NEW COURSE: How to Make Adulting Suck Less: https://jessdiamondcoaching.com/suck-less/ Watch my TEDx Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RE_7I6vDKrI In this episode I am breaking down why your twenties are genuinely the best time to build muscle and strength, what happens to your body if you wait until your thirties to start, and why this matters just as much for your mind as it does your body. I am also calling out the fears that keep you stuck on the cardio machines, the not knowing what to do, the fear of being judged, because spoiler, no one in that gym is watching you as closely as you think. And once we get your head in the right place, I am handing you the exact plan I use with my own clients so you can walk in with dumbbells and zero confusion about what to do. This is the why, the mindset, and the plan, all in one episode. Now go lift something.Key Takeaways:Why your twenties are the best decade to get started in the gymWaiting to lift weights comes at a costThe most common fears talking you out of going to the gymYou don’t need to spend hours in the gym to see resultsThe simple framework to help you walk in the gym with a planConsistency matters more than intensityHelpful Resources: How to stop spiraling: https://jessdiamondcoaching.com/spiral/ Let’s chat: https://calendly.com/coach_jessdiamond/success Email me: coach.jessdiamond@gmail.comContribute to an episode: https://forms.gle/QwvBrZFbZXRdCjQv9 Be a Guest: https://forms.gle/oiLVCbrydjzaK5pq5 Music: Hide and Seek by Free Music https://soundcloud.com/fm_freemusic Music Promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons/Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

This episode breaks down why being picky is not a bad thing and how this doesn’t only apply to dating. The truth is your friendships, career, and relationship with yourself all deserve the same level of discernment. This episode is about learning to communicate your needs, noticing when something never fully feels right, and giving yourself permission to walk away even when nothing is “that bad.” Because you’re not too picky.. you just have high standards, and honoring them will make your life a whole lot healthier.Key Takeaways:Being “too picky” is usually just another way of saying you finally have standardsIf someone consistently leaves you feeling drained, confused, anxious, or disappointed, it’s time to walk awayHow someone shows up early on is who they areThe wrong someone is not better than no oneHelpful Resources: Let’s chat: https://calendly.com/coach_jessdiamond/success Email me: coach.jessdiamond@gmail.com3 Ways to maximize your 5-9 after your 9-5: https://jessdiamondcoaching.com/maximize Contribute to an episode: https://forms.gle/QwvBrZFbZXRdCjQv9 Be a Guest: https://forms.gle/oiLVCbrydjzaK5pq5 Music: Hide and Seek by Free Music https://soundcloud.com/fm_freemusic Music Promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons/Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest money myths twenty-somethings fall for: the idea that more money will magically fix your financial stress. The truth is that most of us go from living within our parents’ means to suddenly trying to replicate that same lifestyle on an entry-level salary. I walk you through why side hustles and second jobs are usually just bandaid solutions, how more income actually magnifies your spending habits, and what it looks like to finally live within your means instead of someone else’s. If you feel like you’re scraping by and don’t want to give up all of your favorite things, then this episode is for you.Key Takeaways:If your spending isn’t intentional now, a bigger paycheck will only magnify what’s already happeningYou need to know your real monthly expenses—rent, utilities, groceries, subscriptions, everythingChoose 3–5 things you’re unwilling to give up, and allocate money toward them intentionally instead of impulsivelyYour early twenties are financially unfair.When you build a realistic foundation that matches your income, that’s when making more money actually starts to help.Helpful Resources: Let’s chat: https://calendly.com/coach_jessdiamond/success Email me: coach.jessdiamond@gmail.com3 Ways to maximize your 5-9 after your 9-5: https://jessdiamondcoaching.com/maximize Contribute to an episode: https://forms.gle/QwvBrZFbZXRdCjQv9 Be a Guest: https://forms.gle/oiLVCbrydjzaK5pq5 Music: Hide and Seek by Free Music https://soundcloud.com/fm_freemusic Music Promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons/Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

This episode guides you through a real rewind and reflection of my 2025 — the wins, the hard stuff, and how I’m using both to set more intentional goals for 2026. I share some of my biggest highlights, most painful losses, and help you pause, reflect on your own, and actually celebrate what you’ve done instead of brushing it off. I also walk you through how I’m setting goals for 2026 and share some pretty exciting announcements about what’s coming next (including my first ever TEDx Talk). My hope is that this episode helps you reflect with honesty, get clear on what you want, and feel excited about the version of you you’re walking into this year.Key Takeaways:Walking away doesn’t mean you failedWhy you need to look back before you can look aheadWhere most people mess up when setting new years resolutionsThe different types of reflectionsHow to set yourself up for the year aheadHelpful Resources: Let’s chat: https://calendly.com/coach_jessdiamond/success Email me: coach.jessdiamond@gmail.com3 Ways to maximize your 5-9 after your 9-5: https://jessdiamondcoaching.com/maximize Contribute to an episode: https://forms.gle/QwvBrZFbZXRdCjQv9 Be a Guest: https://forms.gle/oiLVCbrydjzaK5pq5 Music: Hide and Seek by Free Music https://soundcloud.com/fm_freemusic Music Promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons/Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US
