In this episode of Modern Body, Modern Life, I’m talking about something that held me back for years — and keeps so many women stuck: all-or-nothing thinking.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re either on or off, good or bad, perfect or failing when it comes to your eating, workouts, or health habits — this episode is for you. I share how I broke free from that exhausting cycle and how you can too.

I’ll walk you through why perfectionism and diet culture have trained us to believe that being “all in” is the only way to see results — and why that couldn’t be further from the truth. You’ll hear real examples from my own journey and from clients who’ve found peace and freedom by focusing on progress, not perfection.

💬 What you will learn

• How the all-or-nothing mindset sneaks into our thinking
• Why perfectionism feels productive — but really keeps us stuck
• The mindset that helps my clients lose weight and think about food less

🌟 My Big Takeaways

• Trying to be perfect is a big part of the problem.
• You can become the healthiest version of myself without being perfect.
• Dessert tastes better when it’s not served with a side of shame.
• Choosing my discomfort on purpose — that’s where the growth happens.
