Hungry for Love: Lose Weight After Toxic Relationships

GLP-1s can be a powerful tool to reduce cravings, improve insulin sensitivity, decrease inflammation, and heal internal pathways...  But they can't heal the patterns that were created long before the weight gain ever happened. In this episode, I'm sharing why lasting transformation requires more than changing what you eat or what medication you take.  We also have to look at the nervous system, th...

Most women are told their labs are "normal." But normal isn't the same as optimal .  In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own recent lab work to show you exactly why reference ranges don't always tell the whole story. While my results would likely be considered "normal" by conventional standards, taking a closer look through an optimal health lens revealed several areas that despera...

After introducing The 20/20 Project last week, I've received some great questions about who this program is designed for, how it works, and whether it's the right fit. So in this episode, I'm answering the most common questions and walking you through the three types of women who will get the best results inside this program. We'll discuss: ✨ Why "I've tried everything" is often a sign that you'r...

For years, I've been asking one simple question: What if the weight isn't the problem? What if it's the symptom? In this episode, I'm introducing The 20/20 Project—a brand new 20-week metabolic healing experience designed to help women stop fighting their bodies and lose the next 20 pounds by addressing the real reasons the weight won't stay off. We'll talk about why traditional diets fail, why th...

For years, we've treated PCOS like an ovary problem.  But what if the ovaries are simply where the symptoms show up?  What if the real issue starts with insulin, inflammation, and metabolic signaling long before cysts ever appear on an ultrasound? In this episode, we're taking a deeper look at why GLP-1 peptides have been so effective for many women with PCOS—and why their benefits extend far beyo...

Food noise isn't just about hunger. While GLP-1 medications can be incredibly effective at reducing appetite and quieting the constant thoughts about food, many people discover that the deeper struggle doesn't disappear when the cravings do. In this special replay from my presentation at the Nashville Health & Wellness Expo, we're exploring the missing piece that rarely gets discussed in conve...

Most people aren't struggling with food, their weight, or habits because they lack willpower or nutrition knowledge.  They're struggling because years of dieting, weight stigma, body shame, and chronic stress have created a nervous system that no longer feels safe around food. True healing requires more than changing what you eat — it requires changing your relationship with food, your body, and h...

If you feel like your metabolism suddenly stopped responding in your 40’s, this episode is for you. Because despite what you’ve been told, your body isn’t “just aging,” and the answer is NOT more restriction, more cardio, or more self-control. In this episode, we’re talking about the deeper reasons so many women struggle with weight gain, inflammation, cravings, exhaustion, and insulin resistance...

What if your autoimmune condition didn’t start in your gut… but in your nervous system? In today’s episode, we’re talking about the connection between emotional abuse, chronic stress, autoimmune disease, hormone dysfunction, and the surprising role GLP-1 peptides are beginning to play in helping women regulate inflammation, insulin, and hormones, so that they finally feel “normal” again. Because h...

Some of us were taught that love means unlimited access. Unlimited tolerance. Unlimited sacrifice. Unlimited chances. Unlimited self-abandonment. And then we wonder why our bodies are exhausted. In this episode, I’m sharing a personal reflection from Mother’s Day after being asked to pray at the end of a church service — specifically around learning to love people with boundaries, wisdom, and some...

Everyone wants to talk about GLP-1’s…  But almost no one is telling the truth about it. Because it doesn’t fit the narrative. You’ve been told you should be able to fix your metabolism with discipline. With cleaner eating. With more workouts. So when something like microdosing actually works… People get uncomfortable. In this episode, I’m sharing what’s really happening when women start using smal...

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my personal experience with microdosing—and how it impacted far more than my body composition. While many people are chasing quick fixes or relying solely on willpower, my journey showed me something deeper: the connection between the nervous system, trauma, and metabolic health.  Inside this conversation, I share: Why I decided to explore microdosi...

Microdosing GLP-1 agonists can create powerful shifts in your body— when they’re used the right way. The problem? Most people (and even many doctors) are using them as a quick-fix weight loss tool. And when that’s the approach, of course you see burnout, terrible side effects, and rebound weight gain. But that doesn’t mean these compounds are the problem. It means the strategy is. When used in a m...

I’ve started recommending microdosing GLP-1 peptides for their regenerative and healing properties.  And the cold, hard truth is: Peptides can do things that supplements can’t.    Supplements have their place, but I’m sure you’ve seen a multitude of supplements claiming to “help your body produce more GLP-1 naturally.”  For most Americans, that’s actually not helpful.  Their metabolisms are busted...

Over the past few months, I’ve been having more honest conversations with clients about something I didn’t expect to talk about in my work — GLP-1 support. The problem is, there’s a lot of misinformation out there and A LOT of people (including doctors) doing GLP’s wrong.  What I’ve come to understand — both professionally and personally — is that many women were struggling because their nervous s...

If you’ve spent years navigating dysfunctional relationships or high-stress environments, your body has been running a "War-Time Economy." When your nervous system is stuck in fight, flight, or freeze, your metabolism isn’t "broken"—it’s actually doing its job. It’s hoarding energy, spiking cortisol, and staying inflamed because it thinks you’re in constant danger. In this state, traditional diet...

If you’ve been 'white-knuckling' your way through a new diet since January 1st and you’re wondering why you still can’t stop reaching for the wine or hidden snacks at 8:00pm...  I have a hard truth for you: Your body isn't broken, it’s just in survival mode.   Today, I’m explaining why your 'weight problem' is actually a 'safety problem,' and how to reset button, so that you can finally stop the c...

In this episode of Hungry for Love , we’re talking about something so many people believe they’re missing: confidence. Most of us were taught that confidence is something you need before you take action. That one day you’ll finally feel ready, brave, certain, and then you’ll go after what you want. But the truth? Confidence doesn’t come first. Confidence is created through action. If you keep wait...

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a huge personal milestone in my business — a goal I’ve been working toward for the last FOUR years. I’ve gotten so close so many times… and faced more setbacks than I can count. This episode is about what it really takes to keep going when it feels like it should have happened by now — in weight loss, career growth, and dating. We’ll talk about impatience, discourag...

You are a powerful creator.  Society wants you to believe you're at the mercy of your circumstances.  But the real secret?  YOU get to choose what you believe and where you put your energy and focus.  Even if something is factually true, there's no point in focusing on it if it doesn't help you create more of what you want in every part of life.  This is a simple, yet powerful concept, and permiss...

This isn’t about shrinking your body — it’s about coming home to it.  Your body isn’t the problem.  Your relationship with your body — shaped by trauma, diet culture, and survival — is. As a kid, you likely learned that your size, shape, or weight (and the need to control them) became a way to earn safety, love, or approval.  It’s how you felt “good enough.”  But this keeps our worth and feeling v...

Have you ever been mid-bite or mid-pour — fully aware you didn’t actually want to keep going — and still felt unable to stop? This episode is for the moments when awareness is there… but choice feels out of reach. If willpower were the solution, you’d already be free. So why do cravings and urges keep taking over — especially when you’re tired, overwhelmed, or emotionally depleted? In this episode...
