What if the secret to losing 5% body fat after 40 had nothing to do with counting calories, cutting carbs, or white-knuckling your way through every meal? Jaclyn thought she was doing everything right. She was working out, eating "healthy," and still couldn't figure out why her body wasn't changing. Sound familiar? This episode is going to hit different.In this week's episode, I'm sitting down with Jaclyn, a working mom of two, hot pilates lover, and current MWLA client who lost 12-14 pounds and 5% body fat without tracking a single calorie, feeling deprived, or skipping the pasta at Thanksgiving. Yes, she joined right before the holidays. And yes, it was absolutely the right call. She shares how she almost talked herself out of investing in herself, what finally made her say yes, and why staying in the program longer than she planned ended up being the thing that actually got her to her goal.We're getting into the mindset shifts that changed everything for her, including why she hasn't felt "full" since November and why that is a really good thing, how eating past the point of satisfied was silently sabotaging her progress, and what finally helped her break the clean plate club habit she'd had her whole life. We also talk about the moment she realized too many healthy fats were quietly stalling her results, what her one-on-one coach Danielle helped her tweak, and how she wore a two-piece on vacation in April with full confidence for the first time in years.If you've been doing all the things and still feel stuck, Jaclyn's story is your sign.xoxo,JackieP.S.

How many gut health supplements are in your cabinet right now? The probiotic from that Instagram ad, the fiber powder your friend swears by, the multivitamin you've been taking for years without really knowing why. Maybe you even paid for a gut test that gave you a laundry list of foods to avoid, even though you feel totally fine eating them. If you've been wondering whether any of it is actually helping your weight loss, this episode is going to clear up a lot.When I rebranded the show, I said no outside guests. Then my dad called me with a podcast idea, and for once, it was a really good one. I'm sitting down with Dr. Michael Liss, a surgeon scientist at UC San Diego, a urologist focused on prostate cancer, and the director of clinical trials for UCSD's microbiome innovation center. He studies the tiny friends living in your gut for a living, and he's refreshingly honest about what the science does and doesn't know yet.We get into what the microbiome actually is in plain English, why he says most supplements just give you very expensive poop, and why probiotics rarely make a real difference while fiber and fermented foods do. We also talk about what at-home gut tests are really telling you (one person sent the same sample to seven or eight companies and got very different results), how stress and bad sleep mess with your gut, and the fiber habit that can help your GLP-1 work better.If you're tired of spending money on the next gut health fix and just want to know what to put on your plate, this one is for you. Fiber is the new protein.

It is Halloween week. And right now either the candy bowl is hidden somewhere you cannot easily access it because you do not trust yourself around it, or it is sitting on the counter and you have already eaten seventeen fun size Snickers telling yourself each one does not really count. And either way you are dreading the next morning. This episode is your permission slip to do Halloween completely differently this year.In this episode I am giving you four mindful eating strategies that will completely change how you experience Halloween candy this weekend. Not strategies to avoid it. Not strategies to limit yourself to one piece and white-knuckle the rest. Strategies to actually enjoy it, fully and without guilt, and wake up November 1st still on track. Because that is what is possible when you stop fighting the candy and start working with it.We are talking about the fun size myth that is secretly causing you to eat more than you ever intended, why giving yourself full unconditional permission is actually the key to eating less not more, why eating before you trick or treat changes everything about how the night goes, and why November 1st is a continuation not a fresh start and requires zero guilt and zero restarting.Halloween candy is not the enemy of your weight loss. Your relationship with Halloween candy is. And today we fix that. Press play and let's make this the first Halloween you actually enjoy without the morning spiral.xoxo,JackieMORE FROM JACKIE: << Ready to lose weight, fix your metabolism & reach your body transformation goals without restriction?

It is October. There are three months left in 2026. And if you are sitting here with that familiar feeling of I cannot believe another year is almost over and I still have not figured this out — this episode is your wake up call. Not a guilt trip. Not a pressure campaign. A genuine reminder that three months is not nothing. Three months is everything. And what you do between now and December 31st has the power to completely change how you walk into 2027.In this episode I am giving you the three things you need to do right now…not in January, not after the holidays, right now in October to make sure 2026 does not end the same way it has been going. We are talking about dropping the story that it is too late and resetting your mindset today, getting back to the basics that actually work instead of overhauling everything at once, and making your holiday plan now before Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas arrive and derail you.Here is what I know for sure after 9 years of coaching women through this exact season. The women who finish the year feeling proud are not the ones who had a perfect year. They are the ones who refused to wait for January to get serious. January is not magic. January 1st is just another day with a different number. The woman who starts in October has three full months of results before January even arrives.October is your January. The reset you have been waiting for does not live in a calendar. It lives in a decision. Press play and let's make that decision together right now.xoxo,JackieMORE FROM JACKIE: << Ready to lose weight, fix your metabolism & reach your body transformation goals without restriction?

Your doctor tells you your cholesterol is through the roof. Then the next year, same thing. And she looks you dead in the eye and says if it keeps going like this, we're putting you on medication. You're 37 years old with two kids and you are not about to accept that. So what do you do? Christan changed her eating, and three months later her doctor looked at her blood work and literally said, what are you doing? Because her cholesterol had been cut in half.In this episode, I'm sitting down with Christan Nicholas, a working mom of two from Connecticut who came into my world after burning out hard on calorie counting. She lost weight with her previous program, sure, but she told me point blank she could not live like that forever. When she found out we don't count a single calorie inside Mindful Weight Loss Academy, she thought we were crazy. A few months later, her LDLs dropped to normal range, she lost 10 pounds, she is the strongest she has ever been, and her doctor is still talking about her results.We get into all of it in this episode. How Christan completely rewired the way she thinks about food, why she stopped using the scale and why that was actually the right call for her, how her coach Casey's voice is now permanently living in her head at every single meal, how she is navigating dining out, barbecues, vacations, and pizza nights without restriction or guilt, and why starting right before the holidays in December was one of the best decisions she ever made.If you have been told your cholesterol is high, if you are exhausted from tracking every bite, or if you just want to feel strong and healthy in your body without living inside a fitness app, this one is for you.xoxo,JackieP.S.
