Can't Believe I Made It Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

What's good High Performers! In this exciting new episode of Can’t Believe I Made It Podcast, we jump into the fitness expert and coach Janae Kellogg's journey. Janae joins us to share her story of how fitness, mindset, and self-care have shaped her career—and how she helps women transform their relationship with food, their bodies, and their goals.

We talk about everything from how she found her passion for fitness on a farm as a child to discovering her purpose in coaching others and how she uses her own experiences with eating disorder recovery to help other women create healthier relationships with food.

We also explore the pressures of bodybuilding, the importance of balancing masculine and feminine energy, and how to build a sustainable fitness routine that works with your body rather than against it.

Key Takeaways:

• How Janae discovered her passion for fitness and transitioned into personal training and health coaching.
• The impact of bodybuilding on mental and physical health and finding healthier approaches to fitness.
• The importance of cycle syncing and how it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution.
• Understanding the balance between masculine and feminine energy in fitness.
• Real talk about rest days and why scaling back can sometimes yield better results.
• Janae’s advice for women looking to reclaim their fitness journey, find balance, and honor their body’s needs.

First off, can we all give our Crosscast Collab partners some love?! Jump on the Sunnyside’s Mindful Drinking App wave and listen to my dude Mike Hardenbrook’s podcast, Journey to The Sunnyside.

Episode Overview:

In this special Crosscast collaboration with the Journey To The Sunnyside Podcast, we dive into my transformative journey of mindful drinking. As a high-performance coach, podcast host, and registered dietitian, I would have thought that I had healthy habits down, but after 2020, I had some lessons to learn. So join in as we discuss how tracking my alcohol consumption over 150 days (now 250+) has led to significant insights into my habits, health, and cultural influences. Throughout this episode, we explore the challenges and rewards of this journey, offering practical advice and personal reflections on accountability, honesty, and the role of technology in fostering healthy habits.

Key Points:

1. Generational and Cultural Influence: We explore how our Latino heritage and family history have shaped my early relationship with alcohol, noting the cultural tendency to keep issues within the family and avoid vulnerability.

2. Pandemic and Self-Realization: Like many others, the isolation and lifestyle changes during the pandemic prompted me to reassess my drinking habits. We discuss how increasing tolerance and lack of awareness led to a commitment to mindful drinking.

3. Tracking and Accountability: We share how using the Sunnyside app for over 150 days has provided the structure and support needed to stay mindful about alcohol consumption. We highlight how the app’s features, such as daily prompts and progress tracking, have been crucial in maintaining honesty and accountability.

4. Honesty and Vulnerability: We emphasize the importance of being honest with ourselves. We reflect on how mindful drinking has improved our mental and physical well-being, stressing the value of checking in with our intentions and feelings before drinking.

5. Balancing Performance and Well-Being: Drawing from my experience as a high-performance coach, we discuss the significance of aligning our drinking habits with personal and professional values. We offer advice on how to prioritize preparation, performance, and recovery in all areas of life.

6. Role of Technology in Building Healthy Habits: We also tackle how the supportive community within the Sunnyside app has provided a sense of safety and encouragement, making it easier to maintain genuine honesty and make positive changes.

Takeaways:

• Mindful drinking can significantly enhance health, self-awareness, and overall well-being.

• Honest reflection and accountability are vital for understanding and improving our relationship with alcohol.

• Cultural and generational influences are impactful, but open dialogue and supportive environments can facilitate change.

• Tracking and planning our drinking habits are effective tools for achieving consistency and reaching our goals.

Call to Action:

We encourage listeners to reflect on their relationship with alcohol, seek out supportive communities, and consider using tools like the Sunnyside app to track and manage their drinking habits mindfully. Remember, real progress starts with small, intentional steps.

The last two years have been hard. Everything has been challenging. But one thing that you and I can both agree on is that…

SOMETHING. ISN'T. RIGHT.

That's why you're here. You're here to take Radical Responsibility for the way that you show up in life.

And it starts with examining why you are feeling stuck.

Where it comes from.

There's no one to blame here. Well, to some degree.

Radical Responsibility for your life and habits has more to do with your curiosity than your judgment.

It's the judgment that has kept you stuck up to this moment. The moment that you decided that you were done suffering in your own judgment of where you "should" be right now.

The fact is that you are where you are right now, and you have to choose your hard.

Hard is doing what you're about to do here to get some help and mentorship with clarity surrounding getting unstuck, sitting with uncomfortable feelings, and honestly asking and getting what you need in a healthy way.

So welcome. This 7-day Experience breaks down and teaches how to become the Hero in your own story.
