Episode #150: Discipline vs Deprivation

Summary 

Have you ever found yourself waiting for the perfect moment of motivation to take action on your goals—whether it’s weight loss, wellness, or personal growth? In this episode, I’m sharing an analogy between a struggling mother in a rainy parking lot and the way we try (and fail) to reason with the more primitive, impulse-driven part of our brains. What if you didn’t need full motivation or permission from your inner “toddler” to follow through on your commitments? If you’re ready to stop the inner tug-of-war and take consistent action toward your goals, this episode is for you!
