Mindset Lounge Method (nutrition, training & habit coaching)
If you’re heading into 2026 wanting more clarity, confidence, and ownership over your life, this episode will help you reset the way you think so your actions can finally match who you want to become.
We cover:
- Taking action
- Why you shouldn't avoid discomfort
- Chasing the highest version of you
- Why the stories you tell yourself shape your reality
Confidence isn’t something you’re born with.
And it definitely isn’t something you get from how you look.
In this episode, I sit down with mindset coach Tijana Bundalow to unpack what confidence and self worth actually come from and why so many women feel like they’re “doing everything right” but still don’t trust themselves.
Tijana shares her deeply personal story of shame, self-abandonment, and rebuilding herself from the ground up, and we break down what it really means to become a woman you believe in.
We talk about:
• Why confidence is built through self-trust, not self-care
• How integrity shapes your self-worth when no one is watching
• The difference between force and devotion when building discipline
• Why setting boundaries with yourself matters more than setting them with others
• How women lose themselves in relationships and how to rebuild your foundation
• The small, daily decisions that quietly shape your identity.
This conversation is raw, honest, and deeply grounding.
If you’ve ever felt disconnected from yourself, struggled with confidence, or felt like you’ve lost your sense of identity, this episode will meet you exactly where you are.

In today’s episode, I sit down with coach George Montagné for a full muscle building masterclass.We break down everything you need to know about building glutes, training with intention and developing the mindset that actually creates long term results.

After four weeks away to focus on competing, I’m back and sharing a real recap of my New Zealand and Japan Pro shows. This episode isn’t about placings or physiques. It’s about presence, alignment and what happens when you remove the pressure and come back to your values. I talk through the dip after placing last in NZ, how I grounded myself again and why this season ended up feeling calm, content and meaningful. If you’ve ever questioned your path, tied your worth to an outcome or felt out of alignment, this one will give you a fresh perspective. Regular episodes are back from here and I’m excited to dive into this next chapter with you.

In this episode, hybrid athlete Annabelle Ronnfeldt breaks down how she built both her running base and her strength base, why she avoids the zero-to-one-hundred trap, and the mindset that gets her through the hurt locker: “time doesn’t stop—keep moving.”
We talk identity shifts (team sport → endurance → hybrid), using community to lower the pain of hard sessions, shifting from body image to performance, and the season where stress and health markers crashed, hair loss, fatigue, inflammation, and how she rebuilt with better boundaries, help, and intuition.
