301: Workshop - Eliminating Excuses Feb 25, 2017

Show notes

Today we're tackling "the gap" - the space between where you are and where you want to be or between what you intend to do and what you actually do.

In that gap are your excuses.

This is a bit of a workshop episode on eliminating excuses. Once you do that, you close the gap between your ideal and your reality.

It's time to stop accepting and believing your excuses. It's time to eliminate them.

299: Enjoying Food Without Regret Feb 21, 2017

Show notes

Have you ever felt like you either enjoy the full spectrum of food or you're missing out? That it's either one or the other and there's no middle ground?

I've been there! But enjoying food without regret is absolutely possible!

Today I'm sharing a conversation with one of my clients who is learning to do just that. She comes from an Italian family where food & drink was not just fuel but a way of life! Plus, she owns a bar so she's around food & drinks pretty much all day!

Not only has she lost 30 pounds, she's teaching herself how to enjoy food, life, alcohol and still feel great about herself and her goals. Don't miss her story!

298: Turn Thinking Into Doing Feb 18, 2017

Show notes

Many of us spend an absurd amount of time thinking. We want to understand our behavior.

We want to craft a perfect plan.

We ask a million questions about our choices, decisions and lack of motivation.

It's time to turn thinking into doing so we can use our precious energy in a way that gets results.

Todays episode is just that: how to turn thinking into doing. Let's go!

297: Parenting, Perspective & Progress Feb 16, 2017

Show notes

I'm pumped for today's episode! I'm sharing a coaching conversation I had with one of my Fat Loss Fast Track clients and we're covering everything from parenting to perspective and her progress in creating a sustainable anti-diet approach to fat loss.

I think there's a lot you can relate to her in her story - she's a working mom & wife who has struggled with her weight for decades. She has lost weight and put it all back on, but she's made a shift in her approach to health & food.

We have a really candid conversation about stress, setting an example, and not manufacturing drama by engaging in problems that aren't hers to bear.

I'm super grateful that she was willing to share this story with all of you and I know it will be a great encouragement and challenge to each of you!

294: How To Bounce Back Feb 09, 2017

Show notes

The other day I was in the middle of a hard workout and I thought of a lesson I learned from one of my past trainers (and great friend), Nathan Keil.

See, I used to use the transition from one exercise to another as a build in pause or rest. Whether it was 5 seconds or a minute, it was a built-in rest.

One day, during a particularly intense workout, Nathan said, "go immediately to the first rep of the next movement. No rest. No pause. Get to the next rep as fast as possible".

Even if I just did one rep of the next thing, the point was to break the habit of that pause.

After my workout, I realized just how applicable this is to life.

Let's say you eat something you wish you hadn't or don't feel too proud of. Isn't it so common to hem and haw about how to get back on track? How to bounce back? We use the transition as pause.

We overthink and overcomplicate.

What if we just got to the next great choice as fast as possible? No thinking, no planning, no strategizing. Just get to the next great choice as fast as possible.

Don't miss today's short episode to figure out how you can bounce back faster and take your performance to the next level.

293: How To Stop Drifting From Your Goals Feb 07, 2017

Show notes

I think we can all relate to periods of focus & determination as well as periods of avoidance and not doing the work.

The transition between those two periods begins with drifting. It might start as a slow drift but we gradually turn our attention away from our focus & our goals.

So how do you stop drifting?

Even when you aren't enthusiastically doing the work, how can you avoid the drift that precedes a period of avoidance?

Don't miss today's episode to learn more about how YOU drift and how you can learn to stay!

"Those who stay will become champions"

292: How Are You Complicit In Your Problems? Feb 04, 2017

Show notes

In today's podcast I pose a question for you to consider: how are you complicit in your problem?

How are you complicit in creating the conditions of your life that you say you don't want?

We're so quick to point to the things we're doing to make positive changes and we're even quicker to identify how external circumstances hold us back.

But what's your part?

Today I'll be diving into this question and also challenging you to flip the script and identify ways you can be complicit in creating the circumstances and accomplishments you DO want.
