Welcome to another week with Your Big Sister! I am so excited to introduce my coach and IFBB Pro Elenoa McCabe! After a solid year of considering taking my love and passion for training to a competitive level, I finally took the leap of faith, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be going through all of this for the first time with Noa! In today’s episode, we talk about what the prep process looks like to get onstage, the misconceptions surrounding bodybuilding, and Noa’s experience with building her coaching brand with Team Mihaly. Her energy is so infectious and I’m really blessed to be able to introduce the very person I manifested to kickstart my journey with bikini bodybuilding.HAPPY MONDAYLove,Your Big Sister@yourbigsisteratx@miampowelll@noamccabe_ifbbpro 

The Powell sisters are back! Well 3 out of 4 of them. Emma, Amelia and I are back together in the studio and this week we pulled out one of my favorite games "We're Not Really Strangers" - a fun card game that had us laughing so hard our cheeks hurt, but were also able to form some meaningful conversation out of it too! Whether you're in the car driving or getting ready for your day, this episode will brighten your mood. Happy Monday!Love,Your Big Sister@yourbigsisteratx@miampowelll@emmapowellll@ameliannepowell

Happy One Year to my love, Your Big Sister! Thank you everyone who’s tuned in, shared an episode with a friend, reposted on social media and those that have reached out with encouraging, positive feedback and support. Today’s episode is a recap on my Christmas break, starting the new semester, and opening up with my mental battle regarding resolutions, setting goals for myself, and how I’m trying to facilitate meaningful change stemming from gratitude and positive reflection and not from the dissection of all things “wrong” in my life. There’s always so much to be grateful for, despite the adversity we face in our relationships/every day life, so it’s important to be reminded of that, and keep that truth in the front & center of our minds. Happy anniversary YBS. Cheers to a New Year and the continuation of growth, love, and gratitude💗

We’re coming to the end of the year and as we wrap up 2022, I’ve been taking some time to reflect on my fitness journey over the past two years. This episode I wanted to break down the biggest ways I’ve seen myself evolve mentally and physically in relation to working out starting in 2021 to this year; I also highlight what my goals are for myself looking into 2023 and the ways in which I really want to challenge my growth. Happy Monday <3Your Big Sister@yourbigsisteratx@miampowelll

Happy (rainy) Monday! As we all know, the holiday season is upon us. For some, it is the highlight of their year, for others it might be overwhelming, and for a lot of us, it's somewhere in the middle. This episode, I offer up some helpful reminders to help you prepare for some potentially stressful situations that can inherently affect our family dynamics. Regardless of where you are this year, I hope you find this episode reassuring--an encouragement to be mindful of your energy in this holiday season, now and always <3Love,Your Big Sister@yourbigsisteratx@miampowelll

Happy Monday! For this week's episode, I have my sister Emma back on the pod so we could share our family's homeschooling experience with 8 kids growing up. There were struggles as well as highlights so we discuss which elements from that period of our lives helped us adjust to when we enrolled in public school and how it also influenced our dynamic with our parents as well as each other.  There has been many times when I've wanted to bring more context to past episodes from that period of our lives so I figured it was time to give my listeners some insight to our family while we were homeschooled. I hope you all enjoy!Love,Your Big Sister

Happy Monday everyone! This week on Your Big Sister, I was inspired by a post that highlighted how the quality of our lives are directly linked to the quality our habits, and it fueled me to want to break down the fundamentals that I think are essential to contributing toward a healthy lifestyle, mentally, emotionally & physically. Here’s your gentle reminder that it’s never too late to reflect on what is or isn’t serving you any longer, and make adjustments where you need to take care of you❤️ Love, Your Big Sister

This week, my good friend Esther--from Girls On Fire--stepped into her big sister role for me & read my tarot cards! She reminds me that it’s okay to not feel at 100% all the time, but encourages me to not forget that you are your own main character and anything you imagine having is yours to grab! Happy Monday :)Love, Your Big Sister@yourbigsisteratx@miampowelll@girlsonfireatx@estherfitzz
