In today's episode, we're officially introducing the newest coach on the Physique Development team, Lexi!


Lexi's true passion lies in helping people who feel stuck in their bodies despite "doing everything right"—especially those navigating hormone imbalances driven by lifestyle stress, PCOS, birth control, gut issues, autoimmunity, and high-achieving burnout.


Her approach blends data, empathy, and real-world application, helping clients not only see results, but rebuild trust in their bodies along the way.


Sue and Lexi dive into her personal journey, how her engineering background shapes her coaching philosophy, and why her ability to combine structure with compassion makes her such a powerful addition to the team.


We're so excited to officially welcome Lexi to Physique Development, and we can't wait for you to get to know her!
