Tips to Stop Beating Yourself Up So Much on Your Weight Loss Journey
Understanding Your Physical & Emotional Roller Coaster Of Your Fitness & Weight Loss Journey
Self Care Isn't Selfish-Why You Struggle to Take Care of Yourself Consistently
In this episode, I break down why you may tend to struggle with taking care of yourself and your health consistently, despite feeling like you "know what to do".
If despite knowing all about calories, macros, lifting, and cardio, and even possibly having the perfect plan, you tend to feel like it's hard to still take care of yourself, or when you do, you feel guilty for it, this episode is for you!
I help you learn to understand yourself, your thoughts, your habits, and your relationships with others, to help you understand your relationship with your health, fitness, and weight loss journey better, all so that you can finally gain the confidence you truly want and the progress you want on your health and fitness journey.
I talk about co-dependency, and anxious attachment theory, and relate it the struggles you have on your weight loss and health journey, so that you can learn why you tend to struggle to take care of yourself, why you feel as if you always just need to restrict more, why you have a hard time feeling proud of yourself , or why you feel the need to do more cardio to lose weight, and why you beat yourself up so much when you do fall off track.
Truly understanding your relationship to your health, weight loss, and fitness goal may be the missing piece in finally having the body, confidence, and transformation you truly want.
Stay tuned for part 2 next week where i'll talk about how to start improving on these things, as well!

The Benefits of Different Types of Exercise on Your Weight Loss & Fitness Journey
Way back when I used to think that if my workouts didn’t cause me be sore, sweaty, exhausted, or didn’t have a high enough calorie burn….that they were a waste.
I struggled with the all or nothing mentality surrounding my workouts, and was such a perfectionist that I wouldn’t work out at all if my workouts couldn’t be 2 hours.
As my journey went on, I knew that lifting weights was the best way for me to lose body fat, gain muscle, and get stronger, and I learned that I didn’t have to do so much cardio to have effective workouts.
I found the beauty in my physical strength after years of trying to be as small as possible.
But as I got older, and life gave me different day to day demands, I started to explore additional forms of exercise that made me feel good, strong, and best of all…allowed me to not JUST focus on my what my body looked like, but what it was capable of doing.
Another great thing, I learned what types of exercise truly helped me manage stress and anxiety, and helped me be the overall more calm person I want to be.
Through learning more about myself, I gained confidence.
I learned the benefits of all of the 3 different types of exercise I share with you in the episode, and the purpose they each serve me in my life, body, health, and mental health.

The Missing Piece to Your Workouts For Better Progress-Day 1
Life & Business Update!
Ways Your Lack of Confidence Shows on Your Weight Loss Journey.....that have NOTHING to do with what your body looks like!
When I first set out on my weight loss journey, I only thought of confidence had to do with what my body looked like. Fit enough, "toned" enough, hot enough....I thought that the more I felt confident with my body, the more confident I would be as a woman.
& while yes, feeling better in your clothes and with your physical body can make you feel great, especially if you've always picked yourself apart or feel like you have to cover up every ounce of your self perceived 'flaws'....
I want you to learn ways your lack of confidence show up on your weight loss journey that have NOTHING TO DO with what your body looks like.
I know how all of this feels, & I want you to know, that you are deserving of not just changing your body to how you want it to be, but also to have the confidence with yourself and your life that you truly want.
You do so much for others, you love everyone, you want others to be happy, but when's the last time you were happy and felt like you were thriving?

The Truth About Talking To Our Husbands, BF's, or Significant Others About Our Weight Loss Goal
This episode of the LIFT NOURISH & THRIVE podcast is all about talking to our significant others about our weight loss goal. The need for support, feeling like we have to talk to them about investing in a program, or something that we want.
It’s a common struggle many women experience, and I have, too. & because of this, many women are held back from FULLY reaching their weight loss goals.
“ I have to talk to my husband”.
This is mostly said before a woman, or potential client, decides to invest into my coaching to not only help them lose weight, but learn the tools needed to keep it off.
While the finance talk with our husbands are VERY real, trust me, I know. From March when COVID hit until June, we lived off my husbands salary alone, after I was furloughed from my Exercise Physiologist/Physical Therapy Assistant Position. Yes, I still had my coaching business but at the time, it was not replacing my income from that job. It sucked. Shit was HARD. & we're still navigating through it.
BUT....This episode will teach you how to navigate this challenging topic with more ease.

