A recent pancake lesson, my experience at a week-long meditation retreat with Dr Joe Dispenza, and are your priorities in line with what you want?

Brenda joins me on the podcast to talk about her experience of getting started on her journey back to her self, health, weight loss, and joy after life changes, weight regain and finding herself stuck in the mud. Her empowering story will show you how important it is to simply start, trust the process, and how much joy and confidence is found from day one. Brenda had a gastric sleeve just like me and was considering a revision before choosing to start over with addressing her relationship with emotional eating and food. I am so proud of Brenda and you will be too! So much hope and joy in this episode.

Dr Carla Caturia, Teen Coach, assistant principal and college professor, joins me in this episode to talk about teenagers!

You can find Dr Carla on Instagram @drcarlacaturia to follow and learn more strategies and encouragement from her on all things kids and teens and more! Dr Carla would love to be a resource for you and your family. Reach out for a call to find out how she can best serve you! [email protected]

The final wedding recap, plus compelling reasons why today needs to be your day one and how to implement it being your day one. I also digressed into a little narrative about the value of letting go of your victim flag.

Some of the idiosyncrasies of Minnesota, and the things that stood out on my recent trip. Plus some live reporting at the Minnesota State Fair with Roy. This episode is all fun so listen in and experience a little Minnesota with me.

A long and emotional sit down with my husband, Roy to hear the details of his life story. This is raw and unedited, in the hopes that you will hear the sincerity and emotion, and get a picture of the trajectory of his life. Over 48 years headed in one direction, repeating patterns that kept him stuck, before a hard pivot into a new direction, and the start of his second story. He tells his story so you will see that no matter what the theme of your first story, you can turn the page and write a new one, the moment you grab the pen.

A freedom experience in Chicago, some of my favorite protein ideas and a deep dive into emotional eating. Why do you emotionally eat and how can you break the chains?

My next group program starts September 7 and it’s going to be a fully immersive intensive group “therapy-style” program. Freedom from food addiction, learning how to truly love on and invest in YOU and freedom from diet culture will be the focus. This is going to be life-changing and in this episode, I tell about why I chose this program to offer and who I am praying will be a part of it.

In this episode, I tell you all about my wedding, and then connect you to the power that you have to save yourself, one moment at a time. Also included is our wedding song.

Creating your future via meditation and visualization. The power of rehearsing your food behaviors and my 10 day cut for wedding weight loss.
