3: How Strength Training Prepared Debbie for Caregiving, Career, and Everything Else

If you've spent years being the strong one for everyone else and have no idea what it looks like to show up for yourself too, this episode is for you. I talk with longtime client Debbie, a real estate broker with almost 40 years in the business, about what actually carried her through single parenting, two parents with Alzheimer's, and a confidence problem nobody would guess she had. Debbie shares the daily system that got her through the hardest years: three non-negotiable priorities a day, written down and reviewed every night. Strength training women over 50, caring for aging parents, and building real confidence aren't about one big turning point. This episode shows what two decades of small, consistent choices actually add up to. 00:00 – Meet Debbie: Strength Training and Real Estate Success 01:17 – Starting a Strength Journey as a Single Mom 16:21 – Caring for Aging Parents with Alzheimer's 30:00 – Healthy Aging: Fitness, Energy, and Longevity 34:20 – Redefining Retirement and Embracing Every Season Check out the show notes and other resources at  https://karen-gallagher.com/post/strength-training-caregiving-career Send me a message!
