If you’ve ever tried to portion-control, eat “healthy,” or follow the rules of dieting but still felt stuck, this episode will make everything click. This week I’m talking with Amy (Broccoli Mom 🥦), who lost 66 pounds and has kept it off for five years! For nearly two decades she was trapped in the cycle of eating as little as possible, getting starving, binging, and feeling like something was wrong with her. Her story shows what really keeps women stuck and why willpower is never the answer. 💪🏻 We dig into the habits that secretly caused weight gain, why raw vegan and low-calorie diets left her hungrier than ever, and how misunderstanding calorie density created years of frustration. When she finally learned how weight loss actually works, everything changed. 🎙️ In this episode you’ll learn why restriction backfires, how calorie density affects fullness, and what finally made weight loss sustainable for someone who naturally loves to eat. ➡️ If you’re ready to do whatever is required to succeed for your health goals, then book a free consult with our team to talk about making that a reality. https://fitwithplants.com/schedule-your-call-6 🎉 Join my FREE Lean Kickstarter Challenge 👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 🥦 Broccoli Mum ➔ https://www.youtube.com/@broccoli_mum 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week.

The crazy thing is, dopamine isn’t just about pleasure… it’s about motivation. It’s what drives you to repeat certain behaviors, even the ones that don’t serve you. In this episode, you’ll learn how to understand dopamine so you can start working with your brain instead of constantly battling against it. We’ll talk about why processed food feels so hard to give up, how to make consistency easier, and what it really takes to build habits that last.

If you’ve been stuck, doing “everything right” but still not seeing change, this episode will shift how you see your entire weight loss journey. You don’t need a new diet or more motivation, you need clarity about the direction you’re heading. Because every choice you make is a tiny vote for who you’re becoming. In this episode I'll break down the four stages that shape lasting transformation: 🌱 Ignorance — when you don’t know why nothing’s working 💡 Truth — understanding how physics, energy, and calories actually work 💭 Acceptance — letting go of resistance and wishing it were easier ⚡️ Action — learning to steer your habits with intention instead of emotion You’ll learn how to stop arguing with reality, face the truth with compassion, and finally create a system that aligns your daily choices with your long-term goals. Because progress doesn’t happen from one big decision. It comes from hundreds of small directional choices that shape who you are becoming.

The only way you go from who you are today to who you want to be is through evidence. Most of us want to skip ahead. We think we can just decide to be someone new, leap across the ravine, and instantly become the person with the outcome we want. But the truth? No one leaps. They build a bridge — one tiny, consistent plank at a time. This episode dives into why identity isn’t about “faking it till you make it,” and why it’s completely normal — even warranted — to feel like you don’t deserve the outcome yet. If you already fully owned the identity, you’d already have the result. Change isn’t about forcing belief; it’s about taking the steps that slowly prove to yourself who you are becoming. We’ll unpack: Why your brain resists change and labels new identities as “lies” How to use James Clear’s framework (make habits Obvious, Attractive, Easy, Rewarding) to build consistency Why integrity shows up most powerfully in failure, not success What radical personal responsibility looks like when the shame hits and you want to hide Your thoughts aren’t facts. Feeling like a failure doesn’t disqualify you — it’s simply part of the process. You don’t need to know exactly who you want to be yet; it’s enough to know you don’t want to stay stuck. Because becoming the person you want to be isn’t about leaping. It’s about building the bridge.

If you’ve ever felt stuck on your weight loss journey and wondered why you just can’t stay consistent, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I’m diving into the sneaky limiting beliefs that hold us back, and how to start rewriting them so they actually work for you instead of against you.

I sat down with Tracy, who lost 20 pounds in just 12 weeks — after years of yo-yo dieting, guilt, and feeling stuck. What changed? Not just the food… but her identity. She built trust in herself. She stopped fearing the scale. She let go of guilt and started living in alignment with her goals. This conversation dives deep into what happens when you stop trying to be perfect, start using a proven system, and finally get the accountability that actually works.

Discipline is about doing what you don’t want to do because you know it’s the right. The person you ARE and who you become through doing hard things paradoxically makes you happier. Victim hood doesn’t serve us, and I’ve had that tested over the past 4 months. Once again I’m coming back to delusional optimism. Wild gratitude and the WORK of being content, regardless of suffering. A mindset of empowerment in the face of pain is a deliberate act of rebellion, so don’t give up. You got this. Keep going.

If you feel stuck in a cycle like you’re trying, but progress just isn’t happening fast enough, you’re not alone. It’s not that you’re not capable.

