In this episode of Miles from Her View, Kat discusses how to navigate the busy holiday season without letting stress derail your fitness goals. She emphasizes the importance of finding balance and joy in the festivities, offering actionable tips that focus on nutrition, hydration, movement, and flexibility. Here’s a quick breakdown:

1. Food: Don’t skip meals to "save calories" for later. Eat balanced meals throughout the day to avoid overeating at holiday meals. Kat reminds listeners that one off day won’t ruin long-term progress.
2. Hydration: With cooler weather and travel, it's easy to forget to hydrate. Staying hydrated helps maintain energy and supports digestion, especially if you’re indulging in alcohol.
3. Movement: Kat suggests incorporating light physical activities like walks or family games to stay active during the holidays without feeling like you need a structured workout.
4. Plan Ahead: While you don’t need to schedule every minute, being mindful of your well-being can help you make healthier choices, whether it’s staying hydrated or squeezing in a bit of movement.

Lastly, Kat stresses that after the holidays, don’t try to "make up" for indulgences. Simply resume your usual habits, focusing on whole foods, hydration, and mobility. The key is finding what works best for you and remembering that it’s okay to take breaks without guilt.

Tired of relying on willpower to reach your goals? This episode dives into how you can set yourself up for success by creating systems and routines that reduce decision fatigue and help you stay consistent, even on your busiest days.

Key Takeaways:

• Decision Fatigue is Real: Constantly making daily decisions drains your willpower. Planning meals, workouts, and critical tasks ahead of time frees up mental energy to keep you on track with your goals.
• Schedule It In: Don’t just think about working out—put it on your calendar! This turns a vague intention into a solid commitment.
• Small Efforts, Big Results: Don’t fall into the "all or nothing" trap. Consistency beats intensity. Even a short 10-minute workout is better than skipping it. Celebrate those small wins and focus on building momentum.
• Minimum Viable Routine: Create a simple routine you can stick to, even on your busiest days. Honoring your capacity doesn’t mean lowering your standards.
• Environmental Cues: Set up your space to support your goals. This might look like prepping your workout clothes the night before, having healthy snacks ready, or keeping your workout gear in a distraction-free zone.

Remember: Simple doesn’t mean easy. Building new habits takes work, but it’s worth it! By designing your life around your goals, you’ll achieve more with less willpower and stress.

Are you tired of doing it all on your own? Let’s make those goals happen together!

At KatFit Strength, we focus on creating simple yet powerful routines that fit into your life—no more relying on willpower alone. Ready to take the next step? Let’s discuss how we can build a plan tailored just for you. 💪

Episode Summary: In this episode of MilesFromHerView, Kat sits down with Dr. Emily Gordon, a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in helping adolescents, young adults, and adults navigate body image struggles, eating disorders, and life transitions. Dr. Gordon offers valuable insights into the complexities of social media's impact on our self-perception, especially for women and young people. Together, Kat and Dr. Gordon discuss ways to foster a healthy relationship with social media, body image, and fitness in a world of comparison and curated realities.

Key Highlights:

• Social Media’s Influence on Body Image: Dr. Gordon discusses how social media can perpetuate unrealistic expectations by presenting carefully curated and edited images. These images often don’t reflect reality, leading to harmful comparisons.
• The Comparison Trap: Whether on social media, at the playground, or in professional spaces, comparison is a natural human tendency. Dr. Gordon emphasizes that it’s especially challenging for adolescents who are in a stage of developing their social identity.
• Understanding Developmental Stages: Kat and Dr. Gordon explore how adolescence is a time of shifting self-awareness, where children start to place more value on social validation. This makes them particularly vulnerable to social media pressures.
• Critical Thinking About Social Media Content: Dr. Gordon encourages listeners to question the source of social media content. Much of what we see is curated to sell products or promote ideals, often making us feel inadequate.
• Healthy Social Media Habits: Both Kat and Dr. Gordon suggest being mindful of how social media affects our mental health and to actively work on filtering content that doesn’t align with personal values or well-being.
• Shutting Down the “Shoulds”: Kat shares her own experience with feeling pressured by social media’s fitness culture, reminding listeners that everyone's journey is unique. Dr. Gordon agrees, encouraging listeners to reject the harmful “shoulds” and focus on what works for their individual goals.
