Why does weight loss work for a while… then quietly fall apart?

In this episode, I break down the hidden reasons weight loss doesn’t stick for most women. Not willpower, hormones, or motivation, but common mistakes and patterns that keep people repeating the same cycle without realizing it.

We talk about why “trying harder” backfires, how inconsistency creeps in, and what actually needs to change for results to last.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still not seeing progress, this episode will give you the clarity you’ve been missing.

What if the thing holding you back isn’t fear of failure, but fear of uncertainty?

In this episode, I break down why most people avoid starting not because they’ll fail, but because they don’t yet have clarity, confidence, or a map. You’ll learn why waiting to feel “ready” keeps you stuck, and how taking action is the fastest way to dissolve fear.

We talk about how uncertainty shows up in weight loss, habits, and relationships, and why confidence doesn’t come before action, it comes from action.

If you’ve ever tried to portion-control, eat “healthy,” or follow the rules of dieting but still felt stuck, this episode will make everything click.

This week I’m talking with Amy (Broccoli Mom 🥦), who lost 66 pounds and has kept it off for five years! For nearly two decades she was trapped in the cycle of eating as little as possible, getting starving, binging, and feeling like something was wrong with her. Her story shows what really keeps women stuck and why willpower is never the answer.

💪🏻 We dig into the habits that secretly caused weight gain, why raw vegan and low-calorie diets left her hungrier than ever, and how misunderstanding calorie density created years of frustration. When she finally learned how weight loss actually works, everything changed.

🎙️ In this episode you’ll learn why restriction backfires, how calorie density affects fullness, and what finally made weight loss sustainable for someone who naturally loves to eat.

What if weight loss wasn’t about hitting a perfect calorie number, but about eating in a way that actually keeps you full and satisfied?

In this episode, I break down why “healthy” meals can still stall your progress, how calorie density and water-rich foods affect fullness, and why eating more of the right foods can make fat loss easier.

Tune in to finally understand why calorie counting alone isn’t enough and how to make your meals work with your body, not against it.

If you’ve ever found yourself reaching for snacks even when you’re not hungry, or wondering why you can’t just stay consistent, this episode is going to be a game changer.

This weeks episode is a live reply from a Lean with Plants community talk all about dopamine — the brain chemical that teaches you what’s rewarding and how it influences everything from your cravings to your habits. The crazy thing is, dopamine isn’t just about pleasure… it’s about motivation. It’s what drives you to repeat certain behaviors, even the ones that don’t serve you.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to understand dopamine so you can start working with your brain instead of constantly battling against it. We’ll talk about why processed food feels so hard to give up, how to make consistency easier, and what it really takes to build habits that last.

If you’ve been struggling with motivation, or feeling like you “fall off” every time life gets stressful, this one’s for you.

Joann’s story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to change.

For years, she struggled to stay consistent. She wanted to live a healthy, whole food lifestyle but kept slipping back into old habits that left her feeling frustrated and stuck.

Through Lean With Plants coaching, Joann finally discovered why consistency had always been so hard and how to make it simple. By focusing on real behaviour change, she built habits that last, found freedom from dieting, and created results that now feel effortless.

This episode inspired me and I hope it will leave you inspired to believe that lasting change really is possible, no matter how many times you’ve started over.

If you’ve been stuck, doing “everything right” but still not seeing change, this episode will shift how you see your entire weight loss journey.

You don’t need a new diet or more motivation, you need clarity about the direction you’re heading. Because every choice you make is a tiny vote for who you’re becoming.

In this episode I'll break down the four stages that shape lasting transformation:
🌱 Ignorance — when you don’t know why nothing’s working
💡 Truth — understanding how physics, energy, and calories actually work
💭 Acceptance — letting go of resistance and wishing it were easier
⚡️ Action — learning to steer your habits with intention instead of emotion

You’ll learn how to stop arguing with reality, face the truth with compassion, and finally create a system that aligns your daily choices with your long-term goals.

Because progress doesn’t happen from one big decision. It comes from hundreds of small directional choices that shape who you are becoming.
