Love Life And Lose Weight

84: Open Loops: The Real Reason You Can’t Focus or Follow Through


Listen Later

🎯 In This Episode, You’ll Discover:

If you’ve ever thought you just need more motivation, more willpower, or more structure to stay on track with your weight loss goals—you’ll want to hear this.

There’s something happening behind the scenes in your mind that’s quietly sabotaging your ability to focus, follow through, and stay consistent. And no one’s really talking about it—until now.

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking:

✨ A sneaky source of mental exhaustion that’s hiding in plain sight
✨ Why even high-achievers struggle to stay present and consistent with food habits
✨ The surprising link between this mental clutter and emotional or mindless eating
✨ What you need instead of more willpower to finally feel in control
✨ A weekly practice that can create instant clarity and long-term follow through

This is the hidden work that makes sustainable weight loss feel easier—because your brain finally has the space to show up for the life (and body) you want.

💭 If You’ve Been Saying Things Like:

  • “I know what to do, I just don’t do it.”
  • “I feel like I’m always behind and overwhelmed.”
  • “I eat on autopilot when I’m tired or scattered.”

Then press play now. There’s a good chance this one shift will make everything feel lighter.
