Today we're diving into a mindset shift that completely changed the way I approach my workouts—and helped me stop skipping them, even on the busiest or hardest days. If you've ever told yourself, “I don't have time,” “I'm too tired,” or “It's not worth it unless I go all in,”—this episode is going to shift everything for you. Because you don't need more motivation. You don't need more guilt. You just need a new way to see movement—one rooted in self-respect, not self-punishment. What I discuss: The all-or-nothing trap that keeps women stuck and inconsistent How I redefined what “counts” as a workout (and why that changed everything) Why a short walk or 15-minute lift is enough The science behind why even 5 minutes of movement boosts your mood and brain function What actually builds consistency—and why it has nothing to do with discipline The exact question I ask myself when I don't “feel like it” If you loved this episode, you'll also love… https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/3-reasons-why-you-cant-stay-consistent-what-to-do-about-it If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

  Today we're diving into something I know so many of you have struggled with—because I have too—and that's how to count your macros without it taking over your entire life. If you've ever felt like counting is too stressful, too rigid, or just too much to keep up with long-term… this episode is for you. Because here's the truth: counting your macros should be a tool—not a trap. And if it's leaving you burned out, anxious, or stuck in all-or-nothing mode? You're doing way more work than you need to. What I discuss: Why perfection isn't the goal—and how aiming for “close enough” actually gets you better results How stress over counting can backfire by increasing cortisol (and what that does to your body) The simple habit I use to reduce decision fatigue and make counting easier Why focusing on protein first is a game-changer How to navigate “off” days without guilt, shame, or starting over What it looks like to loosen up on tracking in busy seasons—without losing your progress Whether you're brand new to macro counting or just want to make it feel more sustainable, this episode is going to help you build a better, healthier relationship with the process.

Today we are talking about something that I know so many of us struggle with—whether we say it out loud or not. And that is: how we feel about ourselves when we see a photo of ourselves that we don't love. Maybe it's a group picture someone tags you in. Maybe it's a candid shot your partner took. Maybe it's even a selfie you took yourself—and instead of seeing the fun memory, the beautiful moment, or the experience you were having, your brain zooms in on that one thing you hate about how you look. “Ugh, my arms look huge.” “Why do I look so puffy?” “I didn't realize my legs looked like that.” If you've ever had a moment where a photo stole your joy… this episode is for you.   What I discuss:  What a “self-discrepancy moment” is Some factors that can significantly change how you look in pictures What to do when the self-discrepancy moment hits 6 actionable steps to positively react   And if you loved today's episode, I know you'll also love… Episode 338: To the Woman Obsessing About What Her Body Looks Like…https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/to-the-woman-obsessing-about-what-her-body-looks-like    If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

Hey, hey beautiful human! Today we're talking about something that does not get talked about enough in the fitness space… but it's one of the most important pieces of your results. And that is: recovery. I know recovery isn't as flashy or exciting as the workouts themselves. It's easy to get caught up in the mindset of “more is better”—more workouts, more intensity, more sweat. But the truth? Recovery is where the magic actually happens. Your progress doesn't happen in the workout itself—it happens in the rebuilding process after. So today we're breaking down: What recovery really is (and what it isn't) Why it's so essential for building muscle, burning fat, and staying consistent long-term The science behind how your body repairs and rebuilds What effective recovery actually looks like—and the most common mistakes I see women make Some simple action steps you can start today to improve your recovery and feel better in your body If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

Today we are talking about something I know so many of us feel on a day to day basis – and that's feeling like there's just never enough time in the day. Am I right or am I right? Between work, workouts, meals, family, errands, and a to-do list that feels like it never ends… it can feel like there's no possible way to get it all done. And listen—I've been there, too. There have absolutely been seasons where I've told myself, “If I just had a few more hours in my day, I could finally stay on top of everything.” But here's what I've learned: it's not always about how much time we have—it's about how we're using the time we do have. What I discuss: Why feeling overwhelmed by time often comes down to how we're structuring our days The simple but powerful difference between being busy and being productive How to identify where your time is actually going And most importantly—practical ideas and tips to be more mindful and intentional with your time each day If you loved this episode, you'll also love… Episode 475: Easy Ways to Add Activity to Your Busy Schedule https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/easy-ways-to-add-activity-to-your-busy-schedule   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

