In this episode, I unpack a question someone asked me on Instagram—Do you struggle with weight gain?—and explore the nuanced, layered truth behind it after my answer on IG only glazed the surface.

We’re talking about why weight gain isn’t always a bad thing but why it often feels bad, how biology, stress, life phases (hello, menopause), and old food patterns all play a role, and how to sit with the emotional and physical discomfort that weight gain often brings.

You’ll hear:

• When weight gain might actually be a good sign
• What curiosity (instead of panic) can teach you
• Why menopause weight changes are biologically normal AND also still hard
• How to find self-compassion when your jeans feel tight

If weight gain feels like a constant battle or brings up panic, this is for you. Can we start asking different questions and stop labeling everything as a problem to be fixed? Let's talk about it. 

What did you think? What do you want to hear more of? Send me a text and let’s chat.
