There is a system to my madness with today's episode. Stick with me because we’re diving into learning something new or returning to a skill you haven’t touched in a while—and the mental gymnastics that come with it. For me, that’s been yoga. But don’t worry, I’m not about to bore you with yoga poses and breathing techniques. This is about how jumping back into something familiar can feel like stepping into brand-new territory. I’m sharing the five key lessons I learned after getting back on the yoga mat.
This episode is for you if you're ready to improve your communication skills and simplify your approach to fitness and life by focusing on the basics and setting realistic expectations.
In this episode, we cover:
- Why being crystal clear about your needs can save you from headaches, resentment, and misunderstandings.
- How solid communication skills aren't just for your fitness routine—they're crucial for your friendships, relationships, and, yep, marriages.
- The traps of overcomplicating everything and why keeping it simple is the smartest move you can make.
- Mastering the basics—whether in yoga, fitness, or business—is where the magic happens.
- How to build real resilience and motivation by setting goals you can actually hit.
Look, life and fitness can sometimes feel like you're trying to juggle flaming swords while balancing on a tightrope. Trying to nail complicated routines or push yourself too hard when you're already running on fumes? Yeah, that’s a one-way ticket to burnout. It’s time to strip it back, focus on what really matters, and get clear about what you need to make lasting changes.
So, how are you getting back to basics in your fitness and life to see better results? Let’s talk about it—slide into my DMs on Instagram and share your tips!
