Resting Bliss Face Podcast

This show will serve the busy woman who feels overwhelmed by wanting to do ALL the things...you know - crush it a work AND at home, eat well while of course exercising regularly, look/feel her best in her jeans while having that post-facial glow 24/7.

    Limitations vs Opportunity

    Limitations vs Opportunity  In this episode of the Resting Bliss Face podcast, Meagan dives into one of the biggest things that keeps us from growing: the limitations we place on ourselves. She introduces the Law of Polarity, the idea that for every reason you have not to do something, there's an equally valid reason to do it. Whether it's investing in yourself, prioritizing your health, starting a new business, or simply trying something outside your comfort zone, Meagan encourages listeners to look beyond the excuses they've been telling themselves and ask what might be possible instead. Using personal examples, from skipping workout classes to putting off facials or other forms of self-care, Meagan shares how she realized she was the one creating the list of priorities. If we're the ones making the list, we also have the power to change it. Throughout the episode, she challenges common thoughts like, "I don't have enough time," "I can't afford it," or "Now isn't the right time." Instead of viewing these as fixed truths, Meagan offers simple mindset shifts that put the power back in your hands. For example, changing "I can't afford it" to "I'm choosing not to spend my money on that right now"creates ownership and reminds us that many of our decisions are exactly that, a choice. She also shares how outsourcing tasks like podcast editing and hiring a virtual assistant helped create more space and energy in her business, emphasizing that investing in support isn't about having everything figured out, it's about making room for the life and business you're trying to build. This episode is an invitation to stop operating from scarcity and start looking for opportunities instead. Growth is rarely comfortable, but the discomfort you're avoiding today may be the very thing that leads you to the next version of yourself.   Connect & Resources Follow Meagan on Instagram: @ItsMeaganFitzgereald  The Set Studio: @thesetstudionbpt Interested in working with Meagan one-on-one?

    What Are You Focusing On And Why?

    What Are You Focusing On and Why? In this episode of the Resting Bliss Face podcast, Meagan dives into a simple but transformative question: What are you focusing on, and why? The thoughts you choose to focus on every day have a powerful impact on your emotions, actions, and overall experience of life. Sharing a real-life moment from the sauna, Meagan reminds listeners that life isn't about being positive all the time. It's completely normal to feel frustrated, overwhelmed, angry, or discouraged. The goal isn't perfection, it's learning how to acknowledge those feelings and then find your way back to a more grounded, neutral, or grateful state. Throughout the episode, Meagan explores how our point of focus can either keep us stuck or help us move forward. She shares examples from coaching clients and everyday life, including business challenges, body image struggles, and the overwhelm that often comes with busy seasons of parenting and life. For business owners, this may mean shifting from thoughts like "This is so hard" to appreciating the opportunity to build something meaningful. For those struggling with confidence or body image, it may mean replacing criticism with gratitude for everything your body does for you. And for anyone feeling overwhelmed by life's demands, it can be a reminder that doing your best is enough. Meagan also shares several simple but powerful mantras that help her and her clients redirect their focus:   "I've got this."   "They get to be them, I get to be me."   "Thank you, body."   "We're all doing our best." This episode is a reminder that while we can't always control our circumstances, we can become more intentional about the thoughts we choose to return to, and those thoughts have the power to change everything.

    Your Greatest Asset

    You Are Your Greatest Asset: Investing in Your Mind, Body & Business In this episode of the Resting Bliss Face podcast, Meagan reflects on a peaceful Mother's Day weekend and the deep gratitude she feels after walking through seasons of motherhood that once felt incredibly heavy and overwhelming. Looking back at those harder years gives her a new appreciation for rest, growth, and the importance of taking care of herself along the way. Inspired by a recent consult call with a new client, Meagan dives into the powerful reminder that you are your greatest asset, and if you want to grow, evolve, and uplevel your life, you have to be willing to invest in yourself first. Throughout the episode, she challenges the mindset of "fighting for limitations." Whether it's saying you're too busy to move your body, too overwhelmed to prioritize your health, or not confident enough to go after something bigger, Meagan encourages listeners to notice the stories they keep reinforcing, and start choosing differently. Using examples from her Pilates studio, The Set Studio (@thesetstudionbpt), she talks about how movement, nourishment, and protecting your energy can completely shift how you feel in your daily life. She also shares how healthy habits don't have to come from restriction or perfection, but from wanting to feel good and support the version of yourself you're becoming. The conversation also expands into business and personal growth investments. Meagan opens up about hiring marketing expert Alexa Cauley, attending an expensive retreat in Boca Raton, and learning how to choose expansiveness instead of automatically choosing fear or scarcity, especially when the timing and alignment feel right. She reminds listeners that investing in yourself doesn't always have to look huge or glamorous. Sometimes it's the small daily choices: getting outside, moving your body, nourishing yourself well, protecting your peace, or finally saying yes to the thing that could help you grow. Meagan closes the episode by sharing ways listeners can work with her, including coaching opportunities and her favorite skincare products from Atmosphera Beauty (@atmosphera.beauty).

