Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast focuses on wellness, mental health, and fitness, with episodes covering topics such as the stigma around seeking therapy, personal breakthroughs in mental health, and the integration of fitness into daily routines. The first episode features a conversation with a licensed marriage and family therapist, offering insights into the therapeutic process and personal storytelling.

UpLift Women’s Wellness is hosted by Bethany Busch, MS, ACSM-EP, CSCS, sport and exercise scientist, strength specialist, and founder of Head 2 Toe Strength, and Auria Zahed, MS, LMFT, licensed psychotherapist. Together, they explore women’s health, performance, mental health, identity, relationships, body trust, recovery, and the systems that shape how women experience their bodies and lives. Expect smart, candid conversations that connect science, lived experience, and professional expertise without reducing women to symptoms, diagnoses, or wellness trends.
Year-round competition, zero off-seasons, and non-stop rehearsals create an unsustainable and judgemental environment where dancers operate at peak volume physically and mentally. Physical therapist Claire Spivak joins the discussion to review why skill instruction and aesthetic ideals, without intentional physical and mental preparation, breaks young athletes. Claire shares how taking dancers out of the studio and into a strength environment helps them ask questions, listen to physical signals, and build resilience.