Ever feel like life is just too much ? Like you're drowning in emotions, trapped in a whirlwind of inconsistency, and the only thing that sounds remotely manageable… is lying in bed, crying, and eating chocolate? In this episode, I sat down with one of our amazing one-on-one Lean with Plants coaches, Abbie, to talk about how to manage those intense emotions that derail our progress, routines, sabotage our habits, and make us feel like total failures. We’re getting real about what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, and more importantly, what to actually do about it. We’re talking overwhelm. We’re talking sabotage. We’re talking about the real stuff and how to take your power back. I’ve already started using some of these tools in my own life, and I’m blown away by how simple (and powerful) they are. If you’re someone who struggles with motivation, emotional highs and lows, or the shame spiral that comes with inconsistency, then this episode if for you!!! Let’s break the cycle. Let’s get unstuck.

In order to live an exceptional life, you have to be the exception. This episode is all about leaning into the discomfort of being different, embracing awkwardness, and finding power in being misunderstood. Because let’s face it—if you’re trying to fit in, you’re probably shrinking parts of yourself to do it. We’ll talk about what it really means to stand out, to survive the cringy moments, and to build confidence by realizing you don’t need anyone’s approval. There are no rules—just concepts that help us grow. Expect raw, unfiltered conversations about resilience, personal choice, and the messy process of defining success on your own terms. No balance required. No need to be understood. Just you, showing up as you are.

Achieving anything is about going from known, what you have currently, to unknown which is what you COULD hypothetically have. Aka potential. Potential is always precipitated by an unknown action. An action you don’t have evidence for. If you are on a trajectory of success it’s because you have evidence that you take the KIND of action required to succeed. You will succeed because you have a habit of biting down on the actions of success, of emptying the bag of success and at the bottom is the gold.

Shockingly 99% of people will never lose weight and keep it off long term. (Not a real stat, but you get the picture, you’ve probably experienced it) I used to think everyone was capable of change, but I’ve since realised that not everyone has what it takes. Even if they want it. There are 6 things that that you MUST have if you want to be in the 1% of people that actually reach their goals. If you have them, you’ll succeed… if not, you simply don’t have what it takes. The good news? Everyone can change these things TODAY. You just have to identify them and then take the first step.

In this episode, we’re diving into the one thing that completely changed my approach to weight loss—understanding a calorie deficit. For years, I chased quick fixes like juice cleanses, low-carb diets, and raw food diets and even going hungry, thinking they held the secret to fat loss. Spoiler alert: they didn’t. Once I realized the science behind a calorie deficit, everything clicked. This episode unpacks what a calorie deficit really is, why it’s the foundation of every successful fat-loss strategy, and how calorie density can make this process simple (and sustainable) without calorie counting. I'll give you some practical tips to cut through the diet industry confusion, the role of non-starchy veggies, and why ditching things like oil can be a game-changer.

Marnie shares her inspiring journey of shedding 23 lbs and finding true food freedom after menopause. Two years ago, a glimpse in a store mirror left her shocked—she didn’t recognize the reflection staring back. Despite being a long-time dedicated whole-food, plant-based diet, menopause brought unexpected weight gain, leaving her feeling out of touch with her own body. But rather than succumbing to negative self-talk, Marnie leaned into learning, growth, and mindset shifts. Through self-compassion and a new approach to eating, she discovered how to feel full while losing weight and maintaining her health. Embracing a “fail-forward” attitude, she’s replaced judgment with curiosity and transformed her relationship with food and herself. Join us as Marnie talks about the small, proud steps she took, the wins she now looks for, and how self-acceptance became her most powerful tool. 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 📆 Get a FREE 1:1 Weight Loss Consult to see how we can help you smash those goals https://link.localbestgyms.com/widget/form/pOZDvwcJQoWbQ5KPeiGv 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week.

Understanding the trade-offs in weight loss is key to staying on track and reaching your goals. Often, the focus is on what to do, but we forget to consider what we need to not do.

I’ll share my personal approach to balancing these trade-offs, like simplifying meals to save time for family, and I’ll also discuss common challenges many of us face.

