Join Our 8 Week Challenge HERE https://theclubhouse1.lpages.co/8-wk-fall-challenge/ In this episode, I share ten lessons that reframe the way we think about fitness. I talk about why mindset, consistency, and perspective matter so much more than trying to be perfect. Through different analogies—like the GPS example for navigating challenges, the delayed growth of the Chinese bamboo tree, and the power of making micro-corrections—I explain how fitness is really a journey with ups and downs, not a straight line. I also break down the idea that fitness has seasons, and why persistence will always beat perfection. My hope is that this episode encourages you to take a more realistic and forgiving approach to your own journey.
