  • Ep: 38 How Sugar & Alcohol Lie to You
    Dec 3 2025

    Sugar and alcohol promise energy, comfort, and relaxation — but behind the scenes, they disrupt your metabolism, spike cravings, and quietly sabotage weight loss. In this episode of Trim & Timeless, Anna breaks down how these substances affect your brain and body in ways that make it harder to stay consistent, feel in control, and lose the weight you’re working so hard to lose.

    You’ll learn:

    🧠 How sugar and alcohol trigger dopamine surges that train your brain to crave more — making overeating or overdrinking feel automatic.

    🍬 How sugar causes blood-sugar crashes, increased hunger, and stubborn fat storage.

    🍷 Why alcohol disrupts sleep, slows metabolism, and leads to next-day cravings that derail your goals.

    ❤️ Why they feel comforting in the moment but leave you feeling worse physically and emotionally later.

    And those lies are what keep so many of us stuck in cycles of cravings, regret, and extra weight we don’t want to carry.

    You’ll walk away with practical, science-backed insight that empowers you to take back control, lose the weight, feel lighter, and break free from the habits that have been holding you back. And when you can finally see through the lies, you reclaim the power to change your life.

In this episode, Anna unpacks the hidden world of visceral fat—the type of fat stored around your organs that can impact your hormones, energy, and long-term health.

    You’ll learn the difference between the fat you can pinch and the fat you can’t see, why belly fat accumulates (especially as we age), and most importantly, how to reduce it with simple, science-backed strategies that actually work. Anna also shares a personal story about how her perspective on belly fat has shifted—from self-consciousness at the pool to focusing on health over aesthetics.

    If you’ve ever felt frustrated with belly fat or wondered what really works to reduce it, this episode will give you hope, clarity, and a game plan you can feel good about.

  • Ep. 36: From Cookies to Courage: Sara Beggs on Transforming Health and Life
    Jul 22 2025

    What starts with a cookie can lead to a complete life transformation.

    In this powerful episode, I sit down with my client, businesswoman, and life coach Sara Beggs. When Sara first came to me, her goal wasn’t weight loss—she wanted to address her eating habits and improve her health after receiving a prediabetic HbA1c result of 5.9%. Chocolate chip cookies were her kryptonite, but Sara was ready for change.

    Through our coaching journey, Sara not only brought her HbA1c down to a healthy 5.4%—she also lost 10 pounds (an unexpected and welcome bonus). But what surprised her most was how the process of addressing her physical habits unlocked a deeper, more courageous version of herself. As she broke through excuses around food, she also confronted long-ignored emotional and spiritual patterns. Today, she’s showing up bolder in every area of life. As they say, “A rising tide lifts all boats.”

    If you’ve ever felt that small shifts can’t lead to big change, this episode is for you. Sara’s story is a beautiful reminder that caring for your body can awaken something powerful within.

    Apr 15 2025

    You’ve probably heard of Ozempic, Wegovy, and other popular weight-loss drugs making headlines—but what if I told you that your body already produces the same powerful hormone these medications are designed to mimic?

  • Ep. 31: Why You Need a Coach
    Feb 11 2025

    In this episode, I’m diving into a game-changer for reaching your weight loss and health goals: coaching.

    Have you ever felt like your journey to success is full of detours, setbacks, and frustrating plateaus? I’ve been there too—losing and regaining the same 10-15 lbs over and over again. But when I finally hired a coach, everything changed. I lost 25 lbs and, more importantly, kept it off.

    A coach isn’t just someone who gives advice—they’re a guide, a cheerleader, and sometimes that tough-love voice that helps you see what you’re missing. They help you:

    ✔ Cut out the guesswork and take the fastest route to success

    ✔ Spot blind spots and self-sabotaging habits

    ✔ Stay accountable and push through when motivation fades

    ✔ Believe in yourself—even when you don’t

    Yes, you can go far on your own, but with a coach, you can go farther, faster, and with more confidence. If you’re tired of zigzagging and want a straight path to your goals, this episode is for you.

    Let’s talk about why investing in a coach could be the best decision you make for your health, happiness, and success!

    Listen now and let’s get you on the fast track to your goals!
