Secure Your Spot

We treat the holidays like they're a 10-week freefall — but the truth is, most of your meals, your moments, and your mindset are still in your control. In this episode, I'll show you how to stay in your power without swinging to extremes.

You'll learn:

• The surprising "Holiday Math" that changes everything

• Why your inner narrative matters more than your plan

• How to use science-backed micro-moves to stay grounded

• Why movement, sleep, and sunlight aren't about discipline — they're about physiology

• The real reason people fall off during this season (hint: it's not willpower)

Whether you're feeling chaotic, discouraged, or like you always lose ground at this time of year — this episode gives you a new way to stay engaged, without guilt or rigidity.

For the first time ever, I'm giving you the opportunity to:

This is the time of year when most people hit pause on their goals. They drift. They defer. They tell themselves, "I'll get serious again in January."

But what if this season — the one most people treat like an exception — could actually be your turning point?

In this episode, I'm talking about what I call Separation Season — the window of time between now and the New Year when small daily choices stack up and create the gap between stuck and unstoppable. And spoiler alert: it's not about being perfect. It's about recommitting, over and over again, in small ways that move the needle.

But that's not all…

"Everybody wants to heal… until the medicine shows up in the form of discipline." – Hippocrates (400 B.C.)

Why is it so hard to do the things we say we want to do?

In today's episode, we're digging into one of the biggest struggles so many of us face: discipline. Not just why it's hard—but why it can feel almost impossible in today's world.

We're not lazy. We're not broken. We're living in a world designed to hijack our brains through overstimulation and constant dopamine hits—from social media, processed food, streaming content, even the kind of books we read.

In this episode, I'll walk you through:

• Why discipline feels harder than ever (hint: it's not your fault)

• How dopamine and your brain's salience network make high-stimulation things feel more important than your goals

• What makes your brain highlight some things (and ignore others)

• Why real connection, presence, and long-term goals feel boring when you're overstimulated

• How to retrain your brain so discipline feels easier, not harder

This isn't about going off the grid or giving up your phone. It's about making discipline feel possible again—by making life just a little bit quieter.

• Your brain highlights what gives you the most dopamine (this is called salience)

• Overstimulation rewires your motivation—it prioritizes scrolling over sleep, Netflix over goals

• The solution isn't "more willpower"—it's less noise

• You can rewire your salience network with small, doable changes:

  • Less screen time

  • More walks and movement (without your phone)

  • More whole foods, less ultra-processed stuff

  • Reducing high-dopamine distractions (yes, even the "harmless" ones)

Ask yourself:

1. What got my attention today?

2. What felt most important?

3. Did it reflect the life I'm trying to build?

If not—good news. You can change what your brain highlights, one small shift at a time.

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.

A client recently said something that completely stopped me in my tracks:

"My mindset determines the choices I'm going to make. Don't decide from a shitty mindset — otherwise, I've rigged the game against myself."

Mic. Drop.

It immediately made me reflect — how often do we do this? How often do we unconsciously (or consciously) make it harder to follow through, succeed, or feel good?

In this episode, I'm sharing:

• What it actually means to rig the game against yourself

• How to recognize when you're doing it (with real client stories + examples)

• What it looks like to rig it in your favor instead

• The mindset shift from "positive" to helpful that changes everything

• A journaling prompt to help you create your own breakthrough today

You might feel fine. But chronic inflammation could still be running the show — silently disrupting your hormones, energy, digestion, mood, and metabolism.

• The difference between CRP and hs-CRP (and why it matters way more than you think)

• What your body fat, cortisol, gut health, and mitochondria have to do with inflammation

• And most importantly: what you can do this week to lower inflammation and feel better fast
