​Are you afraid to commit to your healthy habits because you think you might fail or will have to quit? Or maybe you're actually afraid of the consequences if it actually works?! These feelings can paralyze us from taking action, and make us terribly inconsistent. 

In this final episode of our Consistency Series, we're taking a closer look at how the fear of failure AND the fear of success can stop us from being consistent and making progress.

We're talking about: 

• How our own history with food and exercise could be convincing us we'll fail; 
• Why we self-sabotage;
• Waiting for perfection and lacking trust in God; 
• And how we let hypothetical situations dictate our actions. 

​If you need hacks (and a therapy session!) on how to get more consistent with your nutrition and exercise routine, this discussion will help!

Is burnout the source of your inconsistency? For many, it is. They start a program and strive to do it all perfectly, day in and day out, only to find themselves getting sick of it and burning out. If you know the feeling, you need Strategic Pressure Release Valves...moments of "imperfection" that magically prevent burnout and keep you going for the long haul. 

On this episode, we're talking about: 

• The "weekend wagon fall"
• The consequences of extreme diets & workout programs
• How to make our metabolism more adaptive
• Why splurging is a requirement
• And what a non-burnout workout routine really looks like

This one is chock-full of helpful tips that will help you get more consistent!

Getting more consistent with your workouts and eating habits is TOUGH! But I'm helping you get there. And learning how to actually create better goals for yourself and have a realistic and doable set of expectations is extremely important.

On this episode, I'm teaching you the formula for goal setting that WORKS. And then we'll re-examine those goals through a lens of your own unique circumstances and frequent curveballs, landing on a set of action steps that actually feel really easy! 

We're talking about: 

• Your big "WHY",
• The difference between an outcome goal vs. action steps (and why this matters), 
• How to make your goals easier, 
• Thinking differently about your "excuses". 

​If you struggle to stick with your routine and can't seem to make forward progress, this episode will give you so much clarity!! 

The Goal Setting Formula:

1. What is your "why", your true motivation for showing up and getting the work done? And why does this matter to you? 
2. What is your "big picture goal" that moves you in the direction of your "why" from step #1?
   1. Make sure it's specific and measurable
   2. Make sure it has a timeframe
3. What are the clear action steps that you will DO on a daily/weekly basis that will move you in the direction of your "big picture goal" from step #2?
   1. What nutrition habits will you follow?
   2. What exercise habits will you follow?
4. Now, go back and re-examine steps #2 and #3 and make them several notches easier. 
   1. Take into consideration all of your unique hurdles and barriers on a daily basis. 
   2. You should adjust your goal and action steps until they feel 100% doable - you can adhere to it without a doubt.

This episode kicks off our new series all about consistency! To get you to actually see results, we're focusing on the major factors that will help you stick with your self-care habits. And having EFFECTIVE ACCOUNTABILITY is a huge key to becoming more consistent. 

Unfortunately, most of us don't really know what accountability actually means. Is it tracking charts? An accountability partner or a group? Something else? Of course, it's all these things and so much more.

​On this episode, we're chatting about: 

• Having the right heart attitude, 
• The power of Christ in you, 
• Charts and tracking tools, 
• Partners and community groups, 
• And having a trustworthy coach. 

Accountability is not what you think! And until you get that, you'll continue to flounder.
