74. Getting Uncomfortable & Celebrating: Getting the Edge with Your Mind, Part 2

Mind Your Body

L E T S G O. Let's go. Let’s go, butthole breathers! We’re back for part two of Getting the Edge with Your Mind, and it’s time to dive into what it really takes to move, live, and feel better. This is your best friend doctor, bringing you the real talk. And if you missed part one, go back and listen, because this episode builds on it.

We’re getting uncomfortable, and yeah, it’s gonna suck, but if you want the highs in life, you’ve got to step out of your comfort zone. That’s where growth happens. Most of us live in the middle, safe but boring.

If you want to hit those peaks, you’ve got to embrace the discomfort. So, here's your challenge: Celebrate everything! Not just the big stuff like birthdays or weddings (those are important too), but the small stuff, the everyday wins we ignore.

The action step?

I’m telling my clients to celebrate, even booking an appointment they’ve been putting off for years. That’s a win! They looked at me like I had five heads when I asked how they’d celebrate it. It doesn’t have to be big. It could be going on a walk with your partner, grabbing coffee at your favorite spot, taking 15 minutes for yourself, or shutting your phone off and getting some quality time in.

You have to make it a habit to celebrate these little things. Why? because they change your brain chemistry! Dopamine and endorphins—it’s real science.

When you celebrate, those feel-good hormones kick in, helping lower stress and pain. I’m telling you to start celebrating and watch your life change.

Take it from my friend who fought cancer and celebrated being cancer-free with a simple dinner at their favorite spot. Big win, simple celebration, HUGE impact.

I get it. No one's coming to save you. You’ve got to do the work to prioritize yourself, get uncomfortable, and celebrate along the way. This is how you give yourself the edge, starting with those small wins.

So, celebrate something today. We’ve got this! Toodaloo, and stay tuned for part three!