    How To Tune In & Love Your Body

    In this episode, Meagan shares the heart behind her coaching programs, Abundant Body and Abundant Business, and what "abundance" really means in a world that constantly tells us to be less, less hungry, less visible, less ourselves. She unpacks how so much of traditional body messaging pushes the idea that being smaller, eating less, and running on empty is the price we pay to feel "good enough." Abundant Body flips that narrative on its head. It's about choosing a fuller, more expansive way of living in your body. One of the most powerful shifts she highlights? Simply being able to look in the mirror without tearing yourself apart. Just seeing yourself and thinking, "I have a body." That alone is progress. There's also a clear rejection of obsessing over numbers, weight, calories, step counts, clothing sizes. Instead, Meagan encourages listeners to let go of all that noise and come back to what actually matters: how you feel in your body and what you think about it, not anyone else. She also introduces her F*ck the Numbers Journal, a downloadable journal designed to help you stop letting arbitrary numbers, the scale, your step count, the size of your favorite jeans, rule your life. It's about creating space to live fully and confidently as the woman you're meant to be. It's a bold, no-apologies kind of episode about reclaiming ownership of your body, releasing the grip of numbers, and deciding that your experience matters more than outside opinions.     Connect & Resources  F*ck The Numbers Journal: https://thesetstudio.myflodesk.com/journal  Follow My NEW Instagram: @itsmeaganfitzgerald  Check out The Set Studio: @thesetstudionbpt Interested in Atmosphera Beauty?

    How To Handle When You're Not "Fine"

    How to handle when you're not "fine" Host Meagan Fitzgerald, certified life coach, Pilates/Sculpt/Barre instructor, and studio owner, welcomes you back to the Resting Bliss Space Podcast. She shares a quick life and business update, including her shift to releasing episodes every other week as she navigates an exciting season of growth. Meagan kicks things off with a light pop culture moment, sharing her thoughts on the latest Summer House relationship buzz involving West Wilson and Amanda Batula, and, of course, her honest reaction. From there, she moves into the heart of the episode: a powerful lesson inspired by a real-life "momming" moment. After witnessing a mother repeatedly tell her nauseous daughter "you're fine," Meagan reflects on how often we unintentionally dismiss emotions, both in others and ourselves. She explores the importance of validating feelings, helping people (especially kids) feel seen and heard, and using grounding phrases like "I hear you" and "nothing has gone wrong." She then brings this lesson inward, encouraging listeners to notice their own tendencies to downplay stress, grief, sickness, or exhaustion. Instead of brushing things off, Meagan invites you to name what you're feeling and allow yourself to receive support. She shares a touching example of holding space for a client navigating deep family grief, highlighting how meaningful it is to simply be witnessed. To wrap up, Meagan gives a peek into what's ahead, launching a more coaching-focused Instagram for added privacy, expanding her coaching offerings, and partnering with skincare brand Atmosphera as part of a new social selling venture.

    Create Your Own Opportunities Part 2

    Create Your Own Opportunities Part 2: Decide, Follow the Call, and Become Her Now Megan is back on the Resting Bliss Face podcast and kicking off part two of the conversation about creating your own opportunities. She starts by sharing how grateful she is for the incredible response to last week's episode and continues the conversation by diving deeper into what it really takes to step into the life you want. In this episode, Megan talks about why growth almost always requires some level of struggle, and why waiting for permission or validation from others can keep you stuck longer than you need to be. Instead of waiting to be chosen, she encourages listeners to start choosing themselves. She walks through practical steps to begin creating opportunities in your own life: First, decide you're ready, even if you don't fully feel ready yet. Often the decision comes before the confidence. Next, follow the call, that idea or pull that keeps coming back to you. If it keeps showing up, there's probably a reason. She also talks about creating opportunities instead of waiting for invitations, whether that means pitching yourself, reaching out, or taking small but intentional actions toward the life you want. Megan shares the power of borrowing belief from people who already see your potential, and why finding supportive communities and expanders can completely shift what feels possible. The episode also explores nervous system regulation and fear, explaining how fear doesn't always mean something is wrong, it can also mean you're stepping into something new and meaningful. Finally, she discusses the importance of making an identity shift: acting as if you already are the person you want to become. By looking back at previous moments of growth and transition, you can gather real evidence that you're capable of becoming that next version of yourself.

