In this episode, I’m talking about something I don’t hear enough women thinking about intentionally: their future self.

This idea came to me during a quiet moment — and the more I sat with it, the more I realized how much clarity it brings to everything we’re trying to change. Our habits. Our relationship with food. Our health. Our confidence. And the way we show up in our lives.

So often, women come to me knowing exactly what they don’t want anymore.

They don’t want to feel out of control around food. They don’t want to keep starting over. They don’t want to be uncomfortable in their bodies or disappointed in themselves.

But knowing what you don’t want isn’t enough.

In this episode, I walk you through why getting clear on who you’re becoming is one of the most important (and overlooked) parts of sustainable change — especially when it comes to weight loss, follow-through, and feeling truly in control.

P.S. If you love it, it would mean so much if you subscribed, rated, and reviewed!

Have you ever promised yourself you were going to eat differently… and then found yourself doing the exact opposite, almost on autopilot?

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the quiet, sneaky thoughts that derail our best intentions — the ones that sound reasonable, logical, and even responsible in the moment. The problem? They’re often not true at all.

I wanted this conversation to be powerful and fun. Because getting healthier, stronger, and more confident doesn’t have to feel heavy or punishing. In fact, when you can start noticing these thoughts — and even laughing at them — everything changes.

We’re talking about the primitive brain, food noise, and why so many women feel like they’re constantly negotiating with themselves around eating. I share real-life examples from my own brain, my clients’ brains, and everyday situations like travel, social events, family gatherings, and evenings at home when willpower feels mysteriously low.

What I really want you to hear in this episode is this:
You are not broken. You are not weak. And you are definitely not alone.
Your brain is simply doing what it was designed to do — and once you see that clearly, you can stop being controlled by it.

If you’ve been eating better, moving more, trying to stay consistent… but you’re still not seeing progress, this episode is for you.

Instead of focusing on diet tricks or quick fixes, I’m talking about what matters most when it comes to real, lasting weight loss:

✨ mindset
✨ honesty
✨ emotional patterns
✨ sustainable habits
✨ and learning how to measure progress beyond a number

I share the most common hidden reasons women feel stuck, the mental shifts that create long-term change, and how to stop letting the scale control your mood, confidence, or motivation.

This conversation will help you feel clearer, more empowered, and ready to keep going — without falling back into restrictive dieting.

If you’ve ever thought…

• “Why isn’t this working?”
• “What am I missing?”
• “Shouldn’t the scale be moving by now?”

…you’re going to want to listen to this one all the way through.

I’m talking about something that can completely change the way you approach weight loss, movement, habits, and even your mindset:

Pleasure. Fun.
Not the “vacation” kind… the kind you’re choosing on an average Tuesday.

Most women don’t associate pleasure with what it takes to reach their goals. They associate change with:

• hard
• exhausting
• restrictive
• frustrating

And that disconnect is exactly why so many women feel stuck.

✨ Why this topic matters

Here’s the truth:

On an average Tuesday, you’re choosing pleasure all day long.

And the pleasure you’re choosing might be:

• helping you build the body + life you want
  OR
• quietly keeping you stuck

The goal of this episode is to help you see those choices clearly, and learn how to redefine pleasure so your goals start feeling exciting again.

In this episode, I’m sharing one of my favorite book recommendations: The Gap and the Gain by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy.

The big idea is simple: the way I measure my progress determines how happy I feel. If I measure myself against where I want to be, I create frustration and “not enough” energy (the gap). If I measure myself against how far I’ve already come, I build confidence, momentum, and pride (the gain).

I explain how this shows up in real life, with weight loss and health goals, where people can overlook major wins just because the scale didn’t move. But also in every area of life.

When you focus on what's missing, you create misery; when you focus on how far you've come, you gain momentum.

In this episode, I talk about why weight loss does matter—and why we’re allowed to want it.

I share my own story of being stuck in an exhausting on-and-off cycle with food, dieting, and shame, and how everything changed when I learned to lose weight sustainably.

I explain why weight loss is transformative when you fix the real problem behind overeating, and what life looks like on the other side: feeling confident, peaceful, sexy, and free from obsessing about food and your body.

This episode is for women who know they want more—for their body, their mindset, and their life—and are ready to stop quitting on themselves and go all in.

In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with one of my clients and friends, Katie, to have an honest, real conversation about food, midlife, menopause, mindset, and what it actually takes to create lasting change.

Katie had been listening to this podcast for a long time before we worked together. She understood the concepts intellectually. She wanted things to change. But like so many women, she found herself stuck in the cycle of trying hard, tightening down, losing control, and then blaming herself.

In this episode, we talk about what finally shifted.

Katie shares what it felt like to go from feeling helpless around food to feeling calm, grounded, and in control—without dieting, restriction, or perfection. We talk openly about menopause, inflammation, exercise no longer “working” the way it used to, and the cultural story that midlife weight gain is inevitable.

We also dive into something bigger than weight loss.

Katie explains how learning to manage her thoughts—not just her food—changed how she shows up with her kids, her husband, her work, and even her aging parents. One of my favorite moments in this conversation is when she shares how the mindset tools we use helped her respond differently to everyday stress instead of numbing out with food.

We also have an honest conversation about using GLP-1 medications as a tool. Katie shares why she chose to use them, the stigma she felt, and why mindset work is still essential if you want the results to last—whether you’re on medication or not.

If you’ve ever:

• Felt like you should be able to do this by now
• Wondered why what worked in your 30s and 40s no longer works
• Felt stuck consuming information but not creating real change
• Or worried that focusing on food might negatively impact your kids

…this episode is for you.

Katie’s story is a reminder that you’re not broken—and that real freedom around food is possible at any age when you stop relying on willpower and start changing how you think.

Save your spot in my next Free Webinar ( Your Year of Change) HERE.

In today’s episode, I walk you through one of my favorite end-of-year practices: asking what is truly possible for you in 2026. This isn’t about surface-level goals or New Year’s resolutions that fade by February. This is about intentionally creating your life—your body, your habits, your mindset, and the woman you are becoming.

I share powerful reflection questions to help you move from consuming information to actually creating change. We talk about how you want to feel in 2026, what you want to create in your body, health, relationships, money, and life, and who you need to become to make those things real. I also explain why big goals matter—not because you must hit them perfectly, but because of the confidence and self-trust you build along the way.

You’ll learn:

• Why focusing on feelings (not just outcomes) creates sustainable change
• How to think bigger than your past results
• The importance of identity, beliefs, and daily intention
• How choosing a Word of the Year can anchor your growth
• Why allowing discomfort is part of real transformation

If you want 2026 to be the year you stop starting over and start living intentionally, this episode is for you.
