    "White-Knuckling it or Giving Up...There Was NO In between." My client Katie's Story.

    In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with one of my clients and friends, Katie, to have an honest, real conversation about food, midlife, menopause, mindset, and what it actually takes to create lasting change. ------------------- If you're listening in real time, make sure to sign up for my Free Webinar "Your Year of Change" HERE. ------------------- Katie had been listening to this podcast for a long time before we worked together. She understood the concepts intellectually. She wanted things to change. But like so many women, she found herself stuck in the cycle of trying hard, tightening down, losing control, and then blaming herself. In this episode, we talk about what finally shifted. Katie shares what it felt like to go from feeling helpless around food to feeling calm, grounded, and in control—without dieting, restriction, or perfection. We talk openly about menopause, inflammation, exercise no longer “working” the way it used to, and the cultural story that midlife weight gain is inevitable. We also dive into something bigger than weight loss. Katie explains how learning to manage her thoughts—not just her food—changed how she shows up with her kids, her husband, her work, and even her aging parents. One of my favorite moments in this conversation is when she shares how the mindset tools we use helped her respond differently to everyday stress instead of numbing out with food. We also have an honest conversation about using GLP-1 medications as a tool. Katie shares why she chose to use them, the stigma she felt, and why mindset work is still essential if you want the results to last—whether you’re on medication or not. If you’ve ever: Felt like you should be able to do this by nowWondered why what worked in your 30s and 40s no longer worksFelt stuck consuming information but not creating real changeOr worried that focusing on food might negatively impact your kids…this episode is for you. Katie’s story is a reminder that you’re not broken—and that real freedom around food is possible at any age when you stop relying on willpower and start changing how you think. I am currently taking private coaching clients.

We will spend an hour together, and I will help you uncover exactly what needs to change so you can live in the body and live the life you want. Can't wait!

    What is Possible in 2026

    Save your spot in my next Free Webinar ( Your Year of Change) HERE. In today’s episode, I walk you through one of my favorite end-of-year practices: asking what is truly possible for you in 2026. This isn’t about surface-level goals or New Year’s resolutions that fade by February. This is about intentionally creating your life—your body, your habits, your mindset, and the woman you are becoming. I share powerful reflection questions to help you move from consuming information to actually creating change. We talk about how you want to feel in 2026, what you want to create in your body, health, relationships, money, and life, and who you need to become to make those things real. I also explain why big goals matter—not because you must hit them perfectly, but because of the confidence and self-trust you build along the way. You’ll learn: Why focusing on feelings (not just outcomes) creates sustainable changeHow to think bigger than your past resultsThe importance of identity, beliefs, and daily intentionHow choosing a Word of the Year can anchor your growthWhy allowing discomfort is part of real transformationIf you want 2026 to be the year you stop starting over and start living intentionally, this episode is for you.

    Weight Loss Drugs & Why Mindset Still Matters

    In this episode, I share my honest thoughts on the new landscape of weight-loss drugs and why the deeper mindset work behind weight loss will never become obsolete. I also introduce the new name of my 3-month program — Modern Change — where I help women lose 10–15 pounds permanently by learning the mindset, emotional intelligence, and habits that create lifelong results.  Enrollment opens Monday 12/22/25 and you can get all the details and enroll here: www.modernbodymodernlife.com I talk about: Why I'm not here to give medical advice or debate pros/cons of weight-loss drugsWhy judgment around these medications — especially among women — is hurting usThe importance of supporting women in whatever choices they make for their healthWhat weight-loss drugs don’t do: teach emotional mastery, habit building, self-trust, or long-term skillsWhy this work still matters deeply, whether or not someone uses medicationHow I want to think on purpose about other women — with more compassion, less judgment, more loveMy stance: You get to choose what’s best for your body, and I’m here to support you either way. Mindset, emotional regulation, honesty with yourself, planning, and self-trust will always matter. I am currently taking private coaching clients.
