FIT HAPPENS

Before we unpack emotional regression, nostalgia, and why going home for the holidays can turn confident adults into slightly feral versions of themselves… we start with a very important debrief. Tracy just turned 29, the martinis were martini-ing, Sagittarius season got a little too fiery, and let’s just say lessons were learned (or at least acknowledged).

Then we cozy up and dive into the real stuff: why being “home for the holidays” can bring up old patterns, old dynamics, and emotions you swear you already worked through in therapy. We talk about nostalgia vs. reality, why your nervous...

This week on Fit Happens, we’re sitting down with the effortlessly cool Rani Vance - Pilates powerhouse, SLT + Fuze House instructor, and one of the rising voices in the EMS (Electric Muscle Stimulation) fitness space. We first met Rani at a day party in the Hamptons (very Fit Happens coded), and instantly knew she was someone we needed to bring on the pod.

We dive into Rani’s journey into fitness, how she found her way to Pilates-based training, and what keeps her energized in an industry that’s always evolving. Then, we get into the nitty...

This week on Fit Happens, the girls kick things off with a full weekend debrief - and yes, it’s exactly the kind of chaos you’d expect. Think: a night out that escalated quickly, a questionable-but-necessary late-night McDonald’s order, and a fresh batch of dating lore we absolutely did not ask for but are thrilled to unpack.

Then we dive into this week’s topic: embracing your Beginner Era - the season all of us desperately need. We talk about why starting over feels so uncomfortable (hi, ego), why being a beginner is scientifically linked to more...

We kick things off with some much-needed life updates including a full recap of our chaotic, house-music-filled weekend that confirmed maybe we haven’t lost dancing after all (!!). The girls also dive into some fresh dating lore, complete with a special guest appearance from ChatGPT who showed up to read us our romantic red flags… respectfully.

Then we jump into the good stuff: our Holiday Hangover Hacks. From surviving back-to-back parties to the cures that actually work, we’re breaking down everything you need to make it through December in one piece - hydrated, festive, and only mildly...

This week, we’re trading our usual chaotic recap for a moment of gratitude. Tracy and Mackenzie share what they’re most thankful for this year - personally, professionally, and of course, for you, the Fit Happens fam who makes this podcast possible.

Then we dive into a tender, totally-real holiday topic: navigating food, movement, and family commentary during Thanksgiving. We unpack why indulging is normal, how a single meal (or an entire cozy week) won’t derail your progress, and why skipping workouts to maximize family time (or simply to rest) is more than okay. Plus, we off...

This week’s episode is… a plot twist. For the first time in Fit Happens history, both Tracy and Mackenzie are simultaneously down bad for two recurring male characters. Since when have the girls ever been on the same page when it comes to dating? (Over/under on how long this era lasts?) Don’t worry, they’re still keeping their heads screwed on straight… or at least as straight as two fire sign fitness girlies can be.

Which brings us to today’s topic: The Death of Moderation.

Why does everything feel like it has to be al...

The girls are officially in their dating eras, and the debrief is… a lot. Mackenzie survived a less-than-stellar Hinge date with a man who treated basic conversation like manual labor, and Tracy had to send an “it’s not me, it’s you” text that was not received with grace (to put it lightly). After we unpack the red flags, the delusion, and the audacity, we pivot into this week’s topic: building your Winter Arc.

We’re talking about using the colder months to become the hottest, healthiest, smartest version of yourself - inside and out. From...

It wouldn’t be Fit Happens without a little post-Halloween chaos. Tracy and Mackenzie kick things off with a weekend recap that includes awkward run-ins with potential suitors, unexpected appearances from ex-situationships, and one of us waking up somewhere we definitely shouldn’t have been. Spooky!

Then we shift gears into something a little heavier: the truth about wellness and income inequality. From $20 smoothies to $50 Pilates classes, we’re unpacking how “health” in America has become a luxury and what happens when access to nutrition and movement depends on your paycheck. We touch on the recent pause of SNAP be...

This week, the girls sit down with the one and only Gabby Andriello - the fitness powerhouse behind SoulCycle, Soto Method, FP Movement, Fuzehouse, and of course, Housework, where all three first met.

