From All-or-Nothing to Just Showing Up with Sarah Filandrianos

<p>Big Day Fitness member Sarah Filandrianos joins Bobby and Maria to talk about what changed when she stopped chasing perfect and started just showing up. A lifelong all-or-nothing person, Sarah used to need a Monday, a first-of-the-month, and a big goal before she&#39;d start anything. Now she&#39;s booked three days a week whether her eating is on point or not — and the results have followed her onto the Appalachian Trail, into a six-person hot tub, and through a year with almost no injuries.</p><p><br></p><p>We cover why small-group training makes you braver than one-on-one, how letting go of the perfect plan finally got Sarah through a marathon, hiking alongside her daughter&#39;s 146-day Appalachian Trail thru-hike, the &quot;add before you subtract&quot; nutrition frame, and why taking a week and a half off made her knee hurt more, not less.</p><p> </p><p>CHAPTERS</p><p>(0:00) Intro</p><p>(0:28) Driving from Duxbury to Norwell</p><p>(2:00) No Big Day nearby?
