in this week’s solo episode, we’re getting real about motivation vs discipline, not in a “work harder” way, but in an understand yourself better way. most people think they’re inconsistent or unmotivated, when really, they’ve just been taught the wrong things about how change actually works.

we talk about why motivation fades, why discipline isn’t a personality trait you magically wake up with, and how self-trust, structure, and small follow-through moments shape your growth more than any morning routine ever could. this conversation is here to take the pressure off, not add more to your plate, especially if you’ve been wondering whether you’re behind, doing something wrong, or losing momentum.

if you’re navigating modern self-development, mindset shifts, or just trying to show up for yourself in a way that feels sustainable, honest, and real, this episode will feel like a deep breath you didn’t know you needed.

in this episode of she’s probably talking to other guys, annie sits down with a friend and experienced fitness coach to talk about why self-coaching has limits and why coaching isn’t about control, pressure, or being told what to do.

this conversation explores how people approach fitness today, from gym training and crossfit-style functional training to online workouts, social media fitness, and workout apps. we talk about why access to information doesn’t always equal clarity, how fitness coaching provides structure and accountability, and where motivation, discipline, and consistency actually come from over time.

rather than focusing on specific workout routines, this episode looks at the bigger picture: decision-making, long-term fitness, strength training, group training environments, and how coached workouts can help people avoid burnout, injury, and constant second-guessing. we also touch on personal training, gym culture, and how different fitness spaces from crossfit gyms to boutique studios and big commercial gyms, shape the way people think about progress.

if you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward with your fitness, this episode offers a grounded perspective on when self-coaching works, when it doesn’t, and how the right kind of guidance can make fitness feel more sustainable and supportive.

January shows up with a lot of expectations. New habits. New routines. A clearer version of yourself. And somehow, everyone else seems like they got the memo.

In this solo episode, I’m unpacking the assumption that January is supposed to feel like a clean slate — and what it actually feels like when you’re still tired, still processing, still figuring things out.

We’re talking about:
• why January pressure feels so loud
• the quiet guilt of not “reinventing” yourself fast enough
• how comparison sneaks in right when you’re most vulnerable
• and what it looks like to move forward without forcing a reset

This isn’t a motivation speech. It’s a conversation for anyone who entered the new year feeling more human than healed.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re behind — or if January just isn’t doing what it promised — this one’s for you.

🎧 New season. Same honesty.

Welcome to Season Two of She’s Probably Talking to Other Guys (SPTTOG) by The Banannie Diaries by Annie

Season Two of She’s Probably Talking to Other Guys is about assumptions — the quiet ones, the obvious ones, and the ones we don’t notice until they’re already shaping our choices.

This season explores dating, work, confidence, money, creativity, and more...and what it actually feels like to navigate life through all of it. Some episodes are solo reflections. Others are conversations with people who’ve lived very different versions of the assumptions made about them.

There are no perfect answers here — just conversations that leave room to question the rumors we’ve heard about ourselves and others, and how those ideas influence the way we move through the world.

🎧 New episodes drop Wednesdays. Listen as early as 5am and follow She’s Probably Talking to Other Guys to stay in the conversation.

In this crossover episode of She’s Probably Talking To Other Guys and Take Care by Ry, Annie of The Banannie Diariesand Rylin come together for an honest, grounded conversation about growth without pressure. This isn’t a “new year, new me” episode..it’s a reminder that growth doesn’t need a deadline.

While putting together vision boards, we talk through the assumptions around manifesting, new year motivation, and the pressure to reinvent yourself at the start of the year. We unpack why intention doesn’t need urgency, why vision boards are tools for clarity rather than control, and how personal growth can unfold without a rigid timeline.

This episode is for anyone feeling overwhelmed by new year expectations or tired of hustle-driven goal setting. It’s about choosing care over pressure, letting growth be quiet, and entering the year without forcing change.

A shared conversation between two podcasts rooted in honesty, self-trust, and taking care; reminding you that you’re allowed to continue as you are, and that growth doesn’t need a deadline.

The holidays can bring a lot of feelings — joy, stress, grief, pressure, or all of the above. In this episode of *She’s Probably Talking to Other Guys*, I’m talking about what it really looks like to get through the holidays with your boundaries intact, your nervous system protected, and your cup gently refilled.

We’re unpacking the idea that you don’t owe anyone a perfect holiday version of yourself. I talk about setting boundaries during the holidays, choosing rest without guilt, opting out of traditions that don’t serve you anymore, and redefining what “celebrating” even means. Whether you’re spending the holidays with family, alone, working, traveling, or just trying to survive the noise, this episode is here to remind you that your needs matter too.

This conversation is about filling your own cup during the holidays — not fixing yourself, not forcing gratitude, and not performing happiness. Just choosing softness, honesty, and care in whatever way feels right for you this season.

If the holidays feel heavy, complicated, or quietly overwhelming, you’re not alone. This episode is a space to breathe, reset, and remind yourself that rest is allowed and boundaries are not selfish.
