The Burn Stress Lose Weight Podcast

September often feels like a fresh start: the kids are back in school, routines shift, and there's a natural pull toward new goals. But how do you harness that energy without falling into the same old traps of quick fixes and short-lived motivation? In this week's episode, I'm sharing why September is the new January and how to use seasonal resets to fuel sustainable success—on or off the scale. W...

Perfectionism can be a super-skill… until it quietly becomes the very thing holding you back. In this episode, I'm sharing the results of a not-so-secret experiment I've been running to break free from overthinking, reclaim my time, and find more presence in my life. What started as a simple shift in how I approached this podcast turned into a powerful lesson about pressure, productivity, and free...

We've all said it before: "I'm doing everything, and it's not working." It feels true. It feels justified. But it's also the exact thought that keeps so many overachievers stuck in frustration, burnout, and start–stop momentum. In this episode, I'm adding a little extra "masala to the chai" and calling out this sneaky, disempowering sentence for what it really is: a silent results killer. We'll di...

Let's be honest—boredom doesn't feel sexy or motivational… but it might just be the exact ingredient your future self is counting on. In today's episode, I'm coming to you straight from my car (yes, really!) after a StairMaster session that reminded me why I do what I do and why I used to resist this kind of work so hard. I'm talking all about how to embrace boredom without burnout, and how your a...

Ever find yourself constantly "putting out fires," despite having the best-laid plans? You're not alone. In this episode, I'm sharing a simple (but powerful) mindset shift that helped me break the cycle of procrastination, and it all started with a plane ticket to Paris. This chatty, behind-the-scenes-style episode dives into the real reason smart, high-achieving women feel behind, overwhelmed, an...

If you've ever felt like thinking about weight loss is taking up way too much mental energy—like it's become a second job—you're not alone. In this episode, I'm sharing why smart, high-achieving women (like you) spend so much time overthinking their strategy… and how to get that time back. We'll talk about the real fears that keep you stuck, the doubt that slows you down, and the simple shifts tha...

This week, I'm sharing a conversation that's especially close to my heart—with one of my real-life best friends, Dr. Devon Gimbel. She's a physician turned travel expert and the host of the Point Me to First Class podcast, and she's the person who first introduced me to the idea that travel—especially solo travel—can be transformational in the best way. In this episode, we talk about what it means...

What if the reset you've been craving doesn't come from a new planner or perfectly aligned schedule… but from a plane ticket? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Courtney Downes, a full-time ER doc and the founder of Prescription to Travel MD. We talk about something a little different than our usual programming—travel, especially solo travel. If you're a high-achieving woman who's been putting off...

Summer doesn't have to be the season of sabotage. In this episode, I'm pulling one of my favorite (and most strategic) episodes from the archives to answer a question I get every single year: Can I enjoy summer and still lose weight? Spoiler: Yes. But only if you drop the myth that weight loss has to feel like deprivation. If you've ever felt like you have to press pause on your goals during summe...

Ever wonder if that constant hum in your brain around food — the what, when, should I, can I — is just part of life now? This episode is going to challenge that idea in the best way possible. Recorded from a hotel room in Toronto, I'm diving into a powerful, unscripted conversation about food chatter, dopamine, overachievement, and the real reason we over-snack, overthink, and overdo. If you've ev...

Sometimes life throws a curveball, and this week, that meant a surprise mom duty moment for me. But rather than skip a podcast episode (which I never do), I'm sharing a gem I've never released here before. This episode walks you through exactly how to evaluate your weight loss results like a rockstar, without drama, guilt, or throwing in the towel when the scale doesn't budge. If you've ever told...

Ever wonder why, despite being so successful in other parts of your life, sustainable weight loss still feels out of reach? In this episode, I'm sharing a behind-the-scenes look at a recent coffee chat where I broke down exactly why so many high-achieving women struggle to lose weight—and keep it off—no matter how hard they work. I've taken everything I know, from my own journey as a busy physicia...

In today's episode, I'm sharing an incredible conversation with my client, Dr. Kara Geoghegan—a fellow OBGYN, busy mom of four, and total rockstar. Kara opens up about what it was really like to juggle her demanding career, family responsibilities, and a desire to finally prioritize her health.

In this inspiring episode, I'm having a conversation with real client Dr. Hazel Abinsay, a busy pediatrician and mom of two who transformed her wellness journey with one simple mindset shift.

Dr. Ghofrany br...
