Fresh starts. 

They’re like a breath of fresh air, aren’t they?

That's why I always look forward to them.

A clean slate. A time full of potential.

And here we are, standing right on the edge of one.

2025 is knocking.

And whether you’re on Team New Year’s Resolutions or not, one thing’s for sure: we've all got goals.

But here’s the big question—

What if making this fresh start count isn’t about working harder or piling on more...

What if it’s about cutting through the noise and focusing on what truly matters?

No fluff.

No magic solutions that sound great but fizzle out by February.

Just good, old-fashioned rock-solid principles.

Timeless truths that keep you steady when life gets messy.

And let’s be honest about the holidays. They’re not just twinkling lights and sitting by the fire.

It's a full-on obstacle course.

On one side, there’s a plate of cookies staring you down. On the other, pies, cocktails, and a buffet of excuses.

And then there's your family either backing you up or pushing your buttons (sometimes both).

But the holidays are also exactly what you need right now.

They’re the perfect training ground.

And if you start practicing these principles now you're setting the stage for a pretty incredible '25. 

So, here’s the question:

What’s going to guide you this year?

Today, we’re breaking down the principles that don’t just get you through the easy times—they’re the ones you lean on when things get tough.

What've you got to lose?

Ever notice that the best part of a holiday treat isn’t actually eating it...

The best part is the anticipation leading up to it!​​​​​​​

It's like that cookie exchange you and your friends have been planning all week? 

Somehow, those cookies end up tasting better in your imagination than they do in real life.

Funny how anticipation works, right?

So here we are in the holidays.

And it's a minefield packed with challenges as irresistible as they are delicious.

Everywhere you turn... it's temptation.

Cookies piled high at the office. Big family dinners you can’t escape. Drinks that insist on refilling themselves.

And let’s be honest, we’ve all made those promises to “be good” only to watch it all unravel.

But think about this… maybe the key isn’t swearing off treats or dodging the dessert table? 

Maybe the key is leaning into the lead-up!

Think about it.

The magic of the holidays isn’t just about the cookies on your plate. 

It’s the smells. 

The anticipation. 

The story you tell yourself about what’s coming.

Here’s a scenario for you—

You’re at a party. The dessert table is stacked, and every treat has your name on it.

But instead of diving in, you pause.

You tell yourself, “Ehh. Not yet. I'll hold off for a minute.”

So you sip your drink, chat with friends, and soak it all in.

And when you finally grab that treat, it’s not just dessert anymore.

It’s a moment.

And in that moment, you’re calm. You're in control. And you're actually enjoying it.

Feels way different than the stress of avoiding everything, doesn’t it?

Anticipation is your secret weapon.

It’s not about saying no—it’s about saying “not yet.”

And that tiny shift of what we tell ourselves turn impulsive moments into intentional moments.

So… how would your holiday season look if you made anticipation part of your plan?

Tune in and let's dig into this strategy and share how you can make this your most mindful—and satisfying—season yet.

What've you got to lose?

So picture this: 

You’re halfway through a hike, cruising along, when suddenly you realize you’re off the trail.

"Oh, no!" 

Your heart drops.

You look around, but nothing looks familiar.

Do you panic and keep walking, hoping you'll find the path? 

Or do you stop, take a breath, and think about your next move?

Now, maybe you’ve never gotten lost on a hike.

But if you’re like me, or just about anyone, you’ve definitely felt lost when it comes to health and fitness.

You start the day hopeful, positive, ready to do the thing. And then—somewhere along the way—you miss the mark.

You skip a workout. 

You overdo it at dinner.

And suddenly, it feels like everything’s falling apart.

"Ugh! Why did I let this happen?"

Then that urge to either quit or overcorrect kicks in.

But here’s the thing:

The mistake isn't what matters. What matters is how you respond to it.

Instead of spiraling out of control, what if you paused? Took a sip of water. Took a deep breath...

And said to yourself, "I’m off track, but no need to stress. A few simple steps and I'll be back."

Okay, now imagine you’re back on that hike.

You stop and notice a landmark—a familiar tree, maybe a stream.

You use it to guide yourself back to the trail.

In fitness, those landmarks could be your morning routine, a go-to healthy meal, or even just texting your coach.

Small, simple steps bring you back faster than you think.

It’s not about perfection.

It’s about staying present, recovering quickly, and knowing mistakes are just part of it.

Even the greatest aren’t perfect.

Steph Curry, arguably the best shooter in NBA history, misses more than half his shots.

Half!

But he doesn’t stop to dwell on it.

He moves to the next play.

That’s the mindset we all need.

Not dwelling. Not stopping.

Just moving to the next play.

So what’s your move when your diet takes a wrong turn and you feel lost?

We’re breaking this all down and giving you simple, powerful strategies to help you bounce back and keep moving forward.

What've you got to lose?

