104. Consistency & Confidence 101: Master Your Health and Well-Being

One thing I’ve been hearing in my messages from you guys and my clients is about the struggle to stay consistent. You try something for a few days, then “fall off the wagon” so to speak and it all just falls apart. I get it! If there’s one thing I’ve learned from my health journey, it’s that consistency is not easy! It takes a whole lot of inner work and a deep dive into our mindset to really dig into the “why” and take back our power! Today I’m discussing how I navigated my own health and fitness journey to find a place of balance and consistency. My story is one that so many have been through. I was unhappy with my body. I was disconnected and ashamed of it. And I started my healthy journey because of a comment someone made. I used that as fuel “get better and lose weight”. The deeper truth wasn’t about the weight though. It was about my belief that I had to be perfect, look a certain way or be thin and that if I wasn’t, then I wasn’t worthy. My own self-sabotage is what held me back from showing up consistently for myself. I didn’t think I was worthy of what I wanted so it just didn’t happen. I was scared of failing so I didn’t try. I went from bingeing to extreme restriction, over exercising and calorie counting, thinking it was the “right” way to do it, but found myself no happier than when I’d had the extra weight. At some point, I decided that I couldn’t live like that anymore. I wanted to be happy. I wanted to be healthy. Weight wasn’t even a factor anymore. I had to find balance. And once I started to address what was actually going on beneath the surface and realized I was a victim to food, I was able to take my power back and step into my Queen!
