In this episode of the Changeology podcast, I chat with Mackenzie Griffith, aka Coach Mac, a fitness and nutrition expert who takes a refreshingly different approach to health and wellness. Coach Mac challenges the traditional fitness industry norms–especially the popular “buckle down” mentality–and emphasizes sustainable, realistic habits that empower women to prepare their bodies to be ready for any adventure–and of course, to build strength, confidence, and long-term well-being too.
We dive into what makes Coach Mac’s philosophy stand out, how it differs from the mainstream "fitness industrial complex," and the practical steps people can take to break free from restrictive fitness mindsets. Stay tuned to the very end to hear about Coach Mac’s "Dial Method," a powerful framework for creating flexibility and balance in health routines.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by diet culture or confused by conflicting fitness advice–or like it simply doesn’t resonate with your goals to live life adventurously– this episode is for you. Coach Mac’s insights will help you redefine success in your health journey and create habits that truly fit your strong, wild, and unstoppable life.

🌟 How to break free from rigid diet and exercise rules
🌟 Why mainstream fitness advice often fails people in the long run
🌟 What the "Dial Method" is and how it helps create lasting change
