Wits & Weights | Fat Loss, Nutrition, & Strength Training for Lifters

Bonus Episode: I'm Imperfect (My Body, My Podcast, My Nutrition, My Fitness) and That's OK


Listen Later

Are you insecure about your body, your fitness, your health, what you eat, your work, the things you do, your life? Is chasing perfection holding you back?

We feel like we're being judged all the time, and I wanted to talk about that today and open up about my own imperfections, my own insecurities and how embracing them has been key to my growth. And if you're ready to break free from your chain of perfectionism and start celebrating progress in a new way, listen to this one.

In today's unscripted bonus episode, I share my honest thoughts on my own insecurities and the relentless pursuit of external validation, especially in our fitness journeys. Whether you are struggling with body image, fat loss, building muscle, hormones, menopause, aging, injury, or even your personal life (work, relationships, children, family, you name it), I hope this inspires you!

A recent 1-star podcast review got me thinking about the delicate balance between letting constructive criticism stop you or fuel you.

We dive into the essence of finding purpose in what you do and how continuous self-improvement will make you unstoppable. I share moments from my early career, demonstrating how embracing feedback, even when it's harsh, can propel personal growth. We uncover the power of taking messy action, pushing through setbacks, and reframing our achievements, no matter how small. We discuss the importance of community and accountability in fitness, and how to transform perceived failures into opportunities for growth.

Tune in to this special bonus episode to discover how to love the process and celebrate every step of your fitness journey.
