When your body is breaking down, how do you continue to show up with power and purpose? In this inspiring episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Fitz Koehler—a cancer survivor, fitness expert, and fierce advocate for living fully, no matter what life throws your way.

Fitz shares her journey from diagnosis to recovery, and how she used fitness not just as a physical outlet, but as a mental and emotional anchor. She and Lyndsay discuss the importance of self-examination, the value of integrating Western medicine with holistic care, and why small, intentional shifts can lead to significant, lasting results.

They also dive into the importance of community, storytelling, and creating space for both grit and grace in the healing process. Fitz opens up about her new book and podcast, both of which were created to inspire others to move their bodies, take control of their health, and find joy even in the most challenging seasons.

This episode is a powerful reminder that you don’t have to wait for perfect circumstances to start prioritizing yourself. You can choose to fight. You can choose to feel strong. And you absolutely deserve to feel good in your body again.

Tune in if you're ready to take your power back—one breath, one rep, one step at a time.
