Manage episode 507818959 series 3683294
Hey Friends!
In this episode, we dive into one of the most important truths about health: motivation won’t get you where you want to go—consistency will.
I share some personal stories (yes, even about eyelashes and unfinished books!) to show why waiting to “feel motivated” keeps us stuck in cycles of starting over. I’ll walk you through why discipline, structure, and small daily habits matter so much more than motivation, and how those little actions add up to lasting change.
If you’ve ever said “nothing works” or beaten yourself up for lacking willpower, this episode will encourage you to reframe that thinking and give you practical strategies to finally build the consistency that keeps weight off for good.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
- Why motivation is fleeting (and why you don’t need it to succeed)
- How small, repeatable actions compound into big results
- The difference between short-term intensity vs. long-term consistency
- How I use habit stacking to anchor new routines into my daily life
- Why I see discipline not as punishment, but as a reward
- How habit tracking builds trust and confidence within yourself
