THE FYX 027: If You're Tired of Jumping from Diet to Diet, Address Your Mindset with Jonah Mitchell

Jonah Mitchell is a certified personal trainer, nutrition coach, and former collegiate athlete determined to help busy people realize they matter. ICYMI--constantly placing everyone's needs ahead of your own isn't making you a better person. In fact, it's getting in the way of your physical and emotional development. Jonah joined me on this episode of The FYX to help reframe the conversation around self-care and mental health. It's time we stop confusing self-care with being selfish--and for that matter, demonizing selfishness in general. Jonah opens up about his childhood, past relationships, and the beliefs he's held onto for years--most of which he now realizes were limiting his potential. Through journaling, reading, and therapy, Jonah is actively working to break away from the false agreements he made with his younger self in order to grow as a coach, husband, professional, and friend. We also dive into: - the importance of establishing habits and routines that are designed to guarantee success: hint -- start small - how the values we maintain in our personal relationships and professional lives should align with our approaches to fitness and nutrition - the fact that a 1% margin of improvement is STILL an improvement worth celebrating - the pluses and minuses of sharing progress photos as a marketing tool and celebration of client successes - how to establish an "All American" mindset beyond athletics and in all areas of life Fill your coffee cup, sip away, and get your FYX of Coach Krysta and her guests on The FYX podcast.
