Today's episode is a Q&A following our recent mini-series. Throughout the series, we explored why dieting is often the wrong move for high-achieving women, why higher calories can actually work better for progress, and what it looks like when you're ahead of the process instead of constantly chasing results.
Those conversations sparked a lot of thoughtful questions from listeners—and today, Sue and Alex are diving into them. This episode expands on the themes from the series and provides more clarity around how high performers can approach fat loss, nutrition, and training in a way that actually supports their lifestyle and long-term progress.
If you've been following along with the series and still have questions about how to apply these ideas to your own situation, this episode will help bring everything together.
