My last day with a personality
|
I'm back in Buenos Aires as of yesterday. Meaning I'm back to my very basic, mostly personality-less Spanish conversations. My bilingual friends often make this joke about speaking in your non-native language: How you only have the fraction of the personality that you do in your native language. If only people knew! Alas. I'll get to Tobey MaGuire Spider-Man 3 confidence in Spanish one day, too. In the meantime, I wanted to tell you about a Spanish video I watched on my flight. It was a joke video from Dreaming Spanish, one of the platforms I use to learn more vocab. I think it'll resonate.The premise was that the woman in the video was trying to take good care of herself, but she followed an influencer who told her that:
Conveniently and predictably, this influencer also had their own versions of these products available for purchase. Sadly, this "joke" video was what you're up against every day: Every time you think you're doing the right thing, you see messaging like this: messaging that makes you question everything you've been doing. It's frustrating, confusing, and discouraging. Maybe even to the point where you stop trying.Investing in 1:1 coaching eliminates this problem, yes, since I'll personally cut through the BS for you, and lay out a simple, effective plan that you can put your head down and follow. Then you'll get results like Amy: And feel supported like Em: Or learn what's actually best for you like Jess: But I want you to know that whether we're actively working together or not, my inbox is always open if you ever see something that makes you question what you've been doing. I mean it.I know it's a shitshow out there, and that's what I'm here to help you navigate. So is there anything that you've been wondering about? What can I clear up for you? Reply to this email and let me know. Sam P.S. In case you missed it, I recently published a short podcast on many hot topics including:
Plus some other things I'm sure you've seen posts about. |

Earlier this week, I dropped the season finale of Transformation Talks: Reaching Your Goals No Matter Your Schedule, Staying on Track While Traveling, & Tangible Mindfulness Strategies with Josh Grimm A mouthful, yes. But for just 28 minutes, it's a pretty loaded episode. Like myself, Josh works with particularly busy clients with demanding careers, packed social calendars, and a lot of travel obligations. So we focused on: How Josh designs plans for his busiest clients (1:56) Why it's wise...
Wake up early. Around 5AM since I write better when it's dark, and nobody's up. Laptop open right away, phone nowhere to be seen. Client check-ins—all via email for better organization and communication quality. Wi-Fi off right after. A short piece of plain text content, based on that day's conversations with clients, or something going on in my life that could be helpful to you. Shared as a newsletter email, Facebook post, or anywhere else the words matter most—no thumbnails, hooks, fancy...
Here are one of my client's last four bodyweight averages: 226.71 225.55 (-1.16) 223.76 (-1.79) 225.4 (+1.79) Quick note before we go any further: The ONLY scale data worth looking at is your weekly averages over 2-3+ week periods. Anything less than that is too heavily impacted by carbs, sodium, meal timing, gut content, workouts, water, and other things that have nothing to do what we're actually trying to monitor: Changes in fat, specifically. When we talked about this Week 4 increase...
