Progress Is Not What You Think Pt2 #69

In this thought-provoking episode, I dive into one of the biggest misunderstandings women hold about progress-the belief that it only counts when it shows up on the scales or in perfect routines. Through my own reflections, insights from behavioural psychology, and the realities I see every day in the lives of busy women and teachers, I unpack why this old narrative of “all or nothing” has held so many of us back and how a more sustainable, compassionate, and empowering approach can completely transform the way we move through our journeys.I also share what I learned during a seven-week period where I stepped back from training entirely-not because I’d given up, but because my capacity had shifted. Instead of spiralling into guilt or abandoning myself, I found new layers of emotional maturity, identity growth, and genuine consistency emerging. In this episode, I explain why returning matters far more than perfection, why slowing down doesn’t mean you’re falling behind, how comparison warps your perception of progress, and why the small daily decisions we barely acknowledge are often the most influential ones.If you’ve ever felt “behind,” questioned whether you’re doing enough, or struggled to see progress you can’t physically measure, this episode will help you recognise the quieter, more meaningful signs of growth you’ve probably been overlooking. You’ll walk away with a different definition of success-one rooted in resilience, self-awareness, and the courage to keep choosing yourself through every season of life. Hosted on Acast.
