Episode #175: Controlling Your Weight Loss Identity

Summary 

Let’s be honest—boredom doesn’t feel sexy or motivational… but it might just be the exact ingredient your future self is counting on.

In today’s episode, I’m coming to you straight from my car (yes, really!) after a StairMaster session that reminded me why I do what I do and why I used to resist this kind of work so hard. I’m talking all about how to embrace boredom without burnout, and how your ability to take consistent action might have less to do with willpower and more to do with your relationship with your three identities: your past self, your present self, and your future self.

If you’ve ever thought “I’m just not that kind of person,” this episode is for you.
