Not everything is what it seems…

I hate to be the one to break it to you but there is no “magic pill” that will suddenly change everything always and forever…

Yes, there are strategies that will greatly improve weight loss efforts, but this doesn’t mean that you will never have a “bad day”...

There will still be days when….

Your overwhelm and frustration gets the best of you.

Despite sticking to a “perfect” plan…things will go off the rails.

You binge-eat a bag of Oreo cookies
You hit the snooze button and don’t have enough time to pack your lunch for the day
You decide to watch TV instead of going for a walk

I just want you to know that this is completely normal and a one-off moment or bad day doesn't need to turn into anything more…

It is important to keep the perspective that transformation is not a destination…It's a continuous series of steps that lead you haphazardly to your goal…

Give me a 💪 if you needed to hear this today!

Is extra weight killing your vibe?
Or is it quietly stealing parts of your life while you pretend you’re “fine”?

Because it’s not just about the number on the scale.

It’s the mental math before getting dressed.
The closet full of clothes that should fit.
The way you scan a room to see if anyone will notice.
The hesitation before photos.
The voice that whispers, “I’ll do it once I feel better in my body.”

So you wait.
You shrink.
You postpone joy.

You tell yourself you should be grateful.
That this “shouldn’t matter.”
But it does.

Carrying extra weight isn’t just physical — it’s emotional, mental, and deeply personal. And the constant restarting, self-doubt, and trying to figure it out alone is exactly what keeps women stuck in The Vicious Weight Loop.

If any of this feels uncomfortably familiar…

Comment HELP and I’ll send you a link to a calm, honest conversation to help you get clarity without committing to anything. 💛

Ever feel anxious, wired, tired…
and stuck with stubborn weight that refuses to move?

That’s not a coincidence.

Low magnesium → higher anxiety.
Higher anxiety → higher cortisol.
Higher cortisol → your body hangs onto fat.

Especially belly fat.

Most women try to “fix” this by eating less, moving more, or blaming themselves…
when the real issue is that their nervous system never gets a break.

One simple support many women are missing?

Magnesium glycinate...
It can help calm your nervous system, improve sleep, and lower stress hormones — all things that directly impact cravings, energy, and metabolism.

Weight loss doesn’t happen in a stressed-out body.
It happens in a supported one.

If you’ve ever felt wired but exhausted, drop a 😵‍💫
If sleep is your biggest struggle, drop a 😴

Google is ruining your relationship with your body.

You go online just trying to figure out
why the weight won’t budge anymore…
and suddenly you’re drowning in fear and nonsense:

• You “need” 16 supplements before breakfast
• You’re supposed to cut dairy, gluten, sugar, carbs, wine, chocolate… and basically all joy
• You should be spending hundreds every month on fancy “health” food
• And somehow everything you read makes it sound like you’re one bad lab result away from disaster 😵‍💫

No wonder you feel confused, overwhelmed, and frozen.

That constant flood of contradictory advice doesn’t help you lose weight —
it makes you second-guess everything and do nothing… or do too much.

You don’t need more Google panic.
You need a clear, realistic plan that actually works for a midlife body.

So stop spiraling…
You need a clear, sane plan that actually works for a midlife body.

3 myths about menopausal weight gain that are keeping you stuck…

Let’s talk about the lies women in midlife have been fed about their bodies.

Because these myths don’t just confuse you…
they make you blame yourself, restrict harder, and feel like you’re failing — even when you’re trying everything.

And that’s exactly how women get trapped in The Vicious Weight Loop.

Here are the biggest ones I see every single week:

Myth #1 👉 “I just need to be stricter with my diet.”
FACT: Starving, cutting carbs, or eating tiny portions only tells your body it’s in danger — and a stressed, menopausal body will cling to fat. Sustainable, balanced eating is what actually turns weight loss back on.

Myth #2 👉 “Fat makes me fat.”
FACT: Your hormones need healthy fats. Avocados, olive oil, nuts, and seeds help stabilize blood sugar, reduce cravings, and support the very hormones that control where your weight goes.

Myth #3 👉 “I need to do more cardio to burn this off.”
FACT: Endless cardio can backfire in midlife. You don’t lose menopause weight by running yourself into the ground — you lose it by building muscle and lowering stress with smart strength training and gentle movement.

These myths keep women exhausted, discouraged, and stuck doing things that worked at 35… but fail miserably at 50+.

Be honest — which one have you been believing?
Tell me the number and I’ll give you some real insight on what your body actually needs.

Where I live is beautiful because it feels like home — not just a place.

It’s the kind of community where people notice when you’re missing…
where support isn’t performative — it’s real.
where you don’t have to have it all together to belong.

That kind of environment changes how you show up in your own life.
It gives you room to breathe, to grow, to chase the things that matter most.

I’m deeply grateful for it.

What’s one thing you appreciate about where you live? 🩷

Questions to ask yourself if you’re DONE fighting your midlife body and carrying this weight:

WHY do I want this weight gone—really?
Not the polite answer.
The honest one.
The one about the jeans, the mirrors, the photos, the confidence you miss.

HOW would my life feel different if this weight wasn’t controlling me anymore?
More energy.
More ease.
More freedom in your own skin.

What am I most looking forward to when this finally shifts?
Feeling attractive again.
Saying yes to plans without panic.
Getting dressed without that heavy sigh.

