From BBG to 40FIT: The Journey That Changed Everything

Episode 1: Nobody Warned Us About This Welcome to the very first full episode of 40FIT: The Podcast. In this episode, Nikki and Leanne share the stories that brought them into the world of health, fitness, accountability and coaching, and how those experiences eventually led to the creation of 40FIT. From the early days of the BBG community and fitness Instagram to navigating weight gain, perimenopause, motherhood, confidence and changing bodies, this is an honest conversation about the realities many women experience but rarely talk about openly. We also discuss: How Nikki discovered the power of accountability through the original BBG community Leanne's journey through early perimenopause and a hysterectomy in her late 30s Why both of us became passionate about supporting women over 40 The social media messages that leave many women feeling confused and overwhelmed Why gaining weight in your 40s is often far more normal than people realise The simple things that still matter most when it comes to fat loss How 40FIT was born Plus: Nikki's perimenopause tea-making disaster Wet shorts, running and a surprisingly effective hack Our current obsessions, icks and recommendations The best piece of advice we've heard this week Mentioned in this episode BBG (Bikini Body Guide) by Kayla Itsines The importance of accountability and community Protein, strength training and consistency Why social media often overcomplicates fat loss for women over 40 We Want To Hear From You Have a question, story, win, struggle or topic you'd like us to discuss on the podcast?
