If you are listening to this show, it's likely you are already on a fitness journey. If you've been stuck in your weight loss in any way, this show is for you. I share why I've learned that consistency to whatever path/workout plan/diet we choose is key- consistency over the LONG-TERM-- that trumps everything. Too many women quit and start over 1000x and if they'd realize how much time they LOSE when they do that....they'd stop and just STAY THE PATH. That's how you win at weight loss.
So many women write to me and say "I know something is wrong with me-- I'm gaining weight, have no sex drive, get headaches all the time, I'm moody, can't sleep, have no energy.....I can't figure it out"- and I ask them : what are you DOING ABOUT IT? They usually answer: nothing. This show is for all you ladies who think you have hormonal imbalance but aren't yet taking action. Let's talk about how much your LIFE will change for the better when you do!
I was single and lonely for most of my adult life. I was the woman everyone wondered "why aren't you married?". And yet, I was stuck in the land of only being asked out by 25 year old guys or married men. I made a decision in 2017 that I was going to meet the love of my life and - I DID - and it's beyond anything I could ever imagine. This is what I want for others to know: you can achieve the greatest love of your life at any time. Don't give up. Make it happen!

In today's episode I talk about the importance of strength training for women- all women. I recorded this show because I still hear so many women saying things like "I'm worried I'll bulk up if I lift heavy weights" or women who just keep adding more cardio hoping to achieve an ideal "toned" body-- and what they don't know is - the #1 most important thing to achieve that "Toned" look is weight-lifting. Tune in to learn more about why this is SO IMPORTANT.
In this last "bonus episode" to close up my mini-series on "My Top 10 Weight Loss Mistakes and How I'm Fixing Them" I'm talking about the importance of genuine BODY LOVE- cultivating an authentic self-love situation for our bodies. We are so hard on ourselves and often hold ourselves up to such unrealistic expectations-- we cause an undue amount of stress. That stress is what can often impede if not prohibit our weight loss progress and as such it's a vicious cycle. Let's stop the madness and start LOVING ourselves more.
In this bonus episode I talk about the importance of surrounding yourself with friends who support you and inspire you-- and enhance your life instead of tempting you to take 3 steps back. Too many of us keep negative, critical, low-performing people in our lives out of a sense of obligation and we don't recognize the damage they can do: how their attitudes and criticisms can hold us back from becoming our best selves. Let's think about the impact it can make to do some PRUNING in the friend area.
This is bonus episode #1 to close up my mini-series on "My Top 10 Weight Loss Mistakes and How I'm Fixing Them". This episode talks about the life-changing (yes, life-changing!!) habit of MAKING DECLARATIONS. I share 3 big life changes that happened after I DECLARED I would do something-- and then took massive action toward the goal. You'll change your future if you listen to this show and apply the practice, I promise. It works!
Welcome to the finale of this 10-episode mini-series on my Top 10 Weight Loss Mistakes and HOW I'M FIXING THEM. Today I talk about why it's so important and will be transformational in every way if we can commit to a full YEAR of improving our health. I've come to realize how much damage we do to our health and hormones when we try to make fat loss happen FASTER at all costs. And ultimately it very often won't even work. It's time for a new mindset: slow, sustainable shredding. Listen in!
In this episode I talk about how important it is for us to have realistic - long-term timelines for weight loss. We are so easily drawn to fitness programs that offer dramatic transformations in 4-6 weeks - sometimes less -- and the data overwhelmingly shows that the FASTER you lose weight, the less likely it is going to stay off. The more slowly and consistently you lose weight, the more likely that weight loss will be permanent. Furthermore, giving ourselves a reasonable timeline decreases STRESS and improves wellness. All good.
This episode will resonate with so many of you- because I know that you, like me, have done this without even realizing. You've put off LIVING YOUR LIFE to the fullest "until..."-- until you lose 10 lbs or until you are a size X or until you feel good about your arms or your butt or your thighs. Can you relate? We think we need to be perfect- to date, to go out and have fun, even to go to the gym!! It's time to stop idealizing the pursuit of perfection and start LIVING again while we pursue IMPROVEMENT.
In this episode I talk about the importance of self-care. We hear about #selfcare a LOT but many of us dismiss it thinking we "don't have time" or we think "I WISH I had money or time for self-care!"- -it's those times and those people that need it the most. In this podcast I talk about what happened in my life "before and after"- before, when I WAS making self-care a priority, and how I was flourishing in all areas of my life, and then when I let it slip, and all areas started to flounder. Now I'm back to making it a priority!
