In this episode, I’m talking about the least flashy but most important part of your health journey: your mindset. If you keep starting strong and then falling off, feeling overwhelmed, or jumping from plan to plan, it might not be a discipline problem - it could be self-sabotage patterns running in the background. I break down the most common ones I see in women and explain why real, lasting change comes from small daily shifts, not big, dramatic overhauls.