Imagine you’re faced with two paths to success: one is hard and full of obstacles, while the other is straightforward and effective. The secret to success isn’t about working harder; it’s about working smarter. Successful people don’t create more obstacles for themselves, they find ways to remove them. In this episode, I’ll use the inversion method to explain how figuring out what will guarantee failure and avoiding those issues is often much simpler than trying to discover the perfect path to success. Instead of getting overwhelmed by all the endless things you need to do to become successful, focus on identifying what would guarantee your failure, then simply, do the opposite. It’s natural to feel like you’re fighting a losing battle and that progress is impossible. It’s easy to think that giving up is the only option. But true success isn’t about never facing challenges; it’s about persevering, taking responsibility, and making adjustments to simplify your path so you can achieve your goals with greater ease. 📚 Grab your copy of the Calorie Density chart here, by signing up to my FREE mini course to kickstart your weight loss 👇https://kickstarter.fitwithplants.com/products/3086bdba-221a-4ab6-992e-8f93f077363f/categories/4ded6ac5-7986-4e47-b4d7-7453d90db29e/posts/e2395f15-0a7e-4633-b758-74b9a47c3a89 The podcast i talk about in the episode https://podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/modern-wisdom/id1347973549?i=1000666600695 👇 If you’re ready to do whatever is required to succeed for your health goals, then book a free consult with our team to talk about making that a reality. https://fitwithplants.com/schedule-your-call-6 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week.

Fat loss doesn’t have to be mystical, it’s actually a simple formula, with consistent inputs that have consistent outputs (eat veggies and get into a calorie deficit = lose fat) The hard part is what behavioural inputs you need to ACTUALLY do it. Not just go to the gym each week, but HOW to make yourself do it when you just want to lie on the couch and watch Netflix. That’s where habits come in… and using the 4 stages of habit building to make positive behaviours easy and obvious, and negative ones difficult and painful. In this episode, I break down how to do exactly that, so that you don’t have to hope and pray you reach your goals, you are guaranteed to.

If you want to guarantee failure, then these are the 5 things to do (or keep doing) Sometimes it’s easier to simply avoid the things that will guarantee failure, and do the opposite, rather than try to come up with what success looks like!! This concept comes from the great Charlie Munger (this entire episode was inspired by his work) and is all about inverting success. Be warned. This episode is spicy. I go hard on core beliefs that are probably holding you back. There are 3 that most people hold onto that will stop them from achieving their goals, and they are not fun to admit are actually holding us back. If you like results, being challenged, and making progress… then give this one a listen.

The goal isn’t to do easy things! We’re doing that now. The goal is to become the kind of person where hard things are easy things for YOU. The power of successful people is they know where to tweak things to make them FEEL easier, more satisfying, more fun, or slip into those behaviours better than other people. Unsuccessful people think things SHOULD feel easier, but then MAKE them harder.Successful people think things SHOULD feel hard, but then MAKE them easier. Once we know the path to success is to conquer hard things, we need to get a clear expectation of what ‘hard’ looks like, and then make them as simple, fun, and easy as possible so we can do them forever.

We’re going to talk about how to really make change. Most people say they want it, but won’t actually create systems that force a change in behaviour. As James Clear from the book Atomic Habits states, “You rise and fall to the level of your systems.” Your systems are just the structures, environment and routines that shape your behaviour, so the cool thing is as soon as we use the 8 principles of system building, we can create systems that make it inevitable to succeed, even in light of failures.

Motivation is the catalyst then ongoing drive to work towards a goal. Most of us have seen ‘motivational content’ millions of times without really taking action. We get stuck when things feel difficult and frustrated (then give up) when we don’t see enough progress.

What I'm teaching my daughters about body image and food... lots of nuggets, and some controversial opinions, I believe this is going to be helpful whether you're a parent or not... Here’s a sneak peek of what to expect: I DON'T hold beauty as a value metric. I don't call my kids pretty or cute. I don't call myself beautiful or believe I need to I don't think stretch marks or loose skin or rolls are beautiful or that it matters. I don't think every woman has to be beautiful because beauty is just wrapping paper. I'm trying hard to come against a beauty-obsessed culture by saying screw it rather than expanding my view of what 'beauty' means.

No one is coming to save you. No one is going to pick up a fork and put broccoli in your mouth or say no your mother in law for you. Change is HARD, so we MUST be the hero of our own story and face the fight head on if we want to succeed in weight loss, habit change, fitness, or really anything. Unfortunately we’ve been condition to be passive victims… mere side characters rather than the protagonist we were destined to be. All this can change when we adopt a heroes mindset and know how to keep moving forward even when challenges inevitably come. (There’s no good story without some conflict!) In this episode go over what to expect, how to embrace struggle, and ultimate transform into the hero that gets the prize. The hero you are destined to be.

My life get’s really darn hard. There are so many days I don’t feel like I can cope and yet somehow I’ve maintained 40lbs of weight loss, while running a business, being a busy mama and having a husband with a disability. 10 years ago I did NOT have the toolkit to make that happen and it’s been trial and error and many books on behavioural science later that I have a toolkit of 6 habits/mindsets that keep me going on my worst days. They are: I know that 100% effort isn’t required to see results, but SOME consistent effort is always needed. Consistent minimal effort beats intensity EVERY time. You don’t need to sprint, but you do need to put 1 foot in front of the other. Ask yourself what that looks like everyday. It changes. I don’t pendulum swing. Your circumstances aren’t binary, behaviour doesn’t need to be either. I’m looking for the best I can do even on my worst days I set minimum targets rather than big goals. I have a level of external support and accountability even when I’m feeling like I can’t do things. I make my life easier so I’m more likely to follow through on good behaviour.

