We’ve all experienced that intense desire for change – the moment when we commit to a new diet, workout routine, or health goal with the best of intentions. But far too often, it comes with an all-or-nothing mentality: "If I can’t stick to this perfectly, why bother at all?" This mindset can be paralyzing, leading to burnout, frustration, or, worse, inaction. However, there’s a healthier, more effective way to approach change. By shifting from an all-or-nothing approach to one that embraces incremental progress, you can achieve lasting success without the stress.     Instagram: www. instagram.com/wholehealthempower FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/619968441854520/ 3 Way to eat better workbook: https://triciard.com/workbook/ GRAB YOUR FREEBIE HERE! 5 things you should be doing today if you are over 40! https://upbeat-hustler-2294.ck.page/06d0e2ccf9 Whole Health Empowerment FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wholehealthempower Website: https://triciard.com/    

Episode Description: When it comes to making lasting changes in your health and wellness, one of the biggest obstacles is often ourselves. We say things like "I'll try to eat better," or "Maybe I'll work out tomorrow." This kind of passive language might feel safe, but it’s also what keeps us stuck in the planning phase rather than actually taking action. In order to see real results—whether it’s losing weight, boosting your energy, or improving mental clarity—you need to move from passive intention to active commitment. In other words, shift from saying "I’ll try" to "I’m committed." Here's how.   Instagram: www. instagram.com/wholehealthempower FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/619968441854520/ 3 Way to eat better workbook: https://triciard.com/workbook/ GRAB YOUR FREEBIE HERE! 5 things you should be doing today if you are over 40! https://upbeat-hustler-2294.ck.page/06d0e2ccf9 Whole Health Empowerment FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wholehealthempower Website: https://triciard.com/

It’s easy to fall into the comparison trap when it comes to health, wellness, and self-care. You might find yourself thinking, “Everyone else is doing better than me” as you scroll through social media, see others at the gym, or hear about someone’s latest health achievement.  This mindset can lead to frustration, self-doubt, and a feeling of inadequacy. The truth is, everyone is on their own journey, and the only person you should be comparing yourself to is the person you were yesterday. Shifting from comparison to self-compassion is essential for a healthy mindset, and here’s how to start.
