Breaking Cycles: Xbox Habits, Atomic Habits, and Fitness

In this episode, I share a personal story about breaking my Xbox 360 gaming habit as a teenager and how it mirrors principles from James Clear’s Atomic Habits. By reshaping my environment, I learned to break a bad habit effortlessly—a lesson I now apply as a fitness coach. Discover how these strategies can help you build better fitness habits, remove bad ones, and take control of your environment to reach your goals.
