What a fun conversation with Dana on The Painfree Athlete Podcast!

We covered everything from health and wellness to mindset, movement, resilience, and creating a life with more energy and purpose. Dana is an incredible host and an even better human. I truly enjoyed our conversation!

You can listen on Spotify or watch the full episode on YouTube.

In this conversation, Dana and Lida dig into:

- The food-exercise trap

- Pre- and post-workout nutrition

- Sleep as a performance tool

- Behavior change that actually sticks

- The 80/20 rule

- Lida also gives us a sneak peek at her upcoming book, Six Million Reasons to Hope: Finding Inner Light After a Life of Hurt, releasing in July 2026. Part memoir, part workbook, it follows her personal journey through trauma, sugar addiction, and emotional struggle — and guides readers through her signature "Triple E" framework: Explore, Educate, and Empower.
