Resistance is the gap between where you are versus where you wanna be. The ability to master resistance to change is the key to stop self-sabotaging your weight loss. In this episode, I’m breaking it all down. Why you’re resistant to change (even though you say you want it!), why you self-sabotage, and how to stop doing it so that you can become Irresistible You and achieve your weight loss goals.
