Ep 42: If Willpower Worked, You’d Be Thin by Now

If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I just be more disciplined?” then this episode is for you.
So many women believe their struggles with food come down to willpower. That they’re “good” all day… then lose control at night. That something must be wrong with them.
In this episode, I’m breaking down why willpower isn’t the problem, and how dieting, restriction, and exhaustion are keeping you stuck in the binge - guilt cycle.
You’ll learn:
Why self-control always runs out
The real reason night time overeating happens
How blood sugar, stress, and emotions drive cravings
How my clients stop obsessing over food without more rules
What it actually takes to feel calm and in control around eating
This isn’t about trying harder.It’s about building a system that supports your body and your life.
If you’re ready to stop fighting food and start trusting yourself again, press play.

Ep 41: My Pregnancy Game Plan for Less Weight Gain & Faster Recovery

In this honest and informative episode, I’m taking you through my entire pregnancy journey, what I did in each trimester, how I approached nutrition and exercise, and the choices I believe made my recovery and postpartum weight loss easier.
From early symptoms and dealing with first trimester nausea, to managing back pain and pelvic girdle pain, I share what worked, what didn’t, and what I wish I’d done differently. I’ll talk about how I stayed consistent with my training until 33 weeks, the role of prenatal supplements, why I didn’t give in to every craving, and the mindset shifts that helped me stay grounded without being too hard on myself.
Plus, I open up about the things I learned the hard way, like which exercises I’d avoid next time, the importance of iron, and how much I underestimated the reality of pregnancy.
If you’re pregnant, trying to conceive, or want real, practical insight into staying healthy through pregnancy, this one’s for you.
