Encore Presentation: Unsticking Motivation

Struggling to reignite your motivation and get back on track with your health, fitness, or wellness goals? In this episode of the “Better Than Fine” podcast, host Darlene Marshall uncovers the real reason why your motivation gets “stuck”—and how to finally get moving again. Forget the old advice to “just want it more”; Darlene breaks down the complex interplay between your physical needs, psychological drives, social pressures, and those sneaky self-limiting beliefs that hold you back without you even realizing it. Learn why motivation isn’t a simple on-off switch and discover the science-backed process she uses with her clients to identify conflicting motivations, align actions with true values, and create a game plan that actually sticks. Whether you’re a wellness pro, a fitness enthusiast, or someone who just feels frustrated and stuck, this episode will help you see what’s really stopping you—and give you the tools to overcome it. If you want to understand why you can KNOW what to do but still feel stuck, this encore presentation reveals how exhaustion, stress, unmet needs, and external influences sabotage your progress—and exactly what you can do to unstick your motivation for good. Tune in to “Better Than Fine” and find permission, clarity, and practical steps to thrive, not just survive.
