Is it time to make the switch? @happyamycattaneo 👈 follow  Change is a constant, but knowing when to make a move can be tricky. Especially when it comes to switching out your personal care and household products.  If you feel like your current products are not helping but also might be adding to your health concerns, it might just be time to switch gears. When I made the switch like 14...

“The reason why you self-sabotage is because it allows you to predict what is going to happen, which is giving you the illusion of self control.” Saw this quote the other day and dayuuuummm…it sucker-punched me.  ANY time I have not done what I KNEW I should do it was because I didn’t want to feel out of control.  EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.  But it for damn sure is just an illusion becaus...

This is the year I finally do it. How many times have you told yourself that over the years? And each year, you start exactly where you started the following year. It's time to break the freakin cycle. Make this your best year yet by letting go of what you think you need to do. What exactly do you need to let go? Well I got five of them for you... Listen to my latest podcast, #149 to hear what the...

Waiting until January to start a new habit? Don't. It will leave you worse off than where are you right now. Why? Because the second you decide to push it out 2 months, you are sending a signal to yourself that all bets are off, and now is the time to "live it up". And the gap between where you are right now and where you want to go gets bigger and bigger. Come January, your goal has to be even lo...

You took the first major step...you hired a coach.   That's a fantastic start but it's just that...a start.   To get the most out of coaching, you gotta make sure you show up as the coachee.   As someone who is a coach and always has a coach (multiple ones!), I see it from both sides and do think there is a BIG difference when three major factors come into play...   💛 Check in...

There is a lot of BS out there in the fitness world.   And some of it, you can see right through.   Yet there are a few common myths that I get asked about regularly.   So I called in an expert to help bust them.   On this episode, I'm joined by Ray Cattaneo!   He's not just a great husband...he also happens to have 15 years of experience in the fitness and nutrition world...

You don't need to take a break during the upcoming holiday season...   You just need to readjust and work around all the chaos that is coming up within the next four months.   This time of year is ALWAYS crazy yet we got to this time and it's like a surprise.   We are like "Oh this time is SO busy!"   It's the SAME thing ever year...yet are you allowing it throw you off year an...

I know I need to do...   I know what the steps are...   I know what it takes to get there...   But I am [FILL IN THE BLANK]   Do you have the "I know already" syndrome?   Mannnnn..it's easy to catch this one.   Because there is SO much info out there, getting the HOW is pretty simple.   Yet, you may still find yourself NOT executing on it even though you know wha...

How many of you think healthy food means bland?   Not in my world!   I grew up eating super flavorful, amazing food and as I got into the health world, it was not something I was willing to compromise on.   The only issue was as I started to learn about different foods and how they affect your wellness, I noticed many of my favorite condiments, spice blends and sauces had to go. &nb...

Let's talk about swings. When you first get on a swing as a child, you need someone to push you the whole time. Then, you learn to keep the momentum yourself after someone gets you going. Eventually, you get to the point where you don't need the push at all. Others can stand on the sidelines encouraging you to go higher and higher. Now apply this to your life. Do you find yourself saying you need...

Do you invest in your future self? Just like a money investment, we have the choice to invest in ourselves. The workouts you choose to do this week are an investment in your long-term health. The supplements you commit to taking daily are also an investment. It works for other aspects too...the self-development work you are putting in right now may not pay off until a few months down the line. It'...

You really HATE it?   Or you hate how it makes you feel?   You hate that it reminds you that you can't or that you failed.   You hate that you struggle with it.   You hate that you don't feel success.   Maybe it's time to question WHY.   By questioning the why behind your hate, you can uncover beliefs that are keeping you in a loop.   Check out this episode as I...

Have you ever read a morning routine in a book or a post and thought....yeahhhhh that's not gonna work for me? Or you test it out and you are all kinds of miserable. I know I have. I used to have to wake up at 4 am to train 5:15 am classes and let me tell you...I did it for years and never got used to it. When I no longer had to wake up that early, I didn't...despite there being SO many things tha...

"Beware of minimizing desire in order to decrease discomfort" My business coach said this the other day on a module of hers I was watching and I had to pause the video and just sit there. Because damn. I can think of many times when I convince myself I don't have to push toward a goal or do something hard because it's uncomfortable. So what did I do? I told myself I really didn't want it - I minim...

You know that feeling of complete STRESS when you have a million things to do?   What if you could start getting rid of that?   It's simpler than you think...   Look at what needs to be done.   Most of what you do is actually pretty repetitive.   If you don't believe that, write down what you do everyday and come back to me.   So for the most part, you know what to ex...

Here's the SIMPLEST way to see why you are getting the result you are getting... Print out a monthly calendar. Pick ONE habit to focus on it. Every day you do that habit put a checkmark for the day. At the end of the 30 days, look at your result and your frequency of completing your chosen habit. You will see the pattern. (This is assuming you are realistic with your habit vs result...topic for a...

The secret to self-confidence is not what you think.   Have you ever said these words to yourself?   "I would love to [blank] but I wish I had more confidence."   But how do you build that confidence if you don't DO the thing you are wanting to be more self-confident with?   It's a helluva loop to get stuck in.   Do you know that the word confidence comes from the Latin wo...

Stop worrying about the end date. You set a goal. And now you allow yourself to become CONSUMED with the end of this goal. Meaning you can’t wait until it’s over. You start telling yourself you can't WAIT to go back to your regular scheduled programming. Let me ask you this...why the heck did you do the goal in the first place? Was it not because you looked at your habits and the results they were...
