How to handle OTHER PEOPLE'S OPINIONS to your lifestyle change? (This is a SASSY one!)

Published: March 5, 2021, 8:30 a.m.

Today we are getting sassy and chatting about how to deal with other people’s reactions/opinions to your lifestyle change (or really to anything in life). I hope this episode empowers you to stand in your confidence and do what's best for YOU!

 

I cannot wait to hear what you think about today’s episode! It’s a sassy one for sure but one that was on my heart. I get asked about this a lot from my clients so I figured you might be experiencing some of the same feelings.

 

So…how can you handle peoples reactions/thoughts when making a lifestyle change?!

 

[I’m so Lucky to have amazing people around me.]

 

When you care more about what you’re doing than you care about what they think then it doesn’t matter.

When your why is deeper that’s all that matters.

 

Why do other people care what I am or am not putting in my body? They’re not the ones that have to wake up in my body tomorrow. I do. And I know what feels good and what doesn’t.

 

I’m not going to eat something that makes me feel like shit just because someone else has a problem with it.

 

You eating or not eating, drinking or not drinking, doing or not doing something has absolutely 0 affect on anybody else. Other than it bringing up an insecurity that they might have.

 

Most of the time when people are judging you, or making fun of you, it’s because it’s triggering something in them.

 

Maybe they have a problem with what you are or aren’t eating because it’s making them feel some kind of way.

 

Maybe it’s that they feel they’re doing something wrong- which there isn’t any such thing as right or wrong, everyone is on their own personal path.

 

Maybe they’re seeing how well you’re doing eating this way and it’s making them think oh wow I really want to do this but maybe they don’t have the belief enough in themselves that they could so it’s making them feel insecure and uncomfortable.

 

That’s not your issue to overcome. That’s theres.

It has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them.

 

If you want to change your lifestyle but you’re holding back or are nervous because you’re afraid of what someone else is going to think about it, you’re literally not improving your life because it’s going to make someone else uncomfortable.

 

If you do that you’re never going to be fulfilled in life. You’re letting someone else run your life.

 

Because how you do one thing is how you do everything.

 

Because of how much I felt better and how much I was learning about it, I couldn't care less about what anyone else thought about it. I literally blocked it out and just focussed on what I was doing and why I was doing it.

 

And if anyone made a comment I would just laugh it off with them and move on. It’s not always worth it to defend yourself because they might not be open to that conversation and you have nothing to prove.

 

The message I want to give to you today is that if you are interested in making a lifestyle change, obvi you are if you’re listening to this, but you’re hesitating or feeling uncomfortable when you go out to eat or go places because other people might feel uncomfortable, please don’t let that stop you.
