This week I'm a little under the weather, but I decided to record an episode anyway because I want to share the 3 word phrase I am using to take more ownership in 2022. Shout out to Coach Mike Milner for the inspiration here, and I hope you find this episode useful!

Season 6 | Episode 8

This week I am diving in on a particularly nefarious form of self-sabotage: perfectionism. This is one of the most common problems I see in my transformation coaching, and I just had great, deep dive conversations with one my clients about how perfectionism was holding them back and some strategies we laid out to help overcome it. I hope you find it useful!

In this week’s episode I wanted to dive into a topic that is of particular importance right now. It's the new year, and there are SO many people out there shilling their solution for weight loss in 2022, and frankly a lot of them are complete BS sold by underqualified and/or unscrupulous people looking to turn a quick buck when they know the market is full of people looking for solutions. I get into my Top 10 Red Flags that should make you think twice before signing up a nutrition/exercise program or coach, as well as a few tips on what you should look.

In this HIGHLY anticipated episode, I welcome in my friend Dr. Sarah Summers for my FIRST ever IN PERSON interview on the Platform Podcast. I waited until Sarah and I could interview in person since our shared love of musical theater (Hamilton in particular) and singing, really can't be captured well on Zoom. Sarah is a member of THE Team Riddlestruck in Canada, and has a doctorate in history from UNC Chapel Hill. Fair warning, we nerd out HARD in act 1 of this interview, but it was truly a joy to have Sarah on and I hope the joy permeates the episode for you too!

"True strength is about your ability to be courageous looking at yourself & to love in the moment." 

In this episode, I got to go deep with Brittany van Schravendjik who anyone in the kettlebell sport world knows by name because her resume of accomplishment is as distinguished as nearly any American lifter. But we didn't record this episode to focus on what she accomplished in kettlebell sport, but instead why she decided she had to STOP lifting and walk away from the thing she was most well known for. This was such an insightful and fun conversation about where the drive for achievement can come from, the double edged-sword of external validation, and the hard work of exploring the dark corners of our own psyches. I hope you enjoy it!
