Goals, Grit, and Some Woo Woo Sh*t
What I Would Tell You If I Wasn't Afraid To Hurt Your Feelings
Alright babes… buckle up. It’s just me today. No guest, no filter, and apparently no fear of ruffling a few feathers. Because after years of coaching clients, reading their intro posts, cheering their wins and gently calling out their nonsense, I’ve realized there are a few things I would absolutely tell you if I wasn’t worried about hurting your feelings.
So today I’m naming the patterns that show up again and again. The attitude that lets me know within the first five minutes whether someone is going to crush their goals. The beliefs that quietly sabotage you before you even begin. The overwhelm that comes from consuming way too much wellness content. And the sneaky habit of outsourcing your power to programs, gadgets and accountability buddies instead of owning your results like the badass you actually are.
This episode is tough love wrapped in a cozy blanket. You are not broken. You are not behind. You just need to stop giving your power to anything outside of yourself. And yes, I say that with love and possibly a tiny bitch slap.
What’s Inside:
- The five-minute success test I can’t unsee and what your intro post secretly tells me about your future results
- How program hopping keeps you stuck in the valley of despair instead of moving forward
- Why the emotional cycle of change makes you think you need a reset when you really need persistence
- The truth about accountability and why the person who leads always gets the biggest transformation
So here is my question for you. What is winning really about for you? Is it obsessing over the perfect plan or finally trusting yourself to follow through? Is it searching for the shiny new program or getting so rooted in your habits that your life starts to quietly transform from the inside out?
That could be you. Truly.
If something in this episode poked at a sore spot, good. That’s your clue. I want to hear which part hit home. Come tell me on Instagram. I love knowing what lands for you and what you are ready to change.
