  • Imagine you’re faced with two paths to success: one is hard and full of obstacles, while the other is straightforward and effective.

    The secret to success isn’t about working harder; it’s about working smarter. Successful people don’t create more obstacles for themselves, they find ways to remove them.

    In this episode, I’ll use the inversion method to explain how figuring out what will guarantee failure and avoiding those issues is often much simpler than trying to discover the perfect path to success.

    Instead of getting overwhelmed by all the endless things you need to do to become successful, focus on identifying what would guarantee your failure, then simply, do the opposite.

    It’s natural to feel like you’re fighting a losing battle and that progress is impossible. It’s easy to think that giving up is the only option. But true success isn’t about never facing challenges; it’s about persevering, taking responsibility, and making adjustments to simplify your path so you can achieve your goals with greater ease.

  • Have you ever wondered why it’s so easy to gain weight back?

    Have you ever felt trapped in a cycle of lose some, then gain some endlessly?

    In this episode we’ll look at how to easily maintain weight loss, pause when you stop losing rather than gaining it all back… and know how to safeguard yourself from sneaky old behaviours creeping back in.

    This is the building block to finding body and food freedom. A system of eating that feels maintainable.

    A clear understanding of what your day to day meals look like and solid habits with your food and behaviours.

    Having clearly defined boundaries so nothing to ‘slip’ to.

    When you do this, you truly can put weight loss behind you. For good.

  • Fat loss doesn’t have to be mystical, it’s actually a simple formula, with consistent inputs that have consistent outputs (eat veggies and get into a calorie deficit = lose fat)

    The hard part is what behavioural inputs you need to ACTUALLY do it.

    Not just go to the gym each week, but HOW to make yourself do it when you just want to lie on the couch and watch Netflix.

    That’s where habits come in… and using the 4 stages of habit building to make positive behaviours easy and obvious, and negative ones difficult and painful.

    In this episode, I break down how to do exactly that, so that you don’t have to hope and pray you reach your goals, you are guaranteed to.

  • If you want to guarantee failure, then these are the 5 things to do (or keep doing)

    Sometimes it’s easier to simply avoid the things that will guarantee failure, and do the opposite, rather than try to come up with what success looks like!!

    This concept comes from the great Charlie Munger (this entire episode was inspired by his work) and is all about inverting success.

    Be warned. This episode is spicy.

    I go hard on core beliefs that are probably holding you back.

    There are 3 that most people hold onto that will stop them from achieving their goals, and they are not fun to admit are actually holding us back.

    If you like results, being challenged, and making progress… then give this one a listen.

  • Ever found yourself in weight loss discussions, surrounded by differing opinions, personal insecurities, and well-intentioned advice? It's a common challenge when aiming for your weight loss goals. But remember, you're not alone!

    Join me for a live discussion with our Lean with Plants members, where we'll explore strategies for navigating these tough conversations with spouses, family, friends, and others. This journey can often lead us to feeling misunderstood or out of place, but it's vital to stay true to our aspirations and values, regardless of external validation.

    Maintaining body autonomy and embracing our uniqueness, even in the face of obstacles or misunderstandings, is crucial for success. I hope this episode provides valuable insights into effective communication and self-assertion on your weight loss journey.

    Always remember, your journey is yours alone, and authenticity is key to success.

  • The goal isn’t to do easy things!

    We’re doing that now.

    The goal is to become the kind of person where hard things are easy things for YOU.

    The power of successful people is they know where to tweak things to make them FEEL easier, more satisfying, more fun, or slip into those behaviours better than other people.

    Unsuccessful people think things SHOULD feel easier, but then MAKE them harder.Successful people think things SHOULD feel hard, but then MAKE them easier.

    Once we know the path to success is to conquer hard things, we need to get a clear expectation of what ‘hard’ looks like, and then make them as simple, fun, and easy as possible so we can do them forever.

    In this episode, we talk about exactly how to do just that.
