I love to focus on the positive!

Well, in this article I’m going to tell you how NOT to reach your goals this year.

Because there’s one big mistake you can make that can push you into a HUGE trap – and you’ll end up feeling frustrated, burned out, and like a quitter.

Here’s how it happens:

You set some HUGE goals for the New Year (yay!!!!). 

Starting NOW, you will finally get your you-know-what together.

You’ll drink  ALL the water … eat super-clean food (and journal every bite) … be extra…

Have you noticed how New Year’s resolutions have this way of turning into gigantic projects?

You tell yourself: “I’m going to start working out 3 times a week.”

Then suddenly you realize you need to get some new sneakers, a new set of workout clothes, and maybe even shop for some protein powder while you’re at it.

The list keeps growing — and before you know it? It’s February and you haven’t even started.

The thing is, the new workout clothes, the shoes, the protein powder… It's all just bus…

I read an interesting study the other day that uncovered something pretty incredible about how our bodies work. 

Take a look at this…

Scientists gave a group of people a shake to drink.

Half of the group was told the shake was LOW in calories and nutrients...

While the other half was told it was HIGH in calories and nutrients.

As you might have guessed, everyone was given the exact same shake.

Now here’s where it gets interesting. 

The group who thought they got the low-calorie shake was …

I’ve got a big confession for you today … and yes, this happens to coaches, too.

The other day I was just not into being “healthy.” I wasn’t in the mood for the lunch I made … the dinner I planned … or getting outside for some fresh air.

I don’t know why, exactly, but I was dreading it, and I kept finding things to do INSTEAD of what I had originally planned.

It wasn’t because I needed a day off. It was just one of those days.

So here’s what I did …

I laced up my sneakers and went outside f…

Did you know that reports of anxiety are up 25% over the past couple of years?

I personally think this number is low since anxiety shows up in different ways for different people … and it’s not always easy to recognize it as anxiety.

A few ways it can show up: feeling restless or agitated, having headaches and/or unexplained pains, trouble focusing, feeling tired, disrupted sleep, worrying, or rolling the same-old, same-old thoughts over and over in your head.

One of the best natural ways to …

Has this ever happened to you before? 

You’re planning on making dinner after work … but as soon as it’s time to start cooking, you start to think:

• I'm too tired
• I don’t know what to make
• I'm too hungry to wait that long
• I have too much to do
• I'm stressed
• I really just want to watch something on Netflix
• etc.

And you’re tempted to give in and hit the drive-through (or make the takeout call). 

I get it! 

By the end of the day, making dinner can seem like a LOT of effort in your head…

I’m going to tell you a little story about a crazy week I had a while back. And I’m sharing this because I’m 99.9% sure you can relate.

It all started when my schedule suddenly became unexpectedly crazy (work & home).

Which meant I didn’t get a chance to work out as much as usual, or even get outside to take a walk. 

And because I was busy, my food choices were more “grab & go” than normal. And, of course, I didn't sleep well.

Which made everything feel even crazier, which made me crave even…

If you've ever had a stressful day (or year) that affected your eating habits, you are NOT alone.

In a study, more than 75% of adults said that stress played a role in their eating during the past month.

This included overeating eating junk foods, or not eating. Many of them said it happened weekly.

They also said it made them feel sluggish, lazy, disappointed in themselves, and/or irritable.

The good news is that I have a few tips below to stop stress from getting in the way of your results…

If you could call out the #1 enemy of your goals, what would it be?

There are so many to choose from:

• Not having enough time
• Lack of support
• Not knowing what to do
• Your genetics
• Pizza

The list goes on and on!

But what if I told you that none of those things are actually your enemy. (Seriously!)

That’s because … drumroll … the number one thing standing in between you and your goals is:

YOU!

We can ALL get in our own way from time to time. 

Here are just a few ways we let it happen…
