The holidays have a way of shining a light on what—and who—truly matters. As we head into this season, I’ve been thinking a lot about support… the real kind. The kind that lifts you up, not quietly pulls you back down.
When someone decides to get healthier, most people cheer them on. They see your effort, your energy, your intention—and they celebrate it. Sometimes your consistency even inspires quiet changes in others. You don’t need to preach a word; your actions do the talking.
But not everyone reacts that way.
I’ve seen spouses, friends, even coworkers struggle with someone else’s positive momentum. It’s rarely malicious. Most of the time, it’s subconscious—your growth shines a light on areas they’re not ready to face. That discomfort can show up as doubt, sarcasm, subtle interference, or insecurity. In some cases, I’ve even seen partners fear losing the person they love once they get in shape.
And it breaks my heart.
Your health, your future, your well-being—they belong to you. Protect your progress. Set boundaries that are firm but kind. Keep moving toward the life you want, regardless of who understands the journey.
Most importantly: find your people.
Find the ones who celebrate your wins, walk beside you, and lift you higher. Those who aren’t threatened by your growth—but encouraged by it.
In the picture I’ll include, you’ll see one of my people—my wife—someone who supports my health and fitness every day. I’m grateful for her… and I’m grateful for youfor reading this. Your presence here means more than you know.
Here’s to surrounding ourselves with the right people this holiday season—and every season after. 🌟
