In this refreshingly honest episode of The Comeback Season, Nichole and Christi unpack the sneaky ways summer throws us off track—and why that happens more often than we’d like to admit. From disrupted routines and emotional eating to the all-or-nothing mindset that whispers, “I’ll start again in September,” this conversation explores the real reasons women struggle with consistency when life gets messy.

They dive into common summer slip-ups like skipped workouts, company in town, vacation-mode eating, and the belief that treats must always equal ice cream and indulgence. You’ll hear how perfectionism, guilt-avoidance, and outdated definitions of “treating yourself” sabotage progress, and why falling off isn’t failure—it’s a chance to find your rhythm.

This episode sets the stage for next week’s follow-up, where they’ll share practical tools to stay strong and aligned with your goals all summer long—without sacrificing joy, flexibility, or fun.
