podcast is back (+ a giveaway!)

Hi from Tucson! Exciting news today: the podcast is back! I took a little bit of a spring break to get my creative mojo going, and wanted to take some time to narrow down the type of content I wanted to provide. I didn’t expect it to grow as quickly as it did (thank you!!!), and wanted to make sure I was giving you the best content possible. I took a couple of months to brainstorm, interview guests, and relaunch with a more strategic vision.

So, here we are!

I’m very excited for the newest episode because I’m chatting with my good friend and macro coach, Emily Field, RD. Emily is extremely knowledgable, down-to-earth, and I love chatting with her. You can check out the podcast notes + a full transcript of the episode here. 

Exciting news: Emily is going to be teaming up with me for this year’s Summer Shape Up! We start the party on June 24, and she’ll be providing the meal plans, grocery lists, and macro counts for your nutrition goals. 

To join in, make sure you’re signed up to my newsletter. This way you’ll be sure to get all of the info first!

    Yay for the podcast making a comeback!! I have no input on future guest or content cause I love hearing everything you’ve put out so far. Can’t wait to hear the newest episode on my next run. Happy summer Gina!

  11. Crystal on June 5, 2019 at 8:01 pm

    I love your podcast and am so glad it’s taken off like this!
    Some topics I’d love: health at every size/body positivity, dealing with gym anxiety, current food and diet trends (I think you already do this but I enjoy reading and listening), meditation/mindfulness for kids.

  14. Britt on June 5, 2019 at 8:06 pm

    A meditation podcast would be great!

  15. Melissa on June 5, 2019 at 8:23 pm

    I’d love a podcast episode about strength training- why it’s important, how often to strength train v. cardio, how to build lean muscle v. bulky muscle.

  16. Emily S on June 5, 2019 at 8:30 pm

    An episode about prenatal fitness would be awesome!

  19. Hayley on June 5, 2019 at 9:02 pm

    Would love to hear about getting back in to shape after time off from the gym. Not in the usual “take it easy” kind of way – but past the standard conversation.

  20. Kel on June 5, 2019 at 9:21 pm

    Hope you are having fun on your cruise! I would love to hear something geared towards coping while your partner/spouse it deployed.

  21. Kel on June 5, 2019 at 9:22 pm

    Hey Gina, very excited for the podcast to come back! Would love to hear more about kid stuff like dealing with sleep issues/ food/ exercise. I love when you talk about these things and I think a lot of us moms can relate. Thank you for all you do!

  24. Claire on June 5, 2019 at 9:48 pm

    Would live to hear more about the behind the scenes of blogging and how you can make a living off of blogging!

  25. Blake on June 5, 2019 at 9:50 pm

    Yayyy! So happy it’s back! Never leave us again – k? Thanks! Just kidding – I know you have a family to take care of

    Topics: hormones, being a successful entrepreneur, beauty counter business (what you’ve learned, how to sell and not be sales-y)

    I’d so love if the podcast was available on Spotify since that’s where I listen to podcast. The user interface is much easier than Apple podcast. Sorry, Apple!

  26. Blake Showalter on June 5, 2019 at 9:52 pm

    I may subscribed in the breaker app – does that count? I don’t use apple podcast or stitcher.

  27. Randi on June 5, 2019 at 10:03 pm

  31. Kary F on June 5, 2019 at 10:19 pm

    I have a shoulder impingement and just learned a lot about how to strength train with a trainer. It would be neat to hear some other views on how to properly modify workouts and find the best workouts to improve injures/issues.

  32. Julia G on June 5, 2019 at 10:26 pm

    I’d love to hear a podcast about intermittent fasting.

    So excited you’re back! I saw it pop up in my podcast notifications and it made me so happy. I subscribe!

  41. Stephanie Woods on June 5, 2019 at 11:31 pm

    I’d love to hear about how you deal with lack of motivation once you get the the gym. Because of childcare I have easy motivation to get there – typically my kids fight with each other so the option to let someone else referee is everything. But sometimes after I drop them off I feel so tired and completely lack motivation to really go hard at the workout. I’ll do one round of a circuit and decide I’m not feeling it. Then I jump around randomly doing other exercises and I think it boils down to lack of motivation. Do you have days like that?? How do you push through?

  42. Katie Gurwell on June 5, 2019 at 11:42 pm

    I’d love to learn more about intermittent fasting, too!

  43. Teresa L. Eskew on June 5, 2019 at 11:51 pm

    Welcome back.
    I would like to have you talk about how to mentally come back to running or exercise after a long time off due to injury. It can be tough to accept not being able to get back to your old fitness level quickly or even ever.

  44. Cynthia Fudzinski on June 6, 2019 at 12:02 am

    I am so excited you are back with your podcast. Future guest post: Greg Renfrew. I also would love to hear about the amount we should exercise everyday/week and what amount (strength/cardio) is beneficial.

  45. Emily A on June 6, 2019 at 12:06 am

    Intermittent fasting!

  46. Diana on June 6, 2019 at 1:15 am

    I’d love to hear an episode about budgeting and eating healthy while on a tight budget!

  47. Mayacook on June 6, 2019 at 1:18 am

    Do glad you’re back ! Though you alteady tackled it, I’d love to hear about hormones when approaching 40…

  48. Olviya on June 6, 2019 at 1:57 am

    Welcome back! I’d love to hear about how to get back into working out after taking a break. When I started working out again after having my son, I went to hard on myself and got burned out.

  49. Olviya on June 6, 2019 at 1:57 am

    I rated your podcast 5/5 🙂
