The Cost Of Staying Stuck

It's been a hot minute so in today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I update you all on everything that's been going on.And share with you the things I did to help me balance running my coaching business with moving house and training for a backyard ultra marathon!I am SO happy to be back podcasting so I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I loved recording it.

In today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I talk about the cost of staying where you, are as opposed to taking the first step towards making a change.Because the cost of staying stuck always feels smaller than it is in the moment, until you finally step away from it and realise what you've been giving up or missing out on.And I hope that with today's podcast I can inspire some of you to lean into the discomfort of reaching out for the support you need to change your life.Danni xIG: @dannibosworth (please feel free to message me on here!)For coaching enquiries: www.dannibosworth.com/coaching

Last week there was a trend going round on instagram stories where you uploaded a photo from 5 years ago (sorry, how was 2021 5 YEARS ago!?)I scrolled through my camera roll to find that this was the year I did a couple of photoshoots. The pictures I had saved ranged from lingerie to smiley pictures of me in a shirt, and I remember really enjoying these shoots.I think photoshoots can be a great personal experience. I've loved them and I have absolutely no issues with anyone else who does them. However, using heavily physique focused shots or lingerie pictures to market coaching is what doesn't sit well with me personally. Even though I love the way that I look, probably more than I ever have done before.In today's podcast I discuss that, explaining why this is my stance and discussing the changes that I'd personally love to see in the fitness industry.I'd love to hear your thoughts on this if you'd feel comfortable sharing them with me!Danni IG: @dannibosworth (please feel free to message me on here!)For coaching enquiries: www.dannibosworth.com/coaching

In today's episode of The Female Fitness Podcast I give you an insight into what coaching looks like with me, using a client case study as an example.This client came to me wanting to improve her confidence in the gym and become consistent with her training and nutrition in order to improve her health, performance, build muscle tissue, and make progress with fat loss.I discuss the individualised approach I took and how I helped her make significant progress with every goal she set out to achieve without tracking macros, harming her body image, or causing any relationship with food issues.I hope this gives you an insight into how you might effectively achieve your goals whilst improving your health and quality of life if you're on your own health and fitness journey.And if you're a coach, hopefully this gives you some food for thought when it comes to some alternative methods you could use to support your clients that aren't common practice - but result in better outcomes than your typical coaching service.For health & fitness coaching enquiries: www.dannibosworth.com/coachingFor mentorship enquiries: DM me on instagram (@dannibosworth) and let's get you booked in for a free catch up call to chat about how I might be able to support you!Danni x

I recently got a message from a listener that said she admires how consistent I am with the content I put out into the world, and the quality I maintain.This coach wants to start their own podcast but has struggled with consistency and marketing in the past, and would like me to share my advise/what works for me so I thought I’d record a podcast on the topic! For context over the last year alone I’ve lived in 3 different cities, contributed to caring for my nan when she was sick with cancer whilst living in a completely different city to her, dealt with grief, and had other big life changes take place.I share this because I don’t want you to think I have it easy, and I want to encourage you to stop waiting for perfect conditions - and to accept the fact you’re going to have to show up even when you don’t feel like it at times.I believe that’s one of the most important steps if you want to be able to show up consistently - to acknowledge the fact that you’re not always going to want to, and that it’s going to feel hard at times.In today's podcast I discuss that mindset and then beyond that the methods I use and structures I have in place that allow me to stay consistent with content creation of what I believe is a decent quality (although if you have a mind like mine, there's always room for improvement).Danni xIG: @DannibosworthWebsite: www.dannibosworth.comFor 1-2-1 Online Coaching or Mentorship enquiries you're more than welcome to drop me a DM! I'd love to hear from you, and I currently have a handful of spaces available to take on new clients in April.

