Personal Health and Weight Loss Coaching For Women

10 Things…

IMG_6301

Body shaming + deprivation diets + punishing cardio workouts NEVER result in long-term success.

I promise you.

In my coaching practice, women come to me from all over the map and they always have at least one thing in common – a deep desire to get out of suffering.

This desire comes from a place of love.

I know that our past behaviors don’t always feel like love. But so many of us keep trying because we love ourselves enough to want to end the suffering. We believe – deep down – that there’s a pathway to health that isn’t quite so cruel and punishing.

But those slick weight loss ads and boot camp before and after photos keep sucking us back into a vicious cycle of repeating the same old…

…punish + give up + feel shame + start over.

Healing does not take place when you’re being mean.

One of the exercises I do with my coaching clients is to have them come up with a list of at least 10 things they like about themselves. 

And for most of my clients, this is hard to do – like hard x 5000.

When I tried this exercise myself for the first time, I got stuck at #6. And my brain went straight to…

…seriously Robyn, you can’t come up with 10 things you like about yourself. You’re a horrible person. A failure. A loser.

That inner critic showed up super fast.

I kept going and eventually came up with 10. But I had to dig deep.

What we like about ourselves is usually buried under piles + piles of stuff we don’t like.

Now here’s what was SO VERY fascinating about this exercise – not a single item on my list had to do with the appearance of my body.

Nada.

Go and create your own list. And when the committee in your head starts telling you that you’re not good enough or thin enough or you could use a little botox – read your list.

Because you are so much more than a number on a scale. 

Here’s my list. I’d love love LOVE to see yours Chickadee. Email it to me or post it on Facebook.

  1. I’m sensitive to other people’s feelings
  2. I’m resilient
  3. I’m a good cook
  4. I love to travel + experience new things
  5. I’m optimistic
  6. I’m curious about the world + love learning
  7. I’m quick to forgive
  8. I have a deep appreciation for nature
  9. I never give up on people – ever
  10. I’ve finally learned to embrace my imperfections
