#48: Patty Graham Fitness Coach: Fit Mom Over 40!

In this episode I have a very honest and real conversation with Patty Graham, a fitness coach who raised three kids before she got started on her own fitness career and went on to become a trainer. Patty shares her struggles with weight & body image and how difficult she found it as a new mom trying to get into an exercise routine and eat healthy. Now Patty specializes in working with mom's over 40 who have school-aged kids start moving their bodies through strength training (or anything they can make time for) and prioritizing the right foods to feel good and healthy.    Resources  WAITLIST OPEN: The Cravings Code Feb 2024: Reduce cravings & overeating by up to 70% & prime your mindset & metabolism to naturally eat fewer calories & sustainably lose weight.   Patty's email contact Patty's website   Timestamps   (00:00:53) - Meet Patty Graham, Fitness Coach!
