I can’t wait for you to dive into today’s episode where we chat about how we can better serve ourselves by changing how we talk to ourselves and how we can’t expect to always be “perfect”! I’m a (recovering) perfectionist so this topic is super close to home & something I’m constantly working on.
Here’s what you can expect!
- What I’ve been working on: Aiming to eat before 7pm because that's when I notice my PCOS symptoms are most at bay. Over the weekend I got so upset & frustrated because it was after 7 when I ate & I turned into a monster over it!
- Perfect doesn’t exist. PROGRESS ALWAYS WINS. STRIVE FOR BETTER NOT PERFECT.
- Maybe you had a few extra drinks over thanksgiving or ate some stuff you’ve been avoiding. Maybe you skipped a workout.
- Whatever it is for YOU, we ALL go through it. The feeling of DAMN, I “SHOULD’VE” done this or I “SHOULDN'T” have done that!
- Maybe it’s TRUE you made CHOICES that weren’t EXACTLY in line with your health & hormone goals.
- BUT that doesn’t mean YOU SUCK & need to feel GUILTY about it! It means you have an OPPORTUNITY to GROW & get BETTER!
- If you hold yourself to an EXPECTATION that’s UNATTAINABLE, you’ll NEVER be PROUD of yourself for the SMALL GAINS that turn into BIG GAINS that you’re doing OVERALL.
- We need to look at everything as, am I BETTER than who I was yesterday? Am I taking steps in the RIGHT DIRECTION?
- When you’re changing your lifestyle it can be OVERWHELMING & if you don’t look at it as being BETTER than BEFORE, rather than being PERFECT, you’re missing out on an OPPORTUNITY to feel PROUD of yourself & give yourself the MOMENTUM to KEEP GOING!
- When we CELEBRATE 3 days of lemon water instead of feeling DEFEATED from the 4 days without it, it make us want to keep going!
- Be PROUD of YOURSELF for the changes you ARE MAKING!
- Acknowledge them & it’ll help you CONTINUE making progress. PROGRESS over PERFECTION. ALWAYS!
- I’m not saying to not hold yourself to a high standard and take care of yourself. BUT beating yourself up over it ISN;T DOING ANYTHING.
- Would you say the things you say to yourself to your friend, sister, daughter? Probably not!
- We need to treat ourselves & talk to ourselves internally like we would to the little girl inside of us
- You’re not a piece of shit because you didnt 100% stick to something. You made a choice. That doesn’t make you a failure.
- Do we always want to be getting better & making the best choices we can? Of course. But not at the cost of our mental well being.
