Rolling with Life's Punches: Adapting with Erin and Michael on Middleish

I think that having any kind of a scale definitely shows that there is that gray area, that flexibility, and I love that concept with people, because I really think this all or none thinking is like the kryptonite of health.
Picture this: you’ve just hit your stride with a new workout routine, and then—bam!—your kid gets sick, throwing your plans out the window. Or maybe you’re on a roll with meal prepping, only to be blindsided by a week full of unexpected lunch meetings. Sound familiar? Erin Green and Michael Gray get it. In this episode of Middleish, they dive into the inevitability of life's curveballs and how to handle them without throwing in the towel.
Erin and Michael share real-life stories from their clients and their own experiences to illustrate that hiccups are part of the journey. They talk about the importance of flexibility and introduce the 'dial method'—a way to measure progress without the pressure of perfection. Instead of adopting an all-or-nothing mindset, they advocate for planning ahead and being kind to yourself when things don’t go as planned.
One of the standout moments is when they ask listeners to share their own stories of overcoming unexpected disruptions. It's a call to arms for anyone who’s ever felt like quitting when life gets tough. The hosts emphasize that these moments are opportunities for growth and learning, not signs to give up. If you’re looking for practical advice on how to stay on track with your health goals despite life’s unpredictability, this episode is a must-listen.
Erin and Michael’s blend of humor, empathy, and expert insight makes for an engaging and enlightening discussion that will leave you feeling empowered to tackle whatever comes your way.
