Why Everything You’ve Been Taught About Weight Loss Is Wrong – And What To Do Instead
Women have been told for decades that calories in, calories out is the key to weight loss.
But what if that’s completely wrong?
In this episode, I sit down with Carrie LaPolli, a behaviour specialist turned nutritionist, to unravel the biggest myths about dieting, weight loss, and women's health—and trust me, this conversation will change the way you think about food forever.
Carrie’s story is powerful and raw—from struggling with an eating disorder to realising she was unknowingly passing diet culture down to her daughters.
That wake-up call led her to completely transform her approach to food, health, and self-worth, and now she’s helped thousands of women break free from the toxic cycle of restriction and self-sabotage.
What if the key to thriving in midlife has NOTHING to do with dieting?
Carrie explains how balancing blood sugar—not counting calories—is the real solution to energy, metabolism, hormonal health, and yes, even long-term weight management.
And she doesn’t just talk theory—she lays out a simple, sustainable framework that you can start using today to feel more energised, in control, and at peace with your body.
In this episode, we cover:
✔ Why focusing on weight loss is keeping you stuck (and what to focus on instead!)
✔ The simple shift that helped Carrie finally feel free around food
✔ How to stabilise your blood sugar for better energy, mood, and weight regulation
✔ Why the diet industry sets women up to fail—and how to break free
✔ Practical tips you can start using TODAY to stop the dieting cycle for good
This is the episode every woman needs to hear, whether you’re tired of yo-yo dieting, frustrated with your progress, or just looking for a better way to feel great in your body without food obsession.
If you’re ready to ditch dieting for good and step into true food freedom, hit play now—you won’t regret it.
