Can you ethically coach intentional fat loss and a healthy relationship with food at the same time?

In this episode, Gillian breaks down when fat loss emerges as a by-product of food relationship work - versus when a push for intentional weight loss can pull clients away from flexibility, permission, and self-trust.

You’ll learn why screening for red flags is so important, (restriction, urgency, body-driven self-worth), explore your client's true motives, and use mindful eating skills to help clients regulate behavior without over-relying on macros.

In this episode:

  • When fat loss is a by-product vs. a competing goal

  • How urgency and scale-reactivity maintain overeating cycles

  • Intake & screening questions that surface hidden dynamics

  • Why mindful eating skills reduce binge/emotional/external eating

  • Coaching without the bait-and-switch: pre-education and clear offers
