Mind In Motion

This week on the Mind in Motion podcast, I’m joined by Ethan Benard, who has been on an incredible weight loss journey.

At his heaviest, Ethan weighed over 600 pounds. Since then, he’s lost more than 100 pounds—and while his journey is far from over, his mindset, determination, and perseverance are nothing short of inspiring.

In this episode, we talk about:
- What life was like before he started- The first steps he took toward change
- The mental + emotional challenges of such a big journey
- How he stays motivated through setbacks
- Lessons for anyone facing a mountain-sized goal

In today's episode, we’re getting real and vulnerable about the challenges we’ve faced with dieting over the years - from food guilt and restriction to navigating social events and finding balance. We’re breaking down the struggles so many women can relate to, while sharing the tools, mindset shifts, and strategies that have helped us create a healthier relationship with food.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the all-or-nothing cycle or frustrated by conflicting nutrition advice, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone - and that lasting change is possible.

Pregnancy and postpartum don’t mean putting fitness on pause. In this week’s episode, we sit down with Dr. Ashley Moody, a pre & postnatal specialist, to break down what safe and effective training really looks like through every trimester and beyond. We’re busting myths, talking recovery, and giving you the tools to feel strong and supported in every stage of motherhood.

We’re answering your top questions this month! From microdosing GLP-1s and navigating perimenopause weight fluctuations to managing cortisol and more, this episode is packed with practical tips and honest conversations to help you feel strong, balanced, and in control of your health.

Eating for your goals doesn’t have to mean cooking separate meals for yourself and your family. In this episode, we break down simple strategies to make meals both family-friendly and aligned with your nutrition goals. From easy swaps to building balanced plates everyone will enjoy, you’ll learn how to create harmony in the kitchen without extra stress or multiple dinners.

The last 10 pounds are where most people stall - not because they aren’t working hard, but because the approach that got them this far won’t take them the rest of the way. In this episode, we break down the mindset shifts and strategic tweaks that make all the difference when you’re closing in on your goal. From dialing in nutrition without becoming obsessive, to managing recovery, to staying motivated when progress feels slow, we’re giving you the tools to finish strong and keep the results for good.

Today we’re diving into my postpartum experience—the highs, the lows, the mindset shifts, and everything in between. Let me tell you… no amount of knowledge can fully prepare you for what this season brings—physically, mentally, or emotionally.

Whether you're in the thick of postpartum right now, preparing for it, or reflecting on your own journey—I hope this episode reminds you that you’re not behind, your body isn’t broken, and healing isn’t linear.

This is a real look of what it looked like for me to rebuild my strength—inside and out—and how I’m learning to hold space for both grace and growth at the same time.

Today we're digging into a topic that might just change the way you approach your nutrition and mindset journey: the difference between restriction and restraint. At first glance, they might sound the same—but in reality, they create two very different outcomes.

If you've ever felt stuck in the all-or-nothing cycle or confused about what “discipline” should actually feel like, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about how to recognize the difference and use that knowledge to fuel a more sustainable, empowered approach to your health.

Join Macros and Mindset! Next round starts August 18th!

Today’s episode is a special one because I’m sitting down with one of our amazing Macros & Mindset members, Lindsay.

She’s someone who came in ready for change—but like many women, she was juggling life, family, work, and everything in between. What I love most about her journey is that it’s not just about weight loss or hitting a certain number—it's about finding freedom, strength, and confidence through sustainable habits.

You’ll hear about what held her back before starting, what shifted along the way, and how she’s showing up for herself now.

So whether you’re just getting started or feeling stuck in your own journey—this one will give you a serious dose of inspiration and proof that it is possible. Let’s get into it.
