All-Or-Nothing Thinking is RUINING Your Progress Ep. 06

Society drills conditional happiness into our heads at a young age. We are told achievement is the way to success. Magazines with 30-day bikini to ready bodies remind us that we are not enough.

The ones who rave about great results are the ones who have all of these qualities and mindsets. Success in a diet is not determined by how fast you can get there, but by how sustainable it is in the end.

Perfectionists: I’m calling you out. Accepting nothing less than smooth sailing is the reason you are stalling a lot of progress and potentially burning out in the process.

After reflecting on her recent two year anniversary of leaving my 9-5 job, Lauren shares the top mistakes and lessons she learned from starting her fitness coaching business.
