In this episode, Sue and Alex look back on the nutrition, training, and mindset beliefs they once swore by—from what they thought eating healthy actually meant, to believing soreness, sweat, and the number on the scale were the best indicators of progress. They unpack where those ideas came from and what changed their perspective.Whether you're new to your health journey or have been at it for years, this conversation is a reminder that growth often starts by questioning what you thought you knew.Have questions for future episodes or a topic you'd like us to cover?