At the beginning of the year, I said my goal for this year was to be mediocre, however even though I believe there are times when mediocrity can be helpful, it can also be a hinderance. Success requires effort and perseverance, for there is no gain without pain. Hard work serves as the key that unlocks the door to triumph. The things truly worth having in life are not obtained effortlessly; they demand dedication and resilience. Weight loss is one of those things, it doesn't come easy, it takes time, dedication and consistency to see great results. Success is not a mere gift bestowed upon us; it is earned through relentless commitment and determination. The more we invest in our endeavors, the more satisfying the victory becomes. The journey towards success is marked by a path paved with hard work, guiding us towards our aspirations. It's important to remember that if success were easily attainable, everyone would have it. Yet, it is the challenges we face and overcome that make it truly meaningful. 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 📆 Get a FREE 1:1 Weight Loss Consult to see how we can help you smash those goals https://fitwithplants.com/schedule-your-call-6 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week.

Take a leap, embrace the unknown, and ask yourself, "What's the worst that could happen if I don't try a new approach to weight loss? What have I got to lose by going all in? Inaction and fear means there's a real cost to our overall health and mindset. This week I dive into Callie's story, which is what inspired me to do this episode. It's important to remember the immediate benefits of consistent action, even without immediate results. Failure often stems from a lack of action, so remove barriers, confront obstacles, take risks, and do the thing anyway. Shift your focus from outcomes to the process of growth, let go of results, practice persistence, and understand that overnight success follows years of perceived failure. Measure progress, explore multiple indicators of success, and seek motivation through repetition, accountability, making action easier, rewarding progress, and fostering a community that normalizes the behaviors you want to cultivate. Shift your focus from outcomes to the process of growth. Release your attachment to results. Reflect on the person you could become by consistently doing 'the thing', even without immediate results. Will you be better off than before? It's all about practice and staying in the game. 🌟 Remember, overnight success often follows years of perceived failure. Measure your progress, choose growth. Keep track of your achievements. Look beyond a single measure of success. Find ways to stay motivated. Discover the processes that drive consistent action Embrace repetition and routine, establishing structured habits within your daily life. Seek accountability to stay on track and ensure follow-through on your commitments. Make action feel effortless by simplifying tasks and finding ways to streamline your efforts. Celebrate your progress through rewards and acknowledgments. Surround yourself with a supportive community that normalizes the behaviors you aspire to cultivate.

Weight loss is often surrounded by a cloud of mystery and perceived complexity. There are many fad diets promoting quick weight loss and so much conflicting information online, it's hard to know what is true and what isn't. The diet industry thrives on exploiting people's desires to lose weight quickly and effortlessly, often resorting to misleading claims. Many people believe that there must be some secret formula to shedding pounds and getting in shape. They tend to think of themselves as unique individuals who require personalized advice or special attention in order to achieve their weight loss goals. Additionally, there is a prevalent belief that our metabolisms are somehow flawed or broken, making it even more difficult to lose weight as we age. This leads to the idea that we need specific diets tailored to our body types or blood types. However, the truth is far simpler. We are not as special as we think when it comes to weight loss. The fundamental principle remains the same for everyone: we need to create a calorie deficit. Our metabolisms don't actually break; the main difference lies in the fact that we tend to lead more sedentary lifestyles, resulting in fewer calories burned. Ageing also plays a role in weight gain, mainly due to decreased physical activity levels. Lifestyle factors also influence weight gain, but the basic strategy for weight loss remains unchanged. Weight loss is not a rapid process in most cases. Instead, a healthy and sustainable rate is around 1-2 pounds per week. Any additional weight loss beyond this can be considered a bonus, but it's important to focus on the non-scale victories and leading measures of progress such as long term habit change rather than solely fixating on the number on the scale. The foundation of successful weight loss lies in creating a calorie deficit. While our starting points may vary there is no need for complex and specific diets based on body type or blood. By understanding the true nature of weight loss, we can implement effective strategies and achieve our goals, regardless of our individual circumstances. 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 📆 Get a FREE 1:1 Weight Loss Consult to see how we can help you smash those goals https://fitwithplants.com/schedule-your-call-6 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week.

