On this week's episode I'm going to tell you why motivation is BULLSH!T when it comes to results. And TBH so is "discipline" because I'm tired of hearing that word be thrown around with no real context.

The TRUTH is that you need HABITS to be disciplined too. So In this episode I'm going to tell you why your 30 day challenges and your extreme diets have you constantly going back for more and are never an end solution to your goals.

We are going to be talking about extremes and I have some HOT TAKES on things like Keto & 75 Hard, trust me it’s not what you think…

If you’re new here, the thing you need to know about me is there is now “have to do it” with me. If you tell me I HAVE TO do something a certain way or I HAVE TO with no TRUE understanding of why - I ain’t doin in.

So we’re going to get into the nitty gritty of why I don’t think anyone has to do any extremes.
