We talk about: * Why rituals work where resolutions fail (especially in midlife) * How nervous system safety shapes consistency and follow-through * The current energetic landscape (New Moon + Deep Winter, in plain English) * How this moment is felt differently through each Warrior Goddess Archetype: * Seeker * Warrior * Alchemist * Guardian * Why preparing the ground matters more than forcing outcomes This is about honouring the season you’re in — in your body, your nervous system, and your life — and choosing a way forward that your system can actually trust. 🔮 Ready to Go Deeper? ✨ Take the Warrior Goddess Archetype Quiz Discover whether you’re a Seeker, Warrior, Alchemist, or Guardian — and understand how your nervous system, habits, and patterns are shaped by your archetype. 👉 Take the quiz here, Enter the Saga: thewarriorgoddesssaga.com [http://thewarriorgoddesssaga.com] 🔥 Join The Quickening (Live) starts Sun 1st Fe If you’re craving structure without pressure, support without shame, and a way to begin again that feels safe in your body — The Quickening is your invitation.

183: You Don’t Lack Willpower, You Lack Nervous System Safety

You Don’t Lack Willpower, You Lack Nervous System Safety If willpower keeps collapsing, motivation disappears, and consistency feels impossible,  this episode is for you. In this episode of Goddess Got Goals, we explore why what looks like “lack of discipline” is often your nervous system protecting you. You’ll learn why safety must come before strategy, how Armour Weight forms through chronic stress, and why pushing harder only deepens resistance. We also introduce Alchemy Anchors,  small, safety-led micro habits that rebuild self-trust, calm the nervous system, and gently replace the inner mean girl with something far more powerful: inner reliability. This isn’t about trying harder or becoming more disciplined. It’s about helping your body feel safe enough to begin again. Because you don’t lack willpower. You lack nervous system safety and that can be rebuilt. ✨ Links mentioned in this episode: • The Quickening (nervous system reset & re-entry point) www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/quickening [https://www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/quickening] • Warrior Goddess Archetype Quiz thewarriorgoddesssaga.com [http://thewarriorgoddesssaga.com] • Book Unarmoured www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/unarmoured [https://www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/unarmoured] Quickening Ad Be sure to connect with Lisa Barwise and Warrior Goddess Kettlebell Training on social media: Instagram @lisa_barwise @wgkettlebelltraining Facebook www.facebook.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining Youtube https://www.youtube.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining [https://www.youtube.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining] What you can do to help the Podcast?

WGW3: Follow The Wheel, Not the Calendar

Our new weekly bonus Warrior Goddess Weekly episodes. This episode opens the Warrior Goddess Saga in stillness — not hype. January is not a natural beginning. It’s a cultural one. Before “New Year, New You,” there was winter. In this Warrior Goddess Weekly, Lisa explores wintering as a biological, seasonal, and nervous-system truth — not a motivation problem. Drawing on cyclical wisdom and midlife physiology, she unpacks why January pressure feels so heavy, especially in perimenopause and menopause. You’ll hear why: * Nature rests in winter — she doesn’t reset * January urgency is cultural, not natural * Midlife bodies respond to safety, not force * Rest is alignment, not indulgence * Strength cannot be built on unsafe ground If you feel tired, heavy, or slow right now — you might not be failing. You might just be wintering. 🛡️ Begin gently: If something in this resonates, start where safety lives. Take the Warrior Goddess Archetype Quiz to understand how your body, mind, and energy work together — or begin with Unarmoured, the book that opens the door to releasing the weight no diet or discipline can touch. thewarriorgoddesssaga.com You can watch this episode on Youtube  https://www.youtube.com/@thewarriorgoddesssaga Quickening Ad Be sure to connect with Lisa Barwise and Warrior Goddess Kettlebell Training on social media: Instagram @lisa_barwise @wgkettlebelltraining Facebook www.facebook.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining Youtube https://www.youtube.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining [https://www.youtube.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining] What you can do to help the Podcast?

182: You’re Not Inconsistent — You’re Dysregulated: The Feminine Nervous System

🎧 You’re Not Inconsistent — You’re Dysregulated: The Feminine Nervous System If consistency feels impossible… if you keep starting and stopping… if you’ve been telling yourself you’re lazy, unreliable, or “just can’t stick to anything”,  this episode is for you. In this episode of the Unarmoured podcast series, we explore the feminine nervous system in human language,  and why what looks like inconsistency is often your body trying to keep you safe. You’ll learn why women are more likely to default to freeze and people-pleasing, how stress responses are survival strategies (not flaws), and why no amount of planning or willpower works when safety is missing. This conversation isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about understanding yourself — and releasing the shame that keeps the armour in place. Because you are not self-sabotaging. You are self-protecting. ✨ Links mentioned in this episode: Take the Warrior Goddess Archetype Quiz thewarriorgoddesssaga.com [http://thewarriorgoddesssaga.com] Explore the book: Unarmoured  https://www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/unarmoured/ [https://www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/unarmoured/] (Chapter 4 goes deeper — this is where the armour starts to loosen) Join the Tribe Community https://www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/tribe/ [https://www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/tribe/] Quickening Ad Be sure to connect with Lisa Barwise and Warrior Goddess Kettlebell Training on social media: Instagram @lisa_barwise @wgkettlebelltraining Facebook www.facebook.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining Youtube https://www.youtube.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining [https://www.youtube.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining] What you can do to help the Podcast?

181: The Weight Workouts Can’t Touch: Armour Weight™ & the Cost of Survival

There’s a kind of weight no workout, diet, or discipline can touch. In this episode, Lisa Barwise introduces Armour Weight™ — the physical, hormonal, emotional, and energetic weight women carry after years of survival, over-giving, and pushing through. If you’ve been doing “everything right” but still feel stuck, heavy, exhausted, or disconnected — this conversation will change how you understand your body. In this episode, we explore: * What Armour Weight™ actually is (and why it’s not fat, failure, or lack of willpower) * Why women stay stuck despite training, eating well, and “trying harder” * The link between burnout, perimenopause, shame, and people-pleasing * How chronic stress and survival mode reshape the body and metabolism * Why willpower tightens armour — and what actually releases it * Lisa’s personal story of burnout, vertigo, COVID, pressure, and coming home to herself * The nervous system as the missing link in lasting transformation > “Some weight lives on the body. > Some weight lives in the bones.” This episode is an invitation to stop fighting your body — and start listening to it. 📖 Pre-Order the Book Unarmoured: The Wellness Alchemy Guide to Releasing Armour Weight™ and Rising Into Your Warrior Goddess Era 👉 Pre-order now www.warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com/unarmoured This book is for every woman who’s carried more than her own weight — and decided it ends here. 🎧 Listen now and share this episode with a woman who needs permission to stop bracing.
