Stronger Within

I have been "dieting" since I was in middle school. Going to Weight Watchers meetings with my mom at the age of 12, downloading MyFitnessPal at 13, eating 1,200 calories or less when I was in college... You name the diet or restrictive way of losing weight, and I've probably done it. I've hyper fixated on the scale. I've gotten so discouraged about the lack of progress tha...

Earlier this summer I had a state move that left me abandoning the habits I worked so hard to build and by the time I arrived to my new home state of North Carolina, the scale was up. If I'm being completely honest, this has been hard for me to share.. Because I'm a coach, and I preach "never gaining the weight back" so to see that my scale inched up? It felt embarrassing. But...

Expecting it to change in 8 weeks isn't a good strategy... it's a set...

Motivation will fail you. Every. Single. Time. If fat loss were easy, everyone would do it. But it's not and the people who actually reach their goals aren't the ones who stay motivated. They're the ones who know exactly why they started. In this episode, we're talking about how to find your WHY - the real one. Not "I want to look better" or "I want more energy.&...
