Doing "all the right things" and still can't lose weight? It's not your thyroid, your willpower, or your discipline. It's something deeper.

In this episode, I sit down with Jennifer Powter, weight loss & mindset expert, to unpack the real reason women struggle with weight in midlife.

We're diving into childhood programming, self-sabotage patterns, and why that nightly glass of wine is doing more damage than you think. This conversation gets real, raw, and practical, because you deserve to understand what's really going on.

What You'll Discover:

● The childhood messages about food still running your life (without you knowing it)

● The #1 mindset shift: stop being a perfectionist

● What self-sabotage actually is

● Why decision fatigue makes you eat at night

● The alcohol truth: it blocks fat burning for TWO DAYS after one drink

● How chronic dehydration slows your metabolism by 30%

● Why your feelings are NOT facts (and how to take action anyway)

● The basics that work: hydration, vegetables, strength training, consistency It's not all in your head. Your struggles are real, but fixable.
