Summary

Give me 20 minutes to show you that you're motivated. We think of weight loss as discipline and willpower. But every action (every skipped workout, every frustrating failed time you overeat, every time you diet) has a motivation behind it. Some are obvious: wanting to look better. Others are subtle: control, comfort, identity, even love. Motivation works in layers. And unless you understand those layers, you're fighting the wrong battle. This episode explores why every behaviour has a story, and why finding the real reason behind your choices is important. To book a one-hour personalised click here.
