#156 - Change is never easy. Your struggle is your greatest asset in the direction of success w/ Shane Walsh
THE MEAT OF THIS STARTS AT THE 7 MINUTE MARK!
You putting meaning to other peoples words
Words have no meaning unless you put it there.
Our thoughts are the biggest eye into everything going on in us that is a reflection of our experiences.
Reframe
New reality
You are going to struggle
Success isn’t about opportunity – its about taking what you got and creating your success
Use the struggles as your assets.
Caring what other people think.
People are so absorbed in their own thing. We think too much about what others think about us when we don’t care.
He said he was miserable in his job – also overweight – he felt he had to do that job.
Down a path he didn’t want to go.
Parents beliefs
What hes always known
Perfectionism
Doing something for yourself
Its going to be hard work
Change is never easy
You need to actually do the thing
What stories do we tell ourself that keep us stuck in comfort – how do you deal with breaking through hesitation
Book time for you
Showing up for you so you show up for the kids
You set the precedence in the past – so it continues – motivation
You are a mother but that isn’t your identity – you are you, you are a mother.
______
Name the voice in your head - be aware
Inner dialogue
Set of values you created for yourself - thought
Fact or opinion
SIT - PAUSE – WRITE –
What if people are lingering on the past
What is your approach to doing the inner work?
Being about to build up a stronger shield against the thoughts – against the lets call it bad habits.
______
YOU DON’T KNOW YOUR WHY
THE WHY
THE WHY
ITS BECAUSE YOU THINK THE WHY IS WEIGHT LOSS
MOVEMENT IS MENTAL HEALTH
STOP procrastinating
Action ramp
Cant change the mind with the mind
Small output overtime gets you to your destination.
I have failed and I have succeeded is usually the game of fitness
We need to stop that
Stop trying to control the outcome and identifying with failure and what others want us to be
Don’t let the clothes wear you either – make sure you wear them.
People don’t say, hey I'm 70kg nice to meet you
Or introduce themselves by weight

#155 Thinking its ONLY 'eat less move more", "calories" - keeps you STUCK - DIG DEEPER w JEB JOHNSTON
How what you believe about yourself and your identity can shape your actions.
You will fail
Being in the present, work on the now. Not on the past.
That is there, it will show its self up. But its in the past.
Facts from narrative.
Separate the story
Someone always does something to us
Stop playing the victim.
What is the real narrative? – we usually have images in our mind that are better than they really were.
Could the potential of just anticipating failure or even just the way we see ourself feed that.
Ownership and getting real with the reality of the lifestyle and how yoru environment and identity shape it. Like
How does it make you show up better –
Ou don’t realise this until you actually start doing the things and paying attention to all this and actually consistently doing it and checking in with yourself
People don’t slowdoen for this
Stop trying to find a way around what you know to be true. You will have to change to see change. You will have to step up and put in work. And that means weekends too.
DBT is all about 2 things being opposing but coexisting –
But the KEY HERE IS THE DESIRE TO MOVE FORWARD AND BE OUR BEST SELF.
BUT WE DIDN’T START THIS WAY -
How you do one thing is how you do everything
take away and replace – you just want to break the cycle. Its okay to do it – its okay to allow it to repeat for now, we are just practicing the awareness and adding in
Overwhelm will always be there until we can actually break it down
But you need to be willing to.
And that’s why writing is so important and putting it on paper – because you can keep repeating it.
You can keep recognising the same thing – you will lean more about yourself. You will grow in the process.
You learn what not to do.
You have these roadblocks on the way to where you WANT to go.
Put them in place for what you don’t want.
Via strength test
Relationship with self.
“If we nail our diet 80% of the time we are golden.” Maybe you tasted a few times too many while making dinner? Finished the kid’s plates while cleaning up?
Not to say any of it is inherently devils work but taking ownership of the situation at hand - us as coaches can only do so much but we don't know what we don't know when things like this are happening.
Do we want to be right or do you want to be effective – give up being right
If we can manipulate our environment, increase our movement independent of exercise, and manage our emotions (stress) we are gonna knock down a lot more pins. Or we can continue to say the words “calorie deficit” and turn our backs on the very things that are waiting to destroy any chance of that happening.
We’ve all heard the phrase “make the hard thing easy”.
A common statement I hear is, “I’ll do better next week”. While that is an awesome sentiment, we all should strive for better, it’s also somewhat meaningless.
What will you do today to be better? What exactly? What specific actions will you take that will differentiate today from yesterday?
Set yourself up for success by being specific with your change. Set yourself up by acting with intent. Don’t let your goals fall away for lack of focus. Make them real by making them into action steps.

