When life gets overwhelming, do you double down on the habits that help you—or abandon them first? In this candid Twisted Tuesday episode of the F* It! Podcast, Amy Ledin shares two unfiltered walk-and-talk updates about food freedom, fitness setbacks, stress, and the power of keeping promises to yourself.
With Canadian Thanksgiving approaching, Amy reflects on the years she feared holiday meals, swapped favorite dishes for low-calorie substitutes, and worried about losing control around food. Today, she can prepare and enjoy the foods she loves without turning a single holiday dinner into a test of her worth.
She also opens up about a recurring forearm injury following recovery from a back injury, the steep learning curve of social media and working with coach Brock, and why walking, drinking water, and other manageable commitments still matter when motivation is low.
In a second update, Amy shares how thinly stretched she has felt while living with stage four cancer. Her central message: when circumstances are outside your control, focus on realistic actions that remain within it. Sometimes redefining success is necessary; giving up on yourself is not.
IN THIS EPISODE: Holiday eating without guilt; letting go of all-or-nothing food rules; staying present around food; injury recovery and the long game of fitness; learning new skills with patience; managing overwhelm; keeping small promises; and focusing on controllable habits during uncertain seasons.
Listen in, then share the episode with someone who needs the reminder that hard seasons do not have to mean giving up. Amy also invites listeners to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts and share it on social media.
