Are you interested in fitness competitions? Have you been worried about weight loss and dieting? In this episode, we dive into the culture of fitness competitions, the struggle to diet for an event or competition, and how easy it is for your diet to take over your life. In this episode I talk with Kim Barnes Jefferson, a travel junkie, master coach, podcast host, and lifestyle engineer, joins us to discuss how she went from fitness competitor to fitness coach. She talks about her own experiences with dieting taking over her life, and why her passion is to help women lose weight while also enjoying their lives. We discuss all things health, including routine, habits, small wins and so much more.

- How did you become the honesty coach?
- How long did you compete for?
- What made you stop and decide to get into coaching?
- How do you help people reach a goal?
- Why are small goals important?
- Doesn’t it all come down to habits?
- Why do we need a routine?
- Why does self-talk make a difference?
- What advice do you have for listeners?
