163. Unf*ck Your Mindset: Focus on Fitness Gains, Not Losses
Dec 22, 2025
I’ve got a simple + powerful mindset shift for you in today’s episode!
When it comes to your fitness journey, it’s sooo easy to think about all that you’re losing. Maybe you’re cutting out certain foods and drinks during a ‘cut’ phase (what I’m doing right now to prepare for summer), not going out for special occasions as much, etc. - you get the picture.
Instead of focusing on all that you’re losing or giving up right now, focus on all that you’re gaining! It doesn’t have to be a super negative, ‘woe is me’ situation, because there can be so much GOOD on the other side of what you’re doing!
You are in charge of how you want to look and feel, and it’s important that this is in alignment with your fitness goals. When you’re following a plan or program that is realistic & sustainable for YOU, then you’ll stay committed, trust the process, and actually enjoy the journey more.
It’s time to flip the script and unf*ck your mindset, because you’re gaining so MUCH on your fitness journey. You’ve got this!!
Episode Recap:
- Shifting your mentality from what you’re losing on your fitness journey to instead, what you’re gaining
- Choosing how you want to look & feel + aligning this with your goals
- Realizing that your sacrifice(s) won’t be a matter of ‘if’, but ‘when’
- Why the physical aspect can be super motivating
