100. Marriage & Entrepreneurship: A Conversation with Ivan Bowman
I bet you’ve never heard that you have to embrace boredom to get to your weight loss goal.
I learned about this idea in Cal Newport’s book, Deep Work, and it blew my mind. I was so intrigued that I immediately researched what it means to embrace boredom, talked to my friends about it, and went on a little experimental trip to understand this idea more.
I knew it was revolutionary and yet, I instantly rejected it.
Embrace boredom! But why? How? Who even?!
What I’ve learned through research and experience has drastically changed how I feel about my daily life and wouldn’t you believe, has made maintaining weight loss *even easier*.
Now I’m bringing this idea to you on the podcast!
In this episode we’ll cover what it means to embrace boredom, why we dislike feeling bored so much, and how doing this one thing will help you lose weight and keep that weight off.
Stick around until the end for some powerful questions to help you explore this idea even deeper and turn it from an idea to something you DO!
If you loved this episode, give it 5 stars and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform so others can find this podcast.
And share this episode with your fellow Life Coach who might have never heard of this idea and would love to learn more about embracing boredom on their weight loss journey!

38. Dream Makers
There are three things that will help you make your dream weight loss goal happen: make your food plan ahead of time, write it down, and honor it.
You might know these as the 3 Super Simple Steps and if you’ve been around for a bit you've probably heard me talk about them, but keep listening because I’ve never talked about them like this in this second part of a 2-part podcast series.
In this weeks episode, we’re covering why the 3 steps are the dream makers.
In last weeks episode, part 1 of this series, we covered what the dream stealers are and why they keep you from your dream (so go listen to that first if you haven’t already!).
Now we’re talking about how the 3 steps will help you make your dream happen: lose weight, stop emotionally eating, and trust yourself.
If you’re not using the 3 steps, I want you to stop and ask yourself why. Consider why not try using this one tool that could help you make your dream happen.
Listen to this episode to help you sell yourself on making this one tool be the next thing you do towards your dream.

37. Dream Stealers
There are three things that will keep you from your dream: dieting, depriving, and denying yourself.
We're going to talk about all three, what I like to call the 3 D's, in this first part of a 2-part podcast series.
In this episode, we'll start with dreaming about what it is you really want: weight loss, stopping emotional eating, and trusting yourself.
Then we'll dive into how the 3 D's are keeping you from your dream. Dream stealers!
It's not enough to know what's keeping you from your dream, though. Listen in and then take a look at how the 3 D's might be showing up in your life right now and then commit to letting them go!
In next week's episode, the second part of this series, we'll cover the dream makers and how pairing the tool I'll cover with mindset is the way to make your dreams happen.

35. Imposter Syndrome Part 2 - How to Have a Weight Loss Goal and Coach Your Heart Out
We've talked about imposter syndrome before, but not like this.
It's so important for all you wonderful Life Coaches to know you can still help all the people, change all the lives, and be the best coach you can be even when you're on your journey to lose weight.
The two NEVER have to cancel each other out. They are not mutually exclusive.
In today's podcast, we'll cover why we do tend to go towards imposter syndrome and doubt our coaching skills and the effect we're having on our clients.
We will also talk about what to think about yourself as you're on this awesome journey to get to your weight loss goal and how that can positively affect your coaching and clients.
Stay tuned to the end for some powerful questions you can ask yourself to ponder on this some more beyond this episode.
Let's stop imposter syndrome in its tracks instead of letting it stop us in ours.

34. The Difference Between Easy and Ease
My two favorite sayings are “Let it be simple” and “Lose weight with ease”.
What I don’t say is weight loss should be easy. In today’s episode, I break down why that is and then share with you the difference between easy and ease.
It’s important to understand the difference between the two and also to be clear on what the goal is (i.e. should we try to make it easy?).
I’ll be sharing with you my opinion on hard vs easy as well, why neither is better than the other, and why something being hard doesn’t actually have to be a problem.
Be sure to listen to this one as there may be some helpful thoughts to help you overcome your own objections on your weight loss journey that you may not have realized you had.

31. How to Know When to Get Started
In this episode, we're answering the question everyone has at the beginning of their journey: When should I get started losing weight?
This kind of question doesn't have a straightforward answer, though, so first, we'll dive into how one even knows how to answer that question.
I'll share with you examples of filters to use to help you decide when to get started losing weight.
It's so important to think about your filters for how to know when to get started as weight loss, and any other goal you go after will take some type of time, energy, and monetary investment. So you're going to want to know and love your reasons when it is time to get started.
We'll also talk about the impact of getting started now and how getting started now will impact you today and six months from now so that whenever the time is for best you to get started, you're already gearing up for an amazing journey.
As you'll hear in today's episode, there is no right or wrong answer, just be sure to have your back no matter what you decide.

