Description

In this episode, Joan shares the real story behind Fit Zone - our online live virtual fitness membership. From stroller workouts to community-center classes to the thriving virtual strength community it is today, the focus has always remained the same - empowering women to get strong inside a caring community. She speaks directly to the challenges midlife women face with staying consistent, and why motivation alone will never be enough.

Joan also walks listeners through two versions of their morning - the one that leaves them feeling behind, and the one that sets them up to feel strong, grounded, and proud - illustrating how the right structure, support, and community change everything. She reveals what makes Fit Zone different from random online workouts and why its combination of strength training, mobility, intentional rest, accountability, and connection creates sustainable success.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why consistency feels harder in midlife - and why it’s not a willpower issue
• The heartwarming story behind how Fit Zone got its name
• How Fit Zone grew into a powerful virtual community for midlife women
• What makes Fit Zone more effective than YouTube workouts or apps
