Ever felt like your body is screaming at you, and your business is too?

This episode is going to change the way you think about your health and your systems. I’m joined by the amazing Rachel Carta, registered nurse, functional nutrition counselor, and life coach, for a conversation that connects the dots between what’s going on in your body and what’s going on behind the scenes of your business.

Rachel and I dig into why your symptoms are actually signals, how everything is connected (yes, even your gut and your To Do list), and why simplicity is the key to healing both your health and your chaos.

If you’ve ever felt like you were in constant survival mode, or like you’re always behind, always pushing, and your body just isn’t keeping up, this one’s for you.

Rachel shares her story of chronic migraines, burnout, and the breakdown that led her to completely change the way she lived and worked. She teaches how to listen to your body, recognize patterns, and implement small, simple habits that lead to massive shifts. We also talk about perimenopause, blood sugar, fiber, breathwork, and how to stop organizing your grandmother’s trinkets instead of doing what matters in your business (ahem…can you relate?).

This is not your typical health episode. Get ready to feel seen, empowered, and maybe finally ready to slow down and pay attention to what your body is telling you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why your symptoms aren’t random, they’re signals

• The 3 roots of health Rachel focuses on with every client

• How to know if what you’re dealing with is emotional, medical, or stress-related

• The nervous system’s role in organization, focus, and digestion

• Why your brain thinks “organizing grandma’s trinkets” is just as urgent as launching your offer

• 3 small, doable shifts to feel better in your body and more focused in your business

• How deep breathing and fiber can change your life

• Why organizing your business lowers stress in your body

• Simple signs you’re stuck in fight or flight and what to do about it

Think you need to be glued to social media 24/7 to build a successful coaching business? Think again. Today, I’m showing you a completely different and way simpler path to building a thriving fitness‑coaching business without living on Instagram.

On this episode, I talk with Ria Zervos, a longtime fitness pro turned business coach for health and fitness coaches. After 22 years in the gym industry (from the towel desk to managing large corporate group‑exercise programs, running trade shows, coordinating presenters - she’s done it all), Ria now lives in Costa Rica and helps fitness professionals build legit online businesses without depending on social media algorithms or daily posting.

We dig into why so many fitness pros struggle to get paid what they deserve, how they often overlook the goldmine sitting right under their noses (their existing network), and Ria walks us step‑by‑step through how she helps her clients build real businesses by talking to real people. No cold DMs. No burnout. Just real conversations, clear programs, and smart positioning.

We cover:

• Why social‑media fame doesn’t equal financial success.

• How to use your everyday network, from your hairdresser and doctor to the barista at your favorite cafe, to build a client base.

• The three critical things every fitness coach’s profile (on any platform) needs: who you are, who you serve, and what you offer.

• How to craft and test a simple, logical coaching program before trying to sell it online.

• Why collaborating with other coaches (even those you view as “competition”) can help you both grow.

• Small offline/low-tech marketing tactics that actually work (think coffee‑shop chats, spa tables, even flyers in a chiropractor’s office).

Whether you’re a fitness pro ready to quit the treadmill of social media or just a coach who wants to simplify how you get clients, this episode is for you.

• Why relying on social media alone won’t pay the bills, and what will.
• How to turn everyday people you already know (or bump into) into clients by simply talking about what you do.
• The three messaging questions every coach’s profile needs to answer (even if you don’t use social media).
• How to build a coaching program with clear steps and tangible outcomes that sell (without confusing or overwhelming people).
• How to collaborate strategically with other coaches, even those who seem like competitors, to expand your reach.
• Simple, low‑tech ways to get your first clients (flyers in waiting rooms, spa or yoga‑studio events, bringing snacks, yes, snacks!).

Instead of doing a typical “deal rundown,” this episode is really about something deeper:

Simplicity.

Over the past year, I realized I’ve unintentionally complicated my business. Too many downloads. Too many ideas. Too many programs. Too many strategies. Too much noise.

And now? I feel this strong pull to simplify everything — my business, my routines, my decisions, my focus.

So I’m taking five mornings in December to do a personal “simplification retreat,” and in this episode, I walk you through the three questions I’m asking myself each day to reset, clear the clutter, and refocus on what actually matters.

Identify the essential actions that truly moved your business forward this year.

Uncover the tasks, tools, habits, offers, and routines that created confusion instead of clarity.

Once you know what matters, simplify how you get those actions done.

These questions can transform the way you run your business and your life, and you can use them alongside me.

I also walk through each of the five Black Friday deals (open for 24 hours!) through the lens of simplicity, showing you how each one removes complexity and helps you build an organized, peaceful foundation for 2026.

Whether you’re simplifying your business or your home, join me through one of the Black Friday offers IF you think it will aid you in simplifying your life.