HEY YOU! When's the LAST TIME you were PROUD of YOURSELF on your weight loss journey?
It’s easy to get caught up in the end game.
The goal weight. The goal pant size. The goal look....on our #weight loss journey.
But when’s the last time you recognized where you are right now and what you’ve already accomplished thus far?
When’s the last time you stopped wishing for the end, but remembered that the right now is just as important to get you TO that end goal?
Listen for #motivation, #empowerment, and a kick in the butt to stop being such a bitch to yourself.

FEELING STUCK ON YOUR WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY? LISTEN TO THIS!
If you’re struggling right now on your weight loss journey….you may be wondering how to get off the struggle bus.
Maybe you’re looking for the next thing to try, going back to something you’ve done in the past, or struggling to do the things you need to do all together.
Often, when this happens though, is we start to get comfortable.
I call this getting comfortable in our shit.
We so want out of it, but yet, it’s comfortable.
So if you’re struggling with being in the shit right now, I want you to ask yourself this…
- How long have I been here?
- & why am I still here?
Be honest with yourself, learn to place blame on others. Be true to yourself.
& remember this, staying deep in our own struggles gets us no where but another seat on the struggle bus.
& by staying on that struggle bus, not only are you disrespecting yourself…
But you’re also disrespecting everyone else in your world that possibly make up you ‘why’ behind you wanting to accomplish your weight loss goals and make this a ‘lifestyle.’

The REAL MISSING Piece to Why You're Not Getting the Results You Want
The REAL missing piece to why you’re not getting the RESULTS you want
*
Let’s be honest, here.
*
How easy is it to skip your workout?
*
How easy is it tell yourself “Ok today is the day I get my shit together”, just for the next day to come and to not make any change?
*
How easy is it tell yourself you want to attend a free training, or do a free workout, just to not attend all together because you forgot or something came up?
*
How easy it to forget you spend 5.99 a month on a workout app?
*
It’s also pretty easy to find a workout on Youtube, or here on IG, promising you the results you want, trying them, and then giving up when you’re not getting the results you want.
*
Lastly, it’s also pretty easy to always view things in a subjective manner, colored by your personal feelings, rather than viewing things from an objective manner, that are unbiased, factual, and verifiable.
*
Having accountability on our weight loss journey is CRUCIAL to getting the results we want.
*
Without accountability, its super easy to give up on ourselves
*
Having accountability allows for consistency aka the end to always falling off track.
*
That’s why, I’m excited to announce that the LIFT NOURISH & THRIVE COLLECTIVE is now open for enrollment.
*
My small group coaching program, provides you accountability and is the piece that has been missing for you.

*

What if I told you, that your ability to achieve all those amazing things I mentioned;
*
Can actually happen for you.
*
By deciding and acting on it. BUT...
*
By understanding, that if you keep getting back on track in the ways that you’ve always tried;
*
Those ways you can’t stick to...
*
Means, that those ways aren’t getting you closer to your weight loss goal, but actually so much farther from it.

