from If The Jeans Fit: Learn To Love The Woman In The Mirror · host Shaquelle Falon
In this deeply personal episode, I open up about my own fitness journey: from a prediabetes scare that pushed me to lose 70 pounds, to the grief of losing my mom, facing mental health challenges, regaining weight, and finally finding peace in a balanced lifestyle.This isn’t just another “before and after” story — it’s about the in-between. The messy, human part of healing, growth, and grace.I also share the five lessons I’d tell my younger self if I was just starting my fitness journey. (and anyone just starting their fitness journey):Whether you’re restarting, rebuilding, or just trying to find your rhythm again, this episode will remind you that balance, not perfection, is the real goal.Connect With Shaq:Get a Copy of Shaq’s Book: Motion Is MedicineSign Up For Shaq’s NewsletterInstagramFacebookBlogWebsite This is a public episode.
