Episode 221: The Mountain Is You: How to Stop Getting in Your Own Way in Health and Fitness

In this episode of Life Rewired, Kristina takes the principles from Brianna Wiest's bestselling book The Mountain Is You and applies them directly to women's health and fitness. She opens by reframing one of the most misunderstood concepts in the wellness space, self-sabotage, and makes the case that the behaviors that look like laziness or lack of discipline from the outside are actually coping mechanisms the nervous system uses to keep us safe within a familiar comfort zone. For any woman who has ever started strong, seen progress, and then somehow found a way to derail it, this episode offers a completely different and far more compassionate framework for understanding what is actually happening beneath the surface.Kristina walks through the gap between who we are and who we want to be, and why most women use that gap as evidence of their failure rather than as a roadmap for their growth. She also gets honest about the role that emotional triggers play in our relationship with food and exercise, including how both can become coping mechanisms that keep us from addressing the real underlying need. Throughout the episode, she weaves in her perspective as a coach and women's health specialist, connecting Wiest's psychological framework directly to the patterns that she sees in her coaching practice.This one is less about what to eat or how to train and more about the internal work that makes all of that actually stick. It is the episode to share with the woman in your life who is doing everything right on paper and still feeling stuck.APPLY FOR 1:1 COACHING:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1srFPBIhQwnCw8uJ3qf-wjTDG-df62gM8hzfJkNwaJW4/preview BALANCED BLUEPRINT MEMBERSHIP:https://builtgroupcoaching.my.canva.site/balancedblueprintmembershipB&B NEWSLETTER/FREE FAT LOSS MASTERCLASS:⁠⁠⁠https://builtandbalanced.kit.com/dd0f3197cc⁠⁠⁠KRIS IG:⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/kristinaturnure/?hl=en⁠⁠THE BLUEPRINT FOUNDATIONS COURSE:https://stan.store/KrisTurnure/p/the-blueprint-courseLIFE REWIRED IG:⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/LIFEREWIREDPODCAST/?utm_medium=copy_link⁠⁠NASH BARS:https://nashnutrition.co/PTULA: DISCOUNT CODE KRISTINAT https://www.ptula.com/TRANSPARENT LABS: CODE KRISTINA https://athlete.transparentlabs.com/kristinaturnure
