Hey there. I’ve learned that setting weekly goals for weight loss isn’t about pushing yourself to exhaustion, it’s about building a structure that works with your life instead of against it. For years I tried the “go all in” approach, the one where you set huge goals and feel like you’re failing the second you don’t hit them perfectly. That way of thinking left me frustrated and burned out. What changed everything for me was learning how to set up goals in a way that felt calm, repeatable, and effective.

Hey there. Weight loss is emotional. I think that is something we can all agree on. There’s history tied up in it, and there are feelings that surface every time we step on the scale, try on clothes, or think back to the messages we’ve heard about our bodies for years. I’ve spent much of my life, like many of you, being aware of my body and trying to change it. What I’ve learned is that the key isn’t to ignore those emotions, but to honor them and then create systems where emotions don’t run the show.

Hey there. I used to think every fitness goal had to feel a little scary or it would not push me forward. Over time I noticed a pattern. When I barely reached the target I felt relief not confidence. When I blew past the target I felt unstoppable. That insight led me to Minimum Daily Actions. A Minimum Daily Action is the smallest version of a habit I want to practice most days. It sits just under my current capability so I can exceed it with a little extra effort.

Hey there. One of the biggest shifts I’ve made in how I approach goals, both for myself and for the people I work with, is this…I no longer aim to barely meet goals. I set them up so I can exceed them.

Hey there. Confidence is a choice. That might sound strange, but the truth is, confidence doesn’t come from repeating actions until you eventually believe in yourself. It starts with the belief first. You decide that you are capable, that you can navigate challenges, and that you have what it takes. From there, your actions reinforce that belief instead of being the thing you’re relying on to create it.

Hey there. You ever feel like loving yourself is a concept that sounds good in theory, but when it comes to actually doing it, you hesitate? You’re not alone. For a lot of us, especially when we’re on a weight loss journey or trying to “better” ourselves, it feels like loving who we are right now is the exact opposite of what we should be doing. But what if I told you that loving yourself isn’t just a feel-good idea, it’s the foundation for real change?

Hey there. How curious are you in your day-to-day life? I mean really... do you ever wonder how things work, how people got to where they are, or why certain situations unfold the way they do? Curiosity often gets overlooked as we grow older, but I believe it’s essential for keeping life fresh, keeping us fresh.
