Do you struggle to fit in exercise? Are you telling yourself there’s never enough time to exercise? Not having time to go to the gym or get in a run is a common problem many women have when they think about wanting to improve their fitness. Doing it all and doing stuff for everybody else is much more important than you taking time for yourself to workout.

I’m joined by Lucy-Anne Carney who is sharing her personal story of transformation from a demanding corporate career to becoming a bodybuilder, and what it taught her about having a clear goal and prioritising making it happen. Lucy now uses what she learned to help other women balance motherhood and their wellbeing through regular exercise.

The conversation explores the societal pressures and responsibilities that hold women back from prioritising their own health and wellbeing, and offers tips on building habits and overcoming guilt. Lucy encourages you to prioritise movement for your future self and your children, and to do so by building healthy habits that are sustainable in the long term.

In our conversation today we talk about:

Incorporating movement and exercise into our lives, even with demanding careers and family responsibilities.
The societal pressures and responsibilities often hold women back from prioritising their own health and wellbeing.
How building habits and overcoming guilt are key to making time for exercise.
Movement is key to maintaining good health and longevity.
Knowing that your habits will teach your children the value of taking care of themselves.
Learning how to prioritise and delegate in your family to make time for exercise and self-care.
Knowing your why and staying committed to your goals can help you resist temptations and stay on track.
Lucy’s 3 tips to make time for exercise through meal prepping, planning family meals, and finding ways to move that you enjoy.