Should you Incorporate cheat meals into your diet? Indulging in meals that deviate from your usual eating routine raises the question of whether it is a beneficial practice. The concept of "cheating" on your diet often carries negative connotations, suggesting that you are engaging in something forbidden or naughty. It can lead you to make choices that conflict with your long-term objectives. But what exactly is the ultimate goal? When faced with choices, what is the best option for you in the present moment? For me, personally, I don't believe in the concept of cheat meals or days. Experience has taught me that what starts as a cheat day can easily spiral into a cheat week. If you find yourself yearning for a break from your regular diet, it might be an indication that the current approach is not sustainable in the first place. The idea of cheat days fails to acknowledge that success can manifest differently in various situations. So, what should you do when perfection seems unattainable? Instead of an all-or-nothing mindset, strive for a "next best" mentality. Focus on doing something better than what you have previously done, rather than succumbing to extreme patterns. Rather than swinging between extremes, consider incorporating pauses into your routine. This means allowing yourself occasional indulgences while maintaining overall balance. Here are some practical examples of how to enhance your indulgent experiences: Elevating Takeout Meals: Make them more filling. Incorporate additional vegetables. Opt for options with lower calorie density. Alternate Choices: Pair your pizza with a side of broccoli. Enjoy a burger accompanied by homemade potato chips. When visiting a place like Starbucks or Disney World, opt for a baked potato as a lighter option. Comfort Meals: Indulge in dishes like curry or creamy pasta that provide a sense of comfort. These meals may be slightly heavier, but they can still be enjoyed in moderation. Treats and Desserts: Transform these moments into special occasions. Take your time savoring each bite. Choose single-serve portions to maintain control and avoid overindulgence. In summary, the concept of cheat meals can be reimagined as an opportunity to explore indulgent choices in a mindful manner. By incorporating these strategies, you can strike a balance between enjoying occasional treats and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Weight gain and loss are responses to changes in calorie intake, which are not mystical occurrences but rather predictable outcomes. These changes can be influenced by internal and external factors related to our environment and behavior. Understanding these factors is attainable. To achieve desired changes in weight, it is important to modify both internal and external aspects of your current environment. The traditional approach, which relies solely on willpower and the belief that enduring pain will lead to different results, has proven ineffective in the past. Instead, adopt a new approach: Make decisions that increase the likelihood of progress towards your goal, focusing on the direction rather than seeking a single right answer. Implement internal systems that facilitate behavioral changes. Establish external systems that promote desired behaviors. Recognize that disciplined individuals are not inherently more disciplined but rather create environments that support discipline.. Consider the contents of a bodybuilder's pantry or a skateboarder's trunk as examples as to what your own pantry looks like. I'll also be discussing my personal strategies, which involves: Holding myself accountable for my actions. Discovering enjoyable ways to incorporate exercise into my routine. Creating commitment devices to reinforce my goals. Modifying my external environment to enhance the likelihood of success.

Winners, often exhibit certain mindset traits and thinking patterns that contribute to their success. It's so important to cultivate a winners mindset because when it comes to losing weight you need to look past obstacles and see the opportunity for change so you can take action. Winners believe in their ability to overcome obstacles. They view setbacks and failures as learning opportunities rather than roadblocks. Instead of dwelling on problems, they actively seek solutions and stay optimistic about their chances of success. In this episode I'll go over the main ways I think winners think differently: They make an Intentional effort be positive They acknowledge and share wins and progress They express what they are grateful for They are disciplined about not being a victim in how they speak They look for ways to solve problems They recognise that emotions are not an absolute truth They are data driven not emotionally drive. 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 📆 Get a FREE 1:1 Weight Loss Consult to see how we can help you smash those goals https://fitwithplants.com/schedule-your-call-6 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week

Consistency is harder for overachievers because they go from 100 miles an hour to zero very quickly as they rely on their willpower rather than creating habits. If we set ambitious goals that we can't reach, we often lose heart and abandon them altogether. However, the "1% better daily" principle advocates for making small daily improvements that can eventually result in substantial progress. By concentrating on making consistent 1% improvements every day, individuals who are overachievers can establish sustainable habits that will eventually help them get to their long term goals. Although minor changes may appear insignificant initially, they can result in significant progress and growth over time. By continuously making incremental improvements, those who aim for excellence can develop momentum and accomplish their objectives in a sustainable manner. James Clear, author of "Atomic Habits," suggests that relying solely on willpower is not a sustainable way to build habits. Instead, he recommends implementing a system of small, consistent actions that gradually become part of one's routine. For overachievers, this may mean setting lower expectations and focusing on the process rather than the outcome. By creating a habit of consistent, small actions, overachievers can avoid burnout and achieve their goals in a sustainable way. 📆 Get a FREE 1:1 Weight Loss Consult to see how we can help you smash those goals👇 https://fitwithplants.com/schedule-your-call-6 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week.

