Stop Being Like These 6 Types of People If You Want to Get Lean, Fit, and Sculpted in 2025
Break free from self-sabotage. Discover 6 mindset traps keeping you stuck—and how to finally get lean, fit, and sculpted in 2025 on this episode of the Get Sculpted podcast.
Ever feel like you’re doing all the right things… but still not seeing the results you want?
You’re eating mostly “on plan,” getting your workouts in (well, most of them), and you’ve definitely watched your fair share of fitness reels. But something’s not clicking, and deep down, you know it.
In this spicy episode, we’re calling out the six types of women who unintentionally sabotage their own fitness goals and what it takes to finally get that lean, fit, and sculpted look in 2025. Whether you're overanalyzing every step, dipping a toe into your plan (but never committing), or stuck in an all-or-nothing mindset, this episode lays it all out.
We’re not here to judge– we’re here to help you shed the habits and mindset that keep you stuck in your 1.0 version, so you can fully step into the woman who follows through, builds a sculpted body, and shows up consistently, even when life gets messy.
Here’s what we cover:
The six personas that stall progress—and how they show up in your day-to-day
Why being a “know-it-all” or an “overthinker” leads to paralysis by analysis, not results
The truth about toe-dipping – why half-effort equals half-results (if you're lucky)
How to shift out of a fixed mindset and into your 2.0 identity
What it means to build consistent workout habits without burning out
The difference between information overload and real implementation (hint: action wins)
If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of collecting tips but not applying them, constantly “starting over,” or wondering why you’re not seeing that sculpted body you keep pinning to your vision board, this episode is your breakthrough moment.
Your new life will cost you your old one. You can’t become your 2.0 self while clinging to the habits, thoughts, and excuses that kept you stuck.
-Coach Tijana
You don’t need to be perfect. But you do need to be consistent.
You don’t need a new plan. You need to follow the one you have.

The unedited podcast transcript for this episode of the Get Sculpted podcast follows:
TYPE #1: The Know-It-All — Why Knowledge Isn’t Enough for Getting Fit
Tijana [00:02:47]: All right, so number one person you don't want to be is the know it all... [Discussion around how “knowing” all the things and consuming endless fitness information, but refusing to take guidance or truly implement, keeps you from getting results. The takeaway: being coachable is a non-negotiable skill for real transformation.]
TYPE #2: The Overthinker — Paralysis by Analysis vs. Taking Action
Marilynn [00:06:20]: Ooh, the overthinker. So she is obsessed with learning, but never implements. She thinks she needs more information before taking any action... [Hosts talk about the dangers of getting stuck in research mode, “paralysis by analysis,” and why messy, imperfect action is the real key to building your lean body. Action always trumps intention.]
TYPE #3: The Toe Dipper — Why Half-Hearted Effort Gets Half the Results
Marilynn [00:08:17]: Okay. Number three. We're gonna call this the toe dipper. One foot in, one foot out... [Deep dive into the “toe dipper” who follows plans only half-heartedly: skipping small steps, not tracking accurately, or subbing things in/out. The hosts hammer home: “Half effort = half results, and that’s if you’re lucky.”]
TYPE #4: The Fixed Mindset Chip — Stuck Thinking vs. Growth and Change
Tijana [00:11:48]: I absolutely do. So let's talk about this next person who we call the fixed mindset Chip... [Real talk about women who believe their circumstances, discipline, or schedule can’t change — and how those limiting beliefs are just habits of thought (not truth). To evolve your body, you must first evolve your thinking.]
TYPE #5: The All-or-Nothing Girl — Progress Beats Perfection Every Time
Tijana [00:15:41]: Oh, how I resonate with this one. Let me tell you. This is the all or nothing girl... [Hosts discuss how perfectionism leads to on/off cycles and starting over—while the women who succeed are those who know how to course-correct and show up 80% consistently, not just during “perfect” weeks.]
TYPE #6: The Victim — Why Ownership Is Essential for Sculpted Results
Tijana [00:19:57]: All right? So I do feel strongly about all of these, but especially I would say this one, number six, is the victim... [The “victim” blames circumstances—busy schedules, career, family, hormones—but gives away power over what she can control. The team covers taking full ownership and focusing on your sphere of influence as the only true path out.]
Drop Your 1.0 Mindsets if You Want to Build Your 2.0 Self
Tijana [00:23:02]: Yeah, I think, Jord, that was a really excellent point. And at the end of the day, results are gonna come to the people who are not gonna come to the people who keep outsourcing responsibility. They're gonna come to the people who consistently take ownership... [Final thoughts: Transformation demands shedding your old stories and habits. Your new, fit life will cost you your old one—but that’s the upgrade you’ve been waiting for.]Tijana [00:24:16]: See you. Marilynn [00:24:17]: Bye. Tijana [00:24:20]: And that's a wrap for today's episode of Get Sculpted... [Encouragement to subscribe, review, share, and catch next week’s solo episode with more tough love truths no one else will tell you.]
