How I Worked Out for a Year with Zero Motivation: Surviving Depression and Finding Strength


Listen Later

In this episode, I share my raw and unfiltered experience of navigating a year of severe depression, anxiety, and zero motivation—all while staying committed to fitness and nutrition. From losing $24,000 to a bad business coaching investment to battling OCD, this past year tested me in ways I never imagined.


I discuss how I kept showing up even when it felt impossible, the strategies I used to build momentum when motivation was absent, and why action always precedes motivation. You’ll hear about adjusting expectations, breaking free from perfectionism, and creating systems to reduce resistance and stay consistent.


Whether you’re struggling with your mental health, feeling stuck in your fitness journey, or just need a reminder that progress isn’t always linear, this episode is for you. Tune in for practical advice, personal insights, and a candid conversation about resilience, support systems, and showing up for yourself when it matters most.
