What happens when you grow up in an era that told women their worth was tied to being thin?
In this episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast, I sit down with Mary Macdonald — a commercial artist who witnessed firsthand how Mad Men-era advertising shaped the female psyche around weight loss.
Mary's story starts in the sixties and seventies, when the message was everywhere: thin = success, beauty, worth.
Even though Mary wasn't overweight, she picked up her mother's weight struggle. She inherited the BELIEF that her body was something to fight against.
Sound familiar?
But here's where Mary's story gets powerful: She broke free from those outdated narratives.
✨ Released 32 pounds
✨ Maintained her weight loss for months
✨ Developed real-life strategies for permanent change
This isn't about another diet. This isn't about willpower.
This is about shifting OUT of the old stories that keep us stuck — and INTO a new relationship with ourselves, our bodies, and food.
If you're tired of:
❌ Feeling like a sugar addict
❌ Constant carb cravings
❌ The endless cycle of losing and regaining
Mary's journey will show you what's possible when you master the MINDSET behind lasting weight release.
