Recalculating: What to Do When You Get Off Track
Sun Jan 25 2026
Ever make a wrong turn while using your GPS?
What happens when you do?
It doesn't tell you that you screwed up.
It doesn't say you're never going to reach your destination.
It doesn't tell you to pull over, turn around, or quit.
And it definitely doesn't say you failed.
It stays calm… and simply says:
Recalculating.
In this episode, I break down why that mindset is exactly what most people are missing when it comes to their health, fitness, nutrition, and life. Too many people treat one wrong turn — a bad meal, a missed workout, a stressful week — like total failure.
But progress isn't about never getting off track.
It's about knowing how to adjust without quitting.
We'll talk about:
Why one setback doesn't erase your progress
How all-or-nothing thinking keeps people stuck
The power of recalibrating instead of restarting
And how to keep moving forward without the guilt, shame, or self-sabotage
Because real growth doesn't come from perfection — it comes from knowing how to recalculate and keep driving.
