When you think about self-discipline do you think about punishment, restriction, and being boring?

What if I told you that self-discipline isn’t any of those things? It’s actually about freedom, adaptation, novelty and the biggest acts of self-love you can give yourself…

Blows your mind to think of it that way, doesn’t it?

In today’s podcast episode, I talk about getting clear on your future self and why being disciplined and pushing yourself above your baseline is an act of self-love. I offer you a different way to look at discipline and the importance of setting standards for yourself. I share how to know if you are ‘on the right path’ and why so many of us having trouble with commitment.

WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER

Why you need to push yourself above your baseline
Getting clear on your future self
How stoicism views self-discipline
Why self-discipline isn’t about being restrictive, non-spontaneous, and boring
The importance of setting standards for yourself
Why I don’t agree with the big movement around self-acceptance and self-love
What self-acceptance means to me
How to tell if you’re on the right path
The importance of patience, small constant actions and high-value future decisions
Why do we have trouble committing to things and how we can overcome it

My guest today, is Jessie Brebner. Jessie is a certified Symptothermal Method Instructor with the Natural Family Planning Teachers Association of the United Kingdom.

In today’s EP, I’m joined by Madisen (AKA The Gut Goddess). Madisen has a Master of Science in Holistic Nutrition and is Primal Health Coach. She spent a decade of her life trying to ‘heal her gut’ - doing all the restrictive gut healing diets (everything from vegan to carnivore), spending thousands of dollars on supplements, and bouncing around from practitioner to practitioner, all to be left with lingering bloating, loose stools, acne, fatigue, a long list of foods to avoid and no hope she would ever feel normal again.

In 2016, she completed started her Master of Science in Holistic Nutrition, and soon after started working with a coach. It was during this time that she learned all about the nervous system, hormones, stress and metabolism and how they ALL impact the gut. She now helps people heal their gut through her group coaching program and one-on-one coaching.
