In This Episode

On today's episode, we’re exploring why the word BUT is so powerful, how it’s stopping you from being happy, and what you can do about it.

There are some pretty obvious jokes about big “BUTs” on this one, but don’t let that distract you from how important this topic is!

My friend, the only thing I remember from college is this simple concept about language that I learned in Philosophy 101:  Everything after the “but” is the true focus of the sentence.

And this applies to you SO much more than you think!  Because you?  Have some hidden “buts” in your life that are holding you back from getting what you want.

During this week’s episode of the Fitness Matters podcast, we’re exploring why the word BUT is so powerful, how it’s stopping you from being happy, and what you can do about it.

Because of course there’s a way around the BIG “BUT.”

TELL ME:  What are the big BUTs in your life?  AND how would you like to think about them instead?

How To Stop Being So Hard On Yourself

You say it practically every day: “I just need to stop being so hard on myself.” And while that sounds like a noble goal, it’s not exactly actionable, is it? Which means you stay stuck in the same spiral of overthinking, perfectionism, and self-criticism. In this...