Feelings are great… 

Well, until they start acting like they’re in charge.

​​​​​​​Then, not so much.

So the question we have to ask is:

Who’s really running the show here—you or your feelings?

Sometimes we all feel stuck, tired, or overwhelmed. And the easiest choice in those moments?

Let your feelings call the shots. 

“Not today. Maybe later. Tomorrow sounds better.”

But here’s something to think about:

What if, instead of waiting for the right mood, you created it yourself—just by taking a single action?

So let me paint a picture:

It’s late at night. You’re standing in front of the fridge, staring at the same shelves you’ve seen a hundred times before.

And the pull of your nightly snack routine kicks in.

You’re about to grab that bowl of ice cream.

But this time... you don’t.

This time, you make a bowl of fruit instead.

It’s a small move, sure.

It feels almost insignificant, I get it.

But suddenly, you’ve done something different.

And doing something different? It changes everything. It sets the tone for the rest of the night.

And here's how:

Action changes feelings.

It’s so much easier to act your way into a new way of feeling than it is to think or feel your way into a new way of acting.

Because waiting until you feel like it? Shoot, might as well be waiting for lightning to strike.

So today. Or tonight. When your feelings want to run the show, what’s your move gonna be?

Tune in, and we'll show you how to change your habits—and your mindset—with one small step.

What've you got to lose?

Imagine carrying a secret so small, but so heavy, that it quietly sabotages every goal you set.

Lemme explain.

Let's say you start strong, you're logging your meals, making good choices, sticking to the plan...

But then the day winds down. 

You’re on the couch, finally getting a chance to relax, and a little voice whispers, "Go ahead. You’ve earned it."

So you grab a spoon and ice cream.

“It’s just ice cream,” you tell yourself. “No big deal. No one has to know.”

So you don’t log it. You don’t tell anyone.

Then it happens again. And again.

And before you know it, those small secrets pile up. 

And suddenly, the weight of carrying 'em feels heavier than any number on the scale.

Here’s the thing—

It’s not the ice cream, the skipped workout, or even the bad day that’s holding you back.

It’s the weight of everything you've been holding in.

It’s the secrets.

What you hide holds power over you. 

And you know this already, don’t you? That guilt—that constant, gnawing feeling—is uncomfortable.

It's terrible.

But the good news is progress doesn’t require perfection—it requires honesty. 

The moment you let go of the secret, you free yourself to move forward.

One client told me she was ready to quit—not because she didn’t care, but because she felt overwhelmed by the gap between where she was and where she wanted to be.

She didn’t feel committed. Not really. Deep down, she thought, "What’s the point of doing this if I’m not even being honest?"

She was holding back about her evening snacking. She hid it from her coach and from herself, and the guilt piled up like a stack of unopened bills.

Finally, she let it out.

She opened up.

She got honest.

It wasn’t easy. It was vulnerable and uncomfortable. But... it was freeing! 

So, what’s the secret you’re holding onto? 

What would it feel like to finally let it go? 

Tune in and let's talk about how embracing honesty—not willpower—can be the key to unlocking it all.

What've you got to lose?

Feel that? 

It's the holiday pressure creeping up on us.

And it's whispering, “Things are 'bout to get wild around here. Let's hold off on everything till January.”

But hold up.

That voice? It’s lying to you!

You DON’T need things to line up perfectly.

You DON’T need endless free time, a calm schedule, or the right time to show up.

Nobody’s going to gift-wrap extra time for you. Nobody’s putting “perfect moments” under the tree.

And if you’re waiting for it, you’re wasting precious time.

We’re here to tell you this season is prime time for one thing: showing up—even when life gets crazy. 

This season isn’t about getting it "right."

It’s about picking up that weighted bat—that heavier, tougher practice bat that makes the regular swing feel like a breeze later on.

It’s about holding on, staying flexible, and getting through the holidays.

And guess what? The holiday chaos, the packed calendar, the holiday meals. They’re not obstacles... 

They’re your training ground!

This is your shot to do the gritty work. One could even say this is your shot to do the REAL work.

You don't make progress waiting around for New Year’s Day. You make progress by adapting.

Not enough time for a full workout? Take 10 minutes. Make it count. Find a small step you can take, right now, that keeps you moving. 

Our mantra till January is: 

It's not “all or nothing”—it’s “always something.” 

And, if you live by that, then come January, you’ll feel lighter, stronger, ready.

Listen, the holiday season isn’t going to wait—and neither should you.

So if you’re ready to face down the holidays with us, tune in.

We’re taking on the season with a weighted bat, and we’re bringing you along.

What've you got to lose?

We’ve all got a “monster” lurking. 

Maybe you hear it in that voice whispering, “C’mon, one more snack.”

Or maybe you feel it in that all too-comfortable routine...

The one where you’re reaching for that bite of chocolate after dinner.

