This episode is all about embracing change and taking the first step toward transformation, whether it’s in fitness, career, relationships, or lifestyle. I emphasize that change starts with truth, you must first accept who you are today before you can grow into who you want to become.
Key Takeaways:
1. Start with the Truth – Look in the mirror and acknowledge where you are, without self-hate but with honesty. Who you are today is a result of your past habits, but who you become depends on what you do now.
2. Take the First Step – Change begins with small, consistent actions. Your first workout, your first walk, your first better decision builds momentum. Over time, these small steps stack up and create real transformation.
3. Build Evidence of Change – At first, you may not believe you’re the person you want to be, but each step forward provides proof that you are becoming that person.
4. Keep Moving Forward, Even When It’s Hard – When life gets busy or tough, don’t stop completely. Instead, take a smaller step—do a shorter workout, take a shorter walk—so you maintain momentum rather than starting over later.

LIVING WITH INTENTION. ❤️
We have so much power and control over how we direct our energy and focus towards our own actions and thoughts that serve us every day.
These literally are completely within our control.
I personally have begun becoming more aware of my own actions and thoughts that are not intentional and not serving me in creating the person I want to become and replacing them with ones that do.
I hope you can too!😊
MUCH LOVE!❤️
