Hungry for Love: Lose Weight After Toxic Relationships

"Fun" and "easy" are two words rarely associated with weight loss, but that's the primary reason most diets have a 1% success rate.   In order to lose weight and actually keep it off, you've got to have a process that works for YOU in any phase of life.   The real reason we don't know how to make weight loss feel easy and fun?   We're at war with food.   Listen in today and learn: The #1 reason 99...

Thanksgiving is upon us!  And given that Thanksgiving is the #1 overeating day of the year, it's timely to talk about overeating, over drinking, why we do it, and how to break the cycle this year.  People, articles, and new stories will give you a lot of tactical advice about how to not overeat...  BUT, they miss the real root cause of your overeating and over drinking habit.  Your thoughts.     J...

How many times have you told yourself, "I don't have any time," or "I don't have enough time..."

So many of us struggle to understand what self care means and looks like on a daily basis. We feel guilty for doing it, guilty for spending time, money, and energy on something that will only benefit ourselves, but that's often because we get wrapped up thinking that self care is all about bubble baths and massages.   Now don't get me wrong, I'm on board for weekly massages, but self care goes so...

Success doesn’t come from massive changes; it comes from doing simple things consistently.   That's the power of 1% improvements and the compound effect. The biggest obstacle to small, simple changes, however, is our brain telling us things like, "that's not good enough," or "you should be doing more." The reality is small, 1% changes ARE good enough and create massive results and outcomes when we...

Cravings… we’ve all had them. Most of us think that’s the main reason why we can’t stick with our diets, but I want to let you in on a little secret…  Cravings are not as big a deal as we make them out to be.  In fact, most of us experience food urges, not cravings, throughout the day that have us reaching for food when we’re not truly hungry (i.e. emotional eating).  Join me for today’s episode w...

Join me for an all new Savor the Holidays Workshop designed to help you lose weight without sacrificing f...

Many of us have a deep seated fear of failure.  The fear of failure is the idea that you’ll do all the things, take all the action, “get your hopes up,” but you still won’t succeed.  I struggled for YEARS trying to lose weight by eating low carb, trying to cut calories, running more in the gym, but I never created the results I wanted in my body or on the scale.  In today’s episode I’m sharing how...

The only way you will EVER keep your weight off is if you lose it eating the foods you actually love.   Yes, it sounds counterintuitive, but it's an essential piece to truly get out of Diet Hell.   It's not just about counting points, calories, carbs, or fat... it’s about letting go of all those diet rules you think will get the weight off faster, and create a process you can do for the rest of yo...

Have you ever avoided the scale, thinking “I don’t have the mental strength for this today,” or “I can’t handle the stress and anxiety?”   I used to be terrified of the scale, of a number, because of what I was allowing that number to mean about ME. I gave the scale so much power over my happiness, my confidence, my self esteem, my self-worth.    I let that number dictate what I should and shouldn...

How many times have you thought, "who am I to do that," or "I'm not good at that?"    Don’t worry, even high achievers and successful people have these thoughts; the difference is that they’ve learned how to work through them.    You see, clarity comes from taking action, NOT from having the “perfect” plan or it being the “right” time. But you need to have the right mindset in order to take action...

“Everything you’ve ever been taught to think about money is WRONG.”   As with food, we have many restrictions and stories about money. People will say things like “debt is evil or money is bad.” “You shouldn’t buy fancy coffee or get your nails done or spend extra on a handbag.”   We can have so much fear and shame and judgement because of money and debt, which is why I'm bringing in my friend, Sh...

How often have you kept eating even when you were full, because you “didn’t want to waste it,” or “you wanted to get your money’s worth”?    This happens all too often, and it’s these thoughts about money and waste that can drive our overeating habit.    Sometimes we have to look at our thoughts about food… but sometimes we have to look at our thoughts about other things - and money is a BIG ONE! ...

With the modern world that we are living in right now, one would think that topics around sex are already normal, but it's not. It is just not a topic that most of us find comfortable talking about, right?   We need to start normalizing this conversation without shame and judgment, married or not.   So today I'm speaking with Danielle Savory. Danielle is a master certified coach and a pleasure exp...

Procrasti-snacking... Procrasti-cleaning... Productive procrastination (you know, when you do something you “should be” doing anyways, instead of what you actually planned)...  However you like to procrastinate best, know that this is something ALL humans do, but it can lead to massive frustration, criticism, and self judgement as well.  Procrastination is simply another form of self protection -...

For many of us, weight loss can feel hard…  But it’s hard because we make it hard. We try to follow outdated diets and exercise plans; we try to avoid and restrict hoping to one day feel good enough.  Enough of that crap.  It’s time to make weight loss feel easy, effortless and oh-so doable. Join me on today’s episode where I share:   The 3 reasons you’re making weight loss hard How to make weight...

Fear and courage are two sides of the same coin; you can’t have courage without fear, which also makes it so damn uncomfortable.    That’s why today I’m talking with Anne Bonney - author, international speaker, and host of Igniting Your Influence Podcast - so that we can dive into the sticky topics of life and learn how to tackle them head on, instead of stuffing our emotions or finding comfort in...

For decades we’ve been told that weight loss is “basic math” or “simple science.”   We just need to eat less and exercise more.    This is the philosophy behind the “Calories In / Calories Out” (CICO) mentality, but the process of weight loss is more than just a simple math equation.   We debunked this diet myth YEARS ago, yet it still perpetuates the weight loss and fitness space today, making it...

Do you feel like you need the “right” size or shaped body in order to be stylish?  Do you put off buying new clothes until you’ve “lost the weight?”  Do you buy clothes that are too small to incentivize yourself to stick with your diet / weight loss goals?    I’ll be the first to tell you there’s absolutely NOTHING wrong with wanting to lose weight, but what’s most important is how you think and t...
