We hear it all the time… “I need accountability!”

When it comes to getting results (whether the goal is weight loss, getting off statins, or simply loving the person you see in the mirror), accountability can help you start eating a whole food plant-based diet, exercising consistently, meditating, and implementing other forms of self-care.

But how do you stay motivated long after your willpower runs out? 

How do you break the old, unhealthy patterns you’ve been trying to replace for years? 

How do you adopt a new way of life when the old way is so ingrained? 

In this actionable episode, we dive into the topic of accountability and give you simple yet powerful strategies you can apply to your life starting today!

Ever feel like rolling your eyes when someone talks about the importance of self-compassion?

LISTEN/WATCH

Subscribe: Apple Podcast | Stitcher | Spotify |  YouTube

*Links mentioned in the episode are at the bottom of this page.

Oftentimes if we’re giving in to junk foods, overeating, skipping our workouts, we think we need a kick in the butt, not compassion!

In this enlightening episode, we discuss the benefits of self-compassion, the consequences of not showing yourself compassion, and strategies for embodying self-compassion.

It’s easy to be good to ourselves on those days when we are on top of the world.  Self-esteem flying high. Life is rolling and beautiful.

But let’s face it…those are moments, not the way life is all the time.

Self-compassion is treating ourselves with kindness and empathy in our not so beautiful moments.

Kristen Neff, the leading researcher in the field of self-compassion, says there are three components:  

1. Self-Kindness: Being kind and understanding towards ourselves.  Instead of allowing our inner critic to run amok, speaking to ourselves in a loving way, as we would a friend.
2. Feeling of Common Humanity: Recognizing that everyone makes mistakes, no one is without weakness. Understanding our humanity is accepting that we are not alone.
3. Mindfulness: Being in the moment, becoming mindful of the now allows us to not become engulfed by our troubles, difficulties, or anxiety. It allows us to put things into perspective.

Here are some strategies…

1. Ask yourself:  “What do I need right now?”  Sometimes we aren’t very good at answering this question for ourselves in those moments of difficulty, so in that case, take it outside of yourself and…
2. Ask yourself:  What would I say to my best friend in this situation, and HOW would I say it?  We often offer more warmth and kindness to others than we do for ourselves.  When we are in need, we need to offer that same warmth and kindness to ourselves.
3. Invest in yourself according to your needs.  Sometimes that means an afternoon away in nature or two weeks off from work.  At other times, that means really allowing yourself to take a very big step and do what needs to be done for your well-being and health.

I had the fortune of speaking with Monk Coleman, who is an author, transformational coach, public speaker, personal trainer, and 3X Pro Natural Physique Bodybuilder. 

Monk grew up fatherless and had a very poor upbringing, eventually falling into a life of substance abuse and crime. 

After hitting rock bottom he turned to meditation and transformed his entire life to that of service. 

Now 13 years sober and living a completely different life, he works with others to help facilitate their healing through his coaching. 

His new, powerful book is Love Over Fear: A Guide to Peace and Purpose. He is working to get it into health and wellness centers, schools, halfway houses, and correctional facilities where it can make a massive impact.

In Episode 70 of The Vegan Life Coach Podcast, I sit down with New York Times bestselling author (with Robert Cheeke) of The Plant-Based Athlete, and a vegan ultramarathoner, author, and entrepreneur, best known as the founder of the No Meat Athlete movement and host of the No Meat Athlete Radio podcast.

In addition to discussing his new book (which is making WAVES!), we cover a lot of ground in this episode… From Matt’s journey into veganism to life after 40 to willpower, supplements, and the future of the plant-based and vegan movements.

You’re in for a treat. Enjoy!!

About Matt:

Matt Frazier is the New York Times bestselling author (with Robert Cheeke) of The Plant-Based Athlete, and a vegan ultramarathoner, author, and entrepreneur, best known as the founder of the No Meat Athlete movement and host of the No Meat Athlete Radio podcast. Matt found he could run longer and faster with the help of a plant-based diet, and shortly after adopting a plant-based diet, Matt qualified for the Boston Marathon after taking over 100 minutes off his first marathon time. He has run several 50-milers and a 100-mile ultramarathon on a vegan diet.

Matt’s books have sold over 150,000 copies in five languages, and he and his work have been featured in books including Rich Roll’s Finding Ultra, Brendan Brazier’s Thrive Foods, Seth Godin’s What to Do When It’s Your Turn, Julianna Hever, and Ray Cronise’s Complete Idiot’s Guide to Plant-Based Nutrition, and Kathy Freston’s Clean Protein; print magazines such as Runner’s World, Trail Runner, Outside Magazine, VegNews, Shape, and Canadian Running; online publications including Sports Illustrated, People, Huffington Post, Forbes, Business Insider, WebMD, Shape, and Competitor; and other media including CNN and the Rich Roll Podcast, where Matt has been a two-time guest.

In 2015, Matt was named by Greatist as one of the 100 Most Influential People in Health and Fitness, and Sports Illustrated called The No Meat Athlete Cookbook one of the 7 Best Health & Wellness Books of 2017. 

Along with No Meat Athlete, Matt co-founded Complement (lovecomplement.com) and 80/20 Plants (8020plants.com), two companies whose mission is to grow the plant-based movement and help vegans thrive.

Matt lives in Charlotte, North Carolina with his wife, two plant-based athlete kids, and rescued dog and cat.
