Change your words, change your life - Mia’s story...💓
One of my client’s, let’s change her name to Mia, a gorgeous lady in her late 40s, came to me really struggling with fat loss and navigating perimenopause. For the last 10 years, Mia told herself, “I can’t lose weight. It’s just harder now.” She was a massive fan of the all or nothing approach and when she was on it, she was starving but when she was off her regime, she was eating way more than ever as she was so blinking hungry. Does this resonate at all? 😞
When Mia and I sat down to start working together I knew we had to work on her mindset around the “all or nothing” approach but also we needed to reframe the script of “I can’t, which was holding her back massively.
Instead of “I can’t,” we introduced “Yes, I can.”We shifted focus to some doable commitments and affirmations:
• “Yes, I can fuel my body with nourishing meals four days this week.”
• “Yes, I can move my body for 20–30 minutes, three times this week.”
• “Yes, I can rest when I need it and listen to my body’s signals.”
We also built a simple plan around perimenopause-aware habits: balanced meals with protein and fibre, steady hydration, sleep routines, stress management, and scalable workouts that respect her body and energy levels.💚
The results were fabulous. Mia didn’t just “try” to be healthier, she committed. Within a few months, Mia’s mindset shifted from “I can’t” to “Yes, I can,” and her actions followed. 🥳The body fat started decreasing, her clothes started fitting again and more importantly, she regained power, energy, and confidence. She felt fabulous inside and out.💃🏻
