GLP-1 Myths & Misconceptions: Interview with Dr. Sandra Cortina
Have you ever wondered if GLP-1 medications might help your weight journey, or had questions come up about how they actually work? Even as physicians, it’s easy to feel unsure about these newer meds. I know many of us want to approach these tools with more...
Let Weight Loss Be Simple
As a doctor, we’re used to working hard, right? But what if weight loss didn’t have to feel so difficult? In this week’s episode, I’m sharing a live session where we talked about something I wish I’d learned long ago: letting weight loss be easy. Because here’s the...
The Biggest Lessons I’ve Learned in 300 Episodes
I seriously can’t believe I’m saying this… 300 episodes! It feels like just yesterday I was nervously hitting “record” on the very first one, feeling my mouth go dry, hoping I had something helpful to share. Now, nearly six years later, here we are. It’s been quite a...
Avoiding Plateau Pitfalls
Have you ever found yourself measuring every ounce of your food, skipping dessert, and squeezing in workouts before or after a long shift, only to step on the scale and see the same number, day after day? It’s frustrating, and as a physician, it’s easy to feel like...
Freedom Beyond the Scale
I’m really excited to share my latest podcast episode with you because it gets right to the heart of what makes weight loss feel easier—and it’s probably not what you’d expect. In Episode 298, I talk about letting go of the obsession with the scale and shifting your...
What if it doesn’t have to be this way?
I know how hard it can be to feel like you’re just surviving each day. As physicians, we’re conditioned to believe that the stress, exhaustion, and endless to-do lists are just part of the job. You push through, grabbing whatever food gets you through the day, and...

I just dropped a new podcast episode that’s going to hit home for so many of you, and I’ve got to say—it’s part pep talk, part rant, and a lot of truth that we all need to hear. If you’ve ever found yourself looking in the mirror and criticizing your stomach, hips,...
Enjoy one cookie and move on: The missing weight loss skill
“I’ll just have a handful of chips”... and suddenly the bag is empty “Those cookies look really good - I'll just have one”... and then you blink and find yourself finishing your fourth (even though you feel pretty full already) “It’s been a tough day -...
Reclaiming Exercise: Busting Myths and Setting the record straight
This post is your permission slip to stop feeling guilty about exercise. Life is too short to force yourself to do “exercise” that you hate in the hopes that it will make tomorrow's scale number a little bit lower. We have been fed a whole lot of myths...
How Restriction Drives Overeating: Interview with Dr. Megan Melo MD
In our last coaching call for Thrive Academy for Physicians, three members celebrated big changes in their eating. They weren't working harder, but they no longer felt the strong urge to reach for treats. One stopped eating dessert when she was satisfied (and left...
No More Crappy Diet Food!
Say it with me: “I refuse to eat crappy food I hate just to lose weight” Say it again. Say it louder. Sing it at the top of your lungs. If you need to, tattoo it on your arm so you can’t forget it. We have been told for SO many years that we should be satisfied with...
Binge Eating – Where to Start?
Did you know that most of the ways people try to stop binge eating actually makes the binging worse? It’s true. And it’s why binge eating feels so insurmountable. What you focus on when you try to stop binge eating matters. It is possible to take back control even if...
