    2025/07/28

    Send us a text

    Ever feel like you know exactly what to do—but still can’t stay consistent with your workouts, nutrition, or self-care?

    This episode is for the high-achieving woman who’s tired of thinking her problem is time management or motivation—when really, it’s deeper than that.

    In this powerful solo episode, certified life coach and personal trainer Anne Jones shares the real reasons ambitious women struggle to stay consistent—and it’s not because they’re lazy or unmotivated. It’s because of perfectionism, nervous system urgency, and a deep-rooted fear of letting others down.

    Drawing on a raw coaching conversation with one of her VIP clients, Anne breaks down:

    • Why your “consistency” problem is actually a self-trust problem
    • How urgency hijacks your nervous system and blocks follow-through
    • What to do when overthinking and people-pleasing keep you stuck
    • How to finally show up for yourself—without guilt or drama

    If you’ve ever said “I just need more discipline,” but you’re doing all the things for everyone but you—this episode will shift everything.

  • The Power of Honest Yeses & Nos: How Boundaries Build Trust, Ease, and Connection
    2025/06/17

    Send us a text

    In this raw, unscripted episode of The Muscles & Mindset Revolution Podcast, we explore the life-changing impact of being honest with your yeses and nos.

    I share personal stories—from soul-sister friendships to coaching conversations—that reveal how direct communication and clear boundaries create deep trust in your relationships. Whether it’s your partner, your team, your parents, or your best friend, knowing when to say “no” (without guilt) and “yes” (with full alignment) is one of the most powerful self-leadership skills you can build.


    You’ll learn how to:

    • Use honesty as a trust-building tool (not a conflict starter)
    • Let go of emotional gymnastics and people-pleasing
    • Recognize how saying “yes” when you mean “no” dilutes your identity
    • Navigate the discomfort when others don’t like your boundaries
    • Prioritize ease, peace, and real connection—without losing yourself

    If you’ve ever felt like a “puddle of yes,” this episode is your reminder that protecting your peace is never selfish—it’s sacred.
