Don’t you find it frustrating? YOU KNOW what you’re supposed to do, yet, you don’t do it.
Or, you know what not to do, but do it anyway.
You know your evening snack watching a show will make you feel like crap the next day, but you still do it.
You know that taking a walk after lunch would win the afternoon, yet you fill those 20 minutes with more sitting at your computer.
The afternoon energy crashes, the blood sugar instability, the alcohol habit, the belly,... Those are real obstacles.
The knowing-doing gap is the reason the plans or systems don't stick.
This IS the struggle.
This is the real reason why most of us find it difficult to stay healthy.
In today's episode, I give you 3 steps to help you bridge the gap from knowing to doing.
And friend, have you found that some episodes were not super helpful to you?
I cannot wait to meet you!
A survey of over 1,000 people aged 40+ found that 75% were dissatisfied with their bodies, and 64% reported frequently judging their own worth based on their weight.
If you are here, there is a strong probability that you are struggling with some body image.
I know this whole concept comes pretty loaded. This episode is not about "body positivity", or going to tell you that "You are beautiful no matter what",
In this episode, we'll start with the objective data of what a HEALTHY BODY looks like, while acknowledging healthy bodies come in many different shapes.
If you are in a place where you feel body dissatisfaction, this episode will help you to change the things you look at, so the things you look out, can change.
Here is how this episode will shift your perspective:
- What you need to do instead of treating your body as the enemy
- The most powerful force you can harness for lasting change
- A way to relate to your body that can help you transform
In this episode, I am asking for your help in better understanding your journey so I can help you better.
