If u only show up when u feel good, life will keep knocking u out of rhythm.
Not because u don’t care.
But because u never decided what “enough” looks like on hard days.
That’s what episode 302 is about.
Because most women don’t actually struggle with consistency.
They struggle with an unrealistic baseline.
They unknowingly set “showing up” as:
perfect workouts. perfect eating. perfect energy. perfect weeks.
So when life interferes, it feels like failure.
And once it feels like failure, the brain says:
well… i already blew it. i’ll start over later.
That loop is what ends progress — not a lack of motivation.
In this episode, I teach the minimum baseline rule:
the floor you decide in advance so you never fall to zero.
We also talk about the deeper layer most people ignore — why u feel the way u feel:
bloat, brain fog, cravings, fatigue, cold hands and feet, nervous system overload.
And what actually helps without pressure:
walking as regulation, structure that removes decision fatigue, and identity cues that keep u in rhythm even when life gets loud.
