The Mental Side of Movement (ep 30)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/30

Thirty days. Thirty episodes. Thirty attempts to say out loud what I have been trying to make sense of privately for years. I knew this project would change something, but I didn’t know it would change this much.I didn’t know that simply talking about movement while actually moving would rewire the way I think about my body, my habits, and myself.I’m not exercising while recording this one, not really, although I am walking around the apartment with a resistance band around my legs because I think

Building Friendships Around Movement (ep 29)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/29

There is something I’ve never said out loud before, but it’s been simmering in the background for months. As I rebuild my strength, as I try new routines, and as I settle into this new phase of midlife, I am realizing that my relationships are shifting too. Not because of drama. Simply because my daily habits and priorities have changed so much that some friendships no longer line up with the person I am becoming.It feels strange to admit that out loud. But it also feels honest.💡 Transcripts,

Walking, My Lifelong Movement Joy (ep 28)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/28

Walking has always been my movement home base. Out of every type of movement I have tried in my life, walking is the one that has stayed with me. Through childhood, through illness, through injury, through all the shifts and surprises of midlife. Today I wanted to talk about that. Not the pain, not the diagnoses, not the setbacks, but the thing that has consistently brought me joy.💡 Transcripts, links and more: https://mybodycan.substack.com This is a public episode.

Frozen Shoulder and My Exercise Plans (ep 27)

2025/11/27

I didn’t expect frozen shoulder to shape my entire movement life. But here I am, years later, still noticing the aftershocks in my workouts, my choices, and even my confidence. Today I want to walk through what happened, what I learned, and why this experience affects the way I train now.Before I get into it, if you’re following along with my 30-day podcast challenge, thank you. This project has taken me through more emotions and memories than I expected, and frozen shoulder is one of the big

How Strength Training Improved Travel Days (ep 26)

How Strength Training Improved Travel DaysI did not expect my travel days to become a marker of progress in my strength journey, but here we are. Today I want to talk about what it actually takes, physically and mentally, to move countries with only a few suitcases and a body that is still learning how to be strong.Hi, I am Steph, creator of My Body Can. I am documenting my midlife strength journey after years of illness, injury, and wild hormonal fluctuations. I am doing a 30 day podcast challenge

Do I Dislike Cute Exercise Gear? (ep 25)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/25

I didn’t expect this to be the thing I uncovered during my 30-day movement experiment, but here I am: somewhere between dumbbell reps and editing my own voice for the 25th day in a row, discovering a weird little streak of resentment toward cute workout gear. And the more I heard myself say it, the more I realized I needed to sit with it instead of letting it float by like background noise.→ New here? I’m sharing 30 days of honest movement reflections as I rebuild strength in my 50s. Did I say

Exercise Progress Needs Tracking (ep 24)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/24

Planning is helpful but proof changes everything.Today I realized something big: I’ve been putting all my exercise plans into Google Calendar and assuming that was enough. It worked beautifully when I only had two workouts to remember, literally two things to track. I would open my calendar, see the workout, tap the link, and do the thing. Super simple. No friction. No thinking. Just show up and complete it.But now that I’ve expanded into multiple kinds of movement: fascia work, bouncing, strength

Rethinking Unspoken Exercise Rules (ep 23)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/23

I didn’t realize how many unspoken rules I had about exercise until I started breaking them. Accidentally at first, then intentionally, and now with a bit of curiosity. For most of my adult life, movement was supposed to look a certain way. Focused. Structured. Contained. Done in a particular room, in a particular order, wearing the “right” clothing, following the “right” exercises, and never—ever—multitasked.But the more I work on this project, the more I notice that none of those rules came from

Refining My Movement Routine... (ep 22)

2025/11/22

Today’s episode is a little different. I am deep into this 30 day podcast challenge and while most of this month has been about movement, balance, strength, and navigating my very midlife body, today I needed to step back and look at the bigger picture. One month equals a mindset shift. At least it does for me. It always has. And this year, more than ever, I am noticing the way that daily consistency reshapes how I think about movement, aging, and what I want my body to be capable of doing.I have

Is Endometriosis a Missing Link... (ep 21)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/21

