## Resource

What if the thing standing between you and your dream weight isn't willpower, discipline, or the right diet - but fear? In this episode, Laura breaks down Elizabeth Gilbert's Big Magic and applies it directly to losing weight for the last time. Perfectionism. Courage. Boredom. The letter to fear that will change the way you think about every excuse you've ever made. This isn't your typical weight loss episode. It's the one that reminds you why you started, and why you owe it to yourself to finish. One of our most downloaded episodes ever. We're bringing it back for summer because it's that good. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
