Magic Mindset with Heather Maio

Lets jump right back into the topic of dieting.  What is a diet? Is a protocol a diet? What about a "lifestyle"??  Why is operating under someone else's rules setting you up to fail 100% of the time??  Why do we self-sabotage? You may be surprised by what is really happening when you "fall off the wagon"... spoiler alert: it is a GOOD thing!

Diets do not work.  We know this.  Yet, we run back to them again and again - each time forgetting how they harmed us.  But what other choice do we have? If we want to lose weight a diet is the only solution, right? Wrong. And does wanting to lose weight mean we must also be unhappy in our body until we reach that goal? Wrong again. This week is the first episode of a three part ser...

This is the episode you need to listen to if you are feeling stuck, incapable of change or powerless over your current circumstances. If you have a goal that’s been sitting on your chest you have yet to act - this is for you too. Heather examines the lies keeping us stuck securely in our bullshit and how to challenge them and find magic on the other side.

How do you practice gratitude? How you take your morning practice of listing three things you are grateful for and turn into in WHO you are - someone who lives in a state of gratitude?  I have a few ideas and they all boil down to one truth: realize almost everything you complain about is something you are grateful for.   Wondering what I am talking about? Check out the episode and hear...

What is shadow work, and should you be doing it?? (Spoiler alert: yes). In this episode Heather breaks down the term “shadow” and helps you identify behaviors, habits and patterns that are keeping you stuck. Finding your shadow self isn’t fun, but if your committed to growth it is the most powerful step you can take. This episode will help empower you to take it.

Confidence is key- but what is too much? And how do we get it? In episode 11 Heather explores simple things you can do to build your confidence and become someone you can count on.

You are ready to give up diets - but what is next? You are still binging, still not feeling at home in your body or still aware you need to make some changes with how you interact with your physical being BUT you understand that another diet ain’t the play…. This episode is for you. Finally shit the door and walk away from diets and the behaviors they keep you stuck in.

Boundaries are tricky. We know we need them, but why can it be so hard to set them?? Heather’s theory: we need more clarity around WHO we are, and once we figure that out setting boundaries becomes effortless…

This is the episode I never intended to make. Fitness is a HUGE part of my life, but there is enough information out there on it. Is it helpful? Unfortunately no. Most is bullshit… so here we are. Talking about what really matters - how fitness can help you elevate and grow! Using fitness to help you expand! Calling your bullshit because chances are you do have time and money - and INVESTING in yo...

Oh boy - we go there this week. Why is that rude little voice in our heads so loud?? How do we ignore it?…. Spoiler alert. We don’t. We can’t. But we can use that jerk in our head as a jumping point to help us elevate and grow…

Moderation: the avoidance of extremes. Turning away from excess…. But is that what we want?? Heather explores moderation - and asks, is it really working for you? Or is aiming for moderation keeping you stuck??

Wtf is motivation and why is it so fickle? How come it shows up when we are scrolling Instagram but leaves by the time our package of booty bands and at home workout program arrives?? Can we rely on it or do we need to call in something else for help? Heather explores motivation and gives you a peep talk - providing you tools to use in place of motivation. Tools that work… because you can’t rely o...

How do we end the abusive cycle of self-sabotage?? It’s pretty simple… but don’t equate simple for being easy. Sometimes simple requires a bit of work. The beauty here is THIS time - the work is worth it and the pay off will improve every area of your life.

This episode explains why I no longer use the scale as a tool to measure my body, and my progress, and why I believe most people should get off the scale as well.  We will examine the role a scale plays in our life. Look at whether or not it is a tool that is helping us, allowing us to thrive, OR is is a tool that is keeping us stuck in our bullshit.   (spoiler alert: it is keeping us in...

Highest self is a concept that has become my North Star. It is the light that helps illuminate my path, and exposes all my bullshit. Aiming to embody my highest self has allowed me to self reflect, to shed things that no longer serve me, (or never did in the first place!) and helped me lean into behaviors that allow me to thrive.

Welcome to episode one of the Magic Mindset podcast. Todays Episode will break down what to expect, and give you the backstory of why I am doing this and what to expect in upcoming episodes. Here we will get our feet wet, dip our toes into the huge topics of highest self, gossip, and why we need to start scared!
