In this powerful episode of The Fitness Doctor Coaching Show, Robbie sits down with licensed mental health counselor and addiction professional Maritsa Yzaguirre-Kelley to explore the emotional weight many carry—especially in their 50s, 60s, and beyond. Together, they unpack the hidden stressors that often sabotage progress, from guilt and burnout to unresolved trauma and identity loss.

With compassion and clarity, Maritsa shares how emotional overload shows up in the body, why it becomes harder to process pain with age, and what steps anyone can take to reconnect with their deeper strength. This conversation is a must-watch for anyone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or silently struggling while trying to stay strong for everyone else. It’s not about being perfect—it’s about finding the courage to be real, and finally making space for your own healing.
