ResourcesFollow Laura Ligos on Instagram and visit her website Follow Danielle Kepics on Instagram and visit her website Check out the Unconventional Collab if you're a providerJoin my membership, Fuel for Life Crew, for $30/month (cancel anytime, discounted membership options available)Check out my free nutrition downloadsBrowse my library of nutrition masterclasses (all are included inside the Fuel for Life Crew membership)Interested in 1:1 coaching?
