Ep. 202 Are You Pushing or Pulling Yourself To Your Goals? There's A Difference
Manage episode 455786087 series 2880523
I was baby-sitting a 5-year-old girl (NOT my perfect little niece from this video) when I found myself shocked into silence…
My goal to get her to take a shower suddenly felt unimportant as I watched her stand in front of the mirror, put her hands on her cute little 5-year-old belly, and say
“I’m fat.”
No idea how to respond (I was 16 at the time), I defaulted to “don’t say that!”
Of course, considering I was talking to a 5 year old, this just prompted a “why?”
I too thought “why?”
WHY is a FIVE year old girl picking apart her body?
I was very familiar with the struggles of comparing my body to other girls in high school, finding myself wearing looser shirts and positioning myself in photos to hide the parts of my body I was ashamed of…
But this was when I first realized just how much diet culture and negative body talk affect us.
When women say “I can’t eat that” or “I’m on a diet”… girls hear that too.
This has always been a deep driver for me as a coach…
Despite the 1000+ women my team and I have coached over the last 5 years, I was NOT put on this earth to help women lose weight.
I was put on this earth to help women LOVE their bodies by HEALING them.
Is weight loss often a part of that journey toward health? For sure! And our girls are dang proud of the external transformations they achieve.
But these transformations come from a place of LOVE and wanting to give ourselves the gift of consistent energy, regular PMS-free cycles, freedom to eat foods without fear of GI issues… not from a place of self-hate or shame.
In this episode, we'll discuss how to pull yourselves toward your goals in a positive way rather than being pushed by ego or in negative ways. This is a powerful mindset shift to head into the new year with and we hope you start adopting it today!