Gabby opens up about her journey from dancer to founding trainer, the hustle of teaching across multiple modalities, and what it means to show up authentically in spaces that can feel either way too masculine or hyper-feminine. She shares how she’s learned to navigate burnout, embrace her identity as a queer woman in the fitness industry, and use her voice to build inclusive, em...

The girls are back with a weekend debrief that can only be described as… on brand. Tracy’s officially in her dating era again, using Hinge men as a pregame for DJ sets with her friends (because who needs a commitment when you have cocktails and a good beat drop?). Meanwhile, Mackenzie is sending risky texts and ending up exactly where she shouldn’t (IYKYK).

Then your favorite fitness therapists clock in for this week’s topic: GLP-1s and the quick-fix culture takeover. From Ozempic to Wegovy, we’re unpacking why society is obsessed with shortcuts, the health...

This week, Tracy and Mackenzie are joined by Makena Diehl - star group fitness trainer at Equinox, founding instructor at NYC’s hottest (literally) new studio Fuzehouse, FP Movement ambassador, and creator of her own format. The three of us go way back to our early DanceBody days, when Makena was just starting to make a name for herself in the NYC fitness scene. Spoiler alert: she’s taken off.

We dive deep into Makena’s journey from landing her first teaching gigs to growing her platform across some of the biggest names in fitness. She shares the re...

This week's episode is a Hot Girl Walk therapy sesh filled with shoulder rolls and self talk. But first, the girls are… adulting?? Mackenzie has somehow added another job to her roster, and Tracy officially cut off a man who wasn’t prioritizing her time (growth!). After some juicy life updates, your wellness besties step into therapist mode - think deep breaths, shoulder rolls, and a whole lot of truth bombs.

This is your feel-good, hot-girl-walk episode packed with inspirational words of wisdom, advice for combating negative self-talk, and gentle reminders that you’ve got this. Lace up, po...

This episode kicks off like a surprise song you didn't see coming! Tracy hits us with a life update that's giving "I Did Something Bad" - let’s just say she secured the Great Dance Floor Makeout of 2025… with someone she definitely shouldn’t have been kissing. (Is it a bad idea? Probably. Is it hot? Absolutely.) Meanwhile, Mackenzie takes us back to the Hamptons, where the girlies left a party with total strangers only to end up petting horses at 2am. Survival instincts? Nonexistent. Vibes? Flawless.

Then we dive into our main event: Taylor Swift eras as fit...

We’re kicking things off with a weekend recap you won’t want to miss. Tracy is fresh off a work trip in Miami where she may or may not have become betrothed to a man with a convertible, Mackenzie had the most wholesome mom-and-daughter weekend complete with finally seeing Wicked on Broadway (yes, she somehow avoided spoilers for 20 years), and our guest Bobby spent several days in full NYC demon mode.

Which brings us to our interview with the man, the myth, the legend - Bobby Westside. He’s not only a powerhouse trainer in New York C...

This week’s episode is a ride. First, we’re recapping our weekends - Tracy went on a date with an old coworker crush that turned into pure chaos (think: shots at the table, impromptu live performances, and somehow giving the waiter dating advice by the end of the night). Meanwhile, Mackenzie has some former flames sliding back into her life… but this time they’re asking for business advice?!

Then we dive into this week’s topic: Boundaries. We’re talking romantic boundaries (yes, including situationships), friendship boundaries (goodbye, passive-aggressive group chats), work boundaries (no, you don’t have t...

This week on Fit Happens, Tracy and Mackenzie are a little too giggly (did someone say pre-pod smoke sesh?), and it shows. We kick things off with our weekly recap: fun events around the city, yet another trip to pod-favorite Bondst (jury’s still out on how to pronounce it), and a little teaser for our chaotic Labor Day Weekend in the Hamptons - buckle up because we're in for a wild ride.

Then we dive into the topic of the week: our Back to School (F)It Girl Guide. Think of it as your fall syllabus fo...

Hot girl summer may be wrapping up, but your Fit Happens girls are still in the thick of the chaos. This week, Tracy and Mackenzie spill all the tea on their summer romances - from Raya flings to messy breakups, confusing friend crushes, and a very real campaign to bring back the lost art of the dance floor make-out (seriously, when did that die?).

After the recap, we dive into this week’s topic: silencing criticism. Whether it’s judgment from peers, pressure from social media, or that nagging voice in your own head, the noise can get...

