Christmas decorations are making their debut, and the smell of fresh baked gingerbread cookies is in the air.  Sticking to a healthy eating plan and regular exercise routine can be a battle any day of the year.  During the holidays, however, festive feasts, willpower-impairing spirits, and tempting chocolate truffles team up to challenge even the most resolute health nut. 

Unfortunately, the fear of putting on a few pounds, the stress of making too many ‘food choices’, or the feeling of guilt after indulging in too many shortbread cookies can overshadow holiday joy.  tress and guilt around food choices is counterproductive to keeping healthy and enjoying the holidays.

Fortunately, you CAN look and feel your best during the holidays! Follow these tips to thrive during the holidays: to fully enjoy the holiday season without ringing in the New Year feeling like the jolly man himself. 

In this episode of the Fit and Vibrant You Podcast I discuss simple strategies and mindshift changes so you go from merely surviving the holidays to THRIVING!  

Fit and vibrant women don't choose between enjoying the holiday and staying on track with their choices. They have both. Let's do something different this holiday.

Ladies! You need to listen to Bev's story.

After struggling with weight and diabetes for years (she could lose the weight, but whenever she reached her goal, she would gain it right back again), Bev has cracked the code on how to get and KEEP her results, AND enjoy the process.

Listen in she shares how she...

✨ Lost 20 pounds ended the self-sabotage cycle and is EXCITED to keep going
✨ Drastically reduced her medication for Type 2 Diabetes
✨ Went from being a sugar addict to easily saying no to sweets without feeling deprived
✨ Decided that she was WORTH investing in herself (how her weight loss journey has positively impacted all aspects of her life)

*Update* Bev just emailed me that while on vacation, she had lost another 2 pounds 🙌

When you’re ready to take the next step, here’s how I can help.

Hello friends!

I am THRILLED to welcome Robin Wisner onto the Fit + Vibrant You Podcast for some real talk on:

💕 Self sabotage: what it is, why we do it, and most importantly, how to break the cycle
💕 How to work through our feelings so that they don't run our life
💕 Why motivation is fleeting, and how to create it.

You're going to LOVE this episode!

Robin is a certified John Maxwell life coach, speaker, and trainer specializing in helping women ditch the exhaustion of the hamster-wheel lifestyle and create simplified harmony in their life. She is the creator of the LightHer Way Wellness Program, a mindset life transformation program for women, and the host of the LightHer Way Podcast.

Most women who join Robin's coaching program struggle with an all-or-nothing mindset, lack of healthy boundaries, and self-sabotage - often centered around body image.  Through the LightHer Way program, they learn how to renew their mindset and align body, mind, and spirit to form the foundation of lasting transformation and JOY in all areas of life. 

Born and raised in Silicon Valley, Robin has an extensive background in training, technology, and project management. She also served in the US Air Force, where she met and married her husband nearly 30 years ago! They live in Virginia and have two adult children, one precious grandchild, and two fur babies. Her favorite motto is, "What would you DARE to do if you knew you couldn't fail?"

You asked "what are some of your top book recommendations?' and I listened. 

Join me today as I share my favourite books I've read this year.

I also share a few practices that have helped me read more, and get more out of what I'm reading.

I did a similar episode around the same time last year (check out episode 214 of the podcast) and perhaps it'll become an annual episode. This time of year you might be spending more time reading indoors with a cup of tea and blanket, or perhaps you're looking for gifts for others, or yourself. 

Here’s my list!

Finish by Jon Acuff
Soundtracks by Jon Acuff
Chasing Cupcakes by Elizabeth Benton 
Tools for the Trenches by Elizabeth Benton Thompson
The Gift by Edith Edgar
The Mountain Is You by Brianna Wiest
Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl

A while back I posted in our Fit + VIbrant Women Community Facebook group (www.tanjashaw.com/join)

"What advice would you give RIGHT NOW to someone who is just about to start their journey to become more fit and healthy? What has helped YOU personally, to become more successful in your own life?"

And the responses were SOLID GOLD. 

Join me as I share some of the incredible lessons and words of wisdom that have helped other women transform their relationship with food.

Charlene had struggled with her weight since she was 20. She had tried Noom, Weight Watchers, Herbalife, Intermittent Fasting, prescription programs.

She had never learned how to lose the weight, keep it off, and feel good.

She always knew that the missing piece of the puzzle was her mindset, and when she found my 5 Day Challenge, she was so excited to find something that worked on the mindset.

Since starting in the 5 Day Challenge, and then the Fit + Vibrant 6 Week Transformation, Charlene:

💕 Speaks kindly to herself and no longer has the self-sabotaging thoughts
💕 Is working on letting go of perfectionism
💕 Is free from the obsession about food, and is naturally making better choices

I believe every woman deserves to feel good in their body and to get back to living their life. That’s why I’ve put together this mini-training to walk you through my 3 step process. It has helped 100s of women over 50 lose 20+ pounds without the obsession.

It’s all revealed inside a FREE TRAINING that you can attend right now.

Hello friend!

"Enjoy the journey".

This is not the first time you've heard that quote. And it makes a great Facebook post, but how do you enjoy the journey when you're feeling defeated and unenergized.

Ooo... I'm so glad you're here!

Press play as we shift from 'enjoying the journey' to bringing joy to the journey. I walk you through simple mindset shifts and strategies to stay consistent with your goals, and to fall in love with the journey along the way.
