Episode 355: Beth Wilkes Feraco's Real Talk on Health, Fitness, Sobriety, and Social Media

Are you sick of extreme diets, unnecessary restrictions, and the constant fear-mongering in the wellness world?  In today's episode of The Habits & Hustle Podcast, I chat with Beth Wilkes Feraco, a strength and nutrition coach who's cutting through the crap and keeping it real. Beth's refreshing, no-nonsense approach to health and fitness is exactly what we need more of on social media. Our conversation delves into the fact that consistency beats intensity every time. Instead of chasing the latest fads or pushing yourself to the brink of exhaustion, focus on building sustainable habits that you can stick with for the long haul. It's not about being perfect, it's about making progress. Beth gives insights on everything from intermittent fasting to the importance of walking. Her story of overcoming alcoholism and disordered eating to build a thriving online coaching business is truly inspiring.  At 42 years old, Beth Wilkes Feraco was 180 pounds and deep in an alcohol addiction. In the summer of 2015 she quit drinking and started running and weightlifting. Through her own recovery, she decided to help people lose weight, get strong, and accomplish things they never thought possible!
