You have spent years holding it together for everyone else.
Your kids. Your partner. Your job. Your family. Everyone except yourself.
Somewhere along the way you stopped recognizing yourself. Not because you are broken — but because nobody told you the truth about your body, your hormones, your trauma or your healing. And you have been running on empty ever since.
B. Real — The Sh!t Nobody Told Me is where that shit stops.
Hosted by Brittany Bijan
Hosted by Brittany Bijan — certified health coach, trauma coach and yoga teacher, mama of 4, nana of 2 and a woman who figured out everything the hard way — this podcast exists for the midlife woman who has spent years taking care of everything and everyone and is finally ready to take care of herself.
Every week we get real about four things:
Your Body
building strength and capability that has nothing to do with how you look and everything to do with how you live and how you feel.
Your Nervous System
understanding what chronic stress, burnout and fight or flight are actually doing to you mentally & physically and what to do about it.
Your Story
the trauma, the healing, the hormones and everything they forgot to tell us. Said out loud. Finally. We all have shit and we’re gonna unpack our shit together.
Your Beyond
And Who you are beyond everyone and everything else — your identity, your relationships, all of it.
No one ever talked to me about any of this, I figured it all out on my own through experience. I am happy to be able to share all with you now.
No bullshit, all raw and honest conversations from a woman still working through her own shit daily — with guests who keep it a hundred too.
You are not jacked or broken. You got this.

Hi! I’m Brittany Bijan
40 Strong Founder & CEO
I see you.
You have spent years being the one who holds all the shit together. The one who shows up for everyone. The one who figures it out and gets it done — because that is just what you do. And somewhere along the way you convinced yourself you didn’t have time to care for your own well-being. Not because you are weak. Not because you made wrong choices. But because nobody taught you to care for yourself by any means necessary.
I am Brittany Bijan — certified health coach, trauma coach and yoga teacher. Mama of 4. Nana of 2. A woman who spent most of her life figuring out everything the hard way. I know what it feels like to be strong for everyone and slip on your own needs. I know what it feels like to not recognize yourself when you look in the mirror. I know what it feels like to carry trauma in your body for so long you start to believe that there’s no other way.
And I know what it feels like to finally decide — enough.
Over the past two decades I have worked with women who are done being last on their own list. Women who have tried everything — the gym memberships, the diets, the supplements, the downloaded plans they never finished. Women whose real problem was never lack of knowledge. It was implementation inside a full life with nobody in their corner who actually understood what their body was going through.
That is where I come in.
My work lives inside four areas:
Getting strong — not for how you look but for what you can do, how you show up and how long you live.
Regulating your nervous system — understanding what chronic stress, burnout and years of putting everyone else first has actually done to your body — and what genuinely helps.
Healing the sh!t nobody told you about — the trauma, the hormones, the grief, the stories you have been holding so tight in your body and it’s time to release that shit.
And remembering who you are beyond every role you play.
This is not about becoming a better version of yourself for everyone else.
This is about becoming yourself. For you.
It is not too late. It was never too late.
You just needed someone to tell you the truth.
