Create Your Shape with Jenny the Nutritionist

Living a bold, bad ass, and truly authentic life is what everyone is after. However, we sometimes get stuck in the circle around us that doesn’t align with where we’re going, a belief from others of what we “should” be doing, and or are unsure how to become this version of ourselves we’ve envisioned.
Today I interview Kelly, who is a coach and founder of the Bad Ass Moms group. She walks us through the first few steps of this process and gives us tools we can start implementing. When it comes to living a fitness lifestyle, it does require being bold and dreaming big. This discussion helps guide us and normalize the obstacles that comes with that. Enjoy!
Bio:

With her infectious gratitude and energetic team-captain vibes, Kelly is the founder of Badass Moms. In her coaching work she leads the signature group program Badass Moms Club, custom women’s workshops, and deep connection sessions in the surf and out on the trails. Kelly is a human catalyst: helping you relight that spark of confidence & fun when you’re feeling lost. In a world telling women that selflessness is the epitome of womanhood, asking for what you want (in ways big and small) is a feminist rebellion that will change your life and relationships.

An Integrative Life Coach since 2020 and Change Management professional for a decade, Kelly is a graduate of Harvard University and recent transplant to sunny Santa Cruz, California

Want to build muscle but worried about looking too bulky? You’re not alone—I hear this concern all of the time from my ladies who love to lift heavy weights. And unlike the usual "weights don’t make you bulky" response, I actually get it. As someone who wants muscle in certain areas while maintaining a feminine look, I know there’s more to the conversation.

In this episode, I break down the three common "bulky" looks women may fear and dive into the five key factors that influence them—genetics, muscle placement, body fat distribution, body part ratios, and overall muscle mass. There's also one more bonus factor that gets overlooked you’ll want to consider. You'll learn how to tailor your training and nutrition to achieve the strong yet feminine physique you want, with a fresh perspective on the "bulky" topic that goes beyond just muscle size.

Welcome to the Women's Health Series! We're going beyond our usual focus on nutrition and fitness with five special guest interviews covering a range of holistic health and well-being topics.
In this episode, Dr. Morgan MacDermott discusses key factors to prepare us (especially high-achieving females) for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I love how she keeps it real while giving helpful insights and tips beyond what a typical clinical setting would provide or acknowledge.
Dr. Morgan is a rising leader in women’s reproductive health committed to helping modern mothers transform their daily struggles into stepping stones toward a more supported, balanced, and confident state of being. In a broad sense, she believes that the health of the mother is the health of the community, and it is imperative we treat her as such.

As a licensed Naturopathic Doctor and mother of four young children, she blends functional medical expertise, clinical skill, and first-hand experience to help women navigate wellness for themselves and their families.

She is the founder of Milk MedicineTM, a comprehensive online community of educational resources guiding women through the many transitions of motherhood - from pregnancy, through birth, and throughout postpartum. Dr. Morgan co-hosts the Healthy as a Mother podcast with Dr. Leah Gordon, a weekly educational conversation around becoming and being a mother.

I just put on 6lbs, mostly of muscle in my 6 month build phase. (Just shared my progress photos on my Instagram @jennythenutritionist
The first 3 months I recompped, and I'll explain why I was able to do that. the last 3 months was building new muscle. I worked up to 2,400 calories 350g of carbs and I'm only 5'1.
Now I'm primed for a nice deficit phase. But first, in today's episode, I'm breaking down the big changes I made, my macros, and some challenges I ran into.
[P.S. If you are listening to this live, Create Your Shape is currently open for enrollment! Learn and implement your own build and deficit phase. Join us here!}

I've heard from many that they want to get back to baseline for summer and most importantly establish a baseline they can build off of. This is from a baseline physique and a baseline routine (which go hand in hand!).
