Fueling Endurance Sports Without Sacrificing Recovery w/Amy Jordan, LCSW and Sierra Siebenlist

Is training for a marathon, long-distance ride, or endurance event without compromising eating disorder recovery?In this episode, we’re joined by Amy Jordan, LCSW, and Sierra Siebenlist to explore the realities of endurance sports, intentional fueling, and navigating movement during recovery. We discuss common misconceptions about endurance racing, why “surviving” an event isn’t the same as thriving, and how consistent fueling can dramatically improve both performance and well-being. Amy and Sierra also share practical strategies for runners and cyclists, along with honest conversations about readiness, community support, and balancing training with mental health.Connect with Amy and Sierra: Amy JordanPeak Wellness Therapy: https://www.peak-wellness-therapy.com/ @peakwellnesstherapy: https://www.instagram.com/peakwellnesstherapy/ Sierra Siebenlist@smackridesbikes: https://www.instagram.com/smackridesbikes/ @oliverwinerycyclingteam: https://www.instagram.com/oliverwinerycyclingteam/ Grab your Summer Movement Series Bingo Card: https://stopcollaboratelistenpod.substack.com/p/summer-movement-series-2026-kickoffWhat we talk about:Why endurance sports require more fuel than most people realizeHow to fuel before, during, and after long rides and runsThe difference between exercising in recovery and exercising from an eating disorderWhy intentionality matters when returning to movementHow community support can improve both recovery and trainingPractical fueling tips for endurance athletesRate & Review:If you loved this episode, share it with a friend and leave us a 5-star review — it really helps us reach more folks!Connect With Us:JOIN OUR NEWSLETTER: https://stopcollaboratelistenpod.substack.com/IG: @stop.collaborateandlistenpod
