  • NLP599 - The Missing Link in Your Fitness Success: Gratitude

    NLP599 - The Missing Link in Your Fitness Success: Gratitude
    Aug 10 2024

    In this solo episode of the Next Level Health and Fitness Podcast, I open up about a recent realization that I haven’t been practicing gratitude in my own life, even though it’s something I preach regularly. This shift in perspective made me aware of how my lack of gratitude was holding me back from truly appreciating my journey. I relate this experience to the fitness journey, where so many of us overlook our progress and successes in the relentless pursuit of more. I explore the importance of finding a balance between striving for improvement and being grateful for the steps we’ve already taken.

    KNP594 - Embrace the Boring - Learning to Fall in Love with the Process
    Jul 23 2024

    In this solo episode of The Key Nutrition Podcast, I open up about a recent funk I've been experiencing and relate it to the common struggles many face on their fat loss or fitness journeys. I discuss how most people give up because the strategies that yield long-term success are often mundane and repetitive. By highlighting the importance of doing the seemingly small tasks consistently, I emphasize the need to fall in love with the journey and process rather than focusing solely on the end results. If you’re someone who has struggled with that part, definitely tune in! We must learn to embrace some of the boring parts of this journey. Tune in to hear my insights on staying committed and finding joy in the everyday steps towards your goals.
