Episode 22 From Stiff to Strong: Mobility meets motivation

Send us Fan MailFrom Stiff to Strong: Mobility meets motivationIn this episode of Faded to Fabulous, the hosts welcome Emily Boynton, owner of The Fit in Derry, personal trainer, longtime student of women’s nutrition, and aspiring certified life coach, who shares how women’s health became central to her life after losing her mom to health issues. Emily describes The Fit as a co-ed, safe, supportive gym focused on strength, conditioning, mobility, flexibility, injury prevention, and programming that helps people move better. She discusses her past struggles with body image, why tying worth to looks is risky as standards change, and encourages women to “wear the bathing suit” and live without constant self-scrutiny. Emily explains why resistance training is non-negotiable (“badass and bone density”), emphasizes it’s relative and accessible, and offers strategies for moving from knowledge to action, managing discomfort, shutting down negative self-talk, and building self-trust through safe, purposeful challenge and fun, gamified workouts.00:00 Worth Beyond Looks00:21 Podcast Welcome00:50 Meet Emily Boynton02:27 What Makes The Fit Different04:00 Body Image Journey06:08 Wear The Bathing Suit06:35 Badass And Bone Density09:58 From Knowing To Doing12:16 Let It Be Hard13:18 Getting Back In14:22 Come As You Are16:16 Quieting Negative Self Talk17:06 Try Fail Grow18:28 Trusting Future You20:02 Coaching With Joy20:47 Games That Make Fitness Fun22:08 Gratitude And SendoffSupport the show✨ Join the Faded to Fabulous Community💝 Support Us!
