B. Real Podcast Wed, 22 Apr 2026 06:05:12 -0400 en-us © 2026 B. Real Podcast yes 4290fe9e-155f-5020-8bbc-fc767c88c145 Brittany Bijan episodic true We live in a performative world where it's getting harder to tell who's real and who's just playing the part.


We're making ourselves sick — literally — by not confronting the things that are slowly breaking us down. We hold so much in our bodies. Trauma, stress, grief, anger — things we don't even have names for yet. Things nobody ever taught us to deal with.


It's hard to find the real ones these days. It's hard to trust what people say when their behavior tells a completely different story. And it's hard to take care of yourself in a world that profits from keeping you unhealthy, disconnected and running on empty.


B Real — The Sh!t Nobody Told Me is for the woman who is trying to gain knowledge and strength, its for the Women who is trying to heal and grow.

This is a podcast about authenticity and the search for it. It's about trauma — what it does to your body, your mind and your life — and how we actually heal from it. It's about finding ways to feel strong as hell from the inside out. And it's about fighting back against a world that is working overtime to keep us sick.

Every episode is a real and raw conversation. The shit nobody told us.

Because somewhere along the way nobody told us the truth about our bodies, our trauma, our strength or our potential to heal.


We're telling you now and we’re gonna figure this shit out together.

The Shit Nobody Told us about getting stronger with Bec Taylor 2. The Shit Nobody Told us about getting stronger with Bec Taylor In this episode of B.Real: The Shit Nobody Told Us, Brittany talks strength and conditioning with coach Bec Taylor. They touch on what women in their 30s and 40s really need for strength, energy, and longevity. Bec shares her journey from an active childhood in Australia to training women for Nike, and breaks down how to start strength training without getting overwhelmed, why you won’t “get bulky,” and how protein, carbs, and simple bodyweight workouts can support your hormones and long-term health—even with a packed schedule.

Learn more about:


  • (02:09) Bec’s Australian roots & Nike journey – Growing up active near the beach, multi-sport childhood, and moving to the U.S. to work for Nike.
  • (07:03) How and when women should start strength training – Why bodyweight work (squats, hinges, pushes, pulls) 2–3x/week is the smartest entry point.
  • (13:11) The “bulky” myth, debunked – Why it’s actually hard for women to gain significant muscle size and what really happens when you lift 2–4x per week.
  • (14:46) Protein, carbs, and under-fueling – How most women undereat both protein and carbohydrates, and why timing and spreading intake across the day matters.
  • (21:12) Prime to build: A realistic starting plan – Bec’s simple framework: two full-body bodyweight sessions plus two walks per week to build consistency and confidence.


“I have never done a workout or a run or a hike that I've regretted. I've always appreciated how I feel afterwards.” – Bec Taylor

Why B.Real: The Trauma, and Healing Behind the Mic In this powerful debut episode of B.Real, B opens up about her turbulent childhood, teenage years marked by excessive drug use and alcohol abuse and instability, and the long, hard road to building a safe, loving life for herself and her family. From being sent to rehabs and boarding schools as a pre-teen, to escaping an abusive relationship and unexpectedly becoming a young mother in Los Angeles, she shares how these experiences shaped her deep commitment to health, wellness, and motherhood. Now a coach, mother of four, and grandmother, B explains why she started the B.Real podcast: to create an honest space for women to share their stories, feel less alone, and learn practical ways to become strong—physically, mentally, and emotionally.


Key Takeaways

  • From chaos to compass: B’s unstable childhood—marked by excessive drug use, mental health struggles at home, and constant relocation—became the foundation for the mother and mentor she is today.
  • Survival to self-worth: Early life was pure survival mode; meeting her husband at 24 was a turning point that finally gave her safety, love, and room to grow.
  • Movement as medicine: Even in the middle of teenage mayhem, movement and exercise were a lifeline that later evolved into a full commitment to health and wellness.
  • Breaking generational cycles: B is intentional about parenting differently—using self-awareness, accountability, and open communication to give her kids a life she never had and breaking generational cycles in the process.
  • Why “B.Real” exists: This podcast is designed as a raw, judgment-free space for women with “real stories and real grit” to share what they’ve been through and how they’ve built strength and resiliency.


“You have all the odds stacked against you, and you figured that fucking shit out anyway. And how amazing is that?” – B
