PODCAST EPISODE 518

If you’ve ever stood in front of the freezer at 10pm thinking about the ice cream — not even hungry, just thinking about it. The problem isn’t willpower. It’s a drama.

I just returned from a five-day silent Buddhist retreat, and I brought back one concept that changes everything: equanimity.

It’s not deprivation. It’s not indifference. It’s the mental calmness of being able to take something or leave it, and it is one of the most powerful tools you can use around food.

In this episode, I share what five days of silence, sitting, and eating mindfully taught me about why your thoughts about food matter more than the food itself, and how one simple shift in the way you talk about your favorite foods can dramatically quiet your urges. Enjoy the show!

PODCAST EPISODE 517

If you’ve been grinding through workouts you hate, white-knuckling your way through diets, and telling yourself I’m trying, I’m really trying — I need you to hear this.

Trying is already expecting to fail. And that’s not me talking. That’s Harvard.

I was listening to Mel Robbins interview one of my absolute favorite researchers, Dr. Ellen Langer — she’s been studying the mind-body connection for 50 years and she is the real deal. She did a study where men in their 80s were placed in an environment that made them feel 20 years younger. Their eyesight got better. Their muscle mass improved. Their bloodwork changed. Just from what they believed. And in another study, hotel housekeepers who were told their daily cleaning counted as exercise? They lost weight. Changed their body composition. The group that wasn’t told anything? Nothing changed. Same job. Same movement. Different mind.

That stopped me in my tracks, because it’s everything I teach you.

In this episode, I’m talking about why the word “try” is a trap, how to think about movement the way a child does (hint: it’s called play, not exercise), and the ridiculously small commitment that will get your brain on your side for good.

You don’t need another diet. You need a new perspective. And this episode is a great place to start. Enjoy the show!

PODCAST EPISODE 516

If you’ve been bingeing at night while eating perfectly by day, and there’s a war of voices in your head screaming eat it vs. don’t you dare, you’re not crazy. You’re just missing a piece of the puzzle.

That’s exactly where Tracie was.

A listener for over a year, Tracie had the podcasts, the books, the information. Nothing was clicking — until she stopped consuming and started getting coached. Just two weeks and two sessions in, she’s already lost 6 pounds. More importantly, she finally feels free.

In this episode, Tracie shares what it was really like to make the leap — the hesitation around money, the dream about puzzle pieces that made her decision clear, and the single session that she says “paid for the whole program in full.” We talk about why the voices get louder and more vicious in menopause, what it means to truly go all in on yourself, and the moment Tracie realized those warring thoughts weren’t her — they were just noise she’d never been taught to manage.

This one will hit home. Enjoy the show!

PODCAST EPISODE 515

You’ve tried every diet. You’ve done the work. So why does the weight keep coming back—especially now, in menopause?

Because it was never really about the food.

I joined Linda Mitchell on the Sisterhood of Sweat Podcast to get into the real reason women get stuck in the diet-regain cycle—and why the answer isn’t more willpower, a better plan, or cutting out another food group. It’s about understanding why you eat when you’re not hungry, and what that reveals about everything else going on in your life.

I spent decades losing and regaining the same 20–30 pounds, convinced I had a weight problem. What I actually had was a feeling problem. And when I finally stopped numbing out with food—I didn’t just lose weight. I left a 35-year career and stepped into the work I was meant to do.

That’s what’s available to you too.

In this episode, we talk about why your 50s aren’t a setback—they’re a signal. Your emotions are louder, your body isn’t responding the way it used to, and that uncomfortable “something needs to change” feeling? That’s not a problem. That’s your soul talking.

Listen if you’re ready to stop fighting your body and finally understand what it’s actually asking for. Enjoy the show!

PODCAST EPISODE 514

Menopause cranks up your emotions, and suddenly that feeling in your body you think is hunger? It might not be hunger at all.

In this episode, I join Dr. John Neustadt on the Delivering Health Podcast to break down why weight loss feels impossible during menopause—and how to finally take back control. The answer isn’t another diet plan. It’s reconnecting with your body’s natural signals so you can eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full, without counting points or following external rules.

I share the physical hunger scale (-10 to +10) that helps you tell the difference between true hunger and emotional hunger, why eating when you’re not hungry reveals what you’re avoiding feeling, and how the ThINNER Peace Process calms “food noise” without medication. Learning how to eat—not how to diet—puts you in control, respects your boundaries, and leads to lasting weight and life transformation

If you’ve believed you “can’t control yourself” around certain foods or wondered why nothing works in menopause, this conversation will change everything. Enjoy the show!
