  • 47. Weight loss, finances and clutter
    Oct 3 2024

    Is weight loss impacted by other life challenges such as finances and clutter/organization? Are there connections and similarities between these 3 things? This is what we are talking about this week! We covered:

    • Correlations between financial hardship and weight
    • How environment affects weight and the connection there (as discussed in episode 18)
    • What are the similarities between all 3 of these?
    • The CALM Method as it relates to finances and clutter (it's not just for weight!)


    As I mentioned, I really want to keep this discussion going, so please reach out to me if this resonates with you or if you have any thoughts about it.

  • 46. Acknowledging your growth
    Sep 26 2024

    This week we are discussing how important it is to acknowledge how far you have come and the growth that you have experienced.

    It's so easy to think about how far we have to go, or to simply focus on the change that is yet to happen or where we want to get to. But it's really necessary to look back and see how far we have actually come - this helps to keep the change happening!

    We talk all about the importance of looking back and recognizing that change, especially if it's below the surface and not as easy to see.

    In the episode, I mentioned my upcoming 4-week group program that will be in its first round - click here to get on the list and be the first to know when you can sign up!

  • 45. Creating a short term strategy for yourself
    Sep 19 2024

    In this episode, we talk about the process of developing a short-term strategy that helps you work towards your goals - and I used my own end-of-the-year strategy as an example! I know I love a good story or example, so I hope that listening to what I plan to do to lose weight in the rest of 2024 will help you to think of your own strategies you could implement.

    We discuss:

    • How to create a plan for yourself that you can trust and stick to
    • Tips for avoiding information overload and focusing on small, practical steps
    • Why listening to your own body leads to better, more sustainable results
    • Strategies for managing daily routines and expectations, especially with ADHD
    • Why it's so important to create a plan/strategy that is based around YOU and your life - not a plan that someone else hands you (don't tell me what to do!!!)

    If you’re looking for ways to build confidence, trust your own decisions, and create a plan that truly works for you, this episode is for you.

  • 44. You are allowed to want to lose weight
    Sep 12 2024

    You are allowed to want to lose weight.

    You aren't a bad person or a victim of diet culture if you truly in your heart desire weight loss.

    It's up to you whether it's right for you.

    I feel very strongly about this and it's why I recorded this episode! Just remember that you are the one who knows your true intentions, and no one else gets to dictate that for you.

  • 43. The power of resets and self-discovery
    Sep 5 2024

    This episode is partly a bit of an update on my own "reset" I have been taking, as well as some insights from that and reflection on the importance of self-discovery.

    I talked about:

    • The need for personal resets to make sure what you are doing aligns with your authentic self
    • How sometimes our habits may actually be forms of restriction rather than genuine change if we aren't taking time to pause and assess
    • Why rest is a really productive part of growth and change
    • The importance of self-discovery in building long-term habits and avoiding burnout


    Remember - your relationship with yourself is the most important relationship you will have in your life! We can't ignore ourselves and not tend to our own needs if we ever want to feel fulfilled.

  • 42. Feeling at home in your body
    Aug 29 2024

    In this episode, we dive into the concept of feeling at home in your body, which of course can mean different things to different people! Some things covered include:

    • the idea of recognizing your body as part of yourself rather than feeling disconnected
    • some of my personal challenges with this disconnection
    • neutrality and self-compassion as part of working on negative self-talk and body image issues
    • some unique ways neurodivergent people may experience this discomfort
    • ways of developing self-awareness

  • 41. Sensory overload, ADHD and weight loss
    Aug 22 2024

    In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of sensory overload—how it affects those of us with ADHD and its significant impact on our daily lives, particularly in the context of weight loss. We cover:

    • What is sensory overload?
    • How sensory overload affects people with ADHD
    • The connection between sensory overload and weight loss
    • Symptoms of sensory overload to watch out for
    • Practical strategies for managing sensory overload

    I hope this resonates with you, and that you can begin to be kinder to yourself when you are dealing with sensory overload.
