Healthy Habits Challenge – Week 1: Fresh Start & Your “Why”

Welcome to Week 1 of our challenge — and if you’re here, I’m really glad you are.

This week isn’t about meal plans, workouts, or doing everything “right.”
It’s about something much simpler—and much more important.

Your Why

Most of us already know what we “should” do.
Eat better. Move more. Drink more water. Go to bed earlier.

The hard part isn’t the what.
It’s remembering why we want to do it—especially on the days when motivation is low, life is busy, or starting feels harder than skipping.

Your “why” doesn’t have to be dramatic or perfect. It doesn’t need to impress anyone.

It might be:

  • To feel better in your body
  • To have more energy
  • To be healthier long-term
  • To feel more confident
  • To show up better for yourself or the people you love

Or it might simply be: “I’m tired of starting over, and I want something that actually sticks.”

Every reason counts.

One Small Habit

Once you’ve written down your “why,” choose one small habit you want to practice this week.

Not ten.
Not a full lifestyle overhaul.
Just one.

This is about practice, not perfection.

Your habit could be:

  • Drinking more water
  • Taking a short daily walk
  • Tracking meals
  • Journaling
  • Going to bed a little earlier
  • Adding protein to breakfast

Pick something realistic—something you can show up for even on an average, imperfect day.

This Week’s Challenge

📝 Write down:

  1. Your why
  2. One habit you want to practice this week

That’s it.

No pressure to do it perfectly.
No pressure to never miss a day.
Just commit to showing up and trying.

If you’re comfortable, share your “why” and your habit with the group. There’s something powerful about saying it out loud—and you never know who you might encourage just by being honest.

This is your fresh start. Not because it’s a new week…
…but because you decided to begin again.

You’re already doing the hardest part: showing up 💛
