Eric Sierra travelled across the ocean for a soccer scholarship from Spain to America where he quickly realized he needed to look the part of the American players. Getting so frustrated with his lack of results he turned to working out at the quietest times in the gym because he was embarrassed to workout around his teammates and just felt defeated. He reached a point where he knew he had to make a change and find what really works for him otherwise he would lose his scholarship.
I think we've all had times in our life where we get frustrated because "it worked for them! Why not me?", but through this conversation we learn that you need to find your own path for the results to start to come and reach confidence through knowing what works for YOUR body.

Motivation is the biggest struggle for most people right?
Well, it’s because you’re searching for motivation in all the wrong places.
The word motivation comes from the word motive, and motive is WHY we’re doing what we’re doing. Not why other people are doing what they’re doing…
Maybe you come to my page for motivation, which is awesome, but it won’t last. Because my “why” is not your “why”.
YOU have to find what your motive is. Is it to climb bigger mountains? Is it to be able to keep up with your kids/future kids? Is it to perform better at work?
What is it?
Join me in this episode as we uncover what motivation really is and how to find it within yourself!
