Welcome to Embrace Your Real with me, Julie Ledbetter, a podcast where I empower you to just be you. My hope for you is to stop hating your body, picking a part every flaw, questioning your worth, doubting your strength, making excuses, and constantly starting over. I get it, I've been there. I know it feels like an impossible cycle to break, but let me tell you: I've successfully broken the decad... more

Someone recently asked me what "embrace your real" actually means.
Not as a podcast name. Not as a cute phrase. But on a random Tuesday when the mirror feels hard, life feels messy, and the version of yourself in your head does not match the season... more
A workout plan can sound like it needs to be complicated.
Pick the right split. Choose the right exercises. Decide how many days to train. Figure out what equipment to use. Make sure it fits your goal, your schedule, your energy, and your real life... more
Postpartum body talk can get so loud.
The bounce-back pressure. The timelines. The before-and-afters. The feeling that your body is something to fix as quickly as possible after it just did the most incredible thing.
But mama, what if your postpa... more
The end of summer can feel a little loaded.
Maybe the routines got loose. Maybe workouts were missed. Maybe nutrition felt more relaxed than usual. And now that fall is right around the corner, there can be this sneaky pressure to buckle down, get ... more

Love this podcast. I’ve been listening and using her workout app for over 3 years. She’s real and keeps things simple and true. No crazy diet talk, no fluff. Just real and super helpful. As a 49 yo woman in perimenopause I highly recommend!
This is seriously an amazing podcast. Every episode is like a pep talk in my ear. I just discovered Embrace Your Real about a month ago and I wish I had discovered it sooner. I get so much information out of every episode whether it’s about workouts, macro counting, mental health, positivity, body image, self image and so much more. Julie’s voice is so soothing, in my opinion, and the podcast is well edited and always organized and easy to listen to. Keep it up forever, Julie!
This summer I’ll be coming up on 2 years postpartum, 1 year post brain surgery and 4 months post early miscarriage.
I’ve been a long time listener of EYR and in the last couple years it’s helped me continue to have compassion for and wisdom in how to care for my body and recover well.
Combined with doing MWJ workouts, Julie, you’ve been a lifeline to me in this season. Thank you 🫶🏻
Miss Julie, my internet BFF. I’ve had different chapters in my life the past 4 years but one thing that has been consistent is you! Your podcasts, your Movement with Julie app, and your IG. You’re the one constant thing that grounds me and motivates me. Forever grateful for you!
I’ve been listening to this podcast for the past couple of years and love that Julie is relatable, real and gives great insights for balancing life and overall health. I love her connection with her faith and bringing that into the balance as well.
My only complaint is how often she pushes her Movement with Julie program. Mentioning it once in a podcast or every few podcasts is plenty but I feel like over the past year the program is heavily pushed much more than it used to be. That being said,... more