We’ll talk about the benefits of losing weight in a healthy way, which includes gaining confidence and self-discipline, having more energy, and being equipped to deal with the stresses and difficulties of life. We also dive into practical ways to deal with a crisis, such as eliminating distractions and decision fatigue, accepting discomfort, saying "no" more often, and prioritizing sleep. This is all about shifting from a victim mentality to a victor mentality, taking ownership for what you want, and committing to small but regular actions to achieve your goals.

In this episode, we’ll discuss how artificial intelligence (AI) is set to change the weight loss industry forever. We explore the potential uses of AI in coaching, customising meal plans and workout routines, and making complex information more accessible to the public that has previously relied on industry ‘guru’s’ to translate. I predicts that as AI becomes more prevalent in diagnosis, health professions such as nutritionists, dieticians, and doctors will become less valued. Instead, accountability and behavioural tools will become the most important parts of success. (They already are!!) The biggest factor to success is implementation. Action beats knowledge every day. While AI will help with some of this and change how we implement, human connection, accountability and community will still continue to be a huge part of what makes habit change ‘sticky’ so that you ACTUALLY do it long term.

When it comes to tracking your progress on a weight loss journey, the number on the scales can be both encouraging and demoralizing. While it's natural to want to see the number go down as you make progress, it's important to remember that there are many factors that can influence the number on the scale in the short term. In this episode I'll discuss why it's always important to focus on fat loss rather than just the number on the scales as there are many reasons why your weight can fluctuate such as the amount of food in your system, glycogen, water weight, and muscle weight can all influence the number in the short term. By paying attention to these factors and reprogramming your mind to see the scales as a tool for interpret data rather a measure of your own self worth and success, you can then start tracking progress your in a holistic way and get a more accurate picture of your progress on your weight loss journey. 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 🤙 Find me on: My Website ➔ https://www.chelseamae.com Instagram ➔ https://www.instagram.com/chelseamaecullen/ Youtube ➔ https://www.youtube.com/ChelseaMae Subscribe and see you next week.

In this podcast, I'll be sharing with you how systems and environment can change our behavior, and why even when we want it most, we still can’t seem to change! I'll be discussing 5 subtle changes in our systems that can greatly affect our behavior and prevent consistency, and sharing tips and strategies on how to combat these changes in order to develop unshakeable default behaviors that lead to long-term habit change, and ultimately, weight loss!! We’re constantly being pulled towards the path of least resistance and actively in battle with our current habits and environment. I'll be sharing my own struggles and what I have learned on how to create good habits, combat current ones, and understand the influences that affect them. Knowledge is power, so it’s vital we understand WHY we fail before creating strategies that ACTUALLY work. If we want long term change, we’ve got to create systems that are easy, obvious, attractive, and satisfying, so we can actually stick to them!

Hey and Happy New Year! If you've been a long time listener of this podcast you will know I love James Clear and his book 'Atomic Habits'. It's been my bible of habit change for such a long time now. James Clear suggests that the most effective way to create lasting change and form new habits is to shift our identity and focus on becoming the type of person who embodies the habits we want to cultivate, as apposed to focusing on outcomes. Lately I've realized I have been extremely focused on outcome goals and whilst thinking about my new year goals I've decided that I need to be OK with being mediocre, so I can do less but achieve more. In this episode I'll be discussing 5 reasons mediocrity can help combat perfectionism and why setting mediocre goals for myself is helping me to fight all or nothing thinking and behavior and help me achieve success.

This week I'm going to discuss how to create a system that helps develop discipline in your food choices. I’ll be explaining the 6 key things you can start today to help you develop more discipline and consistency over time. Self-discipline is the ability to push yourself forward, stay motivated, and take action, regardless of how you're feeling, physically or emotionally. Instead of thinking 'I am the problem’ or ‘ I have no self control' you need to start working on your system. Your system is SO important to your long term success.

Lets get into myth busting! There's so much information out there when it comes to health and wellness that it can get very confusing for us to understand. Many views are polarising, blown out of proportion, misunderstood and yet so many studies seem to back up every single opinion so you end up not being sure what to believe. This week I will be breaking down and discussing the 5 most common health and wellness myths that I hear on a daily basis when it comes to weight loss that I feel need putting to bed once and for all. Some of these myths include, that you need large amounts of protein, it's much harder to lose weight as you age, carbohydrates make you fat, fat makes you fat and willpower is the most important factor for weight loss.

