Still following the fitness rules from your 30’s and wondering why they aren’t working anymore? Hilary is here to tell you: It’s time to break up with the punishing workouts, the rigid food rules, and the guilt-tripping voice in your head.

At 52, Hilary is in the best shape of her life. She’s leaner, stronger, and more energized than ever, and she’s doing it without tracking macros, counting calories, or wrecking her body with HIIT workouts. In this refreshingly real episode, Hilary breaks down the five shifts that helped her finally get the results she wanted, not just physically, but mentally and emotionally too.

From unlearning outdated fitness “rules” to adopting a mindset rooted in self-devotion (not self-discipline), she shares how tuning out the noise and tuning into her own body changed everything. You’ll hear about her exact lifestyle habits, how she makes working out something she actually enjoys, and why flexibility matters just as much as strength.

No shame, no extremes, no performative BS, just smart, doable shifts that honor where you are now.

 

Episode Highlights:

  • The real reason your old routines aren’t working anymore
  • Why pushing harder might be hurting more than helping
  • The mindset shift that changed Hilary’s entire approach to fitness
  • Her go-to workouts, food philosophy, and everyday habits
  • How to prioritize yourself unapologetically—at the gym and everywhere else
