About this episode
For years, we've been told that discipline means pushing harder, eating cleaner, and saying no to anything that doesn't fit the plan. But what if that version of discipline, the one rooted in restriction, guilt, and grind culture, is actually the reason you're burning out and losing motivation? In this episode, I'm breaking down what self-discipline really means and how to rebuild it in a way that feels supportive instead of punishing. You'll learn how to recognize when your discipline is coming from fear instead of alignment, how to reconnect with self-trust, and how to make consistency feel good again. Here's what you'll learn: How the fitness world turned discipline into grind culture The difference between fear-based and aligned discipline How to tell when your motivation is rooted in control instead of connection Simple mindset shifts to make discipline feel empowering Why rest, flexibility, and joy all belong in your fitness routine How to rebuild discipline around self-trust instead of perfection If you've been stuck in the all-or-nothing mindset, this episode will help you redefine discipline so it finally feels sustainable.
