If you’ve been dieting and exercising your whole life and have yet to reach your weight-loss goal and keep it off, this podcast is for you! Most programs solve for the effect (the excess weight) but not the overeating problem - the reasons why you put on the extra weight in the first place. In each episode you’ll learn how to use your mind, not willpower to feel at peace with food and finally experience life in the body you secretly know is your natural shape. Let’s do it together.

    163 How Planning & Mindset Shifts Create Real Results - Samhita’s Story

    I want to share Samhita’s story with you because I think it speaks to specific mindset shifts she made that took her from stuck at zero lbs lost to finally getting some traction and then releasing 11lbs.  We talk about: how she first had to get honest with yourself and overcome her challenge of giving up without seeing the scale go down. how she was able to feel proud despite the lack of scale results bc of her efforts and who she’s being and the decisions she’s making. how she’s making weight loss enjoyable on her terms.and why she let go of deadlines and started measuring input metrics and how that effected her weight lossBUY Intentional Indulgence $22 (Available until Jan. 5th 2026) Check out Samhita's planner company Bright Beta or on IG @brightbeta.co Watch Build Momentum Video Series  Instagram: @mindful_shape Free Self Coaching Resources Interested in getting coached by me?
