Summary
Can celebrating small wins really power you toward your big fitness goals? Today, I’m breaking down why these little victories—like squeezing in an extra rep or going slightly heavier—are essential for motivation and lasting progress. Using tools like the Movement With Julie app to track your progress can make it even more rewarding to see how far you’ve come.
And let’s not forget recovery: the Oura Ring is perfect for keeping tabs on health metrics like heart rate variability, which helps signal when rest is needed. Embrace every small triumph, and remember, true confidence comes from showing up authentically.

| 0:00.0 | Hey, hey, beautiful human. Can I steal five minutes of your time? I have something super important to share with you, but I promise I'll be really quick. You're listening to my weekly bonus episode of Embrace Your Real with me, Julie Labbetter. I'm about to give you a quick tip for building your confidence, honoring your body, and unconditionally loving your authentic self. Stay tuned. If you're ready to embrace a real, let's get it. |
| 0:22.5 | Let's go. |
| 0:32.5 | Hello and welcome back to another bonus episode. |
| 0:35.7 | We are going to be diving into small wins again this week. |
| 0:39.2 | Last week, I really chatted about all the benefits of small wins. And in today's episode, |
| 0:43.8 | like I mentioned last week, I'm going to be talking about what small wins actually look like |
| 0:48.3 | so that we can start to actually celebrate them. So let's quickly do a recap of last week's bonus episode. If you haven't |
| 0:55.4 | tuned into that, I will go ahead and link it in the show notes so that you can tune into |
| 0:58.6 | that after this episode. But I talked essentially about what if we, instead of obsessing about |
| 1:04.5 | the end result, what if we started to obsess about the small wins along the way? Like the small |
| 1:09.8 | moments of progress that might seem |
| 1:12.1 | insignificant at first, but actually matter more than you realize. And here are the five key |
| 1:16.9 | ways that small wins matter. First, small wins keep your motivation and discipline revving, |
| 1:22.1 | giving you those weekly boosts that make the journey feel exciting instead of overwhelming. |
| 1:27.3 | Second, small wins really do build momentum. |
| 1:30.2 | Each little win is a step that fuels the next, giving you that kind of snowball effect |
| 1:34.8 | that keeps you pushing forward even without those instant results. |
| 1:38.6 | The third, small wins really help you to truly enjoy the journey rather than feeling |
| 1:43.0 | like you're endlessly chasing this |
| 1:44.8 | big distant goal. And instead, you're finding joy in each workout. You're finding joy in |
| 1:49.8 | eating healthy. You're finding joy in each step moving forward. Number four, small wins take |
| 1:55.7 | the pressure off. So by celebrating the progress in the moment, you really avoid the burnout in extreme measures, keeping your journey healthy and sustainable. |
