She explains what truly separates good injectors from scary ones, how to tell whether Botox or filler is right for you, why migration isn’t always what people think, and what actually delivers lasting results. We also dive into: - Botox vs. filler — what’s the REAL difference? - Facial balancing and why subtlety matters - Lip filler culture and body dysmorphia - Overrated treatments vs. what actually works - BBL vs. microneedling — which should you get and when? - Is Botox safe?

The Truth About Building Muscle & Glute Growth for Women with Zach Goetz

This week, we sit down with Zach Gates (celebrity and professional athlete trainer, and owner of one of LA’s most exclusive gyms) to talk about what really works when it comes to training, building muscle, and longevity. In this episode, we asked him what women are doing wrong in the gym, how to train smarter, what’s actually worth spending your time and money on, and of course Zach’s best booty building tips. We also trained with Zach before recording (and our booties are still paying for it). He called out how to actually structure your workouts, shared his go-to splits, and gave us a no-BS look into how he approaches performance, health, and balance. If your goal is to get stronger, move better, and finally understand what works — this one’s for you!
