I didn’t summit Kilimanjaro. And for a while, I felt like a failure.

But turning around taught me more about success, self-leadership, and mental fitness than reaching the top ever could.

This episode of Practice Your Positive Daily is for anyone who’s ever had to pivot, let go of the goal, or ask: What if I don’t finish what I started?

🎯 The truth about training hard and still falling short
🎯 The mindset shift that helped me walk away with power
🎯 Why zooming out beats pushing through (sometimes)

Real success isn’t always the summit. It’s the strength to choose your path on purpose.

Let’s talk about it!

Ever start strong with mindset work on Monday—then fall off by Thursday?
Same. This episode is what finally helped me stop quitting on myself when life got loud.

In today’s Practice Your Positive Daily, we’re talking about the difference between motivation and mental fitness—and how tiny, repeatable reps helped me build energy I could trust.

🎯 Why I used to fall off—even when I was doing “everything right”
🎯 What finally clicked (hint: it’s not willpower)
🎯 The cross-training system I use to reset fast
🎯 What mindset practice actually looks like for busy, real-life humans

3 Big Takeaways:
✅ You’re not wrong—you’re just under-trained
✅ Mindset is hygiene, not a hero moment
✅ One clean rep today is better than another “fresh start Monday”

Positive of the Day (POD):
Pick one tiny rep you can win. Do it. Repeat it tomorrow. Let that be enough.

🎙️ New episodes drop every Tuesday + Thursday (and they’re all under 10 minutes).

See you at practice.

Ever find yourself reaching for snacks, your phone, or yet another streaming episode—even when life is going pretty well? You're not alone.

In this episode of Practice Your Positive Daily, host Sass Schaeffer (keynote speaker, registered dietitian, and reformed midnight scroller) breaks down why those old urges still show up, what they’re really trying to tell us, and how to meet them with curiosity—not shame.

We’ll cover:

🎯 Why your nervous system craves comfort—even after the crisis is over
🎯 How to spot emotional hunger before it takes over
🎯 Tiny shifts that break the binge-scroll-repeat cycle

You’ll also get this episode’s Positive of the Day (POD): a simple question to pause the pattern and recenter your energy in real time.

Because healing doesn’t mean you never fall into old habits—it means you recognize them sooner and return faster.

💛 Let’s walk that part of you home.