MANAGE YOUR SUPERWOMAN! HARD SHIT I WENT THROUGH, THAT YOU MAY BE GOING THROUGH, TOO.
HARD SHIT I WENT THROUGH THAT YOU MAY BE GOING THROUGH, TOO.
*
Last week, I went through some challenging shit.
*
As we all are experiencing some challenging times right now, in our own different ways, this situation, felt a bit different to me.
*
I was really forced to have to manage my superwoman mentality, and really had to get comfortable, with taking a step back, to make sure that before I took care of others needs, that I also, took care of myself, mentally, and emotionally.
*
Why is that when we know we need to do something for ourself?
*
It's so hard?
*
But for others, we don't hesitate?
*
I hope this episode gives you the courage to always take care of yourself, in however the way, that serves you best.
*
The people in your life, need the healthiest and happiest version of you. So to take care of them, it's important to take care of yourself.
*
This episode will teach you the awareness you need for yourself as a woman, to be the best woman that you want to be, and to show up in this world as a woman who knows herself well, and treats herself with respect.
*
If you resonate with this episode, let me know and share with me what you were able to take away from today's episode of the LIFT NOURISH THRIVE PODCAST.

WHY YOU NEED TO TAKE A REST DAY- EVEN ON YOUR WEIGHT LOSS GOAL.
Who here has ever struggled with taking a rest day on your weight loss goal?
*
You've been told " no days off".
*
"No pain, no gain".
*
You've been taught to believe, that if you don't take a rest day, you're not as "fit".
*
That you're not good enough.
*
You won't lose the weight you want.
*
You won't accomplish your weight loss goal.
*
You're scared to eat on your rest day, and fear possibly weighing yourself.
*
The thought of taking a rest day makes you feel anxious.
*
You justify saying, " Well, it makes me feel better when I workout".
*
Which maybe, it does.
*
But, you know, deep down, you are only working out because of your thoughts of ;
*
" Well if I don't workout, I'll feel guilty".
*
You're worried you will lose all of your progress.
*
& that the rest day will cause you to fall off track.
*
In this episode of the LIFT NOURISH & THRIVE PODCAST;
*
I break down;
*
Physical and mental signs you need to take a rest day.
*
Why you fear taking the rest day.

& why taking a rest day, will help you make the progress that you really want.

HOW TO STOP COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHER WOMEN ON YOUR WEIGHT LOSS GOAL
HOW TO STOP COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHER WOMEN ON YOUR WEIGHT LOSS GOAL
*
You walk into the gym, feeling ready to take on your work out, and your weight loss goal.
*
You're feeling 'motivated' and ready to make this week 'different'.
*
Feeling like today is going to be different because you're getting back on track after a falling off with your 'diet' and workouts' last week.
*
You're going about your workout...
*
When you notice the other woman next to you in the gym.
*
"Wow, she's so much prettier than me".
*
She's squatting 135 pounds, and I'm squatting 95. She's so much stronger than me.
*
"She's faster".
*
"She's burning more calories on the bike than me".
*
"She's lost weight so quickly! Why haven't I lost as much weight as her?!"
*
"I'm doing everything right!"
*
You hear all the women in your office talking about how much weight their losing doing this type of workout and this type of diet....
*
& you sit there, compare your meals to hers & your body....
*
& think yourself...
*
Am I eating too many carbs?
*
Not doing enough cardio?
*
Who's had these thoughts before?
*
Here is how to stop comparing yourself to other women on your weight loss goal...
*
Remember this, everyone's journey, is THEIR JOURNEY!
*
Comparing yourself to others, only will distract you from what matters the most.
*
Yourself!
*
Imagine being SO focused on yourself, your body, your workout, your weight loss goal, your meals & your strength...
*
That you then make all of the progress that you've been working so hard for, instead of focusing on "everything she's doing".
*
Being so focused on yourself, when you struggle to remember how capable and far you've actually come.
*
So rather than comparing yourself to the woman next you;
*
Be so focused on yourself and your goals, that you don't care what the woman next to you is doing.
*
Have you ever compared yourself to another woman's weight loss journey before?

HOW I LOST 10 POUNDS THIS YEAR- & HOW YOU CAN, TOO! - IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK!
On this episode of the LIFT NOURISH & THRIVE PODCAST- I am sharing with you how I lost 10 pounds this year, and how you can possibly, too.

It's the shift I took with reframing the way I thought about my body.
