We're halfway through the week. Time to stop and notice what's actually going well. Drop ONE win from this week in the comments. Big or small, it all counts. 💡 NEED SOME IDEAS? → Picked water over the second drink → Got to bed earlier than usual → Lifted a bit heavier or got an extra rep 🔥 WHY THIS MATTERS RIGHT NOW The 8-Week Head Start Challenge kicks off on the 26th. The habits you build in the next couple of weeks are the ones you'll take straight into it. Steps, food logging, showing up. If you're already stacking wins now, you're starting ahead. 👊 YOUR TURN → Share your win below → Hype up at least one other person's win → Every comment counts toward the leaderboard I'll go first 👇

Every week of the challenge I'm running a live call in Skool called The Head Start Debrief, and I want to lock in a time that works for most of you. 📋 HOW IT WORKS → I'll open with a topic each week, around 20 minutes → Then it's open floor. Bring your check-in questions, your training questions, anything → Challenge entrants, Skool members and coaching clients are all welcome → Every call gets recorded and posted in the classroom, so if you can't make it live you won't miss out 🗳️ VOTE BELOW All times are Adelaide time. Pick the one you're most likely to actually turn up to, not the one that sounds best. Poll closes SOON and I'll lock it in from there.
