Too many people start their fitness journey assuming perfection—no missed workouts, no cheat meals, no bad days. But the truth? Mistakes are part of the process. 

In this episode, I explain the difference between pre-framing and re-framing your mindset: 

• How to mentally prepare for inevitable setbacks
• Why expecting perfection sets you up for disappointment
• And how to bounce back quickly when things don’t go as planned

🎯 This mindset shift could be the key to finally sticking with your goals—because it’s not about being perfect, it’s about being prepared.

In just 60 seconds, I’m reminding you that progress doesn’t have to be massive to matter. Whether it’s one more rep, one more healthy meal, or one more walk around the block—it all adds up.

🎯 Stop chasing perfection and start celebrating consistency.
Because at the end of the day, a win is a win.

Think having a gym in your building will finally make you consistent? Think again. In this episode, I challenge the idea that convenience equals commitment. Just because the gym is close doesn’t mean the results will follow. 

We dive into the psychology behind excuses, the illusion of “just needing easier access,” and why true progress only happens when you choose to take action—regardless of how far the gym is. 

Stop waiting for the perfect setup. It’s not about proximity. It’s about priorities.

From a live workshop I did on how to get better sleep!

Struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling rested? This episode is your complete guide to better sleep. I share 9 expert-backed tips to help you optimize your bedtime routine, improve your sleep quality, and feel more energized throughout the day. Whether you’re dealing with stress, screen time, or inconsistent habits—this episode breaks down simple, effective changes you can make today. 

Stick around for the live Q&A at the end, where I answer real questions from real people about sleep struggles, routines, and what actually works in real life. 

Quick correction: I said 3-4 REM cycles, for 7-9 hours you should get around 5-6 cycles of REM.

Chasing greatness once in a while won’t get you results. Showing up consistently—even if it’s average—is what actually builds momentum. In this Power60, I break down why small, steady action always wins over rare intensity.