30. Body Love
We’ve done an episode about Body Thoughts, we’ve done an episode about the Love Paradox, and now we’re dedicating an entire episode to Body Love.
The thing about love, as you’ll hear in today’s episode, is that it requires attention, consideration, and it’s almost like a skill in that it requires effort.
So in this episode, we’ll dive into what it could be like to purposefully love your body. And I mean love it now, before you lose weight.
If you’re anything like my clients or me, your body has had plenty of negativity and hate directed towards it.
Imagine giving your body all the love for the rest of your weight loss journey and beyond. Now that’d be lovely.

29. Celebrating
Celebrate! Celebrate!
Get on the celebration train with me today! One of my clients recently hit her goal (pause for applause) and it got me thinking about celebrating on your weight loss journey.
In today's episode, I'm bringing the celebrations to you! I'll share with you how my client and I celebrated her hitting her weight loss goal. I'm also sharing with you how one of my clients celebrated big this week even though she hasn't lost weight yet.
I'm showing you how we celebrate big in both scenarios because I want you to be celebrating on your weight loss journey.
It's so important to celebrate throughout, in the middle, and in the end of your journey because it brings a different kind of energy we don't want to be without when we're tackling such a big goal: to lose weight for the last time.

It’s time I finally shared with you my story of how I lost 25lbs and so we’re doing that today on this 25th episode of the podcast.
I find it so fascinating to hear other people’s journeys, experiences, and their insight and perspective of having gone after a big goal so I wanted to give that to you, my listeners.

I had always heard the term cravings before finding coaching, but never really understood what was going on when I had a craving other than having a really strong desire for something and *needing* to go eat that food or try really hard to say no.
So in this episode, I'm sharing with you my definition of urges and cravings that will help you understand your brain and body and have compassion for yourself.
We'll also dive into what responses are available to you when you have an urge or craving so you can get to know and understand yourself even more.

22. Other People’s Opinions
In this episode, we’re talking about those times when other people have opinions about your weight and share them with you (unsolicited or not) and those times when you’re worried about what other people’s opinions might be.
Unless you live alone in a people-less community without the internet, there will be opportunities for people to have opinions and/or for you to wonder what people might be thinking about your weight loss journey.
So I say, let’s just get ahead of the game and go ahead and address it. We’ll dive into why this happens, both people giving you unsolicited comments about your weight and why we assume and sometimes fixate on what others might be thinking.
You’ll leave this episode knowing what your options are, whether you want to share your journey with others or not, and how to handle when people share their opinions with you.

21. Why Weight Loss Feels Hard Part 2
Join me on a walk today as we talk more about weight loss and why it feels hard.
I’m a fan of making anything and everything simple, especially weight loss, but I’m also not oblivious.
Sometimes life is hard. And when life is hard, losing weight can feel hard, too.
During those times or seasons of life, the answer isn’t to give up or get down on yourself.
As you’ll hear in today’s episode, the answer is to understand and have compassion. When you bring those two in the mix, weight loss doesn’t have to be a struggle anymore. Then we can drop the hard.

20. Desire Life More Than Food
One of my favorite taglines that I've ever come up with is this: "We desire life more than food".
Losing weight is so much easier when food isn't the star of the show. For me, it was for many, many years so learning how to desire life more than food was a wild idea and seemed impossible.
In today's episode, we're going to dive deep into what it means to desire life more than food and why it could be a game-changer for you on your weight loss journey.
We'll also take a look at what it means to desire food more than life so you'll know how to recognize this if that's where you are. And of course, we'll talk about what you can do moving forward if you want to be a person who desires life more than food.

18. Body Thoughts
We’re talking about body thoughts in this episode.
I’ve never heard anyone dive deep into their thoughts about bodies like we are in today’s episode.
We’re not just talking about whether you like your body or not, we're exploring your thoughts about your body, your beliefs about how bodies should or shouldn’t be in general, and whether those beliefs might be coming from.
At the beginning of working with a new client, I always ask my client why they want to lose weight.
Many times our reason for losing weight and changing our bodies is due to old, outdated beliefs about bodies.
So in this episode, I want you to get open and curious with yourself as we dive into your past beliefs about your body, current beliefs, and then get super intentional with what you want your future beliefs about your body to be.
I’ll take you through the different sources you might be using to inform your beliefs about bodies right now (intentionally and unintentionally) and how to change those beliefs if you so decide to moving forward.
Your body thoughts are an important part of your weight loss journey. Get some awareness around your body thoughts to see how that’s affecting your current weight loss journey.
Don’t skip this episode. Grab your pen and paper and get ready to get open and curious with yourself.
If you loved this episode, give it 5 stars and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform for others to learn about as well!

15. The Hunger and Fullness Scale
We've mentioned it enough on the podcast so far and now it's finally here: the hunger scale episode!
I have very few (and simple) tools in my toolbelt when it comes to losing weight and maintaining that weight loss with ease. The hunger scale is one of those tools.
In this episode, we'll dive into what the hunger scale is, how I use it, why it's such a powerful tool on your weight loss journey, and how you can start using it today.
I also like to call it the hunger and fullness scale because we're teaching ourselves to pay attention to our body's sensations both when we're hungry and when we're satisfied. We'll cover what it means to pay attention to your body's signals and to purposefully open up that mind/body connection.
Listen to this episode and then go implement this tool. Practice using the hunger scale and see what it's like to intentionally tune in to what your body is trying to tell you throughout the day.
When you're well-practiced at using your hunger and fullness scale and listening to your body's signals, weight loss and maintenance are a breeze.

