In this episode of the “How to Eat Cake on a Diet” podcast, we explore the transformative power of shifting your mindset from “I have to” to “I get to.”

Host Jody delves into the psychological roots of why obligation often triggers resistance, explaining how reactance—the instinct to push back against perceived constraints—can derail health goals. By reframing healthy behaviors as privileges and opportunities rather than burdens, you can cultivate gratitude, boost motivation, and reinforce positive habits.

Jody shares practical tips to make this shift, from changing self-talk and focusing on benefits to incorporating daily gratitude. Through inspiring client stories, like Lisa’s journey of turning weight loss obligations into joyful self-care, the episode highlights how this change can create lasting, meaningful progress.

Listeners are reminded that every step taken with a “get to” mindset builds resilience, self-compassion, and a more fulfilling health journey. Join us to learn how to transform your approach to health and empower yourself to thrive!
