Goals, Grit, and Some Woo Woo Sh*t
Couch →Chips →Repeat (until she didn't) with Tara Bohle
You know that moment when you catch your reflection in the TV at 10 p.m., half a bag of chips deep, and think, “Is this… it?” That was Tara Bohle. Homeschooling three kids, caring for a baby, and stuck in that endless loop of exhaustion and guilt—couch, chips, repeat. Until one random scroll changed everything.
In this episode, I chat with Tara about what it really looks like to rebuild your habits from the ground up when you’ve got zero energy and even less time. We talk about the exact moment that flipped her switch (spoiler: it involved a Facebook ad and a serious “enough is enough” moment), how she found herself again after years of putting everyone else first, and how she’s been rocking her health and energy ever since, without the all-or-nothing bullshit.
This isn’t one of those “and then I lost 40 pounds in two weeks” stories. It’s a real woman talking about what happens when you decide you’re done feeling like crap and start showing up for yourself, even if it’s just by going to bed early and hiding the chips in the garage. Tara is funny, honest, and proof that transformation doesn’t come from perfection. It comes from one badass decision at a time.
If you’ve ever thought, “I just don’t have time,” or caught yourself saying, “I’ll start Monday,” you need this episode. Because Tara didn’t wait for the perfect time, she made it.
What’s Inside:
- The single “couch moment” that sparked Tara’s transformation
- How she built healthy habits while homeschooling three kids and caring for a baby
- The mindset shift that ended her guilt-shame-start-over cycle for good
- Why letting go of “all or nothing” thinking might be the most freeing thing you’ll ever do
What’s keeping you on the couch right now? The chips, the exhaustion, or that sneaky voice saying you’ll start tomorrow? Look, you can totally change your life without flipping it upside down. I want to hear your story. What’s your “enough is enough” moment? DM me on Instagram and let’s talk about it.
