Description

If you've ever said, "I just need to get motivated," this episode is for you. The truth is, motivation doesn't show up first—it follows action. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the common belief that you need to feel motivated in order to start making healthy choices.

I’ll walk you through why waiting for motivation is keeping you stuck and what you can do instead to build real momentum in your health journey. You’ll learn how to take those first small steps—even when you don’t feel like it—and why that’s exactly what gets the motivation flowing.

Whether you want to eat better, get moving again, or just stop starting over every Monday, this episode will help you shift the way you think about action, motivation, and the habits that lead to lasting change.\

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why motivation isn't the spark—it’s the result
  • The mindset shift that gets you moving even when you’re “not feeling it”
  • What to do on the days when you’d rather scroll or snack
  • Why starting small matters more than feeling inspired
  • The real reason you're not taking action (and how to fix it)
