I'm Diane, and I'm here with my daughter Alysha (aka Eash Da Beast), and in this episode we're sitting down just 8 days out from her bodybuilding show - peak week is officially in full swing!

We're talking through what life really looks like right now in prep: the low energy days, carb thoughts taking over everything, shredded lettuce cravings, and the routines that come with getting stage-ready. We also break down what typically shifts this close to show day when it comes to food, cardio, water, and mindset, and why keeping things as consistent and simple as possible becomes the main focus.

We also get real about the day-to-day experience of peak week - sleep, sodium, cravings, and trying not to overthink every little change in the mirror. And of course, we still end up talking about post-show food dreams… because that's basically part of prep at this point 😅

If you're into bodybuilding prep, fitness journeys, macros, or just honest conversations about discipline and life in the grind, you'll enjoy this one!
