NLP642 - How to Find Your Sweet Spot Bet...

Next Level Coaching
About this episode

On this solo episode of The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, I dive into the fine line between balance and discipline in your fitness and nutrition journey. While balance is essential for enjoying life—like saying yes to the occasional dessert or night out with friends—too much flexibility can derail fat-loss goals. I discuss why discipline is the foundation that allows you to enjoy balance guilt-free and how short-term sacrifices lead to long-term success. Tune in as I share actionable strategies to help you find harmony between enjoying life and staying committed to your goals, including setting non-negotiables, planning indulgences, and embracing the power of intentional choices.
