✨ Sunday Shift: The Fuel Underneath (the part I promised you 😉)
Happy Sunday shift day, friends! 🌿 Last week I left you with a little teaser... "the fuel underneath, more on this soon, it's a whole thing." This is the whole thing. 😉 🌟 1) Extrinsic motivation isn't the villain. Most of a healthy life runs on it, and that's completely okay. 🌟 2) A goal isn't the enemy. A number isn't the enemy. The question is just the fuel underneath... is it yours, or is it a should? ✨ TWO OPTIONS: Choose YOUR Adventure ──────────────────────────── ✅ OPTION 1: Self-Led Shift Set your own shift for the week ──────────────────────────── Pick one shift for this week and post it below with #shift. Use Good / Better / Best so it flexes with your real life: 🟢 Good = your hardest-week version. If you wouldn't do it on your very worst week, it's still too big. Take it down. 🟡 Better = your average week. 🔵 Best = everything-aligned, stretch version. Same shift, three levels of showing up. Nothing to fall off. Want a hand shaping it? The Sunday Shift prompt tool is here: https://shiftpmos.com/sunday-shift-prompt 🔎 Not sure what to pick? Just drop one word below and we'll help you shape it. ──────────────────────────── ✅ OPTION 2: Reflect With Us The deeper layer, continued ──────────────────────────── Hi friends, Affirmation of the week: "My goals get to run on my own fuel." So here's where my brain went after last week. We love to sort motivation into good and bad. Intrinsic good, extrinsic bad. But that's not really it. Extrinsic isn't the villain. Most of healthy life runs on it. There are actually two different questions we tend to mash together: First, the WHY. Are you doing the thing for the thing itself (intrinsic), or for an outcome (extrinsic)? That one's just descriptive. Neither is better. Second, and this is the one that actually matters... is it autonomous (yours, chosen, lines up with what you value) or is it controlled (a should, guilt, someone's approval, fear)? Autonomous fuel energizes you. Controlled fuel drains you... even when the goal is "right" on paper.

Used the PCOS Lab Check-list and it worked! 🥳
Hope this can inspire other members to do the same! This community has given me the courage to ask some specific lab prescriptions to a doctor! I was really nervous because it was a first time in my life where I was a bit more ACTIVE in my health, and asked something instead of just accepting what was given to me. The doctor didn't want to give me all the lab work I wanted from the PCOS Lab Checklist, but I got a few! Every one of them is a win. I cannot express enough my gratitude towards Dr Mélanie DesChâtelets for this. You changed my life. Thank you so much 🫶

✨️ Mel's Sunday Shift week of JUN 14
🧠 Reflection I'm continuing on this goal of creating more levity and humor. And I did something this week I'm excited about. I created three YT playlists for myself based on length of time. Less than fifteen minutes, fifteen to thirty minutes, or greater than thirty minutes. Because a lot of times it's that... I know what I like, but it's close to bedtime, and I'm quite diligent about going to bed on time. So I'm like, oh, I don't have time. Most days I don't have time for entertainment screen time. So now I can sort by how much time I have. And it's funny stuff there. I watched one. I'm excited because I've just reduced the friction and made it a bit more accessible. I also want to celebrate a win. My three-year-old learned how to ride his two-wheeler without training wheels last weekend. And this weekend, he rode it to soccer. It just filled my cup. Mostly because, as much as we try to incorporate movement with toddlers, those of you with toddlers know they move at an exploratory speed that is not exercise. Every step is a very slow step. And that changed on a dime, because now I'm jogging next to this little bike. So it's just super cute. I can see wanting to do these bike jogs all summer long. And I want to share a specific situation I thought was hilarious. My husband and I have a recurring date with our babysitter, which means we now have a date night once a month. Our date night was at a restaurant, and there were three kids who were quite loud at the table next to us. Honestly, that didn't really bother us at all. But we overheard the parents kind of talk to their children, in other words, simmer down, this couple is trying to have a romantic dinner. We thought it was pretty hilarious. And as they were leaving, and we were kind of leaving at the same time, they apologized for all of the noise they had created. Which, honestly, we still weren't complaining about. But they were self-conscious about it. The hilarious part is that when one of the sisters was paying the bill, the other sister was like, oh, tell me how much I owe. And she said, no, no, you can just thank Ken, because Ken is paying the bill. So as they're apologizing for being quite loud, my husband asks how we could have access to some kind of Ken money too. And then they just started laughing, because we had assumed Ken was her husband, but Ken is apparently an ex. It was just hilarious.
