Ruts are normal, but they don’t have to stick. You can break free, and it often doesn’t take much to get started! Let’s take a look at 3 of the best ways to do it...1. Revisit your rootsWe all forget why we started sometimes — it’s normal. It’s even healthy — when we look back on the beginning of the journey, we realize how far we’ve come and whether we’re still aligned with our intentions. Ask how your goals and priorities have changed, and get super clear on what drives them. Then you can look at your current trajectory and see where you’ve been consistent (and where you haven’t). This makes it much simpler to find your motivation again and press forward with more excitement and energy than you’ve had in ages!

The fitness industry has a dark secret hidden behind promises of quick-fix results and unattainable goals.It keeps women jumping from diet to diet, always starting something new and then bouncing back, even when they know deep down that nothing is going to change.The end result is that you can try going on keto, low-fat, intermittent fasting, whatever the latest trend is… And still be pulled into yet another program making the same promises, using a different type of restriction.Typically, it also comes with the promise of absurdly fast results, and it’s so cleverly designed that even if you never see lasting results after doing everything right, it’s nearly impossible to resist coming back over and trying again…No matter how frustrating or difficult it becomes!These companies pull women in by using complicated systems that only work under extremely specific circumstances.Keto is a perfect example: Ketosis only kicks in when carbs are almost completely absent from your body… And at the moment you reintroduce carbs to your diet, this fat-burning mechanism grinds to a halt.Intermittent fasting relies on avoiding all food except for within a very specific window of time. But outside of that time, you may be constantly battling hunger and fatigue until you’re even allowed a snack.While some women have the time and willpower to get everything absolutely perfect, this lifestyle isn’t realistic for the vast majority of women. Plus, it’ll make you miserable faster than you can say “low cal”!If you understand this secret and how it’s designed to keep you hooked on programs that never work, you can take back control and turn the tables on these unrealistic and unsustainable diets forever.I can attest to this… I was on brutally restrictive plans in my competition days, and once I discovered why I could never see the results I wanted unless I put my body through hell, everything clicked into place.Since then and for the past 7 years, I’ve worked out about 3-5 days a week, eating a sustainable and enjoyable diet that allows me to stay toned year-round without the ups and downs most nutrition plans are infamous for.I’ve never looked back since. Restrictive diets don’t work, plain and simple — look at what happens with those “success stories” months or years later and that will be abundantly clear.I can show you the same step-by-step process over 8,138 women have used and continue to use right now to make and KEEP progress they never found with any restrictive diets!

More sessions, not longer ones If you want to increase your cardio and it’s actually going to help you move toward your goals (i.e. you’re not overdoing it), don’t just extend your sessions — you’ll benefit more from distributing it more evenly over extra sessions. This helps mitigate against fatigue as long cardio workouts drain a ton of energy. By distributing the same total amount of cardio across more days of the week, you’ll typically notice more consistent energy levels and be able to enjoy life more in general! So don’t be tempted to go through it all at once.

Most women think getting in shape is a battle with food or workouts… but the real battle is with momentum, identity, and emotional discipline. In this episode, Nikkiey breaks down the truth behind her viral carousel: why getting in shape is slow, why falling out of shape happens fast, and why 40% of your success comes down to learning how to manage your emotions. She unpacks why so many women sabotage themselves when life gets busy, why treating fitness like a “phase” keeps you stuck, and how to finally build a lifestyle where results become inevitable. If you’ve been inconsistent, overwhelmed, or frustrated — this episode will hit you in the soul.
In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey brings together her most valuable insights on New Year’s resolutions, self-trust, and what it really means to keep the promises you make to yourself. This mash-up conversation breaks down why so many resolutions fade — and how to create change that actually lasts. From building habits you can live with to redefining discipline as self-respect, this episode will help you strengthen your follow-through, rebuild confidence with yourself, and step into the version of you who shows up — long after the New Year motivation fades. If you’re ready to stop quitting on yourself and start creating real momentum, this one’s for you

In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey breaks down what it really takes to build momentum going into 2026 — and why it has nothing to do with motivation or trying to change everything at once. Real momentum comes from alignment, self-trust, and consistent action…especially when things feel uncertain or uncomfortable. You’ll learn why so many women lose steam after a few weeks, how fitness becomes the training ground for discipline and confidence, and the simple three-step process to create lasting momentum: get clear on what you want, pair vision with action, and release control while staying consistent. If you’re ready to stop restarting and finally follow through on the promises you make to yourself, this episode will help you simplify, align, and move into the new year with real momentum.
In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey Stott steps beyond macros and workouts to share the real reason why WarriorBabe exists. This conversation is for the woman who feels stuck despite doing everything “right.” Nikkiey breaks down why the issue was never discipline or weight loss—but quick fixes, extremes, and a lack of understanding around how the body actually works. She explains why learning to work with your body changes everything, and how real progress comes from sustainable habits, not perfection. This episode also shares the bigger vision behind WarriorBabe: breaking generational patterns around food, fitness, and self-worth to create lasting, life-changing health.
In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey Stott explains why so many women quit their fitness journey right before results are about to happen. She breaks down the often-misunderstood middle phase of transformation—the stage where progress feels slow, uncomfortable, and unclear, even though important changes are happening beneath the surface. From internal fat loss and hormonal shifts to rebuilding trust with food, Nikkiey explains why a stalled scale doesn’t mean things aren’t working. If you’ve ever felt tempted to start over because results weren’t showing fast enough, this episode will help you stay consistent, trust the process, and keep moving forward—because finishing is what creates real change.
In this transformative episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey Stott breaks down one of the most powerful truths every woman needs to hear: your body is not broken — it’s brilliantly responding to the way you treat it. Through science, mindset shifts, and tough-love coaching, Nikkiey explains how years of stress, under-eating, and over-training keep the body in survival mode — and how to rebuild trust, safety, and strength again. This episode will help women stop fighting their bodies, start listening to their signals, and finally create the internal environment their metabolism wants to thrive in. Because your body isn’t your enemy — it’s your greatest ally.
In this episode of The Macro Hour, host Nikkiey Stott tackles one of the hardest seasons for women who are working on their goals: the holidays. Instead of treating November and December like a “write-off” or a time to start over later, Nikkiey shows women how to hold their standards, enjoy food and family, and stay in integrity with themselves — without chasing perfection. She breaks down the real pressures around holiday food, family comments, and packed schedules, then teaches how to create simple, non-negotiable habits that keep momentum going even on the busiest days. Finally, she dives into the deeper work: identity. Who are you when life gets loud? The woman who abandons herself… or the woman who keeps her power no matter what the calendar looks like? This episode is for the woman who refuses to let the holidays erase her progress — and is ready to become the kind of woman who keeps her word to herself all year long.
This episode calls out the one thing holding most women back: excuses. Not lack of time. Not lack of motivation. Excuses. Nikkiey walks listeners through the real consequences of not finishing what you start, saying yes to everything, and constantly breaking promises to yourself. She teaches how excuses erode self-trust, weaken your character, and block your ability to grow spiritually, mentally, and physically. If you’ve been stuck in the “start-stop-start again” cycle… this episode is the permission slip and calling you’ve been waiting for.
