Live Transformed Podcast — Redefining What Health Really Means

The Live Transformed Podcast dives deep into what it truly means to build a stronger body, sharper mind, and more fulfilled life. Hosted by Coach Adam Kelley of Transformed Health Initiative, each episode blends evidence-based health and fitness insights with real-life transformation stories that challenge the way we think about success, discipline, and purpose.

This isn’t just about workouts and nutrition—it’s about who you become through the process.
We explore topics like sustainable fat loss, muscle building, stress resilience, faith, family, mindset, and the pursuit of excellence in every area of life.

Because living transformed isn’t about being perfect—it’s about becoming intentional, consistent, and grounded in truth so you can lead yourself first and live stronger for those who matter most.

Send us a text Chaos is the norm in our busy lives, and any fitness plan that only works under perfect conditions isn't realistic for long-term success. We need to build flexible systems that carry us through unpredictable circumstances rather than rigid rules that crumble when life gets messy. • Waiting for the "perfect moment" to start your fitness journey is a myth—over 80% of adults report feeling overwhelmed, and life is trending busier • Success comes from identity and structure, not w...
Send us a text Transformation isn't something you do—it's something you become. Today marks a pivotal shift as we rebrand from Win On Purpose to Live Transformed, creating alignment between our podcast, health coaching practice, and online community under one powerful banner. This rebrand isn't just cosmetic. It represents years of evolution in understanding what creates lasting health transformation versus temporary changes. Through my own journey—losing 120 pounds as a teenager, later batt...
Send us a text Ever felt like every “fresh start” ends the same way—two strong weeks, one bad weekend, and a quiet slide back to zero? We’ve been there. Today we unpack why all-or-nothing plans sabotage your progress and how to rebuild self-trust with a handful of simple anchors you can keep even when life gets messy. We break down the core problem behind yo-yo dieting: it isn’t weakness, it’s broken trust. Restrictive rules create short-term wins and long-term shame. Instead, we walk throug...
Send us a text We lay out a humane plan to rebuild health after years of neglect by dropping shame, rejecting all-or-nothing rules, and choosing small, flexible actions that fit real life. You get a four-step framework to restart with confidence and build self-trust that sticks. • why shame and regret stall change • how self-compassion improves consistency • the failure of all-or-nothing plans • the “always something” alternative • small wins that rebuild self-trust • a four-step reset: deci...
Send us a text We challenge the scale-first mindset and show how to measure progress that actually improves life after 40. From daily weight swings to body recomposition, mindset shifts, and lifestyle wins, we lay out a practical, multi-metric system for sustainable fat loss and stronger health. • the scale as one tool among many • why inches, photos, and strength tell the truth • daily weight fluctuations and what drives them • body recomposition explained in plain terms&n...
Send us a text Dieting hard and getting nowhere fast? We dig into why aggressive cuts and endless cardio backfire after 40—and how to build a plan that trains your metabolism to work with you instead of against you. Adam Kelley shares the clear, evidence-based approach we use with busy adults to protect muscle, keep hunger manageable, and make progress that sticks. We start by exposing the diet damage trap: sharp deficits lower resting energy expenditure, reduce spontaneous movement, and inc...
Send us a text Want the scale to reflect real progress—not lost muscle and a slower metabolism? We break down the three levers that decide whether your calorie deficit burns fat or strength: sleep, stress, and hormones. This is part two of our Fat Loss Over 40 series, and it’s packed with clear actions you can use today to change your results this week. We start with sleep, the most underrated fat loss tool. You’ll hear how short nights elevate cortisol, distort hunger hormones like ghrelin ...
Send us a text We bust myths about fat loss after 40 and show how muscle, hormones, sleep, recovery, and lifestyle load shift without stopping progress. We map the levers that still work—nutrition, strength training, daily movement, and mindset—and give a simple weekly challenge to start now. • real changes with age across muscle, hormones, sleep, and recovery • why metabolism doesn’t crash at 40 • how lower activity and muscle—not age alone—drive weight gain • protein targets that preserve ...
Send us a text The myth that travel means abandoning your fitness goals is one of the most persistent obstacles to consistent health progress. When we constantly cycle between "on plan" at home and "off plan" during travel, work trips, or family gatherings, we sabotage our momentum and results. The transformative truth lies in understanding that your health values don't change just because your location does. Your identity as someone who prioritizes movement, nutrition, and recovery travels ...
