You have probably asked yourself the exact question I hear from women every single week. Is my goal even realistic? I recorded this episode because that one question is keeping so many of you stuck with either no goal at all or a goal so small it barely moves you.

Here is the truth I unpack: it is almost never the goal that is unrealistic. It is the strategy you are using and the timeline you are giving yourself. I walk through a conversation with a former competitor who told me she just wanted to feel good, my own story of thinking I could never get back in shape after my kids, and the data that blows up the idea that your age is the reason you are stuck.

In this episode I get into:

  • Why "I just want to feel good" is a vibe, not a goal
  • The England analogy that changes how you look at every goal you set
  • The real reason people gain weight as they age (it is not what you were told)
  • What you can control versus what you cannot, and why obsessing over the wrong things keeps you stuck
  • How I stay within 5 pounds of my Olympia weight at 42
  • Why the person you become in the process is the thing that lets you keep the result

Stop questioning the goal. Start questioning the plan and the timeline. If you want help figuring out what is actually realistic for your life, book a call with me in the show notes.
