Wellness Mastery with Jen Hoyer

Episode 50 - A New Chapter & What This Work Has Taught Me (Part 1)

Episode 50: A New Chapter—What Coaching Has Taught Me (Part 1) In episode 50 Coach Jen Hoyer shares the difficult decision to begin winding down her coaching business after a vivid dream about having two months to live prompted her to reassess priorities, balance, and presence with her family. She reflects on what the last five years of coaching taught her and introduces a two-part list of core principles grouped into five areas, covering in this episode: thoughts and beliefs, emotions and emotional resiliency, and food and habits. Key ideas include that long-term weight loss struggles are often rooted in thoughts, beliefs, emotional patterns, and nervous system safety rather than information; self-compassion and awareness support lasting change; urges and emotions can be allowed and processed rather than avoided; and sustainable progress comes from small consistent habits and rejecting all-or-nothing thinking. She previews a follow-up episode and notes continued self-study resources and monthly coaching through November. 00:00 Episode 50 Begins 01:16 Winding Down Coaching 01:42 The Dream Message 03:08 Life Out of Balance 04:38 Why It’s Time 05:54 Lessons Learned List 07:59 Thoughts And Beliefs 12:59 Emotional Resilience 16:50 Food And Habits 20:17 Pause And Reflect 21:08 Thank You And Next Steps 21:28 Ways To Continue Want to go deeper and experience how coaching can change your journey?

Episode 49 - Daffodils, Decisions  Ahead of Time and the Life You're Quietly Building

Episode 49: Daffodils, Decisions Ahead of Time and the Life You're Quietly Building In this episode, coach Jen Hoyer uses the spring blooming of daffodils she planted in the fall to illustrate how today’s results come from earlier, often forgotten decisions and invisible work. She explains that meaningful change requires enduring the gap between “planting” and “harvesting,” and introduces “decisions ahead of time” as a tool to reduce in-the-moment negotiation and reactive behavior. Jen contrasts a present-focused “teen brain” seeking immediate comfort with a future-focused “adult brain” that plans for long-term outcomes, emphasizing that decision discipline lets the adult brain lead. Drawing on ideas from The Mountain Is You and principles as consistent natural laws, she highlights the “law of the harvest” and offers reflective questions to help listeners plan, build self-trust, and stay consistent during the unseen season. 00:51 Daffodils Lesson 01:40 Planting And Waiting 03:15 Invisible Work Gap 04:33 Decide Ahead Of Time 06:33 Teen Versus Adult Brain 08:18 Planning Beats Willpower 09:09 Principles And Harvest 11:33 Invisible Season Matters 12:08 Practical Reflection Questions 13:20 Closing Encouragement Want to go deeper and experience how coaching can change your journey?

Episode 48 - Priorities and Distractions

Episode 48: Priorities and Distractions In episode 48 of Wellness Mastery, coach Jen Hoyer shares a vivid dream in which she’s told she has about two months to live, which brings unexpected peace and clarity about what truly matters: being present with her kids, taking meaningful trips, and appreciating her body as a miracle rather than criticizing its size. The dream highlights “great distractions” such as self-criticism, judgment, old hurts, regrets, worries, and expectations, and she describes choosing instead true health of mind, body, and spirit, presence, growth, creativity, connection, and love. She invites listeners to do a two-month thought exercise to identify what to release and what to prioritize now. 00:00 Episode Intro 00:55 Why Wellness Mastery 02:06 A Dream Wake Up 03:26 Two Months Clarity 06:49 The Great Distractions 08:25 Letting Go List 09:17 Choosing On Purpose 11:30 Two Month Exercise 12:35 Live Intentionally 14:03 Closing Reflections Want to go deeper and experience how coaching can change your journey?

Episode 46 - The Hidden Cost of “Just Try Harder”

Episode 46: The Hidden Cost of “Just Try Harder” In Episode 46 of Wellness Mastery, coach Jen Hoyer uses a skiing story—accidentally ending up on “experts only” runs and hitting a point of physical exhaustion—to illustrate common patterns in health and weight-loss journeys. She explains that willpower is finite and gets depleted when people rely on “white-knuckling” through change, then misinterpret burnout as personal weakness or failure. Jen describes how many people jump from “novice” to “expert” too quickly by making massive, perfection-driven changes to diet and exercise, which often leads to overwhelm, quitting early, and self-criticism. Instead, she emphasizes building capacity—physical, mental, emotional, and skill capacity—through small, repeatable, sustainable actions over time. She reframes weight loss as a skill-building journey (managing urges, regulating emotions, planning, recovering from off-plan moments without judgment, and learning to trust the body) rather than a willpower problem, and shares that she lost 33 pounds in 18 months by building capacity step by step. The episode includes reflection questions for listeners to identify where they’ve relied on willpower, where they’ve taken on “expert terrain” too soon, and what small skill they can build next. 00:00 Episode 46 Kickoff: The Hidden Cost of “Just Try Harder” 00:49 Spring Snow in Utah: A New Mountain Adventure 02:44 The “Experts Only” Run: When Excitement Turns Intimidating 05:11 Legs on Fire: Pushed Past Your Limits 07:05 Lesson 1 — Willpower Runs Out (It’s Not a Character Flaw) 09:28 Lesson 2 — Don’t Jump from Novice to Expert Overnight 11:45 Lesson 3 — Why We Quit Early (and How to Reframe It) 12:55 What to Do Instead: Build Physical, Mental & Skill Capacity 15:42 Weight Loss Is Skill-Building: Small Steps That Last 19:13 Closing Reflections + Invitation to the Wellness Mastery Society Want to go deeper and experience how coaching can change your journey?
