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 416 - You Don't Have To Deal With...
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I know I’ve personally been guilty of this even…
The comparing where you see someone else’s success in, well, really any aspect of life and you think…
“Yea well they didn’t have to deal with (insert thing you think is holding you back).”
But that is a self-limiting belief.
And honestly not beneficial as a thought in any way, shape or form.
It does nothing to move us forward and only reinforces the belief we are somehow unable to find a way forward.
But the simple fact of the matter is, life involves sacrifices no matter your situation.
And we each have our own priorities and values.
If we CHOOSE to bring something into our life, if we CHOOSE to make something a priority, we have to understand how it will impact other things.
And this isn’t a bad thing. There is no right or wrong to what we should or shouldn’t value or prioritize.
But each time we do put something first, we do automatically push other goals by the wayside.
And we can’t BLAME those things.
Instead we need to identify what truly matters to us and find ways to work around or balance the things we want.
We need to find ways to even adapt our values.
Often I hear…
“Well you don’t work 8 hours a day and then have to go home and cook for a family.”
A. You never truly know someone else’s situation to compare.
B. Ok so if you feel that work and family are priorities in your life and you WILL always put them first, instead of blaming them, what is something you can do to work AROUND them?
Sure you may have to sacrifice gym sessions at times. But then how can you steer into that and plan out something quick at home?
We have to remember we’ve CHOSEN what we value. What is a priority to us.
And to ever move forward with other goals lower in that list, we need to find a way to make them matter to the things we value most so we still find a way forward. And we even need to find ways to do the MINIMUM when these other things need to come first!
So how can we stop making the excuse that someone else doesn’t have to deal with something and instead embrace the priorities we’ve set and work around them to move forward?
