For the longest time, I second guessed everything in my business.

Should I post this?
Will people even care?
What if I get it wrong?
What if no one engages?

I’d sit on ideas for days, overthink every little detail, and end up doing nothing.

And when I did finally post or put myself out there, I’d obsess over the response.

If it did well, I felt great.

If it flopped, I took it personally.

It felt like I was constantly searching for permission to just show up and do what I knew I needed to do.

Until I made one shift that changed everything.

I used to think confidence came from knowing I was right.

That if I just had the perfect strategy, the perfect message, or enough proof that people wanted what I had to say, then I’d finally stop overthinking.

Confidence doesn’t come from having the right answer.

It comes from deciding that you’ll figure it out no matter what.

I realised that second guessing myself wasn’t actually about fear of failure.

It was about not trusting myself to handle whatever happened next.

If I posted and got no engagement… Then what?
If I made an offer and no one bought… Then what?
If someone disagreed with me… Then what?

I was treating every decision like it was life or death when, in reality, nothing was permanent.

And once I fully accepted that, everything changed.

The shift? Stop treating every move like a test and start treating it like a process.

Instead of thinking, "I need to get this right," start thinking, "I'm just gathering data."

This one mindset shift took all the pressure off.

I didn’t need every post to go viral, every launch to be a success, or every decision to be the right one.

I just needed to take action, see what happened, adjust, and keep moving.

When you stop attaching your self-worth to every result, you free yourself up to actually make progress.

And ironically, when you stop second guessing yourself and start showing up with conviction, people respond to that energy.

You become the person they trust, not because you're perfect, but because you’re certain.

If you’ve been stuck overthinking, here’s something to try…

Treat the next thing you post, launch, or email as an experiment.

No pressure, no expectation… Just data.

On that note… It’s time for coffee.

Enjoy your Sunday,

The Marketing Myth That’s Silently Killing Your Fitness Business👀...

If you're like most online fitness coaches, you've probably been told that the key to getting more clients is just to "provide value."

Post helpful content, share free tips, be consistent, and eventually, people will see you as an authority and want to work with you.

Sounds logical, right?

Except it doesn’t actually work that way.

Because if it did, you wouldn’t still be dealing with ghosted DMs, people asking for free advice but never buying, or leads who act interested but never commit.

There’s a reason this keeps happening, and it’s not because you need better content or more followers.

It’s because you’ve been told a marketing lie that’s keeping you stuck.

Most struggling coaches believe that authority is something you earn by proving yourself.

They think if they just give enough free value, people will start seeing them as the expert and naturally want to buy.

But that’s not how authority actually works.

The coaches who effortlessly attract high paying clients aren’t necessarily the smartest, the most experienced, or even the most knowledgeable.

They’re just the ones who have positioned themselves as the only logical choice.

Meanwhile, most coaches are out here competing on value giving away as much free help as possible, trying to prove they know their stuff, hoping that one day people will start taking them seriously.

Authority isn’t given, it’s taken.

If your audience sees you as just another fitness coach, it’s because your marketing makes you look like an option instead of the solution...
.. And as long as that’s the case, people will keep scrolling, keep price shopping, and keep choosing someone else.

If you want to go from being an option to the only choice, here’s one thing that will change everything...

Stop sounding like every other coach and start challenging what people believe.

Most coaches try to market by just educating.

They post workout tips, share nutrition advice, and hope that giving people more information will make them want to buy.

But information alone doesn’t sell, belief shifts do.

Marketing is change work.

Instead of teaching what to do, start showing people why what they’ve been doing is wrong.

When you challenge their existing beliefs, you create a gap between where they are and where they need to be.

And when you position yourself as the person who can bridge that gap, you instantly become the authority.

So before you post anything, ask yourself...

Does this just give people more information, or does it make them rethink what they thought they knew?

If it’s not shifting beliefs, it’s not building authority.

Hope you found this useful!

Have a great weekend!

That first day dieting feeling… 😂

08/11/2024

Most people want to lose weight fast, they focus on diets, calorie cuts, and punishing workouts to see the number on the scale drop as quickly as possible.

… And while it’s totally normal to want results, this approach often misses one critical element…

It doesn’t address the habits that led to weight gain in the first place.

If you only focus on the weight, you’re likely going to end up in the same place again and again.

That’s the classic yo-yo diet cycle we’ve all heard of (and many have experienced).

This is why people can lose weight and regain it over and over, sometimes ending up even heavier than when they started.

But there’s another way…

When you focus on changing the habits, the ones that led to weight gain, you’re not just making temporary changes. You’re building a foundation for a healthier life, and with it, lasting results.

Think of it this way…

Focus on weight loss, and you’re dealing with a symptom. You’ll do what it takes to get the number down, but without real change underneath.

Focus on habit change, and you’re addressing the root cause. You’re looking at what, how, and why you’re eating, moving, and living a certain way. You’re building a lifestyle that doesn’t rely on crash diets or deprivation.

So, where to start?

Identify the habits that may be holding you back. Are you stress-eating after work? Skipping meals and then overdoing it later? Finding it hard to prioritize yourself?

Commit to small sustainable changes. When you focus on building healthier habits one at a time, you’re far more likely to stick with them. The transformation may take longer, but it’s real, and it’s lasting.

The end goal?

A lifestyle you love that doesn’t rely on “dieting” at all.

And chances are, ten years from now, you’ll thank yourself for choosing this path.

Why the Scale Can Be Misleading…

Ever step on the scale after a weekend of indulging in good food, a few cocktails, and suddenly feel like all your progress is gone?

Weight fluctuations are normal and don’t always reflect body fat!

When you eat more food and drink alcohol, your body holds onto extra water for digestion and recovery.

That’s why you might see a temporary spike on the scale. But if you’ve maintained a calorie deficit throughout the week, that increase is mostly water, glycogen, and food volume—not fat.

I see this with most of my clients all the time…

They’ll have their highest weigh-ins on Monday and Tuesday, right after the weekend. But as they stick to their plan, those numbers start to drop again by the end of the week.

Why? Because their body is flushing out excess water, and digestion returns to normal.

Don’t let daily weigh-ins mess with your mindset!

The scale is just one tool, and if you rely only on it, you’ll get a false picture of your progress.

A better approach… Look at weekly averages instead.

You’ll see that progress is never a straight line but a journey of ups and downs.

Consistency over time wins every time.

So, if you’ve been on track all week, enjoy your weekend, reset on Monday, and watch that number naturally go back down.

Regardless of the number on the scale, you have a great personality.

Or maybe you don’t 😂