    Create Your Own Opportunities Part 1

    Meagan is back behind the mic and reintroducing the Resting Bliss Face Podcast, sharing why she first launched it in 2019 as a fitness instructor and health coach with two little ones at home. Her goal then (and now) was simple: be a positive voice for women, remind them to take care of themselves, and help them expand what they believe is possible. Since those early episodes, life has grown in the best ways. Meagan welcomed a third baby and opened her own Pilates studio in her town, which just celebrated its two-year anniversary. In a world that often feels chaotic and loud, her mission remains the same: to hype you up, encourage you, and remind you that you're capable of more than you think. This episode centers around one powerful theme: creating opportunity instead of waiting for it. Meagan walks through her journey, from childhood dreams of working in Boston radio, to building a corporate career in mutual funds, landing a job at KISS 108, making the leap to New York radio, and choosing Equinox despite people warning her it was a "resume killer." That leap opened doors to roles at Rue La La and eventually being recruited by Yahoo. All the while, she was building her fitness career on the side, completing teacher training while working full-time, launching coaching programs, creating an on-demand platform during COVID (while pregnant and sick), and eventually opening her own studio after noticing a gap in her local community. She shares openly that she didn't have industry connections or family financial backing. What did she have? A willingness to bet on herself, over and over again. Setbacks weren't failures; they were lessons. Meagan also gives a few current updates: the studio is thriving, she's planning another retreat, teasing a new upcoming initiative, and has partnered with Atmosphera, a female-founded, climate-specific skincare company she genuinely loves. If you're curious, she invites you to reach out (no pressure at all) and mentions she'll include a link in the show notes!  She wraps up by sharing that she now has a team helping edit the podcast, with a goal of releasing episodes twice a month.

Learn key strategies to put your health first and not let holiday stress weigh you down.    Quotes • "The amount of adipose tissue, fat cells, on your body does not necessarily mean healthy or unhealthy." (2:07-2:15) • "My version of healthy is to not be sick. My version of healthy is to be energized and not stressed. It means having some time to find joy. That's what healthy is to me."

    Why setting a goal is actually important

    For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode93 I'm super excited to share Episode 93 with you. Between managing my kids' activities and juggling my own commitments, I found a moment to sit down and really dive into the topic of goals. And let me tell you, it's not just your typical New Year resolution chat. I've got some fresh, insightful perspectives on goals and what they really mean for us.   Topics Covered: Introduction to Goals: I kicked off the episode discussing the importance of goals, not just at the beginning of the year but all year round. Rejecting 'New Year, New You' The True Value of Goals: How goals are essential for providing focus and direction, rather than just being endpoints. Becoming Through Goals: A key theme was how the journey to achieving a goal is often more valuable than the goal itself. Marathon Running Example: I used the example of training for a marathon to illustrate personal growth and change that occur when pursuing a challenging goal. My approach to weight loss and financial goals.  Contrast in Approaches: I contrasted positive, love-led goal pursuit with negative, self-deprecating approaches and their respective outcomes. The Importance of Intention: The episode highlighted how the intention behind setting a goal significantly influences the journey and the outcome.   Links/Resources Mentioned: The Set Studio NBPT: https://www.thesetstudionbpt.com/ Collagen/CBD: https://meaganfitzgerald.greencompassglobal.com  1:1 Coaching Info: https://meagan-fitzgerald.mykajabi.com/1-1-coaching  The Set: https://meaganfitzgerald.arketa.fit  Abundant Biz: https://meagan-fitzgerald.mykajabi.com/abundant-biz   Connect with Meagan: Website: https://meaganfitzgerald.com/ Instagram: @megfitz.gerald

    A huge announcement for The Set!

