    3 Small Shifts That Make Healthy Eating Feel Way More Doable with Chef LeighM

    Healthy eating shouldn’t feel like a second full-time job — but if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, behind, or like you’re failing at “doing it right,” this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, I’m sitting down with nutritionist, chef, and corporate wellness strategist Chef Leigh to break down what your version of healthy can actually look like in real life — not the Instagram-perfect kind. We talk through three simple but powerful shifts that make nourishing yourself feel doable even on your busiest days: the Power Plate Pause, why snack prep often matters more than meal prep, and how to use mood–food mapping to support your energy, focus, and emotions. This episode isn’t about restriction, perfection, or copying someone else’s routine. It’s about learning how to pause, fuel instead of just function, and make food work for your life — not against it. If you’ve been craving a calmer, more grounded approach to eating that actually fits your schedule, your stress levels, and your season of life… press play. The shift you’ve been missing might be simpler than you think. 4:16 – How to Find Your Own Version of Healthy 6:53 – Power Plate Pause: The Simple Mindful Eating Trick 13:38 – Snack Prep vs. Meal Prep—Making Nutrition Work For You 25:43 – Mood Food Mapping: Using Food to Support Your Emotions 31:54 – Why Pausing and Fueling (Not Just Functioning) Is Your First Step Episode Links: Ready to make healthy eating feel simpler?

    How to Build Results That Last Beyond 4 Weeks Without Burning Yourself Out | REAL RESULTS RESET

    If your results only last a few weeks, it’s not because you’re inconsistent — it’s because your plan was never built to survive real life. The cycle of going all-in, burning out, and starting over isn’t a motivation issue. It’s a strategy issue. And today we’re fixing that. In the final episode of our Real Results Reset Series, I’m breaking down why most resets fail, why intensity and perfection backfire, and what actually creates progress when life is busy, messy, and unpredictable. We’ll walk through the three pillars that make results repeatable — not just doable on your best weeks, but sustainable on your worst. Plus, the simple “worst week test” that changes how you approach consistency altogether. You’ll walk away feeling clear, grounded, and confident in a plan that doesn’t fall apart the moment stress, travel, hormones, or real life shows up. And by the end, I’ll ask you one question that could completely change how you build results from here on out. Hit play and let’s dive in. 0:09 – Why Most Resets Fail (Hint: It’s Not a Motivation Problem) 3:44 – The Power of Repeatable Weeks Over Perfect Weeks 4:26 – The 3 Pillars for Lasting Results 11:06 – How to Structure Your Routine for Real Life (Even During Your Worst Weeks) 13:07 – Why Measuring Progress Takes More Than Just Watching the Scale 14:24 – Progress Isn’t Linear—Consistency Is Key Other Episodes You’ll Love: Ready to stop starting over?

    3 Mistakes That Quietly Sabotage Your Fat Loss Every January | REAL RESULTS RESET

    Imagine having the body you WANT and the energy you NEED – all while eating the food you love! Join The Macro Accelerator today: https://mindin-my-wellness.captivate.fm/macroaccelerator If you’ve ever kicked off January feeling fired up and somehow found yourself exhausted and off track by week three, this episode is for you. I’m opening our Real Results Reset series by calling out the three silent mistakes most women make every January that quietly sabotage fat loss before it even has a chance. This isn’t about willpower or trying harder. It’s about why starting from the wrong place keeps you stuck in the same start-over cycle year after year. In this episode, I break down why motivation alone isn’t a strategy, why slashing calories works against your hormones and energy, and why trying to earn results by doing more actually backfires. I break down what really moves the needle for women when it comes to fat loss and body recomposition, and how to build habits that hold up when life gets busy instead of falling apart the moment routine breaks. This is the foundation for everything we’re building this month, and it’s designed to feel doable, repeatable, and grounded in how your body actually works. By the end, you’ll feel relief knowing you don’t need a more intense plan or more restrictions to see real results. You’ll walk away with a clearer starting point that supports your metabolism instead of fighting it and sets you up for consistency, not burnout. 4:09 – How Relying on Motivation Instead of Strategy Sets You Up for Failure 5:01 – Why Intense, All-or-Nothing Plans Don’t Last 6:31 – The Hidden Risks of Focusing Only on Cutting Calories 8:12 – Why Prioritizing Protein, Carbs, and Stress Management Supports Fat Loss 10:25 – The Secret: Building Metabolic Capacity Beats “Burning More” OTHER EPISODES YOU'LL LOVE: Ready to stop starting over?

    The Truth About My Hardest Year and What I’m Carrying Forward

    This episode is raw in a way I don’t usually get. No expert interview. No structured lesson. Just me sharing the hardest year of my life and the moment I realized I was standing at a fork in the road. Losing myself completely or choosing to rebuild into the woman and mother I want to be. I talk honestly about postpartum hormones, losing routines, grieving parts of my old life, and the quiet identity shift that no one really prepares you for when motherhood collides with ambition, business, and real life. I take you behind the scenes of what this year actually looked like and the realizations that finally stopped the spiral. We talk about the pressure to do it all, why feeling lost doesn’t mean you failed, and how I’m redefining priorities without abandoning myself in the process. I also share the non-negotiables I’m committing to as I move into this next season and why rebuilding doesn’t have to be extreme to be meaningful. By the end of this episode, I hope you feel less alone in the messy middle and a little more grounded if this year shook your sense of identity. If this year left you feeling lost, stretched thin, or quietly questioning who you are now, this episode is for you. 0:19 – What It Feels Like to Lose (and Rebuild) Your Identity After Baby 12:09 – How Setting Non-Negotiables Helped Me Reclaim Control 14:51 – Why Therapy, Routine, and Flexible Nutrition Became Essential Tools 22:22 – How Rebuilding Gently, Not Perfectly, Is My Goal for the Year Ahead Other Episodes You’ll Love: Episode 132: The #1 Thing No Mom Warned Me About Weaning 🔗 HEAD TO THE SHOW NOTES: https://mindin-my-wellness.captivate.fm/episode147 💭 Have a question on your mind or a trend you want me to break down for you?

I’m walking you through how I would personally enter 2026 if my goal was to lean out without pressure, guilt, or starting over.
