Ever feel like you’re doing all the right things—meal planning, moving your body, working on your mindset—but NOTHING seems to be happening? The scale won’t budge, the jeans aren’t fitting any differently, and you start thinking, “What’s the freaking point?!”
If you’ve been stuck in what feels like a never-ending plateau or wondering if your hard work is even making a difference, this episode is your pep talk, strategy session, and permission slip to keep going. Because here’s the truth: progress often looks invisible before it shows up externally. And most women quit right here—right before the breakthrough. Not you.
Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own major plateaus (think: two separate times I wanted to quit for MONTHS) and sharing exactly how to keep going even when you don’t see results… yet. We’re getting real about why your habits are working (even if you can’t see it), why consistency always beats intensity, and how focusing on your journey—not the ‘ideal’ or someone else’s Instagram highlight reel—changes everything.
Whether you’re plateauing, burned out, or just wondering if your efforts are worth it, this episode is your reminder: just because you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it’s not working.
If you’re ready to ditch the all-or-nothing mindset and actually enjoy your journey, this one’s for you.
xoxo,
Jackie
