Becoming Type A-
I often hear from clients that they are Type A and they have all kinds of questions about how they should handle situations based on their Type A personality.
Are you someone who identifies strongly as Type A? If so, I have a bit of a challenge for you. What would happen if you let go of that label, just a little bit?
In this episode of Weight Loss for Busy Physicians, I’m exploring where the Type A personality came from, why you might identify so strongly as Type A (or Type B), and why these labels can sometimes start causing problems.
If you enjoy being a Type A, don’t worry; I’m not here to tell you that you need to change your whole personality. If it’s working for you, that’s great! I just want to get you thinking about how that label might be forcing you into a box that you don’t always fit into and how to tap into other parts of your personality that could be getting left behind.
Topics covered in this episode include:
The origins of the Type A personality Why we feel the need to label ourselvesThe pros and cons of identifying as Type A
Let’s talk about the identities that we give ourselves and whether they help us or not.

Healthy Reflection vs. Rumination
What’s the difference between reflection and rumination?
Healthy self-reflection can turn into rumination if you’re not careful, and while self-reflection can be a really productive and helpful tool, rumination tends to be the opposite.
In this episode, we’re taking a deeper dive into the differences between reflection and rumination and the characteristics of each. You’ll learn how to identify rumination quickly and move past it into a healthier mental space. We’ll talk about why rumination is not helpful and self-reflection is and how to cut back on time spent ruminating to make more time for healthy reflection.
Topics covered in this episode include:
The difference between healthy reflection and rumination How to identify rumination Two ways to encourage healthy self-reflectionFour steps to move past rumination
If you often find yourself ruminating on something you said or did a long time ago, or on feedback that you beat yourself up over, you will benefit from the tools in this episode.

Capability vs. Capacity
Just because you’re capable of doing something, doesn’t mean you have the capacity to do it.
So why do we feel like we have to say yes to things even when we know we’re at max capacity?
As women in the healthcare industry (or really any industry) we tend to fear being perceived as incapable. You may not even realize it, but subconsciously you might be holding onto the idea that if you say no to something, your colleagues are going to think you can’t do it.
Ultimately, that’s just not a good enough reason to do things, so in this episode of Weight Loss for Busy Physicians, I’m sharing some questions that you can ask yourself to identify whether or not you want to do something and have the capacity for it.
We’re also talking about how to say no when you know that what you’re being asked to do isn’t right for you.
Topics covered in this episode include:
Things that we tend to take on even when we don’t have the capacity for themHow overextending yourself relates to your eating habits Questions to ask yourself when you’re considering taking on something new
If you have a hard time saying no to things, this is for you.

The Shame of Gaining Weight Back
Why do we feel shame so heavily around gaining weight back after losing some?
There is an explanation for this when we think about the messages we receive about weight throughout our lives, but those external messages don’t actually mean anything about your worth at all. I’m making it my mission to release you of the shame surrounding weight gain.
In this episode of Weight Loss for Busy Physicians, I’m unpacking how to separate your body from your self-worth. I really think it’s time we stopped shaming ourselves for gaining weight back and started working on our self-love, self-compassion, and self-worth at any weight.
Topics covered in this episode include:
Why gaining weight back makes us feel shame How to get out of your own head Reaching a healthy mindset to lose weight from Separating your self-worth from your body
It’s easier to love yourself when you’ve reached your goal and you’re maintaining the weight you want; it’s harder to love yourself when you’re not. That’s the work we need to do, and it starts here.

Long term weight loss solutions!
I love how she explains everything in detail and even gives little examples and stories to really help you understand. She teaches you how to lose weight in a way that you can sustain what you lose. I just recently found the podcast after starting her book and decided to start with episode 1 and I’m so glad I did. Every episode builds on the last and each one provides such good info. Loving binge listening.
