âThere arenât enough hours in the day.â
âIâm too tired.â
âItâs been a stressful day, I deserve a treat.â
âIâm just not motivated.â
âIâll start tomorrow.â
âI donât want to waste food.â
These are just a handful of the things we tell ourselves day in and day out that are keeping us stuck making poor food choices, skipping the gym, and generally not following through on our health goals.
And the thing is, some people will insist on fighting for their excuses. Theyâll clutch to them like a security blanket, theyâll defend them,

Last week was rough. My cycle came and with it a huge wave of absolute, pure and utter exhaustion. Like, kept-nodding-off-in-the-chair-while-I-was-getting-my-hair-done exhaustion.Â
In this situation, it was absolutely the right call for me to trade my gym session for a walk on the trail. I was still getting movement in, but movement that actually added to my energy instead of depleting it further.Â
Donât get me wrong, skipping the workout is not always the right call.Â
For example, if you miss your workouts 5 times a week because youâre a...
 Itâs about that time! Back-to-school is around the corner, weâre finishing up our last-chance vaca's before itâs back to the grindstone, and thoughts are turning from âfuck-it vaca modeâ to âoh-crap-itâs-time-to-get-back-to-good-habits modeâ.
But it can be hard to flip that switch when youâve gotten out of the routine of working out, you havenât been putting much thought into your food choices, itâs been a minute since youâve been in the kitchen, and youâre used to staying up later than usual with all that sun and fun waiting for you.

If there is one common trajectory every one of my clients follows it's this: they start off highly motivated and excited to get started, they stay totally dialed into the process and are pushed forward by the results they see, and then inevitably they hit a wall.
A parent gets sick.Â
An unexpected move happens.Â
A child goes through a tough time.Â
A big trip comes up.Â
The school year starts.Â
Their spouse gets let go.Â
They start a new job.Â
They run into a busy season.
What determines my clients' success is not those initial r
...Last week we started our conversation about how to become the type of person who still works out when they're tired, who still cooks when they're overwhelmed, who still goes to bed on time even when their favorite show ends with a cliff hanger and all they want to do is hit that 'next episode' button.
The long and short: how to develop the skill of discipline.Â

In the game of health and weight loss, your mindset will fuck you up more than a cheat day ever will.Â
How you speak to yourself, how you perceive setbacks, how you think about obstacles, and what you focus on is the difference between you taking another step forward or quitting.
It's the difference between you staying consistent or swinging from one extreme to another.
It's the difference between you feeling grateful when you finally hit that finish line ...
Weâre all guilty of it. We tell ourselves half-truths, give ourselves little excuses, allow ourselves get-out-of-jail-free cards for why we canât achieve our goals.
But if we can get brutally honest, weâll realize more often than not that little voice isnât a voice of reason. Itâs a voice of fear. And it wants to keep you nice and safe in your beautifully designed comfort zone where nothing has to change, and yet the imagined future is full of possibilities and hope.
And these are some of that Inner Fearâs favorite hits:

If I asked you, "What's the number one thing sabotaging people's health goals?" what would you say? Eating too much sugar? Not working out? Binging on the weekends?
Want to know my answer? It's our minds. It's the stories we repeat in our heads daily. It's how hard we are on ourselves. It's our shame.
It's the excuses we give ourselves that keep us in our comfort zone, away from the action, away from the possibility of failure.Â
It's the beliefs we hold about who we are and what we're capable of. It's our thought patte...

I have a story for you that I think is important for you to hear, so listen up...
I was on a coaching call with a client this past week, who was struggling with the nutrition part of her program.
She was having  a hard time with knowing what to eat, how much to eat, and with figuring out what was really healthy versus what was just good marketing (a fair concern).
She talked about how she had done so many diets before that didn't work, that didn't last, or that turn...
