Using the Compound Effect to Reach Your Goals Jan 13, 2022

Show notes

I'm going to start this episode off by sharing a few stats with you on new years resolutions… Of those who make a New Year's resolution, after 1 week 75% are still successful in keeping it. After two weeks, the number drops to 71%. After 1 month, the number drops again to 64%. And after 6 months, 46% of people who make a resolution are still successful in keeping it. In comparison, of those people who have similar goals but do not set a resolution, only 4% are still successful after 6 months. Don't let yourself become a statisitic. In order to do this, we need to break our all or nothing mentality. That's why I want to chat with you about the compound effect and how this can help you break that mentality.

Real Talk on Building Confidence in 2022 Jan 10, 2022

Show notes

The other day girl asked me on a Q&A "How did you become so confident" and quite frankly I told her that for years and years, I would try to read other thoughts from "guru's" on confidence and I always found myself in the same place, hating my body, hating myself and never feeling like enough. Until I came to the realization: I, myself am not enough, I never have been enough and never will never be enough, but God…God is enough, He always was, always will be and that's why I and you listening can live in confidence. I saw this quote the other day, and couldn't agree more with it: "Confidence comes when God's thoughts about yourself become the ONLY ones that matter." I wanted to share that first because although practical advice that I am about to share with you can be helpful, but understanding the profound truth that ultimate and lasting confidence comes from God is the most important! Jeremiah 17:7 says "but blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, who's confidence is in Him" Again this message here is that we don't need to stress so much about our own weaknesses. We don't have to be the smartest, or most successfull or most productive or the "most" anything… Our job is to do our best and trust that the Lord will work though that. With that being stated first, tune into this episode for some other reminders I wanted to share with you. P.S: If you are wanting to take steps towards honoring your body this year, I want to personally invite you to my 4-Week Honor Your Body Challenge that starts on Monday January 17th! This 4 week challenge designed to help you commit or re-commit to honoring your body through movement, macros and mindset! It is a great way for anyone looking at starting the new year strong with their health. Starting off on an accelerated path will give momentum that can last all year long! Sign up here.

Show notes

I know you've heard me talk about gratitude practices before and how it's something I prioritize daily. I know you've also heard everyone else talk about it, too. I know many of you probably think it's just this fluffy practice that won't actually help, or that it sounds great but in reality you don't think it will actually help change they way you feel in your life. For all of you who feel this way, I have put this episode together to prove you wrong!

I'm going to dive into WHY gratitude is so powerful and why you should stop overlooking it as a daily habit you practice. I personally think my gratitude practice is just as important as nourishing my body with what it needs and honoring my body with movement.
