In this powerful and refreshingly real episode, Madison Michielssen sits down with Jodi Stabile, founder of Sweat in St. Pete, to unpack the unspoken truth behind burnout, balance, and building a life that actually fits you.

• How to know the difference between being tired and burning out
• The hidden dangers of chasing success without stopping to celebrate it
• Why your healthiest self might actually come from doing less
• How structure, strategy, and self-awareness can unlock more freedom, not less

In this honest, reflective episode of The Psyche Behind the Physique, IFBB Bikini Pro and MPowered Coaching Collective founder Maddy Michielssen unpacks a struggle many women face: how to stay committed to your goals when the people closest to you are in a totally different phase. 🌀

Fresh off a trip to LA with assistant coach Alexa—one in a cut, one in a build—Maddy dives into what it means to hold your own when others are in a different season. Whether it’s a partner, a friend, or your gym crew, staying in your lane can feel isolating or confusing.

🎯 The takeaway? You’re not off track—you’re on your own timeline. And that’s powerful.

🎙️ Tune in for raw insight, real stories, and strategies to stay grounded in your goals—no matter the season around you.
