    Episode 67 - Two things most people get wrong when they start a health and fitness journey

    Welcome to Chasing Highs, my podcast about feeling good!  In this episode I share two things that most people get wrong when they start a health and fitness journey, based on what I’ve seen from coaching hundreds of women.  The first problem is that people try to white-knuckle themselves into change, and use guilt, shame and discipline to change their behaviours. And the second problem is that people only focus on the physical side of health and fitness but neglect the mindset work.  I discuss why both of these things are problematic, and what we should be doing instead if we’re on a health and fitness journey and want to actually stick with it for the rest of our lives.

    Episode 60 - Are you caring for your mental health as much as your physical health?

    Welcome to Chasing Highs, my podcast about feeling good!  In this episode I ask whether you’re caring for your mental health as much as your physical health?  Sure, we all know we should be getting our 10,000 steps, eating broccoli and getting enough sleep. And most of us are pretty good at doing those things.  But how good are you at naming your emotions, talking to yourself kindly, knowing your values, upholding your boundaries, connecting with others and making time for fun?!  Because these things are JUST as important for our health! But I’m willing to bet that these things don’t come quite so naturally to you. Connect with me on Instagram here: ⁠maddie_freeman_fitness⁠
