In this episode, I sit down with work-life balance coach Rebecca Olsen to talk about why the holidays feel so overwhelming for so many women - and what to do about it. We unpack the invisible load moms carry this time of year, the outdated expectations we quietly inherit, and the patterns that lead to overcommitting and burning out. Rebecca shares simple, doable mindset shifts and micro-habits that help moms get grounded fast, reclaim their energy, and design a holiday season that actually feels good for their immediate family. If you've ever entered December already exhausted and want to enter the New Year feeling different, this conversation will feel like a permission slip to do things differently this year.

In this final episode of our 3-part Mindset Series, we're diving into the one thing that has to come before workouts, meal plans, or even motivation: self-belief. If you don't truly believe you can reach your fitness goals, every temptation or setback will feel like proof that it's not possible, and you'll sabotage before you even give yourself a chance. I'll share why belief is so essential, how to build it step by step, and the daily habits that reinforce it so you stop quitting on yourself and finally follow through. If you've ever thought, "Maybe this just won't work for me," this episode will show you how to flip that script for good.    Want more motivation, accountability and support in your fitness journey?  Apply to work with a coach on my Elite level coaching team!  Let's hop on a call and chat through your goals and struggles and see if we are a good fit to work together!    Apply for a free strategy call here!    Send me a DM on Instagram or Facebook!

We all know that lasting results in fitness and weight loss come from more than just workouts and meal plans—they come from changing who we believe we are.

You'll learn how thoughts, feelings, emotions, and actions connect to create your results, why questioning your beliefs is so powerful, and the two "million-dollar questions" that can change the way you see yourself forever.