Send us a text The battle between cardio and strength training has raged for decades, but what if both sides are missing the point? After 30, our bodies begin a metabolic shift that changes everything about how we look and feel – losing up to a pound of muscle yearly while potentially gaining a pound of fat. This silent transformation explains why so many of us struggle despite doing "everything right." In this illuminating deep-dive, we uncover the science behind effective fitness for busy ...
Send us a text Ever wonder, “What’s the least I can do and still see results?” You’re not alone—and the answer is better than you think. The fitness industry glorifies more: more workouts, more sacrifice. But research proves otherwise. Just 150 minutes of moderate activity weekly can reduce disease risk by 40%, and 2–3 strength sessions a week builds muscle. It’s not about doing more—it’s about doing what matters consistently. That’s the power of the Minimum Effective Dose (MED) approach. We ...
Send us a text Transformation happens when you change who you are, not just what you do. Have you ever wondered why even the most perfectly designed diet plans eventually break down? The answer lies not in the meal plan—it's in your identity. When your behaviors consistently clash with how you see yourself, willpower inevitably runs out. This episode reveals why lasting health transformation happens at the identity level. Instead of asking "what should I eat?" or "how much should I exercise...
Send us a text Have you been fighting with food for far too long? Most adults aren't struggling because they don't know vegetables are good for them — they're struggling because their eating is reactive instead of intentional, their schedule is chaotic, and they're still using food as a reward or escape. The truth about eating like a grown-up is surprisingly simple. It's not about perfection or rigid rules; it's about making choices from a place of purpose. At THI, we teach our clients that ...
Send us a text The nutritional world often divides itself into rigid camps—those who swear by calorie counting and those who advocate for purely intuitive approaches. But what if the most sustainable path lies somewhere in the middle? This episode dives deep into the misunderstood tool of food tracking, exploring when it helps, when it hinders, and how to use it as a window rather than a cage. Food tracking has revolutionized how many approach nutrition, offering concrete data where guesswor...
Send us a text Have you been waiting to feel "ready" before committing to your health journey? That perfect moment of motivation might never arrive. Groundbreaking research reveals that motivation isn't the stable driving force we believe it to be—it's actually highly reactive, fluctuating with our environment and emotional state rather than aligning with our goals. This episode dismantles one of the most persistent myths in health transformation: the idea that motivation precedes acti...
Send us a text Ready to break free from the diet cycle forever? This episode reveals the transformative mindset shift that separates short-term dieters from those who achieve lasting health transformation. Most people approach health change all wrong - they chase outcomes instead of building identity, comply with restrictive rules rather than creating values, and hope willpower carries them through instead of designing systems that work. This flawed approach explains why so many experience t...
Send us a text Have you ever wondered why you can't seem to stick with your health goals despite your best intentions? The answer might surprise you. Duke University research reveals that a staggering 45% of your daily actions aren't driven by conscious choice at all—they're automatic habits shaped by your environment. This groundbreaking insight forms the foundation of this episode, where we explore why traditional diets fail and what actually creates lasting transformation. Traditio...
Send us a text Tired of feeling like your body betrays you every time you try to lose weight? You're not alone, and it's not your fault. The second installment of our "Why Diets Fail" series dives deep into the biological reality behind weight loss struggles. When you drastically cut calories, your body doesn't celebrate – it compensates. This isn't a lack of willpower; it's survival physiology at work. We examine eye-opening research, including how Biggest Loser contestants still had metab...
Send us a text Breaking free from the cycle of diet failure requires understanding what's really happening behind the scenes in your brain and body. Coach Adam Kelley launches a powerful four-part series that completely reframes how we think about sustainable health transformation. The truth about willpower might surprise you - it's not an unlimited resource you can simply tap into with more motivation. Psychological research reveals willpower functions like a battery that depletes throughou...
Send us a text The supplement industry has mastered the art of making us feel inadequate—convincing us that without their latest pill, powder, or potion, we simply can't achieve our health and fitness goals. But is that really true? Standing in the supplement aisle feeling overwhelmed isn't just a common experience—it's precisely what marketers are banking on. That confusion leads to impulse purchases that often do more for company profits than your actual health. In this evidence-based brea...
