  • Ep 125: Is your Type-A approach helping or hurting you?
    Feb 10 2026

    In this episode, the ladies discuss where they were in 2016, they both touch on some recent injuries and how they're dealing with them, and they talk about how having a Type A personality can be a blessing and a curse - especially when your ambition leaves little time for celebration, rest, or positive reflection. The answer may lie in programming rest in our life just like we do in training.

  • Ep 124: Is AI going to take over coaching (and our brains)?
    Feb 3 2026

    In this episode, Ashleigh offers updates on her month-long Costa Rica residency, the ladies discuss more dopamine management, and they dive deep into AI as it relates to the current state (and future) of health coaching, training, and programming. And yes, they also answer questions about why you might not be seeing the progress you're expecting even though you're doing everything right with your nutrition and training.
