The Real Reason Habits Fail Why Consistency Has Nothing to Do With Motivation Habits don’t fail because you’re lazy. Learn why self-criticism breaks consistency — and how to make habits lighter and more sustainable.   In this episode, Kara explains why habits don’t fail due to lack of discipline or motivation. You’ll learn how self-criticism, pressure, and unrealistic expectations make habits feel heavy — and how consistency comes from ease, not effort.

January often brings pressure instead of hope — especially for women who feel like they’ve “started over” too many times.

You’ll learn why restarts break confidence, how unspoken needs show up through food, and how to move forward without extremes. Key Takeaways: Why starting over chips away at self-trust The connection between voice, food, and self-care How to begin January with experience, not pressure Why small promises matter more than motivation Reflection Questions: What did I learn about myself last year? Where have I been too hard on myself? What’s one small promise I can keep this week? If you want weight loss to feel calmer and more doable, watch the free webinar: 👉 www.coachingkara.com/signup

Create a clear, motivating, compassionate vision for your new year so weight loss feels doable, not overwhelming. Most women create visions that are unrealistic, overwhelming, or based on pressure. But real success comes from creating a vision that feels doable, calm, and aligned with your life — not someone else’s.

You’ll learn: Why most New Year visions fail • How to create a vision that actually inspires you • How to pick 1–2 core feelings for the year • How to design a realistic day in your life • What NOT to bring into the new year • One anchor habit that builds momentum Reflection Questions: How do I want to feel next year?

Let go of what didn’t work this year, release the shame and pressure, and learn how to carry only what helps you grow into the new year. Most women end the year replaying everything that didn’t work. But carrying shame, pressure, and unrealistic expectations into the new year only slows you down. In this episode, we talk about how to release the habits, plans, thoughts, and “shoulds” that didn’t fit your life — so you can start the new year feeling lighter and more confident. In This Episode You’ll Learn: Why letting go is necessary for progress • How to release shame, guilt, and old diet rules • Why some habits weren’t meant to work • What to carry forward into the new year • Reflection questions to reset your mindset Reflection Questions: What didn’t work for me this year?

Most women end the year focused on everything they didn’t do… what they didn’t lose… or how “inconsistent” they were. But today, we’re flipping that. In this episode, we’re celebrating the wins you did have — the small ones, the quiet ones, and the ones you’ve probably forgotten about. These wins are the foundation of sustainable weight loss. And you made more progress than you think. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why celebrating your wins helps you lose weight • What counts as a “real” win (hint: everything counts!) • Why slow progress is still powerful progress • How to reflect on your year with curiosity instead of judgment • The ONE question to ask yourself to build momentum for January Reflection Questions From This Episode: What did I learn about myself this year? Where did I show up for myself in tiny, consistent ways? What did I handle this year that the old me couldn’t? What win am I most proud of — even if no one else knows about it?

 Let’s get honest for a minute… This past week, the scale jumped up 4 pounds. Yep, four. And instead of spiraling into guilt, shame, or “I ruined everything,” I’m walking you through what really happened—and the mindset that keeps me moving forward without the self-sabotage. In this Live, I’m sharing: ✨ What I ate ✨ Where I overate ✨ What went right (yes, there were wins!) ✨ What I learned ✨ Why the scale went up ✨ And how to bounce back without beating yourself up Because even after losing 70+ pounds, I still have weekends with friends, new restaurants, appetizer nights, emotional dinners, distracted eating, higher-sodium foods, bloating… ALL the real-life stuff. And NONE of it means I’m failing. If you’ve ever had a week where the scale jumps up and your brain wants to panic, quit, or be mean to yourself—this Live is for you.

Drop a ❤️ if you’ve ever had a scale jump and thought “Oh no… what did I do?” You’re not alone, and you’re not off track.
