Why does exercise feel so hard for so many people? In the first episode of Into the Green Zone we explore why movement can feel stressful, emotionally loaded, or impossible to stick with, and why that isn't a personal failure.

We unpack how diet culture, healthism, productivity culture, and past experiences shape the way we think about exercise. We also explore why advice like "just be consistent" often misses the mark.If you've ever felt guilty, burnt out, anxious, or like you've failed at exercise, this episode is for you. Movement isn't difficult because you're lazy or unmotivated. It's often because you've been taught to relate to it in ways that don't support your body.

If you enjoyed this episode, we'd love it if you followed the podcast, left a review, or shared it with someone who might find it helpful.