#154 From DIET STRUGGLES to RESULTS, how to THRIVE and unleash your STRONG and SEXY w JEB JOHNSTON
Be willing to feel
You need to be willing to feel
You can’t be happy if you are stuck in the future or the past.
People think they are stuck right now but that because they aren’t living in the moment.
_____________________________
People have history behind them of it already
Women – body issues – how does that feed into how they steer their eating patterns.
Self awareness –
Understanding that food is not JUST fuel or sustenance theres so much around it.
We lose sight of all the external environment
Environment about key –
Food is never a solution
Comfort – shame points
I just have to work hard and I got it – doesn’t work that way.
Mentors have mentors.
You can try work it out yourself, or get someone whos been there or specialised in it.
You need to be willing to explore emotions.
Future thinking, being in the moment, being okay with where you are.

#153 IMAGINE what you CAN ACHIEVE w/ THIS approach +fiery sex/ self control isnt the issue-Shannon Beer
Cognitive dissonance
You have to be aware of how you think to then address them
How we think about ourselves is how we perceive our environment and interactions
so many people are so busy being human doings that they aren’t sitting with themselves to allow this growing process to happen
SO THEY STAY STUCK
Slowing down to allow awareness and then ownership
Perfectionism – vs
Identifying with these labels
identity and labels sabotage this and then lead into unrealistic expectations
Must ___ or else ____
Striving vs concerns
Moving toward vs moving away from
Discomfort
Importance of RESTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
writing
hobbies
Allows more flexibility
Lag time for change
Striving for perfection can be harmful - you can want to be great without it becoming something crippling you as so many of us are scared of set backs, of failure.
Sometimes our personal standards become unrelenting.
We learn to base our self-worth on these pursuits.
Stop identifying with your failures. Mistakes don’t prevent us from reaching our goals.
Stop identifying with your failures. Mistakes don’t prevent us from reaching our goals.
The issue is that most of us are pretty hard on ourselves when we feel like we’ve slipped up.
And it’s the way we respond to our mistakes that really matters.
When we blame ourselves, not only does it make us feel bad, but this is usually where the ‘self-sabotage’ begins to occur.
We’re total failures, so what does it matter now, right?
And so the cycle begins.
The mistake isn’t the problem.
One small slip up doesn’t make you a total failure.
If you struggle with this, give the exercise on the slides a go.
When you make an error, cross out one small I.
Recognise how the Big I (you) stays intact, even when you make a few mistakes.
You can get comfortable looking at your mistakes without condemning yourself as a person.
When you do, you can use your mistakes as opportunities to learn and grow.
body image bleeds into sexual satisfaction and libido - approach to GOALS , food and training will reflect this AND HOW CONSISTENT youa re or arent - and how stuck you will get or not
It would take out the JOY from what they do and more so be focused on fixing it, and then the lack of sexual satisfaction is like a never ending cucle playing into how they feel about themself, their body their eating behavious etc and can lead to i guess more binging, emotional eating, but i think the biggest thing is not actually being okay to stop and really have time out to spend time with the self - so they never really work through the root of it all - perhaps you can dig into that, and how you usually would approach situations like this,
I guess both in only focusing solely on a physical pursuit and never digging deeper so they can actually achieve the results they are seeking that last for life, as well as working through those barriers to change due to discomfort.

#152. If you want the best fruit, don't plant your seed is shitty soil.
If you want good outcomes ... you need to tick all the steps needed in the process. For both the plantation of the intention, the in between of weeding, getting your hands dirty, getting yourself UNCOMFORTABLE in the shitty weathers to nourish your seed..... You need to do the work and gather the tools, the fertilizers, the amplifiers that allow it..... the days in between are about patience 😌 until its time to go work again. And a farmer needs rest and sleep. If you don't take rest, nor recovery - your brain fog and cognitive processes may you pulling out YOUR plantations vs the weeds, mistaking the fertilizer for the poison.

#148; people are UNDER-MUSCLED more so than overfat // you can't f*k this up - ARAM GRIGORIAN
FORGET the timeline in your head -
some goals cant be reached at the same time
– stop being married to exercises - Asking is this better than _________
GROUP FITNESS – HUFFY PUFFY TRAINING - great to enter the gym, then its just plain cardio crap -
PROTEIN - the nutrient of youth -
How it goes beyond muscle – where else is protein so beneficial
With every choice theres a sacrifice or consequence.
Get realistic with your goals
Align your expectation to your reality and what you are willing to give up
People don’t know what they want
They think they know – but really people just want to look better, feel better, and see their body looking stronger, leaner and wearing clothes with confidence and feeling good in them without going to the unrealistic level – social media lets people down there
Have different protein options available to you – and even go to the store a few times to top up on protein because there are always carbs and fats available.
- You aren’t going to inconvenience people with your eating habits
- Plan ahead with meals
- You are a sum of your accumulated habits in your life
- Youre choosing NOT to do it that way
- Youre choosing to be a victim to the situation
- I care about my body, myself, my performance, my gut health and how I feel–
- Your children pick up your habits
Stop lying to yourself -- You really can fk it up
Don’t miss more than 3 workouts in a row
Never spend a whole day on your ass
___ decision making on Sunday missing days on your life -
