Redefining Strength Podcast
You train hard. You try to eat well. You stay disciplined. And yet progress slows. Energy drops. Fat loss stalls.
The Redefining Strength Podcast is for women who work hard on their health… but still feel like their body isn’t responding the way it used to.
Hosted by Cori Lefkowith, founder of Redefining Strength, this show helps you understand what’s actually happening inside your body — and what to do about it.
Cori is the creator of the STRONG System, used by over 10,000 women around the world to transform their bodies and build results that last.
Through real coaching insights and conversations with leading experts in women’s health, metabolism, and behavior change...each episode breaks down the science in a way that actually applies to real life.
Because the answer isn’t working harder. It’s learning how to work smarter so your effort finally creates the strength, energy, and confidence you’ve been chasing.
If you’re ready to stop starting over and start building a body you can count on, this podcast will help you get there.

FHP 410 - Stop Comparing
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There is one thing I think really is what success boils down to and I want to share why I think this…
It actually came off of seeing a variety of responses to posts over the last week and thinking about the commonality in some of the responses across topics.
It’s always interesting to see how people interpret the videos and tips you put out.
I find it especially interesting the range of responses I get - from victims to victors.
The victors always pat themselves on the back for making changes. Finding a way forward.
The victims always use those same life situations to state why they can’t move forward.
And then even if they do pull out a positive, it’s linked to a comparison about how something isn’t as good now as it used to be.
Life happens.
Changes happen.
We lose ground. Lose momentum. Things slide.
But comparing to what was, does nothing to move you forward.
I won’t lie to you even.
You may NEVER get back there.
But you can still move forward.
I think that’s always what I want to focus on.
It’s always what the underlying message of “it’s not your age,” “you can come back stronger from injury,” “menopause doesn’t mean you’re doomed to never have the body you want”….really is.
It isn’t that with age your skin won’t change. Or that it doesn’t become harder to build and retain muscle.
It isn’t that with an injury you may not have to avoid certain movements, especially to start.
It isn’t with menopause that what used to work won’t work anymore.
BUT with all of these things, you can always improve your current situation to move and feel your best.
It may be DIFFERENT than what was. But things can ALWAYS get better if we choose to find a way forward no matter what.
Life constantly throws us events and situations that can easily be seen as obstacles. Because they are.
But ultimately we have the CHOICE to view them as opportunities instead.
Only when we do this can we ultimately move forward.
And honestly, this is the biggest secret I see of people who are successful and get results.
So if I could give you one tip that will allow you to start this mindset of moving forward, it would be…
STOP COMPARING TO WHAT WAS.