This week we're talking about mindset, particularly challenging your thoughts by using positive affirmations and mantras. I'll dive deep in to how our default thought patterns and internal dialogue can sometimes be very negative. I hope this episode will give you some hope to believe change is possible, because even though we may not have control over the thoughts our brains are telling us, we can have 100% control and influence on how we respond them.

If you want to lose weight, you may be wondering how much you should be exercising and what exercises you need to do to lose weight. Losing weight is all about being in calorie deficit, so it's understandable you think you need to exercise to lose weight as you'll burn more calories right? Whilst there is some truth to that it's more complex than you might think. There's a lot to unpack this week, so in this episode I'll be discussing what effect exercise has on your ability to lose weight, what exercises to do and most importantly when is the right time to include it.

This week I thought I'd talk you about how to get comfortable, with being uncomfortable. Embracing discomfort definitely won't be pleasant but it's necessary if you want to experience personal growth. The thing is If you always stay in your comfort zone and avoid situations where you might fail or be uncomfortable, then there is little way for you to grow as an individual. A quote which I love and I have hanging on my wall is " fail faster" because it reminds me everyday that instead of striving to be perfect, to fail fast and often because you can achieve so much more by just getting started, giving it ago, being okay with failure and being uncomfortable.

In this episode I share 4 key ways I keep going when my goals feel so far away! I talk a lot about not being perfect and why it's important to fail faster but this week I want to get a little more personal. The crux of it is; We don’t want to put our lives on hold until we reach a certain goal, because life is happening NOW, and the future is never a given. It's so important to focus on the present and put values, before beauty. I'll be talking about why this matters so much to me and how I create meaning in today. You can work towards being an improved version of yourself, but ultimately to keep yourself going it boils down to having contentment, joy and appreciation for today. We have to start living and be grateful for today before it’s too late.

Kezia lost 50 lbs (and counting) while spending less time in the kitchen and making her system easy. Here’s what she said: “in January when the doors were open for LWP I wasn't quite ready to jump in, I felt like I had all of the knowledge and understanding and I could do it on my own. So I decided to give myself some time to try it alone. Alas, I was able to eat the right things but then weekends would come and my consistency would fly out the window. So here I am signed up for LWP this round and already just investing the money in it is giving me the push I need to practice my consistency and reach my goals!” (July 2021) Since then she’s focused on layering habits like her home habit, then weekends, then eating out. It’s crazy what can happen with small, consistent action and learning to trust yourself again. 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 📚 Get your FREE ebook!

Making faster progress isn’t about stricter diets and more discipline, it’s about taking consistent action steps that move you closer to your goal. The problem is we get tired, bored, lose motivation or give up, or (insert excuse here) and progress stalls or goes out the window. This isn’t a flaw with YOU, it’s a human character trait that keeps us alive, we’re kinda designed to choose the path of least resistance to conserve energy and constantly innovate… BUT that’s not super helpful when we need to say no to oreos and YES to broccoli. 😭🥦 The good news is instead of working against it, we can hack motivation by using tools like the next tiny step method to KEEP moving forward, even in our worst moments. In this episode I share exactly how to use the method to find your next tiny step, commit to when you’ll implement it, and use momentum to make your next actions easier and more likely. Yah!! This method was developed by Richard Ralston who is a mentor, friend, and amazing human, so check out more about him below 👇 https://richardralston.com/ A lot of these concepts were also inspired by James Clear and Greg Mckeown and you can find the links to their books below👇 Essentialism - Greg Mckeown https://www.amazon.com/Essentialism-Disciplined-Pursuit-Greg-McKeown/dp/0804137382 Atomic Habits - James Clear https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habits We use this method in our Progress PODS in Lean with Plants and it’s helped our members see phenomenal results.

I struggled with my weight for almost 10 years. I was miserable and unhappy and after many failed diets, too many rules and too much restriction, I thought it was time to do something that was sustainable, easy, obvious and attractive! That's when I finally found a solution that worked for me. I was able to lose 40lbs and become the leanest I have ever been if my life even after having 2 kids! The method I'm going to be talking about is tried and tested across my course Lean with Plants where hundreds of women have managed to lose weight just by using the same systems. Learning about how weight loss works is a small piece of the puzzle. You may know what you should be doing, but it's implementing what you know that's the hardest part! The missing piece for a lot of women is building a strong habit foundation on a consistent basis that help you become the kind of person who is able to accomplish your weight loss goals. Do you struggle to stay on track even though you know what to eat? Do you feel you have an all or nothing mindset and once you fail, you revert back to old eating habits? In this episode I'm going to discuss why habits are so important, and how to use them to build systems that make your weight loss easy, obvious and attractive so you can become more consistent and finally start shedding those pounds! Remember this is not a bout willpower, it's not about someone else being better at it than you. It's about finding a system that works for for you! You are not broken and you are certainly not a failure. There are many different ways of implementing new systems and habits that can work for you. Listen to this episode so I can give you the kickstart you need to finally have the food freedom that I now have. I also take some questions at the end! I hope the Q&A is super helpful for you!