Whether you're on a health and fitness journey or you're working to build a successful career as a coach, your work capacity is going to change based on your conditionsYour conditions include stress, sleep, your diet, hormones, alcohol consumption, your environment, the support you have in place, and moreIt’s important to adjust your expectations of yourself in line with those things if you wish to avoid getting frustrated and/or burnt out, rather than constantly applying forceYou'll be so much more likely to succeed with your goals over the long-term if you learn to work with your mind and body rather than against themIn today's podcast I help you wrap your head around that, using examples and analogies from my own personal experience to help drive the message homeAs always, thank you so much for sharing your time with me. It means more than you know, and I really appreciate every single one of you that goes to the effort of sending me a message!I hope you enjoyed today's episode, and I'll look forward to sharing with you again next week,Danni xMy IG: @dannibosworthFor health and fitness coaching enquiries: www.dannibosworth.com/coachingAre you a coach interested in 1-2-1 mentorship?

On Saturday a friend of mine asked me what I was training for at the moment, and my initial answer was ‘nothing really’.I then corrected myself - because despite not training for a specific competition or end date, my training DOES have real purpose.I’m training for both my current and future self.I don’t know about you, but I want to be strong and capable.I want to be healthy, feel good, function well, and live a vibrant life.I love being able to show up for those in my life as the best version of me. Both the people in my personal life, and my clients.That is a big enough reason for me to show up and invest in my health and fitness consistently.Fitness competitions and races can be great! I love them, and many of my clients work towards them too.But it’s important to give your efforts meaning beyond these external goals and identify your why beyond the races or competitions you’re working towards.To recognise whilst they’re amazing when the time is right, there’s a time and a place to remove the pressure of them.And to acknowledge that YOU alone are enough of a reason to show up consistently and invest in yourself.In today’s podcast I remind you of that, and share a bit about where I’m currently at with not having a fitness competition, race, or end date that I’m working towards,Danni xInstagram: @dannibosworthCoaching Enquiries: www.dannibosworth.com

I believe it's important for me to practice what I preach as a coach, putting the tools and methods into practice that I recommend to clients.So in today's episode of the female fitness podcast I share some insights into my own journey when it comes to my relationship with myself, work, my body, and rest.And how the progress I've made has impacted my life both personally and professionally.I hope you find today's episode of the podcast insightful and I hope it inspires you to work on your relationship with your own self and body, knowing how much it could change your life.As always, please don't hesitate to drop me a DM at @dannibosworth on Instagram! I love hearing from you.For coaching enquiries: www.dannibosworth.com

Intention setting helps us behave more consciously rather than passively. When we’re working to change our behaviour it’s going to be a conscious effort, it’s not going to happen without thought or intention.Often social occasions are where people feel like they’ve ‘slipped up’ with their goals whatever they may be, or behaved in a way they don’t want to behave. This can be down to factors such as being out of routine and the challenges that come with that, being surrounded by lots of delicious food, or the mindset we have around the occasion if we have tried to enforce a restrictive approach throughout the rest of the week or if we have an all or nothing mindset for example.It’s common when we’ve struggled with our relationship with food in the past for challenging thought processes to come up during social occasions - or for us to fall back into old patterns of behaviour such as overeating or restriction.So here are some questions you might work through prior to any social occasions you go to, that might help encourage you to behave in a way that is supportive of your goals and relationship with food, and allow you to enjoy these occasions so much more!If you'd like a written copy to work through some intention setting prior to your next social occasion or meal out, you can get yours here:https://www.canva.com/design/DAHEHonOA9o/3-zYnh9rYkSyd31IYoRgPg/view?utm_content=DAHEHonOA9o&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=uniquelinks&utlId=h1732b17159(it's free!)Or DM me the word 'intentions' on IG and I'll send it over on there,See you next week!Danni x

Period tracking apps CAN be incredibly helpful. I use them myself at times, and I have clients who use them too!But there are occasions where they could be doing more harm than good for you as an individual - for example if they're becoming a self fulfilling prophesy, driving up your stress levels, or if you can't stop checking them.So in today's podcast I discuss that. Talking through the facts as well as my own experience personally and that of working with 100's of clients over the last 10 years. I also discuss why it's important not to become too attached to other forms of data such as steps and scale weight, and share my own journey with moving away from meticulous with numerical data after transitioning away from bodybuilding!As always, thank you so much for sharing your time with me.For enquiries:www.dannibosworth.comIf you'd like to reach out with feedback, requests, or just to chat:@dannibosworth on Instagram
