Ever feel like you know exactly what you should be doing—eating better, moving more, getting your workouts in—but you just can’t seem to actually get yourself to do them?
In today’s episode, I’m answering one of the most common questions I get: “What should I do when I don’t feel motivated?” We’ll unpack why motivation isn’t something you can rely on—and how to take action even when you’re not feeling it.
If you’ve ever struggled with getting started or staying consistent, this episode will give you the mindset shift you need to build momentum and get results—even when motivation is nowhere to be found.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
- Why motivation is the last thing you should wait for
- A powerful analogy that changes how you think about motivation and consistency
- The real key to building long-term consistency (hint: it’s not discipline)
- How to take action—even when you don’t feel like it
- A simple strategy to help you choose your next small step
Key Takeaways
- Motivation is a terrible place to start – It only shows up after you’ve already seen results.
- Results come from action—not feelings – Waiting to “feel ready” is what keeps most people stuck.
- Small wins build big momentum – Start with one non-negotiable habit you can improve this week.
- Progress > perfection – You don’t need to overhaul your life overnight. You just need to take the next step.
- The flywheel effect is real – Action leads to results, which leads to motivation, which fuels more action.
Whether you’re just getting started or you’ve hit a wall, this episode will help you stop waiting, start moving, and finally create the kind of consistency that makes fat loss feel simple.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
