Earlier this summer I had a state move that left me abandoning the habits I worked so hard to build and by the time I arrived to my new home state of North Carolina, the scale was up.

If I'm being completely honest, this has been hard for me to share..

Because I'm a coach, and I preach "never gaining the weight back" so to see that my scale inched up? It felt embarrassing.

But similar to you, I'm human and I also go through phases in my journey where things feel hard. This is the first time outside of pregnancy I've ever "gained the weight back" (even though it was only a few pounds) but I felt it.

My clothes fit tighter. My skin started breaking out like crazy. I was more irritable with my kids. I didn't want to go to the gym because I felt gross. I realized quickly I needed a reset.

Fast forward six weeks and my scale is down six pounds. I didn't do anything restrictive or extreme. I simply went back to the habits that helped me lose 50 lbs after having my daughter.

In today's episode I'm breaking down some of the common mistakes you could be making and exactly what you need to do to lose 10-15 lbs before the end of the year.

Woohoo!! You’re ready to lose 20–30 lbs and finally feel like YOU again, and I am so excited for you!

But you're also a little stressed about it because you've been down this road before..

You've hopped on the whole diet and workout train before and ended up restricting a lot, having crazy cravings, having to cook separate meals from your family, and slowly watch your self develop this “obsession” around food.

As someone who used to personally struggle with this in the past and as a coach who has helped so many moms overcome this, there's a few things that helped me break free from constantly dieting but never seeing results.

My 3 step method, The Forever Fit Mama Method is the exact framework I used to lose 125 lbs combined in my own weight loss journey and this framework is what makes things so different.

This is how you lose weight without obsessing over every bite or making yourself miserable in the process.

When you learn how to build a way of eating you can actually stick with for life... one that gets you to your fat loss goals AND feels like "just how you eat now" instead of a diet, that's when you unlock a new level of freedom in your journey.

And this is exactly what I teach you inside my group coaching program, Strong as a Mother. This is where you’ll break free from the dieting cycle, lose fat without misery, and build a lifestyle that actually sticks through macros, habit building, mindset work, and strategies designed specifically for busy moms.

And right now is the best time to sign up because when you join in the month of September, you’ll receive back to school promo pricing - save $50 off per month for up to $200-300+ off your investment 👏🏻 You can sign up by clicking the link below in the show notes.

What does success in your weight loss journey actually look like? Spoiler: it's not another restrictive diet, hours in the gym, or making yourself miserable in the process.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the three C's I've seen show up in every single successful client transformation over the last 6.5 years of coaching 450+ moms.

If you’re being honest with yourself, you’ve been struggling for months or years at this point.

You may have the mindset of “I’ll figure it out” or “I’ll find the thing that sticks” (and more power to you for having faith) BUT if you want to feel confident as f*ck in your clothes again, be excited to post the pictures with your family because you love what you see, and be a good mom while balancing it all… it’s going to take confidence in your plan.

That’s exactly why I built my Strong as a Mother group coaching program.

This is where you’ll learn how to…

🩷 Ditch the diet mentality and build habits that stick in every season of motherhood so you can forever live in a body you love

🩷 Eat food you actually like while losing fat (learn the strategy of tracking macros)

🩷 Train smarter, not longer with a workout program made for your busy life (home or gym)

🩷 Stay consistent even when life gets crazy with daily coaching support and a plan that bends so it doesn't break

🩷 Stop Googling and second-guessing because you have the proven step by step plan for fat loss success

🩷 Finally feel in control around food, in your body + in your life without sacrificing your life to get there

Strong as a Mother is where you finally lose the weight for good, and feel confident as f*ck in your clothes again.

This summer was so much fun… warm weather, beach days, late nights, ice cream trips, vacation, and you FULLY enjoyed it.

But now that school is back in session and it feels like you’re back to “regular life” you’re starting to realize that your healthy habits completely flew out the window the last 2-3 months…

Your clothes are fitting more snug, you feel sluggish, and if you’re being completely honest, you’re beating yourself up about it. But back to school doesn’t need to mean new routines for just your kiddos - it’s a great chance for you to reset.

However this summer did or didn’t go, now is the time for you to make the most of these last four months of the year.

And what if this time you learned how to do it in a way that allowed you to see progress in every season?

