EP 90: There Is No Backup Plan, This Either Happens or It Doesn’t
15:17|This episode is a straight conversation about why most women don’t fail their goals, they quietly leave the door open to quitting.I talk about the moment you have to draw a line in the sand and decide there is no other option except follow through. Not when it feels easy. Not when life is calm. But when you are tired, busy, social, distracted, or tempted to half-ass it.I break down how I’ve approached my own goals this year, the podcast streak, my Unbreakable 60 challenge, and why habits matter more than motivation or perfect conditions. We talk standards, boundaries, discipline, and the uncomfortable truth that results only come when you stop negotiating with yourself.If you’ve been making promises, starting strong, then slowly drifting back to old patterns, this episode will call you forward.This is about becoming the woman who follows through. Not someday. Not later. Now.
Ep 89: The Version of You That Got You Here Can’t Take You Where You Want to Go
14:29|This episode is about the part no one wants to look at.The reason you keep circling the same goals, the same habits, the same frustration is not because you don’t want it badly enough. It’s because you’re still behaving like the version of you that created your current life.I talk about how deeply attached we get to who we think we are. The stories we repeat. The habits we protect. The excuses that feel familiar and safe. And how that attachment quietly keeps us stuck, even when we swear we’re ready for more.I share how identity actually changes, not through motivation or affirmations, but through action that directly contradicts the old version of you. The uncomfortable reps. The moments you want to quit. The promises you keep when no one is watching.This episode will help you recognise where old you is still running the show, and how to start proving, through action, that you’re becoming someone different.Not one day. Not when it’s easy. Today.
Ep 88: Why Your Fat Loss Isn’t Working (Be Honest With Yourself)
21:44|This episode is a reality check.If you feel frustrated with your body, confused by the scale, or convinced something is “wrong” with you, this conversation will land hard.I break down why most women think they’re being compliant, but aren’t actually tracking properly. Not because they’re lazy, but because they’re guessing, eyeballing, skipping details, or only tracking when it feels comfortable.We talk about why partial tracking gives partial results, how delusion creeps in without data, and why the scale isn’t the enemy, avoidance is. I also unpack protein, carbs, fats, fibre, metabolic adaptation, and why your body isn’t broken, it’s responding exactly to what you’re giving it.This isn’t about restriction. It’s about ownership.If you’re tired of feeling stuck, spinning your wheels, or blaming hormones without proof, this episode will help you get honest, grounded, and back in control.
Ep 87: The Pussy Push-Up...
12:21|This episode is about the exact moment most people miss, the moment where you almost quit, soften the standard, or tell yourself it’s “good enough.”On Day One of Unbreakable, I catch myself choosing the easier option in the gym and call it out in real time. Not to be dramatic, but because that split second decision is the same one ruining progress in training, confidence, relationships, business, and life.This conversation isn’t about push-ups. It’s about identity. It’s about how often you let yourself off the hook when things get uncomfortable, and how that habit quietly keeps you stuck exactly where you are.We talk mental resistance, discomfort, and why physical training is one of the fastest ways to expose where you’re lying to yourself. If you’ve been making excuses, avoiding the hard reps, or convincing yourself you’ll “do better tomorrow,” this episode will hit.Because the version of you that gets what she wants doesn’t wait to feel ready. She stops negotiating with herself and shows up anyway.
Ep 86: I’m Doing Unbreakable in 60 Days, Here’s Why
18:55|In this episode, I’m sharing why I’ve committed to Unbreakable in 60 Days and what this challenge actually represents.This isn’t about chasing a body or proving anything online. It’s about stepping into the athlete mindset, building structure, and showing up even when motivation is gone. I talk through what triggered this decision, why feeling resentful or activated by other people’s success is often a sign you’re meant to act, and how discipline is built through small, repeatable habits, not hype.I break down the core pillars I’m locking in for the next 60 days, training with intention, structured nutrition, proper recovery, and protecting my energy. More importantly, I talk about who you have to become to follow through on any goal, and why following the plan, not your mood, is what actually creates momentum.If you’ve been winging it, waiting to feel ready, or telling yourself you’ll start when life is quieter, this episode is your reminder that progress comes from commitment, not perfect conditions.
