Have you ever questioned why you do the things you do, especially when it comes to your health and weight loss?

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the power of mindset.

Often overlooked, mindset is the missing piece that drives your actions—whether it’s losing motivation quickly or falling back into old habits.

But if you’re ready to lose weight, keep it off, and truly change from the inside out, this episode is for you.

I’ll share how mindset coaching helps you not only reach your goals but also accept and embrace yourself along the way.

Questions:

• What do you believe is normal for your health and lifestyle?
• Who do you want to become, and how does that align with your current habits?
• Are you truly living the life you want? Or is it holding you back?
• What emotions are being triggered by your current habits, and how are they affecting your well-being?