There are days when a single Instagram reel hits harder than any workout ever could. Last night was one of those nights. I was scrolling in that half-distracted, half-exhausted state that often comes at the end of my day when a reel stopped me cold. It was someone talking about endometriosis, not in the usual “here are the symptoms” way but in a “your neuroimmune system might still be affected years later” way.Neuroimmune system.Not a phrase I’ve heard before.Not something any doctor has ever

When Rest Derails Your Exercise (ep 20)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/20

I recorded this episode while doing my very first fascia video, which already tells you the mood I was in. I was moving, stretching, wobbling a little, making noises I probably didn’t plan to record, but I felt alive. And in that exact moment, the phrase “just go home and rest” floated into my mind like an annoying ghost.Not because I needed rest.Because I’ve been told that phrase way too many times, and it has shaped my body far more than it should have.This isn’t medical advice. It’s just the

Movement That Brings Joy (ep 19)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/19

Today surprised me.I didn’t plan anything big; I just pressed play on a fascia movement video on YouTube because fascia has been on my “I want to try this someday” list for ages. Ten minutes in, I was so unexpectedly energized that I started recording this episode while doing the workout. (video sound muted, of course.)I didn’t expect to like it.I didn’t expect it to feel this good.And I definitely didn’t expect joy.💡 Transcripts, links and more: https://mybodycan.substack.com This is a public

My Updated Midlife Exercise Plan (ep 18)

2025/11/18

The messy middle of my movement experimentA few weeks into this workout overhaul, I hit a moment where I needed to stop, breathe, and actually look at what I was doing. I had just finished a workout, still sweaty, still energized, and all I could think was:What’s actually working here? And what am I pretending I can keep up with?This whole my Body can project is about the messy parts — the overreaching, the adjusting, the “I want to do everything” optimism followed by “nope, not sustainable”

From Appearance to Ability (ep 17)

2025/11/17

When I chose the phrase my Body can, I thought it was just a motivating name, a reminder that I could rebuild myself after years of illness, injury, and hormonal chaos. I liked the sound of it, the energy of it, the quiet encouragement hidden inside it. But I didn’t think too deeply beyond that. It was a spark I grabbed onto because something in me felt ready to shift.But something’s been nagging at me while I’ve been recording the social media videos on Instagram and YouTube: I don’t fully believe

Exercise Tools That Keep Me Active in Midlife (ep 16)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/16

One thing I’ve learned during this 30-day movement experiment is that the tools I actually use to support my body are not always the ones I expected. They’re not the fancy-looking things you see laid out on Instagram. They’re not the “ideal” gear that signals you’ve achieved some polished level of fitness.My tools are practical and simple. They’re chosen by a body that’s been through illness, injury, hormonal fluctuations, and the realities of building strength in my 50s.And honestly? I love

Finding Fitness Resources That Actually Fit My Life...

2025/11/15

There are so many movement resources online that sometimes choosing a workout feels harder than doing the workout. YouTube, Instagram reels, courses, programs… it all blurs together.But today, while searching for a simple standing stretching video, I noticed something I didn’t expect:I actually have a process for choosing exercise videos.A very loose, intuitive, slightly chaotic process — but a process nonetheless. And realizing that made something click. My whole approach to movement right now is

Adding Stretching Back Into My Exercise Routine (ep 14)

my Body can : putting myself back together again in... ·

2025/11/14

What’s the right ratio of stretching to exercise? How much, how often, and why is it so easy to forget about it entirely?That question came to me the hard way—through a massage. A very good one, actually. I treated myself to a foot massage yesterday, and the masseuse worked her way up my legs until she found a few knots that made her stop and say, “Wow, that’s really tight.” I laughed, because I knew it was true. But then she added, “You really need to stretch more and drink more water,” and I

Finding the Line Between Soreness (ep 13)

It’s raining outside, which feels fitting because my whole body aches today.

Things That Pop Up During My Workout (ep 12)

2025/11/12

There’s a difference between moving your body and being with your body.I realized that this morning when I decided to record not just my workout, but my thoughts while doing it.It sounded ridiculous at first—who wants to hear me pant and mumble through squats? But I was curious. What really happens in my head while I move?Turns out, a lot.💡 Transcripts, links and more: https://mybodycan.substack.com This is a public episode.