And this is exactly what I teach you inside my group coaching program, Strong as a Mother.

In Strong as a Mother we work together to help you break out of the diet cycle, lose fat without misery, and build a lifestyle that actually sticks through macros, habit building, mindset work, and strategies designed specifically for busy moms.

Do you ever catch yourself saying "we don't eat that" or calling a food "bad" in front of your kids, and then wonder if you're accidentally passing down the same food anxiety you grew up with?

That's exactly what we're getting into today and this one is personal for me. I grew up with a mom who was always dieting, who talked badly about her body, and who taught me (without probably meaning to) that food was something to earn or feel guilty about. It took me years, and becoming a mom myself to break that cycle.

If you've ever worried about how your own relationship with food might be shaping your kids', you're not alone, and it's not too late to change it.

There are 5 practical shifts I've made in my own house to raise kids who don't inherit that same food anxiety...

And we're walking through exactly what those look like in today's episode.

Now that summer is coming to a close, you might feel like the entire summer went by without making any progress in your journey OR maybe you feel like you put in a good amount of effort this summer, but nothing happened…

That’s exactly what we are going to be talking about today, because I know this is one of the most frustrating places to be and I’ve been here myself where you are working so hard, showing up diligently, saying “no” to things, tracking your food, working out hard - you’re doing A LOT but the results aren’t showing.

If you aren’t yet reaching your fat loss goals consistently, it means something is off with your current approach.

Whether it is fad diets, being overwhelmed with all of the conflicting advice out there, or just life being busy - something is holding you back from the results you want. Let's uncover this together!

There are common 3 gaps I see holding moms back from reaching their fat loss goals...

And we’re diving into what those are and how to fix them in today’s episode.

If I were to ask what your barrier(s) to making your fitness goals a priority were, would time be on that list?

If so, today’s episode is perfect for you.

We are breaking down how important it is to have a morning routine that allows you to fill your own cup before jumping into the day as mom, wife, co-worker, house manager, etc.

Maybe you’re like me and you’re a list maker so you make big lists and intentions, but then none of it goes according to plan. You end up not accomplishing anything or moving forward because you’ve just given yourself so much to do at once.

You see everyone around you waking up at 5am, doing ice baths, meditations, yoga, journaling, affirmations, workouts, and everything before sun is up and that makes you feel worse because you know you’re not doing any of it.

In this episode I’ll share with you the practical mindset tips that’ll help you create a morning routine that feels as good as it looks, and tangible strategies for actually figuring out what that looks like.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why macros (not another diet or more restriction) are the thing that actually gets you out of the all or nothing, "I'll start Monday" cycle. We're talking:

✔️ What macros actually are and why they matter more than a calorie number alone
✔️ The 3 biggest mistakes moms make when they start tracking macros
✔️ How to make this work in real mom life so that losing weight feels easier

Plus, a behind the scenes update on our move to North Carolina and my own shift back into a deficit phase (no stress macro tracking).

If you're tired of the good food, bad food cycle and ready for a system that actually feels easier, this one's for you.

If you've ever told yourself you don't have enough time, energy, or "normal circumstances" to lose weight right now, this episode is for you.

I'm sharing the story of a client of mine: a mom of three, working full time, traveling regularly for work, and breastfeeding for most of this year. In that time, she STILL lost 30 pounds while eating over 2,000 calories a day.

In this episode, I break down exactly what we did for this transformation - how we built her nutrition around breastfeeding to make sure she was losing weight without losing her supply, how she stayed consistent through travel without ever feeling like she was starting from scratch, and the mindset shifts that helped her not only lose the weight but keep it off forever.

If you're in the thick of it right now but ready to prioritize your goals, this one's for you.

You've lost some weight already and things were flowing great in your fitness journey... until something changed. You're doing all the same things to lose the rest of the weight but now the scale isn't budging.

So where do you go from here?

Here's what most moms do: they panic. They drop calories even lower, push their workouts even harder, and cross their fingers that "more" will fix it. But that's usually the exact opposite of what actually works and it's how weight loss starts to feel really freakin' hard and miserable instead of sustainable.

There's another way. In today's episode, I'm breaking down why plateaus happen, what your body's actually telling you when the scale stalls, and strategy that can get things moving again, without starving yourself or living in the gym.
