Metabolic Flexibility: How to Train Your Body to Burn Fat Again So You Can Finally Feel Free


Listen Later

This summer I spent almost a whole month eating my way through Europe–pasta, pretzels, gelato, french fries–all the things I would normally avoid.

But when I finally came home, I hadn’t actually gained any weight. 

It’s pretty crazy, especially when I realize that five years ago one little cheat meal would leave me three pounds heavier and spiraling with guilt for weeks. 

But the difference isn't willpower—it's metabolic flexibility. 

And once you understand what that actually means, everything about weight loss starts to make sense.

I talk a lot about all the things you can do to lose weight, but not nearly enough about the freedom that happens when you actually HEAL your body.

Because when I started doing all the research, I basically discovered that pretty much everything I'd ever been taught about losing weight was backwards. 

The calorie counting, the restriction, the willpower—all of it was actually making my problem worse. And the moment I stopped fighting my body and started working with it instead? That's when everything clicked.

And so today we're going to talk about why that whole approach is completely backwards. We're diving deep into metabolic flexibility—what it actually means, why it's the real game-changer for your health, and how you can stop fighting your body and start working with it instead.

By the end of this episode, you'll understand why every diet has failed you, what your body actually needs to burn fat efficiently, and how you can finally get the food freedom you've been dreaming about. 

Plus, I'm going to share something pretty exciting I'm launching that can help you put all of this into action for the last 90 days of this year.

So let’s dig in.
