The truth is that I have found a lot of success in my life, but it was 100% NOT because of my planner. In fact, I usually tackle a planner for a good month and then it kind of fades away in the background.
I used to think this was a sign that I couldn’t “hack” it. That I was a quitter and give up easily. But now I know the truth.
Listen to the podcast and download the planner at www.gretchengegg.com/podcast to get the truth for yourself.
This week’s LIFE WORK: This is going to sound weird, but download the planner and just see what happens over a week. At the end of every day check off what was done. This is an indicator of what is important to you. Then look at how it naturally fits into your life. Maybe start with something that you do when you wake up and something you do when you go to bed that will naturally signal your body into a rhythm.

Visit www.gretchengegg.com/podcast to get your FREE 28 day planner. This year, let’s do things different! Let’s strike BEFORE the iron is hot and set ourselves up for the BEST holiday season yet. The best part? I’m not going to tell you what or how to eat! Love your food, eat your food and stay HEALTHY! How? It all begins with staying F.I.T. during the last quarter of the year.
Something I hear a lot in everyday life is people talking about what diet or fitness program they are currently involved in. Maybe I’m just attuned to it being a health & fitness gal, but it always seems like people are just jumping from thing to thing!!
Let’s talk about 3 Red Flags to watch for!
If you are looking for a program like this you are in LUCK. I have created The Mind Into MOtion (MiMo) Method and recently got my first round of coaches certified so we can offer this program more often and to more people. You can visit https://www.gretchengegg.com/mimo if you want a program the definitely works and has none of these red flags.
If you are a fitpro, life coach or health coach or someone who works with clients in this way then you might be more interested in becoming a Body Freedom Specialist and getting licensed to use the course materials along the way. You can visit https://www.gretchengegg.com/bfs to check it out and get on the list for our next cycle that starts in January. We only take 10 students at a time and its a 12 week process so don’t wait!
It isn’t a perfect science, but our goal shouldn’t be to be perfectly non-stressed. Our goal should be to prevent chronic distress in our bodies. And we can do this by framing these feelings MOST of the time and not beating ourselves up for the times we struggle to frame the feeling of stress.
Bottom line is that we were designed to have stressful events occur and use the hormones that flood our bloodstream to do things to make problems and situations better. The problem isn’t that we encounter stress, it is that we frame it poorly and live in that perception!

I GET IT! And I’ve been there! And the worst part is…you can’t break free. Even when you know it isn’t good…maybe even toxic… you STILL go back. Am I speaking your language? Want to know why?? The Science behind it?