“Julie, how do I know if I actually need to adjust my macros based on my new activity levels?” I get it. It can feel confusing to know when a change is actually needed and when you might just be overthinking it. The last thing I want is for you to feel like you're constantly chasing numbers or tweaking your macros every time you happen to have a more active week. So in this episode, we are going to break down exactly why adjusting your macros even matters in the first place—and just as importantly, when it does not make sense to adjust them. Because there is a big difference between occasional bursts of activity and true, consistent changes in your movement patterns that require more support through your nutrition. What I discuss: When it is actually time to adjust your macros Why under-fueling is one of the fastest ways to stall your progress The 4 most important steps to follow for adjusting your macros If you loved this episode, you will also love: Episode 243: https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/what-are-the-four-phases-of-macro-counting   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

Today's episode is inspired by a question I got from a member of the Movement with Julie community. And I love this question because I know so many of you have probably wondered the exact same thing—especially if you're newer to strength training. Someone asked me whether they should increase weight or reps because they don't always feel sore after working out. Such a good question—and we're breaking it all down today. Because there's a really common belief out there that if you're not sore after your workout, it didn't work. But here's the truth: Soreness does not equal success.   What I discuss: 1. Soreness is Triggered by Novelty, Not Necessarily Effectiveness 2. Soreness Reflects Inflammation, Not Muscle Growth 3. Being Sore Doesn't Mean You're Targeting the Right Muscle Effectively 4. The Body Adapts Quickly (And That's a Good Thing!) 5. Chasing Soreness Can Lead to Overtraining, Not Progress 6. The Importance of Progressive Overload   Also, don't forget to listen to:    Episode 13: How Much Weight Should I be Lifting? https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/how-much-weight-should-i-be-lifting    And episode 68: Getting Off Your Fitness Plateau with Progressive Overload https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/getting-off-your-fitness-plateau-with-progressive-overload    If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

Hey friend! We need to talk about something that might be sabotaging your progress—and I'm not talking about your workouts or your nutrition. I'm talking about how you talk to yourself.  We all have that inner voice, right? And for so many of us, that voice is harsh. It's critical. It says things like: “You should be further along.” “Why can't you be more disciplined?” “You're so lazy. You messed up again.” And the thing is—we think that voice is helping. We think it's keeping us in check, keeping us accountable, making sure we don't slip. But the truth? That voice might be the very thing holding you back from your goals. So in today's episode, we're diving into what the research says about self-criticism versus self-compassion. I'm going to walk you through how to practice self-reflection without spiraling into shame, and I'll give you actual scripts you can use to reframe negative self-talk the moment it shows up. What I Discuss: 1. Why beating yourself up doesn't make you more disciplined, but more discouraged. 2. What really is Self-compassion. 3. How to practice accountability without judgment by asking curious, kind questions. 4. How to change your self-talk in the moment using simple, powerful reframes.   If you loved this episode, you will also love: Episode 480: The Power of Small Efforts in Your Fitness Journey https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/the-power-of-small-efforts-in-your-fitness-journey    If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

If you've ever looked around and thought, “How am I this far behind?”—this episode is for you, sister. Whether it's in fitness, motherhood, your career, relationships, or money… that sinking feeling of falling behind is so common, but also completely misleading.   In this heartfelt episode, I'm breaking down the truth behind that “I should be further along” mindset, and offering you real, practical perspective shifts to help you move forward with more clarity, peace, and power. You'll walk away feeling lighter, more grounded, and deeply reminded that your timeline is still right on time.   What I Discuss:   Why feeling behind often means you actually care The myth of a “universal timeline” and how to stop comparing yours How to reframe the inner dialogue of “I should be further along” Using your desire for more as fuel—not shame The power of moving just one inch forward each day Why your current season is sacred, even if it looks messy   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

It's not just a “nice to have”—it's the foundation of everything we do in strength training.  In this episode, I discuss: Why form matters so much How poor form triggers injury Signs your form might be off The most common dumbbell form mistakes I see How to fix those common mistakes so you can keep making progress and feeling good while you do it If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