This week on Fit Happens, your fav duo is back at it again with a crazy weekend recap aka swatting men away like flies at a NYC rooftop (spoiler alert: none of them were over the age of 25). Then we dive into some insane dating lore - Mackenzie spills the tea on the time she got literally handcuffed to her hot trainer, and Tracy shares the unforgettable dinner date where a man blacked out and went skiing… at the dinner table (yes, you heard that right.)

All roads lead to the bigger convo: why it actually matters to...

This week on Fit Happens, we’re bringing you a little bit of zen and a whole lot of chaos. Mackenzie is fresh off her 28th birthday celebrations (think spa energy, delicious cake, and zero drama), while Tracy’s weekend involved an out-of-town friend, a possible crush, and just the right amount of “what did I get myself into?” vibes.

Then we’re diving headfirst into the main event: hustle culture—why it’s got us running on caffeine and cortisol, and how to finally girlboss without the burnout. We’re breaking down why society expects us to do a million...

This week, Tracy and Mackenzie kick things off with a debrief of their disastrous-yet-iconic weekend in the Hamptons - featuring a medical emergency and Mackenzie’s dramatic exit via a 2 hour Uber home.

Then we dive into the real tea: Why are our bodies treated like trends? From thigh gaps to BBLs to the new Ozempic era, we’re unpacking the pressure to keep up with what’s “in,” even in the fitness world. Can we really stay grounded when Instagram keeps shifting the standard? Why do we still spiral even when we “know better”?

It’s honest, h...

This week on Fit Happens, your fav duo is back and recapping the kind of weekends that reset your soul (and your step count). Tracy returns from her mountain escape with stories of breathtaking views and altitude woes. Meanwhile, Mackenzie spent her weekend in the city's green spaces, and spoiler alert: touching grass is actually therapeutic. Who knew?

But let's be real - you're here for the glow-up tips. We're diving into this week's juicy topic: what hot girls aren't gatekeeping anymore. We're talking favorite beauty products, fitness tricks that actually work, wellness rituals that aren't BS...

This week on Fit Happens, the girls are recovering from a whirlwind weekend that started with teaching back-to-back fitness classes in the city - then took a sharp left turn into pure chaos with a trip to the Hamptons. Picture this: costume party, hitchhiking with Mackenzie’s sister, and swimming fully clothed in a stranger’s pool. Balance, baby.

Then it’s time for the main event: Would You Rather – Fitness Edition. The girls get into the silliest, most unhinged hypothetical scenarios the workout world has to offer. Would you rather crank out 100 burpees or run 5 miles on a sil...

This week on Fit Happens, we’re kicking things off with a full debrief of our unhinged weekend: an all-night DJ set in Brooklyn, a mysterious beat that never dropped (??), and a surprise appearance by a pair of very shirtless French men. We’re still not sure if we attended a rave or joined a cult, but either way… vibes were vibing.

Once we recover from the chaos, we’re diving into something a little deeper: how to take care of yourself when life feels extra hard. Whether you’re going through a breakup, burnout, or just a week whe...

Tracy spills all about her dreamy 4th of July vacay where she finally understood why they call them "East Coast Elites." Meanwhile, Mackenzie stayed in NYC and gets real about her love-hate relationship with holiday weekends in the city. The girls also open up about their anxiety and what’s been feeling a little off lately.

Then it’s time to dive into this week’s topic: how to spot what’s secretly draining your wellness. From over-tracking and burnout disguised as “discipline” to toxic friendships and wellness trends that do more harm than good, we’re breaking down...

This week on Fit Happens… Mackenzie’s back from Cancun with a tan and a twinkle in her eye (hmmm why's that!?). Meanwhile, Tracy’s gearing up to bring the heat to NYC with some killer rooftop workout pop-ups! We’re also getting real about balance: sometimes it means chasing the fun, and sometimes it means saying no (even when FOMO is screaming yes).

Then we dive into this week’s main event - morning routines! We’re breaking down what our real-life AMs actually look like (spoiler: not all sunshine and spirulina). From non-negotiables that keep us...

On this week’s episode of Fit Happens, Mackenzie shares the chaotic tale of how a West Side Highway meet-cute took a strange turn when the guy already had her number (???). Red flag? Psychic connection? We unpack it. Meanwhile, Tracy spills the tea on how iCloud exposed her ex-fiancé’s double life - with men. We said what we said (happy Pride, y'all!).

