2025 Her Time Wrap Up: Highlighting the Big Topics Covered in 2025

Today I’m taking a step back to reflect on our very first full year of Her Time and walking you through the biggest themes, conversations, and lessons we covered together in 2025.From nutrition and training myths to recovery, mindset, and some topics that aren’t always easy to talk about, this episode is a year-in-review designed to help you connect the dots and revisit the episodes that mattered most.Here’s what I break down in this wrap-up:Nutrition fundamentals we kept coming back to—hydration, reading nutrition labels, pre-workout fueling, and supplementsTraining myths I hear all the time working with teenage girls—and why lifting heavy, prioritizing recovery, and ditching “more cardio” thinking mattersRecovery as a foundation, not an afterthought—sleep, hydration, nutrition, and the tools that actually make a differenceGuest conversations on the rise of girls flag football and why mindset coaching is becoming essential for youth athletesTough but important topics like early sport specialization, caffeine and energy drinks, and the pressures young athletes are facingConversations around the menstrual cycle, the female athlete triad, and why understanding cycle phases matters for performance and long-term healthThis episode is part reflection, part roadmap. Whether you’re a parent, coach, or athlete, my goal is to help you see how all of these pieces—nutrition, training, recovery, mindset, and health—work together to support a healthier, more sustainable sports experience for girls.As I look ahead to 2026, my mission stays the same: to be an advocate for teenage girls and to keep having the conversations that truly matter, even when they’re uncomfortable.If you’ve listened all year, thank you. And if you’re new here, this episode is a great place to start.--Links & ResourcesYou can purchase The Teenage Athletes' Nutrition Journal on Amazon. https://a.co/d/4lRdIAFMore information about The Teenage Athletes' Nutrition Journal can be found at www.teenageathletesnutritionjournal.com.To receive 15% off you purchase at TD Impact Nutrition go to www.tdimpactnutrition.com and use the code: STACK15 at checkout.Connect with me:Instagram: @coachsarahstackFacebook: Coach Sarah StackWebsite: www.coachsarahstack.comEmail: [email protected]
