Gina Livy is the founder and CEO of Weight Loss by Gina Inc., a business that helps people lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way, so they can move on with their lives and never have to worry about weight loss ever again. Gina has been helping people lose weight for over 30 years and her mission is to disrupt the diet industry by showing people there’s a different way to lose weight that’s healthy for their body and their mind, while making it accessible, affordable, doable, and sustainable. 

From her humble beginnings in the wellness industry to her recent triumphs and challenges, Gina doesn't hold back as she shares her powerful experiences. We'll hear about her complex relationship with her ex-husband and how she's been navigating the emotional aftermath of his passing. The topic of losing oneself in a marriage is a candid one, and Gina bravely discusses how she found her own identity and growth after facing this challenge. Through the highs and lows, she found support and new beginnings in a blossoming relationship. 

The theme of reconciliation in the face of death takes us on a deeply emotional journey. Gina reflects on the unexpected gifts that can emerge from loss and how it can reshape our perspectives on life and relationships. Weight, health, and body image are subjects many can relate to, myself included, and Gina's candid exploration of her own struggles in this area is both relatable and inspiring.