Then we dive into the wellness trends we are not buying into anymore. Spoiler alert: aluminum-free deodorant is a scam and we’re its loudest haters. But don’t worry, we also shout out the fitne...

In this episode of Fit Happens, we’re turning the mic toward the ultimate girl boss aka our very own boss, Sydney Miller! As the founder and CEO of Housework (the workout that makes you feel like you’re clubbing and crushing your fitness goals), Sydney spills all the tea on how she built her fitness empire from the ground up.

We chat about her journey from trainer to powerhouse entrepreneur, what it’s really like running a business, how she keeps her cool while juggling emails, events, and espresso shots - and yes, we even get into h...

Pack your bags and buckle up — this week’s episode of Fit Happens is a wild ride. We’re kicking things off with some of our most unhinged vacation stories: Tracy’s international romance with a language barrier lover, a situation suspiciously similar to the plot of Taken with a surprise royal twist, and Mackenzie’s love affair with a Portuguese man who may or may not have been after a green card.

After the chaos, we get down to business: how to stay committed to your fitness goals while you’re off the grid. From bodyweight workouts tha...

This week on Fit Happens, we're recapping our very balanced weekend - starting with a sober rave featuring toddlers, caffeine, and way too much enthusiasm at 10AM... and ending with a Saturday night that included one too many cocktails and a few questionable choices. Hey, it's called balance!

Then, we dive into our topic of the week: Girl Dinner We're sharing how to meal prep in a way that's smart, consistent, and anything but boring (spoiler: sauces are the unsung heroes). Plus, we're talking all about how to eat like a champ on a night out without...

This week on Fit Happens, we’re serving steam and sass. After a wellness weekend that started in the spa (hello hot/cold contrast therapy) and ended in a 14-hour bender bouncing between DJ booths (yes, plural), we’re debriefing the full fitness-to-fiasco pipeline.

But the real tea? We’re diving into group fitness icks. You know, those cringe moments in class that make us want to drop the dumbbells and disappear? From trainers who have diva status to barefoot burpee bros, no one is safe. We even took it to TikTok and got your ickies...

BONJOUR!! Mackenzie just got back from galivanting through London and Paris. Which like… did you know London left the EU? News to us. But real headline is Tracy getting freaky in the Louvre. Yes, THAT Louvre.

Once we recover from that bombshell, we’re diving into our summer glow up playbook. Think Hot Girl Walks with purpose, barely-there makeup because even a “natural” beauty isn’t really natural, and self-care products that make us feel like glowing, emotionally stable icons (even when we’re not). Whether you’re beach-bound or just trying to thrive in 90% humidity, we’ve got the tips...

This week, your favorite fit-but-fun besties are back with a debrief from our weekend out—yes, it included espresso martinis, sleep deprivation, and the eternal question: is it “Bond Street” or “Bondst” like… one word? Help.

Then we jump into our topic of the week: Smash or Pass—Group Fitness Studio Edition. We tried the trendiest classes so you don’t have to. From dimly lit spin caves to pastel Pilates palaces, we’re giving our honest, unfiltered takes. Who served, who scammed, and who had the audacity to charge $45 for a glorified stretch?

Grab your matcha becaus...

We’re back—and recovering—from our Fit Happens launch party hangover (shoutout to our sponsor Diageo for making it both fabulous and dangerous). In this episode, we recap the chaos, including our custom cocktail menu, dance-floor cardio, and that man who had the AUDACITY to flirt with both of us like we wouldn’t compare notes. Bold move, sir. Bold.

But don’t worry—we’re not just here for the drama. This week’s main event is all about building a fitness schedule that you’ll actually stick to. We’re breaking it down step by step: how to plan...

In this kickoff episode we're spilling the tea on who we are, why we started the podcast, and what you can expect from our weekly doses of fitspiration, fun, and a little friendly chaos.

This week's hot topic: can you prioritize your health without ghosting your social life? (Spoiler alert: yes, but it takes some planning - and maybe some electrolytes.) We're dishing out our favorite tips and tricks for finding balance, avoiding hangovers, and making choices that feel good without sacrificing your Friday night.

Grab your matcha or mimosa - no judgement here...
