Okay, friend. Let’s be honest. Summer was fun, a little chaotic, and probably filled with more BBQs, late nights, and “I’ll start fresh tomorrow” moments than you’d like to admit. But here we are. The kids are back in school, routines are falling back into place, and that means one thing..... It’s time to get your ass back in gear.
September Reset – No More Excuses I know, I know January gets all the hype for being the season of fresh starts. But I’m calling it: September is the new January. Why? Because you finally have a routine again. And when you’ve got structure, you’ve got space to build new habits that stick.
The Truth About Excuses (and Why They’re Lying to You)
We all have them. No time. Too tired. Don’t know where to start.
But here’s the reality → those excuses aren’t truths. They’re just habits your brain has been repeating to keep you comfortable. Your brain LOVES easy. It will always choose Netflix over lunges if you let it. But the cool part? You can rewire it.
Every time you choose a small win like a 10-minute walk, drinking water before your coffee, or adding protein to breakfast... you’re retraining your brain to crave progress instead of excuses.
The Big 3 You Need to Focus On (My BBB Formula)
When it comes to ditching excuses and making lasting change, I coach women to focus on three pillars: Body, Brain, and Balance.
✨ Body – Fuel your body with what it actually needs. Think: protein (especially leucine-rich protein that triggers muscle repair), fibre, and daily movement. You don’t need an hour at the gym... science says even 10 minutes counts!! #winning

✨ Brain – Your mindset and habits matter. Habits are like trails in your brain... the more you walk them, the stronger they get. Every time you “get back on track” faster, you’re making the healthy trail stronger and the excuse-trail weaker.

✨ Balance – This one’s huge. Stress, sleep, and hormones play a massive role in your energy and cravings. High cortisol (your stress hormone) can actually trigger belly fat storage and make you feel exhausted. Managing stress, fueling right, and prioritizing rest keeps everything in check.

September Reset: Simple Changes That Work
Here’s where I see most people go wrong—they overcomplicate it. You don’t need a brand new life plan. You just need to get back to the basics:
✅ Start your day with protein (25–30g to fuel muscles and control hunger hormones).

✅ Find your 10-minute window—walk, stretch, bodyweight moves, whatever. Just move.

✅ Balance your energy—pair protein with fibre-rich carbs so you’re not crashing mid-afternoon.

✅ Get back up quicker—stop throwing away a whole week because of one “off” day.
Let’s Call It Out
Here’s my challenge to you → stop letting excuses run the show. No more waiting until Monday. No more “I’ll start in January.”

This is YOUR fresh start, right here, right now.
So tell me: What’s the #1 excuse you’re leaving behind this month? Drop it in the comments, or better yet—write it down, cross it out, and choose a new story.
Because this September? We’re done with excuses.