    Oh boy, do I have some news for you! In the midst of my usual mom duties – dropping one kid at yoga, another at dance class, and managing the third – I realized I had to pause and share this monumental update with you all. It's a huge leap, one that has me equally terrified and exhilarated. I'm absolutely thrilled to announce that I am opening my own fitness studio! This is by far one of the biggest and most exciting announcements of my career. The studio, located in a picturesque downtown area with water views, is going to be a sanctuary for fitness and wellness. It's not just a fitness studio; it's a dream coming to life, a space that embodies my vision and passion for helping others through physical and mental well-being.  Topics Covered: Major Announcement: I'm opening my own fitness studio! It's a huge step in my career, and I'm both nervous and thrilled. My vision is to create a warm, cozy, and uplifting environment where everyone feels elevated and at peace. Diverse Fitness Options: We'll offer a variety of classes including Pilates, barre, barless barre, sculpt, and yoga. The studio's ethos is all about welcoming and celebrating all body types, shapes, sizes, and colors. I reflect on my journey from teaching fitness seven days a week to scaling down post-pandemic, and now, embarking on this new adventure. This move was inspired by a desire to create a space that aligns with my personal vision and vibe, different from what I've experienced before. Self Concept Shift: This new venture is reshaping my self-concept – from a life coach and fitness instructor to now a studio owner. Online Platform and Coaching Business My online platform and coaching business will continue alongside the studio, so no worries there!

    Balancing Life, Nerves, Mom'ing and Sleep Deprivation with Jessica Addeo

    For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode90 In this episode of the Resting Bliss Face Podcast, I was delighted to chat with Jessica Addeo, a seasoned occupational therapist and an adept nervous system coach. As we dove deep into understanding the workings of our nervous system and the importance of being regulated, Jessica broke down complex concepts in simple terms. We touched upon the significance of nervous system regulation, its impact on daily stresses, and how sleep deprivation can negatively impact this equilibrium. Jessica highlighted the role of our "window of tolerance" and how external pressures can force us out of it, causing reactions that might make us feel like we're failing as parents. But she assures us that it's all about our nervous system's capacity at that moment, not our abilities as caregivers. Additionally, we touched on the challenges and joys of motherhood, the essence of resilience, and the potential benefits of CBD in aiding sleep regulation. Topics Covered: Introduction to Jessica Addeo and her expertise as a nervous system coach. The concept of being regulated and what it entails. Role of the nervous system and its importance in everyday life. Introduction to the vagus nerve and its connection to various bodily functions. Understanding the window of tolerance and how it impacts our reactions. The challenges of maintaining regulation during stressful moments, especially as mothers. Recognizing the significance of resilience in the face of challenges. Emphasizing the importance of regulating our reactions as parents and its impact on children. The role of sleep in regulating our nervous system and coping with daily stresses. A discussion on CBD and its potential benefits for sleep regulation.

    For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode88   In this episode of the Resting Bliss Face podcast, I dive deep into the mindset shifts we need to make to achieve our goals. As someone juggling multiple roles in life, from being a life coach and fitness instructor to being a mom and wife, I understand how easy it is to feel overscheduled and overwhelmed. But when it comes to reaching our objectives, be it in fitness, business, or personal growth, it's crucial to focus on what we truly want rather than what we don't. I discuss the importance of digging deeper to find our real motivations, reshaping our thought patterns, and approaching our challenges with a fresh perspective.   Topics Covered: The challenges of juggling multiple roles and responsibilities. Common refrains we tell ourselves when trying to get back on track. The flaws in repeating patterns that haven't worked in the past. Delving into the mindset behind why we don't follow through on certain tasks. Importance of focusing on what we want instead of what we don't want. Recognizing and counteracting our brain's natural negativity bias. The interrelation between our thoughts, feelings, actions, and results. Examples of how to shift perspective to motivate ourselves effectively. My offerings for one-on-one coaching and an upcoming group coaching program. A shout-out to Green Compass CBD and its benefits.   Links/Resources Mentioned: Green Compass CBD- https://meaganfitzgerald.greencompassglobal.com/   Connect with Meagan: Website: https://meaganfitzgerald.com/ Instagram: @megfitz.gerald

Then, I'll share some personal stories about encounters with celebrities during my time working in the entertainment industry, from Katy Perry to Lady Gaga, Jonah Hill, and Fergie. Each of these interactions taught me valuable lessons that I'll pass on to you. Topics covered: Balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship during the back-to-school season. The demands and challenges of launching a coaching program or product. The choice to launch and its impact on your business and income. The real work of motherhood and managing meltdowns.

