Femme Cyclist Podcast

Are you pushing hard on the bike but still feeling flat, fatigued, or just... off? There's a good chance you're biking on empty — and you might not even know it.

In this episode, I sit down with Kyla Channell, a degreed sports nutritionist to chat about iron and Vitamin D deficiencies, other supplements actually worth taking, how to figure out your macro targets, and other nutrition mistakes that might be quietly tanking your performance.

Lisa Congdon is one of my favorite people to follow online. Her colorful art, love for bikes, and bravery in speaking up for causes she believes in are all deeply inspiring to me.
At 58, Lisa is a shining example of what's possible in the second half of our lives. She started riding bikes consistently in her 40s and didn't start racing until her 50s. 
In this podcast episode, we discuss what drew Lisa to endurance racing, how working with a coach transformed her relationship with cycling, and why she believes older women are uniquely suited for long-distance events.
We also discuss why Lisa chose to show up as her whole self online—art, cycling, activism, and all—and how speaking out about her values has actually grown both her following and her opportunities, not diminished them.
