28: Self-Accountability: Creating Habits to Thrive
“Whether I chose the veggies over the chips and salsa or chose the soda water over the vodka, I’m like, ‘I will feel so proud, I will feel so accomplished.’ It was so much bigger than really the choice that was right in front of me.”
Have you ever whispered a promise into the mirror, only to watch it fade with the steam? Our hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond tackle the dance of self-accountability and the profound effect it has on our personal growth in this episode of The Good Enough Podcast.
Imagine transforming procrastination into productivity, and old habits into new milestones. Jessica and McKenzie crack open the discussion on setting achievable goals, revealing how small steps can lead to significant changes. Whether it’s the emotional turmoil of breaking promises to ourselves or the triumph of returning to commitments, they navigate the mental patterns that shape our habits. With each anecdote and reflection, they underscore the importance of a fresh mindset and self-compassion on this winding road of self-improvement.
The Good Enough Goddesses celebrate the beauty of adaptability—how the ritual of cacao and the wisdom of Ayurvedic eating can revitalize our health choices and personal identity. They discuss how embracing a ‘flexitarian’ approach to life allows us to honor our bodies’ needs without being shackled by rigid labels. May this heart-to-heart be a reminder that authenticity and vulnerability are essential companions on the path where being ‘good enough’ is not just an affirmation, but a way of life.