Ep 85: Belief Is Built, Not Manifested
18:23|Most women don’t actually lack motivation. They lack belief in themselves.In this episode, I break down why your goals aren’t failing because you’re not capable, but because you don’t yet believe they’re possible for you. And that belief won’t come from vision boards, Pinterest saves, or positive thinking.It comes from action.If you’ve ever set big goals but felt that quiet doubt in your gut, the one that says “this probably won’t happen for me,” this episode will hit home.I talk about:Why belief doesn’t come first, action doesHow small daily habits become proof your brain can’t ignoreWhy following the plan on bad days matters more than good onesHow surrounding yourself with people who believe in you changes everythingWhy goals become inevitable when you keep stacking receiptsThis is about building belief the only way it actually sticks, by showing up, doing the reps, and proving to yourself that you’re someone who follows through.No pretending. Just the truth.If you want your goals to stop feeling like a fantasy and start feeling inevitable, this is where it begins.
Ep 84: Rejection Is the Price of the Life You Want
12:24|Most women aren’t failing.They’re avoiding rejection.In this episode, Henny breaks down why playing it safe is keeping you stuck on the sidelines of your own life and why every “no” you’re avoiding is actually moving you closer to the breakthrough you want.If you’ve been holding back from posting the content, starting the thing, committing to the plan, or putting yourself out there because you’re scared of failing or being rejected, this is your wake-up call.Rejection isn’t a sign you’re doing something wrong. It’s proof you’re finally in the game.Inside this episode, you’ll hear:Why rejection builds confidence faster than successHow avoiding discomfort keeps you smallWhy action is the cure for fearHow every no is getting you closer to the yes that changes everythingWhat it actually takes to stop watching your life and start leading itThis is Hard Words with Henny, with a huge heart.If you want the body, the confidence, the freedom, the business, or the life you keep saying you want, you have to be willing to pay the price.And that price is rejection.Hit subscribe, send this to a woman who needs to hear it, and then go do the thing you’ve been avoiding.You’re closer than you think.
Ep 83: You’re Not Confused, You’re Just Not Decided
17:24|This episode is a hard truth most women need to hear.If you feel overwhelmed, distracted, confused, or like you keep starting strong and falling off, it is not because you lack motivation, discipline, or willpower. It is because you keep negotiating with yourself instead of deciding.I break down why too much information is killing your progress, how decision fatigue is keeping you stuck in the same loop, and why chasing what everyone else is doing guarantees you never fully commit to your own plan. We talk about why success is not about finding the perfect strategy, but about choosing one path and having the courage to block out the noise.This episode will help you understand how to reverse engineer your goals, simplify your focus, remove friction from your life, and build non negotiables that actually work in the real world. Not on perfect days, but on busy, emotional, messy ones.If you are done consuming and ready to execute, done planning and ready to follow through, and ready to stop letting distractions steal the life you want, this conversation is for you.Your plan. Your body. Your terms.
Ep 82: Is One Bad Day Ruin Your Whole Week?
13:08|This episode is me calling out the exact moment most women lose momentum, not because they failed, but because they let one off day turn into a full spiral. I talk about why waiting for motivation is the fastest way to stay stuck, how perfection thinking quietly sabotages progress, and why the women who get results are not the ones with perfect weeks, they are the ones who follow the plan anyway.I break down how to prepare for the messy days before they happen, how to build non negotiables that work even when you are tired, emotional, sick, busy, or over it, and how to stop letting your mood decide your actions. This is about taking responsibility without shaming yourself, dropping the drama around “bad days,” and learning how to keep moving forward even when life throws curveballs.If you are tired of starting strong and falling off, tired of the all or nothing cycle, and ready to become someone who actually follows through, this episode will hit.
