211 - If You’re Always Chasing, What Are You Really Running From?

Ever feel like you're only as good as your last workout, client win, or productive day?

This week on Fitter Food Radio, Matt and Keris chat about the dangers of building your entire identity around one thing – like fitness, work, or just being busy all the time.

We explore how easy it is to lose yourself when you're constantly chasing, doing, needing, proving… and why stepping off the hamster wheel might just be the healthiest thing you can do.

We also talk about emotional resilience and how you can’t always control what life throws your way, but you can learn to respond differently.

Plus:

Why your worth isn’t defined by how much you “do”
The power of pressing pause (without guilt)
How to reconnect with who you are beyond the labels

This one’s a grounding, reflective chat with plenty of practical insights for staying sane and steady in a chaotic world.

As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts, email us at info@fitterfood.com.

P.S. If this episode resonates and you’re ready to rebuild your mindset, nutrition and fitness from a place of self-worth and sustainability, doors are now open for our next Strong Humans Project, kicking off 30 June. We’d love to have you join us: www.fitterfood.com/thestronghumansproject/
