Here’s the truth: rest is essential. But so is discipline. And if you’ve ever found yourself asking, “Am I caring for myself right now, or am I avoiding the work?”—this episode is for you.
In this episode, I share the exact mindset shifts and self-check questions I use (and teach my clients) to know the difference between a rest day that’s moving you forward and an excuse that’s keeping you stuck.
You’ll learn how to listen to your body with confidence, how to spot the signs of true recovery vs. sabotage, and how to release the guilt so you can finally trust yourself again.
Because your dream body and food freedom don’t come from punishing yourself or letting yourself off the hook—they come from learning when to push and when to pause.
