And while those things are valid, the belief that it will be harder for you before you even start ends up creating half the struggle.

You'll learn: → Why the "this probably won't work for me" story feels factual but quietly pulls you out of ownership → How pity disguises itself as honesty and keeps you from learning what your body actually needs → Why using logic to justify discouragement blocks progress and keeps you dabbling → How to shift into a mindset that makes your health journey accessible — even if your body requires something different You don't have to pretend everything is easy. You just need to stop using your circumstances as evidence that you can't reach your weight loss goal. If you're ready to drop the resignation, get back in the driver's seat, and move toward your goals with steadiness instead of self-pity…this episode will give you that perspective you need.

"This episode is the perspective shift you've been missing. Because when the scale doesn't move, most of us won't get curious. We'll get defensive. And, this is normal. Your brain goes straight to:"I knew this wouldn't work." "My body must be different." "Something is wrong with me." But what's actually happening isn't mystery or malfunction — it's a missing skill: a lack of humility when losing weight. In this episode, you'll learn: → How entitlement sneaks in as "I should have results by now" → Why craving certainty keeps you from hearing what your body is actually saying → What humility looks like in practice when you're learning to listen to your body → How to troubleshoot without spiraling into "I'm broken" thinking Your body isn't unpredictable. It's consistently communicating with you all the time. This work is about becoming a woman who doesn't demand quick answers from her body — but one who's willing to learn what those answers are each day.
