There will comes a point in your journey when the initial excitement you felt when you first started begins to fade and now you're just going through the boring motions. We like to call it the messy middle, and it can be a challenging time to navigate, especially if you didn't start the process with the expectation that it will happen at some point. Instead of getting frustrated and choosing to abandon ship all together, how can you instead get curious about what mindset shifts you need to make and actions you can take to help you stay the course?  

Action is the antidote to overwhelm. Today we share our own experiences and the steps we take to get ourselves out of the (totally natural!) state overwhelm. Mentioned: @carinnordin

If you have a string of broken promise to yourself a mile long, give this episode a listen to see what you might be able to tweak to begin being a promise keeper. Hint: The answer is not "get more willpower."

With the New Year only a few days away, we're sitting down to reflect on 2021 and look ahead to 2022. Join us as we chat about what worked and what didn't last year and what we plan to do differently in the coming one. What goals (if any) are we setting for ourselves, what feelings and values  we want to embody based on what truly matters in our lives, and what we will do to best set ourselves up for success. 

We also leave you with some questions to ponder over the next few days to help you go into the New Year with more clarity about what you want to do and who you want to be. 

We sit down with coach Jaime Morrocco (@jaimemorocco on IG )today for a chat about diet culture:
