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!

Empower yourself to make these 3 lifestyle changes to manage your PCOS naturally
In today’s episode, Alisha Carlson dives into the misunderstood world of PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), revealing why it's more than just a reproductive disorder — it’s a metabolic issue, rooted in insulin resistance.
She breaks down how traditional advice falls short and why a holistic approach that includes strength training, smart nutrition, stress management, and lifestyle shifts is the real game-changer.
If you’re tired of band-aid solutions and ready to heal from the inside out, this is the StrongHer Way.
Key Takeaways:
- PCOS is often misdiagnosed and is driven largely by insulin resistance.
- Healing PCOS naturally starts with building muscle, balancing blood sugar, and reducing chronic stress.
- Nutrition matters: eat enough, fuel consistently, and prioritize quality foods over constant dieting.
- Stress is not just emotional—it’s biochemical. Chronic stress worsens PCOS symptoms and fuels inflammation.
- Walking after meals, strength training, and simple daily habits can radically shift your metabolic health.
- Healing your hormones is a journey—one rooted in partnership with your body, not punishment.
