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!

Fat loss for moms: why cardio alone won’t cut it for moms 30+
In this episode of The StrongHer Way, Alisha Carlson breaks down one of the biggest fitness myths holding women back: the idea that more cardio equals more weight loss. Drawing from her own journey and the experiences of her clients, she shares why this “burn more, eat less” mindset often leads to burnout, muscle loss, and frustration especially as women approach their 30s, 40s, and beyond.
Alisha explains how hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause shift how our bodies respond to exercise and why strength training becomes the most powerful tool for maintaining metabolism, confidence, and long-term health.
You’ll walk away understanding:
- Why cardio alone won’t change your body composition
- How under-eating and overtraining can slow your metabolism
- The science behind building muscle and balancing hormones
- Practical ways to fit strength training into mom life
- How embracing your identity as a strong woman can change everything
Whether you’re a busy mom trying to lose weight, feel stronger, or find balance, this episode will help you shift from calorie-chasing workouts to purpose-driven training that supports your body and your life.