In this episode of Embrace your Real, I'm sharing 3 things I've personally been focusing on lately that honestly have nothing to do with fitness or nutrition—but they've helped me show up stronger, more focused, and more energized in my workouts. Because here's the truth: sometimes the key to building the body you want isn't found in more workouts or more discipline... it's in building a life that supports your goals. From the inside out. Because the truth is, sometimes when you hit a plateau, the answer isn't to push harder. It's not to add more workouts, tighten your macros, or stress about your steps. Sometimes, the thing that unlocks progress is actually the least expected strategy: Cultivating more peace in your life.   What I discuss:  Protecting my energy Savoring the little moments Being intentional with what I consume   If you loved this episode, I know you'll also love episode 436: 6 Simple Ways to Reduce Stress Daily   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

Today, we are diving into a topic I haven't talked about much lately: Body Image. I know this is a topic that we need to continue to come back to time and time again as SO many of us struggle with it. And honestly, for many of us, it's something we're going to constantly have to work on and that's okay! So if you have been looking in the mirror and felt less than, if you've been picking apart your body instead of appreciating it, or if you've been thinking, “I'll feel better when I lose five pounds,” this episode is for YOU. What I discuss: The mirror is not reality – Your perception is distorted by emotions. AND you need to stop body checking. Rewrite the narrative of your “flaws” – Your body is not an object, it's an experience. Social media is warping your perception – Unfollow anything that makes you feel “less than.” Stop using your body as a before and after – You are so much more than a number on a scale. Your body is the least interesting thing about you – Who you ARE is what people truly love. If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

You know that feeling when you scroll through fitness advice online and suddenly feel like you're doing everything wrong? One person says you have to chug a protein shake right after your workout, another says you must eat carbs before training or your workout is useless, and then there's that whole debate about whether you should eat less the day after going over your macros. It's a LOT. But today, we're breaking it all down and keeping it real. Because the truth is—meal timing isn't as rigid as social media makes it seem. In this episode, we're diving into three BIG questions I know so many of you have: What I discuss: You do not need to slam protein after your workout. It's about how much protein you eat daily, not about how much you eat after working out. You do not need to fuel before workouts if you're not hungry. Listen to your body and give it what it needs.  If you go over your macros, don't make it up for it the next day, just try to hit your macros tomorrow.  If you don't know what your macros should be, I got you, sister.

Hey, hey! If you're a new mom, I know how much you're carrying right now. The exhaustion, the endless to-do list, the constant feeling that no matter what you do, it's never enough. But I need you to know this: prioritizing your body is not selfish—it's survival. It's not about “getting your body back” or bouncing back—it's about feeling good in your body now, so you can show up as the strongest, happiest version of yourself. So today, we're tackling five mindset shifts to overcome the guilt of prioritizing movement as a new mom.  What I discuss: Your baby needs a mom who feels good—not just a mom who's physically present 24/7. You are not losing time by working out—you're buying it back with more energy, patience, and ease. Movement doesn't have to be alone time—you can integrate it into your day, guilt-free. Movement is not a reward—it's a basic need. Your body deserves it. You don't have to do it perfectly. Showing up imperfectly is still progress.

Wake up at 5 AM – It's hard at first, but it gets easier and ensures you get it done. Stack it with other tasks – Find ways to combine movement with daily life. Use your lunch break – If possible, work out midday when kids are at school. Move during kids' activities – Walk laps, do bodyweight exercises, and use whatever space you have.

You know I'm all about keeping fitness realistic and attainable—because life can get busy, right? Sometimes it feels impossible to block out 45 solid minutes for a workout. But guess what? You don't have to! Today, we're diving into the power of exercise snacks. These bite-sized bursts of movement can fit into your busiest days and still give you amazing results. If you're ready to learn how a little movement here and there can transform your body, your mood, and your life, this episode is for you! What I discuss:  Exercise snacks are short bursts of movement, 5 to 10 minutes at a time, spread throughout your day. These mini sessions keep your metabolism active, burning more calories and preventing energy crashes from long periods of sitting. Moving even briefly after meals helps stabilize blood sugar, preventing sharp spikes and crashes that lead to hunger and fat storage. Frequent movement improves focus and reduces brain fog, helping you stay productive without feeling drained. Endorphin boosts from exercise snacks lift your mood and lower stress throughout the day, instead of relying on a single long workout. Taking 10 minutes to move your body every hour can add up to a full workout at the end of the day.  It's all about consistency, not perfection—every bit of movement counts toward feeling stronger, more energized, and confident in your body.