And share this episode with your fellow Life Coaches who would love to add this tool to their toolbelt!

13. Know Your Why
Welcome to episode 13 of the podcast!
We’re talking about your “why” on your weight loss journey on today’s episode.
You might have heard this idea of knowing your why and using your why to stay motivated while you’re going after your goals.
We’re taking this idea and applying it to weight loss journey, why it’s so important to know your why, and how it makes your journey easier. Yes, easier.
It can already be an uncomfortable and difficult journey at times to lose weight by changing your beliefs around food and your emotions, but it’s so much easier to do so when you have a strong foundation to keep you strong and keep you going when it gets hard.
We’ll also talk about how knowing your why can help you with obstacles on your journey, learning and using new skills like evaluating, and when fear & doubt pop up while you're losing weight.
Lastly, we’ll cover how to create your why and I’ll go over a process I take my clients through to help out with this (it’s one of my clients’ favorite parts of our work together!).
If you loved this episode, rate it 5 stars and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform!

10. The Love Paradox
Welcome to episode 10 of the podcast!
We’re talking about The Love Paradox today, a foundational concept I use in my daily life and in my coaching.
It’s starting to turn out that every 5th episode will be a big one! (I wonder what’s coming for episode 15…)
This is one of my favorite concepts I’ve created from ideas so many wonderful coaches and mentors have taught me and then added my own touch to.
I’ll be teaching you exactly what the Love Paradox is in today’s episode and how it applies to your weight loss journey.
We’ll be talking about the type of fuel you might be using to motivate yourself to keep from getting stuck and how that might not be the most useful fuel no matter what we’ve been taught or taught ourselves.
I’ll share with you what I think is the most powerful fuel to get you motivated, committed, and compelled into action on your journey, oh, and that feels really good to use.
Of course, I’ll be sharing with you some powerful questions to help you mine your own brain for gold on this journey of using the Love Paradox moving forward (and to see how you might already be using it right now…).

8. Short-Term and Long-Term Goals
Welcome to episode 8 of the podcast!
We’re talking all about goals in this episode. We’re coaches so of course we love growing & goals! And now I’m giving you the opportunity to double down on that love in the short-term and long-term!
In episode 3, we talked about how to set a weight loss goal. In this episode, we’re diving even deeper into goals and breaking them down between short-term and long-term and why both are so important and useful on your weight loss journey.
I recommend setting a long-term goal, whether it’s weight loss, body love or confidence, strength or endurance, or health-related. Listen in for the three reasons I recommend long-term goals and how to use them to live the life you really want.
I recommend setting short-term goals to learn how to experiment, test solutions, double up on celebrating, and evaluate (and of course to make hitting your long-term goal a no-brainer).
We’ll dive even deeper into the purposes of short-term and long-term goals in the episode and I’ll share with you my own weight loss and health goals for examples.
Warning: we never set goals because we believe we’ll be better off when we hit the goal compared to where we are now. Not on this podcast! Listen in to learn more about why we DO set them (here’s a hint: growing and having fun are involved!).

7. It’s Done Energy
Welcome to episode 7 of the podcast!
Y’all, this one might be my new favorite episode of the podcast so far…
We’re talking all about “it’s done” energy, what it is, what it means, and why I recommend it on your weight loss journey.
In comparison, we talk about “we’ll see” energy, in which you doubt yourself and your end goal, and feel that low-level disappointment all along on your journey.
I’ll show you why your brain shies away from being in “it’s done” energy, what to do about it, and why I don’t recommend losing weight any other way.
Lastly, I’ll take you through an example when I went through a hard goal/challenge and decided to be in “it’s done” energy anyway, and how that did a 180 on my relationship with myself and setting goals.

4. Weight Loss Coaching Is More Important Than...
Welcome to episode 4 of the podcast!
It's getting real this week, y'all.
In this episode, I'm giving you permission to prioritize weight loss, emotional eating, body love, and/or your health journey (we're grouping them all in with weight loss coaching for the purposes of this episode and topic).
I would have wanted someone to give me this podcast when I first started my journey so I recorded this for you.
We're talking about the two reasons weight loss coaching is more important than, or as important as, anything else you're working on in your life.
Just a reminder, I'm a proponent of doing two big things at once. You can hear more about that in an earlier episode.
I'm on a mission to change the narrative around prioritizing our body and ourselves no matter what else we're doing in our lives.
So do two things at once AND here's your permission to prioritize your weight loss and health journey above it all.
My goal is for Life Coaches to be as excited to work on their body, relationship with their body, relationship with food, and their health as they are to work on their business.
In this episode, we'll talk about why that's so important *and beneficial* for you, your business, and your life.
