8. Lacking in Energy and Motivation? Me too

mardi 17 juin 2025 • Durée 11:22

In today’s episode, we’re talking about those moments when you feel completely blocked and unmotivated. Trust me - I’ve been there recently, feeling like there’s a giant Lego brick on my chest and no matter what I do, I can’t seem to get past it. But here’s the truth: you’re not alone.

Motivation can be elusive, and we all have days when we don’t feel like ourselves. But that doesn’t mean you’re failing. It just means you’re human.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through:

Why it’s normal to feel blocked and how to embrace it
The importance of taking small steps when motivation is low
How mindset shifts like “What would I do if I wasn’t worried about being perfect?” can help you get out of your head and into action
Why sometimes, the best thing you can do is give yourself permission to rest and recharge

Key Takeaways:

Feeling blocked doesn’t mean you’re failing - it’s a normal part of life.
Start small -take just one tiny action to build momentum, even when motivation is low.
Mindset shift: Focus on how you want to feel, rather than worrying about what you “should” do.
Celebrate small wins - even if they feel insignificant. They add up!
Rest is key - you don’t have to do it all, and sometimes, taking a break is exactly what you need.

4. The Secret to Quieting Your Inner Critic? Ask Yourself This

vendredi 25 avril 2025 • Durée 15:15

Today, we’re diving into something that matters more than any diet or exercise plan - how you talk to yourself. Your inner dialogue shapes your relationship with your body, your worth, and how you move through life. Here’s what we’re covering:

Your self-talk matters. It impacts your motivation, happiness, and mental health.
As you age, your perception of yourself changes. I look at myself so differently now than I did in my 20s, and it’s a game-changer.
Negative self-talk holds you back. Ask yourself: "Would I say this to someone I love?" If not, reframe it!
Reframing your thoughts: Notice the thought, challenge its truth, and replace it with a positive affirmation.
Other tools: Mindfulness, meditation, and gratitude journaling can help you shift your mindset and build self-compassion.