I started a challenge with some friends where I would commit to running 5km a day for 90 consecutive days. It's now day 77 of the challenge and I’ve managed to run 5km every single day for 77 days and counting. In this episode, I discuss what I’ve learnt about habit formation and the many behavioural hacks this challenge has taught me along the way. All of which, have made it possible for me to continue running for 70+ days, even when I was struggling and just wanted to give up. There are 4 important steps to how our brain forms habits; the cue, the craving, the response and the reward, all of which I will explain in this episode and how our behaviour is shaped by them. When you understand how habits are formed and you start to see the power of using behavioural tools to hack your habits, you will think about behaviour in a completely different way. I'm hoping you can starting using these ideas and hacks so you can begin designing a system that works for you. A system that enables you to follow through with doing those things that may seem too far out of your reach, because you'll equipped with the knowledge and tools to make it much easier for you to achieve success. I HIGHLY recommend reading the book Atomic Habits by James Clear to understand more about how you can hack your habits through behavioural change. 📚 Join my FREE Kickstarter Challenge👇 https://www.chelseamae.com/kickstarter-about 📚 Get your FREE ebook!

With everything that's happening in the world right now, it can be very difficult to focus on the things that we used to see as 'important' but may now may seem 'less important'. The thing is, when you put all your focus on issues that are outside of your control, your overall influence on those issues ends up shrinking, as you become less focused on the things that also actually matter to you. I want to say, it's okay to not be okay sometimes and worry about things beyond our control because we are human with emotions, but we all know that when anxiety and stress they take over and influence our ability to cope, work, eat healthy then we need to have a strategy to deal with it. So in this episode, I'll be discussing a great way to help you cope with whats happening in the world and how to not let outside factors (such as stress, war, injustice) derail your progress, by explaining the 3 key things that have helped me deal with stressful times and still maintain a high level of consistency.

In this episode, we'll talk about how to use sequencing to make habits EASIER simply by changing the sequence of your actions. Studies have shown that about 45% of our actions are not because of conscious thought but are habitual. Habits are extremely powerful because they are our brain's way of putting repeatable tasks on autopilot. We want the result, the weight loss, the consistency, the ability to keep eating broccoli when you want bagels… so if you can put those good habits on autopilot you make changes STICK. The KEY here is making actions as EASY and EFFORTLESS as possible so that you can DO them often enough to form a habit. Sometimes all that takes is changing the order in which you do things. This podcast was inspired by the podcast episode, Sequencing on the Hacking your ADHD podcast.

One of the biggest consistency blockers is time. The answer to most problems with consistency is ‘meal prep’ but what about when you don’t feel like you have time to do it? If consistency hinges on being able to make your own meals, are you destined to fail if you just don’t have time? The answer is no, we’re going to talk about why in this episode. Rather than constantly failing in any system that doesn't work for you, the key is finding ways to make consistency easier and more effortless. This is about removing obstacles rather than adding steps. This podcast was inspired by the book Effortless by Greg Mckeown.

If you're not making continuous progress you won't get to your goals. You might start strong, but then end up throwing in the towel. You'll probably have a great week or MAYBE a month, but will be back where you started or WORSE six months from now. This is why the Japanese philosophy of Kaizen is so so powerful. Kaizen is all about small incremental progress that will ACTUALLY get you to your goal with time because you are always improving. Changing my mindset to base success on improvement, not perfection is what has allowed me to lose 40 pounds and actually keep them off. This is truly life-changing!

There is a massive misconception about the role of exercise in losing weight. Most Americans believe that lack of exercise rather than diet is the biggest contribution to the obesity epidemic. In reality, exercise plays a minor role in weight loss for the simple fact that it accounts for SO LITTLE of our calorie burn.

In this episode, I simplify the science of weight loss and explain how you can be eating exceptionally healthy and still not lose weight. It’s vital to have a solid grasp on this information to understand HOW to start losing weight and WHY different diets work, so if you’re new to the podcast I recommend starting here. I also share my story of struggling with disordered eating, food restriction, binge eating, massive weight fluctuations and never being able to get to a healthy lean weight or MAINTAIN it, all while being frustrated and confused as I was eating such a healthy plant-based diet. I explain what a calorie deficit is and how necessary it is for weight loss.
