The Fit Without Obsession Podcast
I spent years stuck in the messy middle — not sick anymore, but definitely not free. Overthinking every bite, terrified of weight gain, chasing control, and calling it “discipline.” If you’re living in that space… this podcast is for you.
I’m Gena — ED-recovered, recovery-informed food freedom + strength coach, and a woman who has lived every chapter of the struggle: restriction, bingeing, body hate, perfectionism, and the long, uncomfortable climb back to trust. Now I help high-achieving women heal their relationship with food, rebuild confidence in their bodies, and get strong again — without slipping back into obsession or fear.
Inside The Fit Without Obsession Podcast, you’ll find the conversations I wish I had when I was trapped in guilt, anxiety, and all-or-nothing thinking. We talk healing, strength, body image, self-trust, and how to finally pursue your goals without losing yourself in the process. This is where freedom and results can finally coexist.
Whether you’re recovering from years of dieting, navigating quasi-recovery, or just exhausted from overthinking food… you’re not alone anymore. This show is your safe space to heal, grow, and build the strong, peaceful, joyful life you deserve.
If you’re ready to stop spiraling and start actually living — welcome home.

The Fit Without Obsession Podcast
I Didn’t Start Loving My Body Until I Stopped Chasing Skinny and Started Chasing Strong
For years, I thought the only way to love my body… was to shrink it.
I chased skinny like it was the golden ticket to confidence, worth, and finally feeling enough. But no matter how small I got, it was never enough. I was exhausted, anxious, and constantly calculating. Because chasing skinny isn’t really about the size—it’s about control, safety, validation… and a whole lot of fear.
In this episode, I’m walking you through the moment everything shifted.
When I stopped asking “How small can I get?”
And started asking “How strong can I become?”
✨ Inside this episode:
- Why chasing skinny never gave you the freedom you were promised
- What “chasing strong” actually means (and why it’s not just about lifting weights)
- The emotional & physical shifts that happen when you start fueling, resting, and respecting your body
- How to start rewriting your goals—from self-punishment to self-trust
- The exact mindset reframe that changed my entire relationship with food, fitness, and my body
This isn’t about giving up.
It’s about finally choosing a life over a look.
It’s about building strength—not just physically, but emotionally.
It’s about feeling powerful, present, and at peace in your body—for real this time.
