Episode Synopsis

 Dani sits down with Carol “Caz” Attieh, founder of Fit by Caz and the philosophy she calls Sweat Therapy—a boutique, community-first space helping women feel strong, confident and empowered. Caz shares how a post-baby reality check (after child #3!) and one great group class changed everything: from hating gyms to falling in love with lifting, training friends in the park, carting kettlebells through the Sydney CBD as a mobile PT, and ultimately opening her home studio that now serves ~50 clients.You’ll hear the truth behind sustainable results: empathy over ego, process over quick fixes, and why the best transformation is mental, not just physical. Caz gets real about mum-guilt, boundaries, time management (no clients during the school run!), and the power of mentors. She also shares a moving client story—Jenny’s 10-kg milestone by her 40th, and the confidence that came with it.TakeawaysA great trainer + class vibe + community can be the difference between quitting and thriving.Start small: one client becomes two—grow through word of mouth, patience, and consistency.Empathy & adaptability beat flashy promises; meet clients where they’re at.It’s never too late: neither Dani nor Caz were “sporty” at school—both began in their 30s.Boundaries fuel longevity: protect family time and energy so you can serve better.Mentors matter: ask questions, keep learning—no one knows everything at the start.Focus on how training makes you feel; the physique changes are a by-product.If you’ve ever thought “I’m too late” or “I don’t look the part,” this convo will change your mind—and maybe your career. Check out our Personal Trainer Certification Courseshttps://womensfitnesseducation.com.au/