    Two takeaways from being judged so hard

    For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode86 In today's episode, I'm reflecting on the wild ride of summer, envisioning my dream lake house, and a comical "Pretty Woman" experience on Cape Cod, to embracing authenticity in the face of judgment and exploring the dynamics of value and pricing in business. We'll dive into the power of being our true selves, discuss the art of visualization, and uncover the transformative journey of Abundant Business.    Topics discussed: Reflecting on the whirlwind of summer Manifesting the shit out of my dream lake house Recounting a humorous "Pretty Woman" moment while shopping for a bathing suit. Lessons learned: Embracing authenticity in the face of judgment and being unapologetically oneself. Exploring value, and pricing, and not assuming what others are willing to pay for. Don't let someone else put a value you on YOUR offer Sharing more about the upcoming Abundant Business program, fostering growth and support.   Links/Resources Mentioned: Abundant Business: https://meaganfitzgerald.com/abundantbiz Walden Local: https://members.waldenlocalmeat.com/sign-up?referral=kyvl16jq  Collagen/CBD: https://meaganfitzgerald.greencompassglobal.com  1:1 Coaching Info: https://meagan-fitzgerald.mykajabi.com/1-1-coaching  The Set: https://meaganfitzgerald.arketa.fit  Connect with Meagan: Website: https://meaganfitzgerald.com/ Instagram: @megfitz.gerald

    Tuning out bad business advice

    For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode85 In today's episode, I go over some business advice I received that I definitely didn't follow. It can be difficult to discern what is good advice and what is garbage, but it's so important to do a gut check and see what you really feel before taking action. In different phases of my career, I've heard everything from negative opinions about my goals, to dismissive and some flat-out rude comments. It can be hard to ignore the bad, but there is so much good ahead when you do!  Topics discussed: I got into some health updates with my daughter's hip dysplasia. How I heard negative things about my career changes and choices and why I decided to ignore them. Choosing to create a positive attitude despite the naysayers. Knowing what's right for you doesn't mean that other people will embrace or understand it. Finding good advice among all the business noise. Working on your own personal growth and development will help you separate good advice from bad.

    One simple question to create an instant shift

    For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode82 In today's episode, I will talk about a big concept, achieving freedom. I want to help you feel free from guilt, shame, negativity, judging and even holding yourself back. I'm going to do that by having you ask yourself one simple question, "What are you making it mean?"   Topics discussed: Circumstances are factual, what you make them mean determines how you feel If the person working out next to you is giving it 110% you could choose to let it motivate you or intimidate you If you are stuck in comparison and judgment, you aren't free This can apply to food choices, business comparisons, weighing more than you expected Choose to evaluate and think on purpose See if there is another way to approach the thought process that gives you more freedom Even if something seems negative you don't have to make it mean something bad to you Links/Resources Mentioned: Collagen/CBD: https://meaganfitzgerald.greencompassglobal.com  1:1 Coaching Info: https://meagan-fitzgerald.mykajabi.com/1-1-coaching  The Set: https://meaganfitzgerald.arketa.fit Connect with Meagan: Website: https://meaganfitzgerald.com/ Instagram: @megfitz.gerald

    Step by step: How to change your thoughts

    For the full show notes and access to resources mentioned in this episode visit www.meaganfitzgerald.com/podcast/episode81 In today's episode, I'm talking about the hierarchy of thoughts and how they directly impact your results. This is also known as the self-coaching model. Thoughts create your feelings. Feelings drive your actions. Actions create your results. So when it comes down to it, your thoughts are in direct correlation with your results.  Topics discussed: My own limits when it comes to thoughts that create the results I want How I've reframed my thoughts and put them into practice Getting creative to get the results I want Making your own life phase align with the business you want to have Each step you take is putting you further up the ladder  Ways I can help you achieve your goal results Links/Resources Mentioned: Walden Local: https://members.waldenlocalmeat.com/sign-up?referral=kyvl16jq  Collagen/CBD: https://meaganfitzgerald.greencompassglobal.com  1:1 Coaching: https://meagan-fitzgerald.mykajabi.com/1-1-coaching  The Set: https://meaganfitzgerald.arketa.fit  Connect with Meagan: Website: https://meaganfitzgerald.com/ Instagram: @megfitz.gerald
