The Willetts Podcast

In this special episode, we sit down with our client Ashley to share her journey of losing over 100 pounds and, more importantly, maintaining those results. Ashley opens up about the programs that failed her in the past, the mindset shifts that changed everything, and how sustainable lifestyle changes impacted far more than just the number on the scale. From navigating Hashimoto’s disease to becoming a role model for her children, this conversation highlights what is possible when you commit to long-term change and are willing to take action, even when it feels uncomfortable.We talk about:-overcoming Hashimoto’s disease-becoming a role model for your children-breaking old habits-the impact of positive coach feedback-building sustainable lifestyle changes-becoming more physically capable-choosing to do it scaredTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction1:53 Ashley’s history4:20 programs that have failed in the fast6:28 being a “failure”9:34 overcoming hesitations11:24 creating learning opportunities13:25 coaching the whole person17:31 seeing physical changes24:30 focusing on sustainability26:10 message to former self30:22 message to someone who is scaredCONNECT WITH KAIT:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/

In this episode, we dive into the real cost of indecision and how overthinking quietly keeps people stuck. We unpack analysis paralysis, how living on screens impacts motivation and follow-through, and why consuming more information is not the same as taking action. This conversation is about learning to think critically, aligning your values with your effort, and understanding that progress does not require perfection. If you have been waiting to feel ready before you move forward, this episode will help you see what is actually holding you back and how to change it.We talk about:-thinking less and doing more-prioritizing self-care-the impact of living on screens-learning to think critically-emotions tied to the scale-why average is okay-aligning your values with your effortTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction3:55 knowing yourself5:22 how the iPhone steals your motivation14:53 how you’re showing up20:10 application versus information25:41 why people quit32:41 getting to where you want to be is not perfect37:29 shifting expectationsCONNECT WITH KAIT:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/

In this episode, we reflect on the lessons, challenges, and growth that defined 2025 while setting our focus and intentions for the year ahead. We talk openly about what it looks like to truly combine lives, maintain integrity in a world full of noise and skepticism, and continue speaking your truth even when it is uncomfortable. We also explore how to handle negativity, avoid procrastination, and narrow in on one meaningful goal. Along the way, we dive into how environment shapes behavior, the importance of communication, and what it really takes to become the person you want to be in the new year.We talk about:-combining our lives-skepticism in the time of AI-saying what you believe-dealing with negative comments-the procrastination trap-focusing on ONE goal-communication and alignment-how your environment drives behaviorTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction2:42 the year of clean up8:50 how you do anything is how you do everything14:40 working with the right clients21:02 focusing on communication25:50 “new year, new me”37:19 advice to be your best44:10 curating your phone usage49:49 environment drives behaviorCONNECT WITH KAIT:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/

In this episode, we answer one of the most common and confusing questions in body transformation: what is your ideal body weight, and what does it actually mean to be in maintenance? We break down how to identify a healthy body composition, how to stop cycling between restriction during the week and overeating on the weekends, and why maintenance is a skill, not a finish line. This conversation is about long-term sustainability, realistic expectations, and learning how to live in a body you can actually maintain.We talk about:-why you should not follow a diet you would not want your kids to follow-why the process matters more than shortcuts-why difficult does not automatically mean effective-developing a healthier mentality around the scale-fears around getting “bulky”-understanding energy in, energy out-learning to follow hunger and fullness cuesTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction1:56 finding your goal weight8:05 making sustainable choices11:06 how you know you’ve lost enough weight17:00 the “last 10 pounds”21:09 going through a build phase25:30 distorted body image29:08 when to eat at maintenance37:40 “eating clean”43:05 knowing when you’re hungry or full48:15 how to get your questions answeredCONNECT WITH KAIT:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/

In this episode, we dig into the cycle of losing and gaining the same 20 pounds. We explore the beliefs and mindset patterns that quietly sabotage long-term change and why willpower alone will never be enough. This conversation is all about shifting how you think, strengthening what you value, and creating a way of living that supports the transformation you want—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally. If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated, or convinced that you “should have this figured out by now,” this one will hit home.We talk about:-strengthening your values-committing to yourself-finding freedom in the gray area-borrowing belief when yours feels low-moving forward after being burned-continuing your education and your growthTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction3:03 how you do anything is how you do everything7:47 committing when life is busy12:20 finding clarity18:45 “I should have this figured out”30:42 being leet down before41:40 “life coaches”46:17 the use of AI in DMs49:53 talking about moneyCONNECT WITH KAIT:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/

In this episode, we open up about the real-life struggles that show up in marriage and personal life — the stress, the anxiety, the messy moments, and the ways we choose to work through them. From juggling blended family dynamics to learning what true intimacy and safety feel like, this conversation is grounded in honesty and the lessons we’ve learned the hard way.

In this episode, we explore what it really means to “show up” in your life, your relationship, and your health. Your standards, your habits, and your communication do not exist in isolation — they influence the people closest to you, especially when you are trying to make changes and your partner is not on the same page. We dig into the emotional, practical, and relational sides of pursuing growth while maintaining connection, and how your behavior can inspire change without pressure or resentment. This conversation is for anyone navigating personal goals while trying to honor their relationship at the same time.We talk about:-setting standards for yourself-leading with curiosity-having hard conversations-assuming the worst-supporting your partner-how you do anything is how you do everything-environment dictates behavior-building emotional connectionTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction7:43 raising your own waterline12:40 communicating your needs21:15 creating a feeling a safety 29:45 shifting your identity for body transformation 36:15 taking accountability40:09 being “equal” in your fitness48:10 physiological and psychological health57:56 problem solving togetherCONNECT WITH KAIT:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/
