Golden Habits Challenge
There are only 10 weeks left in 2025, we’re going to clean up your lifestyle, boost your energy and clear your head so it doesn’t finish like every other year. Most people get to Thanksgiving and overindulge until Christmas- then get to the New Year and say ‘Why do I do that every year- I’m going to start this year off better’ only to fall into the same routine the next year. What if we make a change together now- before the year comes to an end and change the cycle?!
If you really want to change your life, you have to start by changing your habits. You become the things that you do. We want you to improve your life by doing the RIGHT things without thinking about them.
And we’re going to do it together. Because change is hard, we’re going to support you with coaching and a peer group like only RSC can.
This is the Golden Habits Challenge:
0 Alcohol
60 minutes of movement daily.
7-9 hours of Sleep
Fruit or Veggie at every meal
None of these habits are easy. The first few days figuring out how to get a fruit or veg in every time you eat are going to be a challenge. Not drinking on Friday and Saturday nights are going to be a challenge. And that’s why we’re going through it together. We can leverage the power of the group for accountability.
The biggest barrier to success will be in your own head. To help, we’ve added a price and a prize.
First, the challenge costs $99. The price is there to get you coaching, but mostly to hold you accountable. It’s just barely costly enough for you to take it seriously. But you can do it: bet on yourself.
Second, tracking. You’re going to record your success every day on a simple pen-and-ink tracking sheet. You’ll post this on your refrigerator or somewhere else in your home.
Third, the prize: a Golden RSC Shirt. You can’t buy these: you have to earn them. You earn one by hitting 90% compliance (or 108 checked boxes) on your tracking sheet.
Fourth, the future: at the end of the challenge, you’ll sit down with your coach, look at your Habits tracking, and get your next steps.
FAQ
When does this run?
November 3rd- December 13th, 2025.
What results should I see by the end?
You’re probably going to lose a couple of pounds. You’ll definitely feel sharper. And you’ll gain resilience: you’ll have made it through something tough.But more importantly, you’ll have a running start at a habit that you might keep forever. When I gave up alcohol almost 9 years ago, it felt like a big sacrifice to say “no” to wine at dinners out. But that was a long time ago. Now it’s easier for me to keep my weight consistent and I don’t have to give up performance in the gym or a nights sleep.
You don’t have to commit to giving up alcohol and treats forever. But if you do it for a few weeks between Halloween and Christmas, you’ll be through the worst part, and then you can decide what to do next. Diets aren’t sustainable; that’s why they don’t work. Habits are sustainable forever.
What support will we get?
You’ll get daily tips and knowledge through a private Facebook group. You’ll also get coaching support, and accountability from other challenge participants.
