We all know what all looks like — strict rules, clean eating, heavy discipline. And we definitely know what nothing looks like — throwing in the towel and saying, "Whatever, I'll start over Monday."

But what about the middle? Why does it feel so hard to define… let alone stay in?

In today's episode, I'm unpacking a powerful conversation I had with a client who said something so many of us feel:

"Navigating the middle feels lost — like no direction. It feels like too much freedom and an impossible place to navigate."

Especially this time of year — when schedules are packed, events are frequent, and temptations are everywhere — the middle can feel impossible.

We're talking about:

• Why "the middle" feels so elusive

• What to do when you don't hold the line

• How to adjust your goals without abandoning them

• Why re-engagement matters more than perfection

• And how to stay in the game — even when you miss the mark

This is not about following a perfect plan. It's about building the resilience to keep going when life gets loud.
