Hey, I’m Alisha. A wife, mom, fitness/nutrition/lifestyle coach. I dieted for over a decade, losing and regaining the same weight over and over. I was not only chasing a number on the scale, but I was also trying to be everything to everyone, which only left me feeling more exhausted and worse about myself.
I finally realized that if I was going to show up as the wife and mom I wanted and find freedom in my health I needed to work on my relationship to food, exercise, my body, and myself. I learned about the power of changing our brain (aka our thinking) - and our behavior- through habits that supported the healthy lifestyle that I craved. And now I’m ready to share everything I’ve learned with you!

How to get over not feeling motivated to work out as a working mom
We’ve all been there—you know you should work out, but you just don’t feel like it.
Maybe you’re exhausted, busy, or just not seeing the results you want.
In this episode of The StrongHer Way, Alisha Carlson breaks down why we resist working out, how to reframe exercise to make it feel less like a chore, and simple strategies to get moving even when motivation is low.
Whether you’re a busy mom, struggling with consistency, or wondering if you need rest instead, this episode is packed with actionable tips to help you make fitness a sustainable part of your lifestyle.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why motivation isn’t the key to consistency—and what is
- How to fit workouts into a busy schedule without stressing about time
- The mindset shift that turns exercise from punishment into self-care
- Simple strategies to start moving (even on days you don’t feel like it)
