Think about your brain as a room full of thoughts.  You want to get them organized, in order, and deliberate.  Most of the time, thought are just random, unfocused, and overwhelming.
When you let your mind go, where does it go? What do you think about? 
Obsessive thoughts?
Habitual thoughts?
Thoughts that create desire or buffering?
This process helps to clean out and organize your mind like you clean out and organize your house.  What do you need to let go of? What is outdated and no longer useful? What don't you want to think about anymore? What do you want to fill your mind with? What do you want to use your mind power to create?

Starting your weight loss journey can be daunting. We simply want someone to tell us exactly what to do.  We've all been there – wanting someone to spell out the exact steps to shed those extra pounds. But what if I told you that true success lies in creating your own unique path?
Imagine this: I provide you with all the details, from what and when to eat to how to exercise, but the weight doesn't magically disappear when you snap your fingers. Frustration sets in, blame is assigned, you quit and  soon the cycle repeats with a new coach or social media influencer.
Here's the reality: I am 100% here for support and guidance, but the key to lasting success is when YOU take charge. When YOU decide what works best for you, set your own goals and protocol, and declare, "I am doing this," that's when the transformation happens.
In this episode, I'll share 5 guidelines to EMPOWER YOU on your personalized weight loss journey.
Let's kickstart the journey to creating YOUR personalized plan for success.

Excuses are sentences running around in your head that make you feel justified to overeat.

Excuses often feel true.

Excuses always provide relief.

Excuses are normal.

Excuses that aren't noticed are the only ones that have total power over you. Once you notice them,  you're taking your power back so you can overcome them.

In order to get something different, you need to do something different. 
In this episode, we delve into the fascinating realms of your brain, spotlighting two distinct parts and their unique functions.

Once you understand that many of your thoughts and actions have been "coded" into your brain, you can give yourself compassion as you teach your brain to think differently and create a different action to something as common as eating a plate of food

Awareness is the first step in changing any process or creating a new process.

So, how would you rate your relationship with food?

Is it your go-to for comfort when things go awry?

Does it calm you?

Is it your go-to celebration tactic?

Does it give you energy?

I have a worksheet for you that can help you rate where you are now. And if any of your thoughts freak you out, you can normalize them, neutralize them, and decide on the next best decision to move forward.

Having a positive relationship with food is a goal we should all have in order to help achieve our health goals.

In this episode, I talk about the beauty of unlearning. It was inspired by a single line I read in a book. "I wonder if there is a school for unlearning."
It's amazing how you can read one line and how it can translate into an absolutely powerful conversation.  Today I am talking about 5 common health and dieting beliefs that we need to unlearn. And once you unlearn them, your weight loss goals will become that much easier. 

Hey, ever wonder why we pack on the pounds and why so many of us can't seem to get a handle on our weight?
It's a common struggle, and I have heard it all from friends, colleagues, and even random people in line at the store. They share a relatable story saying, "I'm smart, but I can't figure out this food thing. Why is it so hard?"
Well, turns out, we all have this super-smart, logical brain, but there's also a sneaky little habit brain that's like a stubborn toddler when it comes to food.
The podcast dives into understanding this habit brain so you can take control with your big, beautiful, and smart logical brain.

What happens when I say, "Don't think about a purple elephant?"
Yep, you probably thought about a purple elephant. 
What do you think happens when you tell yourself, "I can't eat after 7pm" 
Yep, all you think about is what you want to eat.
When creating goals for yourself, I talk about what types of goals to avoid and a better approach to creating goals that your mind is willing, open, and excited to achieve.
