You’re not failing because you lack discipline. You’re failing because your approach isn’t sustainable.This solo conversation is about one of the biggest mindset traps that keeps people stuck: the all-or-nothing mentality. We talk about why extreme restriction always leads to burnout, how guilt and shame keep you in the yo-yo dieting cycle, and what it really means to live in the gray. I share lessons from my own experience with rigid eating, the patterns I see in clients every day, and how learning to take ownership (instead of chasing perfection) creates real, lasting change.If you’re tired of the highs and lows of dieting, this one’s going to hit close to home.Episode Timeline:&nbsp;0:00 – Episode Preview1:31 – Podcast Intro&nbsp;2:31 – &nbsp;What the all-or-nothing mindset is3:42 – The client stuck in a yo-yo diet cycle7:05 – Why restrictive diets always backfire9:40 – My personal struggle with rigid eating13:15 – The real reason we bounce between extremes15:45 – Why it’s not about food, it’s about mindset18:50 – Learning to take ownership and eat like an adult21:35 – Building systems that work in real life24:15 – How to live in the gray without guilt26:30 – Podcast Outro and invitation to take actionLinks & Resources:<ul><li>Connect with Ben on Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/benbrown_bodycoaching" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/</a></li><li>Learn more about Ben’s coaching program: <a href="http://www.bodysystems.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.bodysystems.com</a></li><li>Subscribe to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show on Apple Podcasts - <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-smart-nutrition-made-simple-show-with-ben-brown/id1244912234" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-smart-nutrition-made-simple-show-with-ben-brown/id1244912234</a>&nbsp;</li><li>&nbsp;Spotify - <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/4H8vUlwYvKcAXZOv84sFgT" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/4H8vUlwYvKcAXZOv84sFgT</a>&nbsp;</li><li>Youtube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@bodysystemscoaching" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@bodysystemscoaching</a>&nbsp;</li><li>Book Free Nutrition Strategy Call -&nbsp; <a href="https://bodysystems.com/free-strategy-call/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bodysystems.com/free-strategy-call/</a>&nbsp;</li></ul>
