In this episode of the Fit Like Krys podcast, Krys continues the theme of letting go—this time focusing on the pressure we place on ourselves around goals and control. While goal-setting is a key part of her wellness philosophy, Krys breaks down how becoming too attached to those goals can create anxiety, burnout, and missed opportunities. Instead, she offers a more flexible, empowering approach rooted in mindfulness, intention, and self-acceptance.

What’s Inside This Episode:
Krys walks listeners through four major concepts to help shift from goal attachment to goal commitment—with less pressure and more peace.

1. Attachment vs. Commitment

Krys explains the difference between being committed to a goal and being attached to it.

• Commitment builds confidence through daily effort.
• Attachment creates anxiety by fixating on the outcome.
  She encourages listeners to examine whether they feel empowered or overwhelmed by the goals they’ve set.

2. Mindfulness in the Day-to-Day

Often, anxiety comes from living in a future that hasn’t arrived yet.
 Krys urges the use of daily mindfulness practices—like journaling, meditation, deep breathing, or movement—to pull back into the present moment. These simple tools can reduce stress and improve focus on what can actually be done today.

3. Shift from Goals to Intentions

Rather than holding tightly to big, long-term goals, Krys suggests using daily or weekly intentions and priorities as a guide.
Whether it’s saving money, losing weight, or improving your routine, breaking down big goals into small, actionable steps can keep you grounded and consistent—without the pressure of chasing a fixed result.

4. Acceptance vs. Denial

A big theme of the episode is the importance of accepting your current reality.
 Krys explains how clinging to how things should look keeps people stuck. Instead, she invites listeners to work with their current life, body, and circumstances—not against them. Letting go of the “perfect time” and embracing the now creates space for real growth.

Key Takeaways:

• Set goals, but don’t hold on too tightly—set it and forget it.
• Replace rigid goals with clear intentions and daily commitments.
• Practice mindfulness to stay in the present and reduce overwhelm.
• Embrace where you are and who you are, and work from there.
