260. The “I Deserve It” Eat 23.10.2026 18:25
“I worked hard today. I deserve this.” “I've been taking care of everybody else. I deserve this.” “Nobody appreciates everything I do. I deserve this.” But what if the more useful question isn't whether you deserve the food? What if it's why you believe you have to earn it in the first place? In this episode of Concierge Weight Loss, we're looking underneath the “I deserve it” eat—and the connecti...
259. FOMO: What Are You Afraid You'll Miss? 16.10.2026 16:53

In this episode of Concierge Weight Loss, we're talking about how to enjoy food and...

255. Stop Making Your Habits So Heavy 18.09.2026 20:05
