146. Unf*cking Your Fitness: Real Talk on What’s *Really* Holding You Back From Having the Body You Want

Happy New Year!! I wanted to kick off the first episode of 2025 in true Kristy Castillo fashion with some #realtalk (I know those are your favorite).

I recently posted a question on my Instagram stories about what’s *really* holding you back from having the body you want. I received sooo many amazing responses, and I wanted to share several of those in today’s episode (thank you for taking the time to answer if you did)!

As I read through your responses, it became crystal clear to me that we ALL struggle, and honestly, it’s so much of the same stuff. From staying consistent and being ‘motivated’ to work out and eat better, to being addicted to sweets and alcohol, getting discouraged about how our bodies ‘look’, and everything in between, we all have insecurities, and we ALL struggle.

While it’s comforting to know that we’re not alone in feeling this way, we also can’t stay stuck here. So much of the time, WE are the ones holding ourselves back, and WE are the ones who are in control of changing things for the better! 

After you listen to this episode, take some time to break down what’s REALLY holding you back from having the body you want. Don’t spend another year doing the same shit - otherwise, you’re going to have the same body, the same poor health, and the same struggles.

I’m excited for some changes happening within my own life and business (I’ll be sharing more details, so stay tuned)! As always, I’m truly grateful to have you as a podcast listener and friend, and I LOVE hearing that this podcast has positively impacted your life. 

Cheers to more unf*cking your fitness in 2025!!