And the problem with these monsters? They sure are sneaky.

They know exactly when to show up—and it always seems to be when we’re trying to eat better, move more, or finally make a change.

Ever caught yourself saying, “Nah, not today. I’ll start Monday,” or “This weekend doesn’t count”?

I bet you have 'cause diet monsters? They want you to wait. To hold off for that magic moment when you finally “feel” ready.

And to be fair, they are convincing. 

Because the thought of committing... Ugh! It feels like we’re signing up to face that monster every single day from here on out.

But here’s the truth: there’s serious power in doing something just once.

Picture this—

You’re winding down after a long day, and the craving for that usual snack is right there, calling to you...

You’re cozy, relaxed, and every part of you is saying, “Tomorrow. I’ll make the change tomorrow.”

But just this once, you try something different.

You skip the snack, brush your teeth, and settle in for the night.

And the next morning? You wake up feeling a little lighter, a bit more energized, and—yeah—pretty dang proud of yourself.

That’s what I call the “Power of One.” 

It’s NOT a lifetime commitment. 

It’s NOT a forever change. 

It’s ONE small action (right here, right now) that shows you what you’re capable of.

When you take on just one hard thing, you tap into something you didn’t even know you had.

Today, we’re breaking down how to use the “Power of One” to take down those monsters, one small victory at a time.

So, here’s the question: Are you ready to see where this leads?

Tune in and let’s find out. Because here, no one faces their monsters alone.

What've you got to lose?

Ever get a gut-punch of guilt?

You swore you’d log what you ate… but didn’t.

Promised yourself you’d finally get a workout in… and, well, didn’t.

Or maybe... it’s been a few days since you last checked in with your coach.

And what do you feel now? Guilt!

That knot in your stomach. That mental weight dragging you down. Not exactly the highlight of your day, is it?

So, what now? You’re feeling guilty. What’s your next move?

Do you ghost everyone holding you accountable? Beat yourself up for a week, then swear you’ll “get serious” this time around?

Yeah, those are options. But let’s be real—they’re not actually gonna help.

What we really need is to change how we think about guilt.

And this is what I want to dig into, because maybe—just maybe—guilt isn’t the bad guy.

Think about it: guilt is useful.

It’s like an alarm going off. A wake-up call shouting, “Hey! You don’t wanna go there.” So instead of dodging it... maybe it’s time to pay attention.

Maybe it’s saying something like, “How about you cut yourself some slack?” or “Isn’t it about time to focus on what’s actually doable?”

If guilt is something you’ve been wrestling with, this is for you.

We’re laying out surprisingly simple ways to make guilt work for you instead of against you.

So if you’re ready to drop the guilt and find a way that actually sticks, dive in.

What've you got to lose?

Ever hit the bed and your brain decides it’s time to remind you of everything you didn’t do today?

The missed workout. 

The meal plan that fell off a cliff.

Yeah? Me too.

But—what if you stopped stressing about checking off every box and started asking yourself just one simple question:

How do I want to feel when my head hits the pillow tonight?

Think about that for a second.

Suddenly, it’s not about getting everything "right." It’s about aiming for your intention.

No perfect plan needed. No rigid routine. 

Now, picture this—

You start your day off by jotting down a few quick thoughts about how you want to feel tonight.

These aren’t your boring ol’ to-dos. These are your Rocky Notes.

Writing down how you want to feel sounds simple, right? But don’t be fooled—this stuff’s seriously powerful.

Here’s why: 

When you lock in on your intentions, you get flexibility. So when life throws its usual chaos at you (and it will!), you can roll with it—no guilt, no losing sight of the bigger picture.

Want to know how to use the Rocky Notes method to completely change your health and fitness?

Well, tune in. You’re gonna love this.

What've you got to lose?

Most of us would rather avoid discomfort, right?

We think, “This is too hard."

Or maybe we say, "I’m just not cut out for this.”

But get this: discomfort isn’t the enemy.

You know that uneasy feeling you get when you're up against a tough food choice? 

It's a feeling you’d rather avoid, but deep down... you know it’s the right move. That feeling is not failure. It’s not weakness.

It’s progress.

Discomfort is actually the best signal that you’re on the right track, taking control, and moving toward real change.

So, what if you stopped running from discomfort and leaned into it instead?

And what if reframing discomfort is the key to making real progress?

You see, discomfort is proof that you’re stepping into accountability, owning your decisions, and moving closer to your goals. And accountability isn’t about guilt or punishment—it’s about realizing that you have the power to shape the outcome.

We’re going to show you how shifting your perspective on discomfort can unlock results you never thought possible. And we're showing you how to embrace the challenge, own your progress, and use accountability to your advantage.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated, or overwhelmed, this is for you. 

Because that uncomfortable feeling you’ve been avoiding? It’s actually your greatest asset.
