Host Lisa DuPree shares a real and honest check-in just two weeks before stepping on stage for her first physique competition in the Fit Model category. She talks through some of the challenges of the final stretch, the mental fatigue that comes with repetition, and how small, intentional changes, like a new playlist or different seasonings, are helping her stay engaged and consistent.
She also reflects on self-talk, confidence, and choosing to do hard things to build the kind of life she wants heading into her 60s. Lisa gives a quick peek into launching her gluten- and dairy-free bakery, Divine Dough, in the middle of prep. This episode is a reminder that progress doesn’t always look exciting, but it’s built in the everyday choices that keep you moving forward.
