    Have you ever had the thought, “I have so much weight to lose. It'll take forever.”? Or maybe this one resonates a little more: “I do well for [fill in the blank amount of time] and then I fall back into my old habits. After a while I just say ‘screw it.’” Or here’s a doozy: “I should never have gained this weight. I feel broken.”

    Today we’re talking about how we argue for our limitations. Spoiler alert - if you argue for your limitations, you get to keep them.

    We’re diving into:

    • why we focus more on our limitations than our capabilities
    • How it’s not your fault that your brain tends to go there
    • And 3 specific steps to help you shift your lens from focusing on what you can’t do to what you CAN do.

    If you ever want to get “there” then you’ve got to start where you are - right here.

You’re feeling great, but instead of celebrating, you’re already worrying about slipping back. Why is it that even when things go right, we can’t fully enjoy it?

    What if, instead of guarding ourselves against disappointment, we’re actually holding back from fully living? What would happen if you let go of those thoughts and allowed yourself to explore what you might be capable of?

    In today’s episode, we’ll cover how fear of backsliding keeps you stuck in the cycle of self-doubt, why it feels so scary to feel good, and how to shift into a mindset that helps you grow instead of holding you back. Plus, we’ll dive into practical tips on having the courage to ditch those limiting beliefs and embrace the good things happening.

    Ready to ditch the doubt and dive into the real progress you’re capable of?
