Do you find it tough to pick yourself back up after a setback or when a challenge comes your way? Do you often feel like you’re failing at something and just want to quit?
Michelle, a 41-year-old married Mum of two (her daughter is 10 and her son is 6), is scared to start her fitness and health journey because of intense feelings of failure from past experiences.
She knows she needs to shift her mindset from being skinny to being healthy and to appreciate the changes she sees in her health, not just what the scale says.
But that deep fear of failure is stopping her from even starting.
Michelle does the occasional workout at home and goes for walks, but she’s so far from where she wants to be that she’s finding it terrifying.

Do you feel anxious often?
I used to be so anxious that I would have panic attacks.
That feeling of not being able to breathe is horrible. I let anxiety and fear take over for a long time. I let them dictate how I felt and I let them make my decisions and I allowed them to control the actions I would take.
How would you feel if I told you that you can break free from being controlled by anxiety and fear?
Like I did. Let me show you how.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing with you how I did it, in three steps.

What's your relationship like with food?
Do you binge eat on weekends?
Do you sit on the couch after a long day and eat something sweet while secretly wishing you weren’t?
Do you have big portion sizes at dinner and wish you didn’t?
I used to be a serial dieter.
I used to binge eat, restrict my food, count calories, weigh my food, and obsess about the next new recipe, thinking meal prep would be my answer if only I had time...
The funny, not-so-funny thing is that throughout all this time, I was overweight.

When I was super unhealthy, overweight, unfit, and drinking and eating too much, I never in a million years thought part of my problem was that the standards I had for myself were low.

In this episode, I share with you how to raise your standards in your life so that you can become fit and healthy and stay that way. If you want to change any area in your life, you absolutely must raise the standards you have set for yourself. Click play and let's dive in.

Oh, this cuts deep. I remember so well the day my coach challenged me on my commitment to his program. "Of course, I'm committed," I thought. "I just paid you, and I'm sitting here over Zoom, ready and waiting!"
I was initially annoyed with him, but he helped change my mindset around working towards a goal right there in that moment. He asked me, "Are you ready to achieve your goal?" I confidently replied, "I'm going to try."
He looked at me, shocked and surprised. The lesson he shared next blew my mind with its simplicity and profoundness. I want to pass on this message, because it can truly transform your approach to achieving your goals.
