More JOY Less OY: Episode 1

“Just Start (Even if it Sucks): Meet Your Recovering OYster-in-Chief”

Well, it finally happened—I hit record. 😱After 97ish rewrites, a few joyful meltdowns, and a whole lotta pep talks (thank you, mirror, Jeffrey, Diane and a few other cheerleaders), the More JOY Less OY podcast has officially launched!

In this first episode, I’m introducing myself—Bethanne Wellness Weiss—your not-so-average fitness and nutrition pro, motivational speaker, behavior-change specialist , peanut-butter-pie lover, and recovering OYster.

You’ll get the real, raw scoop behind “Little Miss Perky” (spoiler alert: I’ve been through it), and the messy, healing journey that led me here. I’m talking caregiving, chronic pain, soul aches, and why I believe JOY isn’t a luxury—it’s a lifeline. Find my podcast on popular outlets and at MoreJOYLessOYPodcast.com.

🎧 In This Episode:

Meet your guide to more JOY and less OY—yours truly!
The truth behind my svelt arms and high energy (hint: at one time I was more likely to tattoo a scull on my assets rather than move my or anyone else’s assets)
Why starting messy beats waiting for perfect every single time
A peek into my real-life journey through breakdowns, breakthroughs, and bouncing back (literally)
Who this podcast is for—especially if you:
- Blame those “oohs” and “aahs” on your 40ish-year-old cheerleading injury (spoiler alert: it’s the movement you stopped doing afterward that’s the issue)
- Give everything to everyone else, but haven’t yet tended to your own hunched back, cranky joints, or soul’s container
Why I say stop plotzing (aka plopping) and start moving—with doable,JOYful tweaks
And yup… you’ll walk away with at least 3 Tiny Tweaks you can try today (but I’m not giving them away here—you gotta listen 😉)

💛 If you’ve been saving your JOY for “someday,” this is your cue to stop waiting and start tweaking.

🔥 Sneak Peek into My Next Episode:

“PAIN is a Gift”This one’s a real kick in the assets. You’ll never look at chronic PAIN the same way again. Get ready to flip your perspective, find the purpose in the PAIN, discover why it’s in all caps—and maybe even bask in a little more JOY (and less OY) along the way.
