That was exactly Emma’s question when she was on maternity leave. Emma is an amazing, beloved Yummy Mummy client I invited onto the pod to speak about her experience. Before she joined, she knew she wanted to drop her post-pregnancy weight, b...

One of my favorite clients ever is here to share a bit about her story inside the Yummy Mummy Experience! Liron joins me on the pod today from her home in Kansas City where she lives with her husband and two kids and I know you’re going to relate to her prior struggle with weighing what she wanted. “In the grand scheme of things, I just wanted to lose 10-15 pounds, but it was a lot harder than I t...

The frustration of gaining and losing the same four pounds is a special kind of hell. You just want to weigh what you want and feel good in your skin, but you can’t seem to land in that place. It’s always just out of reach. You start to wonder why it seems like your body is failing you. It’s the worst. I know, I’ve been there. First thing I want you to understand is that this isn’t your fault. We’...

Today’s episode is me sharing my personal story of losing weight for the last time. I think it’s really important to be open and transparent about that process, especially because I (like MANY of us and many of my clients) thought I was a special unicorn.  Meaning, I thought I was so uniquely screwed up that I couldn’t lose weight. Other people could, but not me.  Now, obviously, babes…...

This episode was taken from day 3 of my Summer of Me weight loss challenge, a free 5-day challenge I led in June. It was seriously so fun!

Before the Yummy Mummy Experience (YMX), my client Sierra was like so many of us moms: a very busy woman who just wanted the physical energy to succeed in her career and still be able to play with her kids at the end of the day.  But instead, she was too tired for almost anything.