We've been conditioned to think that weight loss is the goal. That if we just see the number on the scale go down, we'll magically get the lean, toned body we want. But that's not how it works. Weight loss and body composition are not the same thing. Losing weight just means losing weight. It doesn't tell you if that weight is coming from fat or muscle, and it definitely doesn't guarantee you'll look or feel the way you want.   So today, I'm breaking down one of the biggest weight loss myths that we need to UNALIVE.  Yes, we need this myth to disappear because it is holding you back! So let's bust these once and for all so you can focus on what actually works and finally build the body you want.  What I discuss: Fat loss is NOT about eating as little as possible and working out more. A small, sustainable calorie deficit works better than an extreme cut. our workouts stay the same—3-5 strength training sessions per week is all you need. You should NEVER live in fat loss mode. Cycle in and out for long-term results. Reverse dieting is essential to keep your metabolism strong.   If you loved this episode, you'll also love: Episode 46: Why You Should Consider a Reverse Diet https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/why-you-should-consider-a-reverse-diet-the-only-diet-i-suppor   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

Okay, let's talk about those “awards” we're chasing—the ones that don't exist but somehow control so much of what we do, how we feel, and how we show up in life. Let me give you a few examples. Ever caught yourself secretly competing for the: “No mistakes were made” award? Or the “Most beautiful” award? How about “Skinniest”? “Lived up to all expectations”? “Never said no”? “Never asked for help”? Oh, and let's not forget the big one: “Liked by everyone.” And last but not least, the “Didn't need rest” award. Are you cringing yet? Because SAME. The crazy part is, none of these awards are real. Literally none of these exist. No one is handing us trophies for being exhausted, perfect, or never making mistakes – but still, we're running ourselves into the ground trying to win them. So, today, we're unpacking why we're chasing these invisible awards, how they're stealing our joy, and what we can do to let go of the pressure and just be.

It's the first week of February and it's time for us to take a look at those new years resolutions. Did you know 80% of people fail to stick with their new year's resolutions within the first month? That's why we need to talk about this!    If you're feeling like you already fell off track with your goals for 2025… first of all, take a deep breath. You are NOT alone. And second—let's reframe this, because falling off track doesn't mean failure. If you're thinking, Ugh, I blew it. I'll try again next year, I need you to stop right there. Your goals don't have an expiration date, and just because you lost momentum doesn't mean you have to quit. And that's why in today's episode of Embrace Your Real, I want to share five powerful mindset shifts that will help you shake off the guilt, get back on track, and move forward with confidence.  What I discuss:  1. Falling Off Track is Normal—Stop Making It Mean Something About You 2. Focus on Progress, Not Perfection 3. Reevaluate what's realistic For You… 4. Make It Stupidly Simple 5.

Hey, Mama! First of all, let me say this: you are incredible. Your body just created a whole human being! Whether it's your first baby or your fourth, you're in a season of big changes—physically, emotionally, and mentally.   And while it might feel tempting to dive into the whole “bounce back” culture, I'm here to remind you that your body deserves so much more than that. This is your time to heal, replenish, and thrive. So let's talk about how you can use nutrition to feel your best during this postpartum chapter!   What I discuss:  Don't even think about dieting.  Also, don't put pressure on yourself to count your macros Use this time of life to eat intuitively — your body needs a lot so don't hold back from giving it what it's asking for.  If you do count one macro, let it be protein. Try to build all your means around protein, aiming to get 20-30g per meal to keep you more energized and satiated.  After protein, fill your diet with lots of health fats and fiber.  Make sure you're incorporating iron and vitamin-c rich foods into your daily food intake.  HYDRATE.
