About this listen

Imagine this…the weather is starting to get cooler, and it’s time to get out the winter clothes. You’ve been doing great, working hard with managing your portions, making some solid choices and feeling truly proud of yourself. But that box of winter clothes looms and you can hear the ominous eerie music in your head. Will the jeans fit?

You put on those jeans for the first time this season - and of course they’re freshly washed and not stretched out at all, so they’re kinda tight. A little snug.

And all that great work you’ve been doing, all those positive thoughts you’ve been cultivating, go out the window. Your brain goes straight to its old favorite soundtrack, “This will never work.”

You start thinking, What’s the point? And then… you hide. You stop planning your food. You stop reaching out to your AG. and You eat because it feels like there’s no point in trying anyway.

Why does your brain do that? Why does it shut down motivation the second there’s a bump in the road?

In today’s episode, we’ll cover:

  • Why overwhelm makes your brain time-travel into hopelessness
  • The sneaky science of why motivation disappears at the first sign of “failure”
  • How to stop performing and start learning — so your brain stays on your side

As well as how to trade “ugh” for “hmmm” and find your way back to confidence.

Are you ready to wrangle overwhelm and win back your motivation? Aw yeah.

Let’s go!