What has stopped me so far?
Doing “everything right” with nothing to show for it?
Hormones? Exhaustion? Diet burnout?
Fear of failing again?

If I do nothing… what does life look like?
1 year from now.
5 years.
10 years.
Same frustration? Same discomfort? Same “I’ll start Monday”?

On a scale of 1–10, how ready am I to stop surviving in this body and start feeling like myself again?
And what would move that number up—just one point?

If reading this made your chest tighten or your stomach drop… you’re not broken.
You’re just tired of pretending this isn’t affecting your life.

I’d love to talk through your answers and help you find a path forward that actually makes sense for a midlife body—no shame, no extremes, no dieting chaos.

My life with my dog…

Every morning, I’m dragging myself out the door like a responsible adult…
Meanwhile, Echo is curled up living her best life—doing exactly what I wish I could do: crawl back into bed, pull the covers over my head, and pretend the world doesn’t exist for a few more hours.
Honestly? She’s got the right idea. 😜

And here’s your reminder:
Laughter isn’t just “cute.”
It’s medicine.
It’s therapy.
It’s the tiny spark that keeps us sane when life feels like a lot.

So tell me—
Who else looks at their pet in the morning and thinks,
“Yep… you’re winning at life today”? 🐾

Simple switches make a massive difference.

The moment I stopped following the so-called “rules” every health expert was preaching… everything changed.

I realized a peaceful walk along the lake did WAY more for my body than forcing myself through an hour at the gym.
I kept my meals stupid-simple instead of exhausting myself with elaborate recipes.
And let’s talk about the lie that you must wake up at 5:30am to be healthy…

Once I dropped that nonsense and actually slept in on the weekends (because my body needed it), my health — and my mood — improved fast.

Here’s the truth no one says out loud:
You don’t need more discipline. You need a plan that fits YOU.

If something isn’t working, it’s not a failure — it’s feedback. Change it.

Now tell me 👇
What’s one thing you were told you “had to do”… but found a better way that actually worked for you?

When someone tells me they’re planning to “quickly drop 20 pounds for their daughter’s wedding”…

My heart sinks a little.
Because I know what that usually means.

Starving.
Panic-dieting.
Punishing their body in the name of a dress.

And I get it.
You want to feel confident.
You don’t want to hide in photos.
You don’t want to spend one of the most important days of your life thinking about your stomach instead of your daughter.

But here’s the brutal truth no one tells you:

Cutting carbs and fat doesn’t make you strong.
It tells your body it’s under attack.

And when your body feels threatened, it fights back.

Hunger becomes relentless—not because you’re weak, but because your body is trying to survive
Your metabolism slows to a crawl to conserve energy
Your energy tanks, your mood shifts, and your confidence erodes right when you need it most

And the cruel part?
You blame yourself…
Instead of the plan that set you up to fail.

You don’t need to shrink yourself to be worthy of that moment.
You don’t need to suffer to feel beautiful.
And you definitely don’t need another “just push harder” plan that leaves you exhausted and heavier on the other side.

There is a way to feel confident, strong, and at peace in your body—without betraying it to get there.

Want to know what actually works for midlife weight loss?
Comment YES and I’ll send you the details to book a free call.

Because this moment deserves more than panic and punishment.
It deserves you feeling like yourself again. 🤎

How I start my day changes everything…

Before the world gets loud, before the to-do list tries to own me, I set the tone on purpose — not by accident.

Here are the top five things I do to make sure I start my day like a woman who’s in charge of her life (not just reacting to it):

Two minutes of 4-7-8 breathing
Because calming my nervous system before my feet even hit the floor is my secret weapon.

A big glass of water
Hydration before caffeination. My body deserves that kind of respect.

Coffeeeeee = Me Time
No guilt. No rush. Just me, my mug, and a moment to exist before the world needs me.

Miracle Morning practice
Silence. Affirmations. Visualization. Movement. Reading. Journaling.
It grounds me. It sharpens me. It pulls me back into who I want to be.

Protein-packed breakfast
Because I refuse to let my blood sugar dictate my mood, my cravings, or my day.

Now I’m curious…What’s ONE of your morning non-negotiables? 😄

12/04/2025

You don’t need to be the “expert.”
In fact? Pretending you are is the fastest way to stay stuck.

I’ve been running into this a LOT lately…
People nodding along, smiling, acting like they’ve got it handled—when inside they’re drowning.

This morning I was chatting with a client who I swore had a concept nailed.
They sounded confident. They said all the right things.
So naturally, I assumed they were good.

Three weeks later?
Zero progress.
Not because they were lazy. Not because they weren’t trying.
But because they were too scared to say, “Hey… I actually don’t get this.”

The moment they finally told me the truth?
BAM.
Everything shifted.
With the real information, I was able to help them instantly.
One conversation and they were moving again.

So listen…
PLEASE don’t pretend you know more than you do.
Don’t fake clarity.
Don’t act like you’ve got it “more together” than you really do.

That helps NO ONE—not you, not me, not your future self who’s begging for momentum.

Ask the damn questions.
All of them.
The messy ones. The “I feel silly asking this” ones. The “I should already know this” ones.

DM me if something isn’t clicking.
DM me if you’re struggling with something I haven’t covered yet.
DM me if you’re sitting in confusion pretending you’re fine.

It helps me help you so much faster—and I promise you’re not the only one who needs the answer.

Let’s drop the perfection act and get you moving forward. 🩷
