Shownotes

In this episode, I have a fascinating conversation with Sherry Shaban, a fitness expert and podcast host who specializes in helping women improve their relationship with food.

She shares her personal journey of overcoming a severe spinal injury and finding her passion for health and fitness. Sherry emphasizes the importance of adopting an athletic mindset, which focuses on the process rather than solely the physical results. We encourage you to prioritize self-care habits that nourish both the body and overall well-being.

One key takeaway from our discussion is the idea of creating a system for self-care instead of focusing solely on specific goals. By establishing a system that is adaptable, repeatable, and sustainable, individuals can achieve their goals as a natural byproduct. It's important to add new positive habits gradually before letting go of old negative ones, creating a positive feedback loop for sustainable change.
