Ep 87: Just One Small Thing: How to Feel Better Without Fixing Everything


Listen Later

Feeling overwhelmed, unmotivated, or stuck in your weight loss journey—or just life in general? This week’s episode is your reminder that healing, momentum, and clarity can all begin with one small thing.

Join me as I share what happened when I cleaned my kitchen sink (yes, really!) and how that one simple act helped shift everything—from my energy to my mindset.

We’ll explore:

  • Why feeling your feelings is essential to emotional resilience and weight loss success

  • How to stop numbing and start gently shifting

  • What to do when your usual “toolbox” (like walks, workouts, or meditation) doesn’t feel like enough

  • How small external resets—like tidying a drawer—can calm internal overwhelm

  • Releasing the rush to “get there” and learning to trust the process of becoming

    Whether you're working on your health, trying to regulate your nervous system, or just feeling off, this episode will help you find peace, self-trust, and progress—one breath, one drawer, one clean sink at a time.

    🎧 Tune in and reclaim your sense of momentum—without the pressure.
