Episode 112: How to EMBRACE Growing Phases

Growing phases can be extremely hard to handle, not just physically... but mentally over anything else. Especially as a female when there is so much narrative around being 'smaller', it feels backwards to chase doing the opposite. But it's ultimately such a wonderful and important process to embrace - to not only make amazing progress - but to fully embrace being the best version of yourself (not the smallest version of yourself) So here's some of my advice on how to do this ❤️ If you enjoyed the episode, please make sure to give the podcast a 5 Star Rating ⭐️  Message me about your goals here: https://wa.link/q50uty [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGZTSm9QNXBZbHpaaGNuTXoybGE3Z0lMTVRXZ3xBQ3Jtc0tsd2RyTDBsdzFnaE1CZVhqM05Hc0JKc3RmSTJKTnJSX0NjYXMwaEotY21rVEVlRWlrbGs0YUxIZERHampJT25CUC1DZVZ2aVlPQ2tMVHhXVWZaUnlTYUxsVWRRUzZsWVF2Wk0zMVY1RFlubWc3ejNfNA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwa.link%2Fq50uty&v=Ph-bi3uuM00] Coaching Enquiries: https://form.typeform.com/to/iZ9zMXjK [https://form.typeform.com/to/iZ9zMXjK] NBW Clothing (Code LOZ): https://nbwclothing.com/ [https://nbwclothing.com/] Join the Natural Bodybuilding Worldwide Community today: https://naturalbbworldwide.com/ [https://naturalbbworldwide.com/]  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/loz.v/ [https://www.instagram.com/loz.v/] YouTube: www.youtube.com/@loz.vickers [http://www.youtube.com/@loz.vickers] Shop for ALL of your Supplements over at Pitstop Nutrition, Code ‘LOZ10’:  https://pitstopnutrition.co.uk?sca_ref=9492715.ne77awIvi8bNpx [https://pitstopnutrition.co.uk?sca_ref=9492715.ne77awIvi8bNpx]
