Today we have guest Charlotte, you can find her on instagram as @cb_fitness93. We chat about what it's like being a female coach in the fitness industry and our experiences of building our businesses online. We both put a huge emphasis on mental health with the clients we work with so we talk through this in more detail and why it's such an important part of our businesses. 

Working from home or being furloughed either has us feeling like we have 101 things to do and not enough hours in the day or that there’s nothing to do and you have no idea how to fill your time. Either way, in this episode I chat a little about how you can use routine to better your time management and feel less overwhelmed by everything that’s going on.

In a society where everything is deemed useless unless we instantly get an outcome, learn to trust the process and be patient with seeing change. Results don’t happen overnight and too many of us expect to drop 3 stone in a week. It simply won’t happen and I remind you of this in this episode.
However, I also go over the times where instant gratification can play an important role in our adherence and success. We just have to know when it is and isn’t applicable!

We spend our lives comparing our bodies, careers, relationships, houses, family’s etc to those we see on social media but we fail to remember no one share’s their down days. Today I talk about how comparison is the thief of joy particularly when it comes to our training and lifestyle progress. 
We need to remember that we will never be someone else so comparing ourselves and our journey to them does nothing in helping us improve. 

Today I talk about something most of us aren’t very good at; listening to our body. We’ve brought up in a generation of 100mph and we often forget to slow down, unwind and rest and the same can be said for our training. Rest is so important for us to make progress and I talk about this in this episode. 
Sometimes we'll see more benefits if we listen to our body and take a day or two off than just keep on pushing. The 'grind' culture of today's idea of success just isn't sustainable in personal, career or your fitness journey. 

In this episode I talk about some home truths as to why you aren’t seeing results. Sometimes we have to really dig deep and evaluate ourselves and our actions in order to find the real reason. We can use this to our advantage to inspire change or we can use it as an excuse to continue on the same path. The choice is yours. 

In this episode I'll be chatting about why we should always aim to be consistent rather than to be perfect; aiming for perfection is setting ourselves up for failure and when we're unable to maintain perfection we often feel like we've lost and give up. If we can flip this mindset to aiming for consistency, we cannot lose. All we can do is be better than the day before.

We usually use the excuse of "but my family don't support my ideas" for anything we want to do- weight loss, career change, starting a new hobby etc. In this episode I talk about why we don't always need the support of those closest to us in order to do something different. And also a little about why sometimes we feel our family don't support us where actually it's their way of trying to protect us.

As always, I'd love if you could leave a review!
