<description>&lt;p&gt;You had the wrong outfit. You ate too big of a breakfast. You woke up five minutes late. Sound familiar? If you have ever talked yourself out of a workout with reasons that wouldn't hold up under any real scrutiny, this episode is going to hit close to home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ashley gets real about the mental gymnastics she used to do to avoid the gym and how she completely flipped the script. Now she blocks her workout classes in her calendar like client appointments because, for her, that is exactly what they are. If you are still treating your workouts as optional, this episode will give you a new way to think about showing up for yourself, one calendar invite at a time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Want to share your story or give feedback on the show?
