You're telling yourself you're busy, overwhelmed, and stressed—and that language is literally programming your brain to stay stuck. In this raw episode recorded before heading to a best friend's wedding, Krysta dives deep into why your relationship with language is the secret weapon to finally breaking through plateaus (in fitness AND business).
In this episode we dive into:
• Why the words "busy" and "overwhelmed" are keeping you trapped in cycles you desperately want to break
• The identity shift that transforms how you approach everything from fat loss to building a business
• How to interrupt the thought patterns that are sabotaging your progress before you even realize they're happening
• The real reason you're not hitting your goals (hint: it's not about the macros)
The Current Reality - What Your Language Is Actually Creating
• You've convinced yourself that identifying as "busy" is just being honest, but you're actually reinforcing a reality you don't want
• The hidden way your brain seeks patterns of familiarity, even when they're keeping you stuck
• Why saying "I'm overwhelmed" literally confirms to your subconscious that you can't handle growth
• The specific moment when stress state language spirals into poor food choices and sabotages your progress
The Transformation Process - Rewiring Your Internal Narrative
• The pattern interrupt technique that stops self-sabotaging thoughts in their tracks (Krysta shares exactly how she uses this)
• Why telling yourself "I'm learning" instead of "I'm struggling" rewires your brain for success
• The conference revelation that shift from "thriving in chaos" to "I have capacity for this"
• How successful clients handle setbacks differently than those who stay stuck
The New Possibility - What Changes When You Change Your Story
• What happens when you replace "I'm really busy" with "I'm feeling productive and energized"
• The ripple effect of identity shifts on everything from sleep quality to macro adherence
• Why successful fat loss isn't about perfect macros—it's about who you decide to be each day
• The questions that reveal which stories are blocking your next level (and how to know if they're serving you)
This conversation reminds us that you literally are your ROI—in business, fitness, and life. Whether you're the high achiever drowning in people-pleasing or the entrepreneur stuck in "chaos mode," this episode offers the mindset shifts to stop being a victim of your own language and start creating the reality you actually want.
