from The Mindset Diet · host Iman Whyte

If you’re eating “healthy,” working out consistently, and still feel stuck, frustrated, or exhausted, this episode is for you.In today’s conversation, I’m joined by functional health coach Jillian Harbarcuk for a very honest, very real discussion about what actually bothers us about the fitness industry and why so much well-intentioned advice ends up backfiring for women.We talk openly about the messaging women are constantly exposed to around clean eating, low calories, intense workouts, hormones, stress, and quick fixes and why following that advice often leads to burnout, metabolic issues, and stalled progress instead of results.This episode is part rant, part education, and fully focused on helping you understand what’s really getting in your way so you can stop blaming yourself and start working with your body instead of against it.Connect with Jill:Follow her on Instagram @jillianrfitApply to work with me:If you’re feeling stuck and want help applying these concepts to your real life, I currently have limited spots open for one-on-one nutrition and fitness coaching.You can apply for a no-pressure nutrition and fitness consult using the link below.
