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...
Body Image Pep Talk: Why You Need to Stop Judging Your Body
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 -...

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...
Restriction v.s. Abundance
Restriction sucks big time. I suspect you agree with me on this. None of us like to be restricted. But the moment we start thinking about losing weight, we are shifting into restrictive thoughts… “I guess I can’t have cream in my coffee any more…” “So & So on...
The ‘right way’ to lose weight as a physician
I wanted to share something with you that came up the other day in a coaching call. This is such an important foundational shift in how you think about your weight and eating that I recorded you a whole podcast episode about it. We’ve been taught to look for the “one...
My 3 Best Tips
Giving yourself permission to slow down and take care of yourself and your own well-being is a skill that I work on with Physicians inside the Thriving As A Physician program. This week on the podcast I share the importance of self-compassion and celebrating...
Dealing with tough things
As much as I wish a smooth and happy life for you, the reality is that tough things are going to happen. Knowing what to do when the tough things happen is an important skill for managing your weight long term. Often a big life event is what leads to people regaining...
