Have you ever focused so hard on the number on the scale dropping...assuming that's where you will find happiness? Do you tend to associate a toned body with confidence and an overweight body with lack of it? You're definitely not alone!

In this episode I am talking about how to attain true happiness in your fitness journey... and it goes beyond body shapes and sizes. We are going to debunk the myth of equating fitness with happiness, proving that it's not about having the perfect body, but about nurturing a healthy relationship with food and recognizing your worth.

Why do we desire a smaller body? Why do we have a terrible relationship with food?  In the second part of this episode I talk about how our childhood eating habits and thoughts around food can affect our body image and relationship with food in adulthood. It's all tied together!

We're going to dig into these topics and help you understand that it's not just about food and exercise. It's crucial to realize the 'why' behind wanting the body of your dreams, and most importantly, how to create a loving and positive relationship with food and your body.

I get a little spicy in this episode!  I have been on my own fitness journey for 14 years and I have heard it all. So many comments and opinions on my body, the way I eat, the goals I have... all of it.

When I first started I thought everyone would be proud, want to join me and get fit too! Or at least be supportive... and I was wrong! It turns out people make fun of things they don't understand or are not willing to work for. (Ope... READ THAT AGAIN)

If you are on your own fitness journey you will encounter this negativity too and I want to give you a real perspective on my thoughts and some suggestions on how to handle it. And no.... my advice is not to ignore it or to roll over and take it!

Along your journey you will face judgement, comparison, criticism, defeat and more... from others and yourself. It's just the way it is. Learning to expect it,  navigate and handle it all when it comes is key!

I hope you enjoy my real thoughts and sass on this topic!

I know it's easy to think that if you are not seeing the results you want with your workouts that you need to push harder.... do more.  But does it every occur you that you might actually need to be doing less? Slowing down? Give your body a break?

We, as humans, need rest. I know, I know... I didn't want to believe this either. I learned the hard way that it's true.

I pushed too hard mentally and physically which led to anxiety, depression and autoimmune issues. If you are struggling with any of these things you just might need to slow down too.

In this episode I talk about the importance of slowing down, what that looks like and how it can benefit you. I know it's not easy ... I am giving you permission to slow down.

Macro tracking is one of the most confusing and daunting topics for my newer clients and for people that are new to fitness. It used to be very overwhelming for me too and it has taken me YEARS to figure out a way to approach macros in a way that is less time consuming and that works as a long term lifestyle.

Tracking is the best way to gain the knowledge you need about food. You learn so much about calories once you start tracking and seeing food for what it actually is.

Macro tracking is not a diet... it's understanding food and how it fuels your body. It's understanding fitness and not just "starting a diet".

Your mindset matters the most. Approaching macros with a positive mindset and knowing this is a lifelong journey is helpful in taking some of the pressure off.  So many people want to be perfect with tracking macros in the beginning and its just not possible. I have a few different ways that I think and ways that I track to make things super simple for me and I am super excited to be able to share them with you in this episode.

I spent a lot of years chasing weight loss... when what I really wanted was to change my body composition. If I knew then what I know now I would have saved myself years of stress from restricting foods, fearing carbs, endless cardio and hating on my body.

Sound familiar?

When you make your goal about more than weight loss it becomes easier, more enjoyable and is much better for your overall health. When you spend years under eating and stuck in the diet cycle it wreaks havoc on your body. Your metabolism and hormones suffer and therefore you cannot lose the weight or build the muscle you want.  You stay stuck and frustrated,

In this episode I explain body recomp and talk about the benefits. I also talk about my journey with my body and my journey of coaching other women through body recomp. I hope you enjoy hearing the truth from a few different angles.

If this sounds like something you would like to get started with I created a program that you can start today! BODY RECOMP is a 12 week programmed designed to take you through workout stages to change your body and macro targets designed to fuel your body, not starve it. And the best part is... I will walk you through the process!

BODY RECOMP PROGRAM IS AVAILABLE HERE

Your environment can be the reason you succeed or the reason you fail in your fitness journey.

In this episode I am not talking about morning routines, meal planning, etc, Those things do not work for me.

Let's dig deeper! The things you see and hear on social media, your home, your car, your friends... that is your environment. What you are surrounded by every single day has a huge effect on your mentality which affects you physically.

These are the things most people overlook in their fitness journey, in their life. A little clean up of your environment goes a long way.

I hope you enjoy this episode full of real talk and my own experiences of setting up my space for success.

I help my clients dig into these situations in my Private Coaching program. These little changes are the difference between failure and success. Your environment matters.

Mindset shifts are HUGE! Once you can think about your fitness journey in a way that makes sense to you the work becomes easier. A new outlook can really change the choices you make and those choices bring results.

I am sure you have heard the analogy: Walk, Crawl, Run. It's a great analogy! I took that and turned it into a Marathon mindset. A marathon is a very long race, very similar to your fitness journey.

You wouldn't just wake up one morning and decide to go run 26.2 miles without any prior training. There are steps that need to be taken to get your body ready for such a long race. Steps that will set you up for success. Preparation. 

You can use this "long distance" mindset in your fitness journey too. Once I started viewing my fitness journey the way I explain in this episode everything changed fro me and my body.

Buckle up for some real talk in this episode!

As someone who has struggled with inner confidence I often get sick of hearing or seeing cheesy quotes that make me think it should be easy to attain. Confidence wasn't easy for me and in this episode I talk about the real way to attain inner confidence. REAL confidence. The kind that you worked so hard for it would be impossible for anyone to rip it away from you!

Imagine what it would feel like to be so confident in yourself that even on your bad days you knew you were strong enough to handle it, you knew they would pass, that you would be fine.

That's what happens when you fail enough and still survive. That's what happens when you decide who you want to be and show up as HER... even if SHE is having a bad day.

Listen close to this episode as I dive into what it looks like to have inner confidence. It's not super sexy... but it's worth it!

I just turned 42 years old.  I don't think of  42 as "old" but I did grow up (for whatever reason) believing that we should naturally feel and/or look worse with age and that is simply not true.

In this episode I am talking about how I am able to stay fit and make fitness simple as I get older.

I do not worry about nutrition because I know exactly what to do.
I do not stress about missed workouts because my body trusts me.
I no longer live with a restrictive mindset ... and you don't have to either.

In this episode I go into detail about setting a good foundation, showing up even when I don't want to, consistency and I even talk about how this all helps me through some anxiety and depression.

Everything I know about fitness I learned the hard way and now that it's simple for me... I want to share the details with you.


This is possible for you too and working with a coach is the best way to expedite the process and hit your goals!
