EP 257. This Is What REAL Success Looks Like After She Stopped Dieting Forever

7 days ago

7 days ago

You know I love a full-circle moment, and today’s episode is exactly that. Remember my client Nisha from Episode 54? She hit her forever weight of 154 pounds without dieting, calorie counting, or giving up wine.

Well, sis is back. And she's not just maintaining—she’s thriving.

In this follow-up convo, we go way beyond the scale. We talk about what it really looks like to live in your reinvention. You’ll hear how Nisha’s navigating menopause, learning to lift weights like a boss, drinking less wine without feeling deprived, and journaling her way to deeper emotional regulation.

This episode is your permission slip to stop obsessing over perfection and start focusing on peace. Because the “after” doesn’t mean happily ever after, it means you keep evolving.

EP 251. GLP-1s, Ozempic & Weight Loss Meds: What Nobody’s Saying Out Loud

Wednesday May 21, 2025

Wednesday May 21, 2025

I’m not here to bash weight loss meds. But I am here to say the quiet part out loud. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on GLP-1s like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro—and telling you what most “experts” are too scared to say.
 
This isn’t about judgment. I’ve been there. I’ve popped pills and prayed they’d shrink me into someone I could finally love. But here’s the deal: weight loss shots may shrink your appetite, but they don’t shrink the reasons you overeat. If you’re not working on your mindset and identity, you’re just renting results—and the rent is due the minute the meds stop.
 
I’ll break down what the research says, what the Facebook groups aren’t telling you, and the powerful truth about emotional eating, identity transformation, and how to finally lose weight in a way that lasts forever. Yes, even in your perimenopause era.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • The real reason most women regain weight after stopping GLP-1s (it’s not just biology)
  • Why weight loss meds don’t fix emotional eating—and what actually does
  • How “Motivational Meltdown” keeps you stuck in a loop (and how to stop it)
  • Why your old identity will sabotage your new body (unless you do this)
  • The simple, repeatable process I teach my clients to stop dieting forever

Wednesday May 07, 2025

Wednesday May 07, 2025

What if your cravings weren’t the enemy?
What if you could keep cookies in the house, buy chocolate for the kids, and walk past the snack aisle like the emotionally regulated queen you are?
 
In this episode of Stop. Dieting. Forever., I’m flipping the script on “sugar addiction” and revealing what’s really going on when you feel like you can’t stop eating sweets. (Hint: it’s not the cookies—it’s the capacity.)
 
If you’ve ever said, “I’m addicted to sugar,” this episode is for you. I’m breaking down what a self-regulation gap really is, why no amount of willpower can fix it, and what it means to build emotional fitness like the grown woman you are.
 
This is the mindset shift that changed everything for me—and it’s one I now teach to every one of my clients.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why your cravings aren’t a character flaw—they’re a call for emotional relief
  • What a self-regulation gap is (and why you probably weren’t taught how to close it)
  • The reason sugar “works” and why it’s become your go-to
  • What emotional fitness actually is—and how it creates true freedom from food
  • How to stop labeling yourself and start listening to your body instead

EP 249. One Conversation and Then She Stopped Dieting Forever - An Interview with Sarah Nelson

Thursday May 01, 2025

Thursday May 01, 2025

If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, but I’m just not doing it,” this episode is going to light you up.

Sarah came to me at age 55, deep in the chaos of menopause, emotional eating, and diet burnout. She wasn’t in a program. She wasn’t “launch ready.” She just sent me an email and said: “How can I work with you?”

We had a Tea Chat.
And that one conversation?
It changed everything.

Inside this episode, Sarah shares how she:

  • Lost 11 pounds and kept it off (even after breaking her arm!)

  • Rebuilt trust with herself after decades of compulsive food noise

  • Quieted the guilt, shame, and mental obsession with eating

  • Shifted her identity from chaos to calm using my mindset-first method

  • Found new energy to move her body, meditate, and reclaim joy

This isn’t a story about a meal plan or a perfect morning routine. It’s about real reinvention. About trusting the process before you see the result. And about what’s possible when you stop waiting for a program to open—and start listening to your gut.
