Why the right support can help you meet your wellness goals

This week, we’re talking about how to coach yourself with compassion — no whistles, no harsh pep talks, just gentle encouragement and small wins that add up.
We chat about:
✅ Why we’re done with strict rules and tiny, measurable goals (sorry, Monday Resets!)
✅ Kate Bowler’s books and her beautiful reminders to embrace imperfect days
✅ James Clear’s idea of getting just 1 percent better
✅ Adding wellness wins into everyday life (power bowls, restorative yoga, and even Packers couch coaching)
✅ Handling setbacks with grace (thanks, Grandma Sara!)
✅ Planning your day with intention, not pressure
We’re all about keeping things light, happy, and real — because sometimes the best coach is the one who cheers you on with kindness.

Leah convinces Eydie that we've come further than we think, even though we don't always give ourselves enough credit. Leah makes an earnest attempt to explain a makeup technique for hooded eyes, and Eydie admits that Mel Robbins is occasionally correct, even though she's bossy. (As if Eydie isn't!)
