Thin Thinking Podcast

Have you ever noticed how quickly your mood can shift… and then blamed yourself for it? Like you should just think more positively or try harder to control your mindset? In this week's episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast, I'm joined by Jenn Trepeck for a conversation that many of you will find incredibly freeing: 👉 Your mood isn't just about mindset — it's about biochemistry. Neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin are literally built from the food you eat. They're influenced by your gut health and disrupted by stress, toxins, alcohol, caffeine, sugar, and even constant digital stimulation. Jenn, author of Uncomplicating Wellness, breaks down what "biohacking your mood" actually means — in a way that's practical, grounded, and refreshingly sane. If winter has left you feeling heavy, foggy, or emotionally off balance, this episode will give you real, science-backed levers you can start using right away. So put away those winter clouds… and come on in and listen!   Jenn's FREE Guide: It's not What to Eat, It's How to Eat   In This Episode, You'll Also Learn… How your mood is shaped by biochemistry — including how neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin depend on the nutrients you eat and the health of your gut. The everyday factors that can disrupt emotional balance, from processed foods and alcohol to stress, toxins, sleep issues, and constant digital stimulation. Practical, science-backed ways to support better mood and brain function through nutrition, gut health, movement, sunlight, and simple lifestyle shifts.   Links Mentioned in the Episode: Jenn's Supplement Guide Jenn's Book: Uncomplicating Wellness: Ditch the Rules.

Getting sick can really mess with your weight mastery! And I don't just mean missing a workout or two. When you're sick, everything feels off. Your appetite changes. Your routines disappear. Your skills feel shaky. And suddenly all those "sick foods" start looking a little too comforting. That's exactly why this week's podcast episode exists. In this episode, I walk you through how to stay grounded in your identity as a weight master, even when your body isn't cooperating and how to keep continuity with food and movement—yes, even if that movement is literally wiggling your toes (it counts) This isn't about being perfect while you're sick. It's about staying connected to who you are, even during recovery—so getting better doesn't turn into "starting over."

What if your workouts didn't have to be long, exhausting, or something you had to psych yourself up for? ​In today's podcast episode​, I'm joined by Cam Allen, a fitness expert who works specifically with midlife women—and she's sharing a reframe around exercise and consistency that I absolutely love. Cam opens up about a personal shift she made when she stopped believing workouts had to be hard and time-consuming to be effective. By experimenting with shorter, more focused strength workouts, she discovered something powerful: more consistency, more energy, and better results. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by your fitness routine—or stuck in the "I'll start when I have more time" loop—this episode is for you.

Hey friend, Let's talk about consistency for a moment. Because real consistency isn't about never getting off track. It's about knowing exactly what to do when you do—and getting yourself back on track quickly, calmly, and without all the drama. In this upcoming podcast episode, I'm walking you through five key steps that do exactly that. Think of it like this: You've been driving on that old, exhausting highway—start, stop, guilt, frustration, repeat. This episode helps you build a bridge to a new road of consistency—one that supports momentum, weight release, and long-term mastery instead of burnout. No white-knuckling. No "starting over on Monday." Just a steadier, more sustainable way forward. So if you're ready for a little road trip into new territory, come on in and press play when the episode drops.

Winter has a way of showing us the challenges we managed to avoid during the summer. January rolls in with colder temperatures, darker mornings, comfort-food cravings, and routines that suddenly feel much harder to maintain. If you've noticed your motivation dip or your consistency feel shaky, I want you to hear this clearly: It's not that you're failing. It's that winter demands a different approach. When hibernation mode kicks in, movement naturally decreases, energy feels lower, and it can start to feel like your progress is slipping away. That's exactly why I recorded this new episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast. This isn't about pushing harder or "powering through." It's about learning how to work with winter instead of fighting it. So grab a blanket, get cozy, and join me for a conversation that will help you turn this season into one of strength, calm, and true weight mastery.

The beginning of a new year often brings pressure. Pressure to reset. Pressure to undo the holidays. Pressure to "get serious" about weight—fast. But before you jump into another plan, rule, or reset, today's episode invites you to slow down and look at what actually determines long-term success. Because lasting weight mastery doesn't start with food, exercise, or willpower. It starts with your relationship with yourself. In this episode, we focus on reconnecting with you—so your weight journey in 2026 isn't another cycle of starting strong and fading out, but a grounded, sustainable path forward.

Have you ever noticed that when your stress is high, everything feels off? Your hunger cues, your digestion, your energy… even the way you talk to yourself? There's a reason for that — and it's not because you're doing anything wrong. In this week's Thin Thinking Podcast episode, I sat down with PTSD expert Joanne Williams for a powerful conversation about what happens when the brain gets stuck on high alert. When our nervous system is constantly bracing for impact, it affects everything from our gut health to our emotional eating patterns — often leaving us with shame, self-blame, and the feeling that we can't trust our own bodies. If you've ever wondered why you turn to food when stress is high, or why your body sometimes feels like it's working against you, this episode brings both clarity and compassion — plus practical tools you can use right away. So take a deep breath… and come on in.   In This Episode, You'll Also Learn… The 4–8 Breathing Technique — a simple, science-backed way to calm your system in the moment. A rapid vagus nerve reset you can use anytime stress spikes. Joanne's "Three Brains" framework — gut, heart, and head — and how it helps move you out of reactivity and into conscious choice.   Links Mentioned in the Episode: Joanne's Email Joanne's Podcast Channel Schedule a FREE Focused Call with Joanne here Joanne's Website Joanne's Facebook Joanne's Instagram Joanne's Linkedin Joanne's Alignable Joanne's Tiktok Joanne's Youtube Join my FREE Masterclass: "How to Stop the "Start Over Tomorrow" Weight Struggle Cycle and Begin Releasing Weight for Good."

It's here!  There is something so magical about baking during the holidays. Even if we barely touch an oven the rest of the year, somehow December arrives and suddenly we're whipping up cookies, breads, pies, and all the nostalgic treats that make the season feel whole.

Happy Thanksgiving!  Let's be honest for a moment… This weekend is basically the Olympics of old family patterns, emotional eating triggers, and conversations you definitely did not sign up for—sprinkled, of course, with a little gratitude. So I thought: What better time to share something powerful I brought home from Tony Robbins' Unleash the Power Within last month? If Tony can get people walking on fire (yes, including me!), then surely we can get through Thanksgiving without diving headfirst into the stuffing bowl. In this week's podcast episode, I'm breaking down one of the simplest yet most transformative reminders Tony shared during UPW. It's something you're already doing moment by moment, whether you realize it or not: **You are always making three decisions that shape everything— your day, your mood, your body, your choices… and ultimately, how you feel inside your own skin.** These three decisions influence whether you end the day feeling aligned and powerful—or frazzled and frustrated. In the episode, I walk you through Tony's "Three Decisions," and then, because I love you and I want you to have the calmest, most grounded, gratitude-filled holiday possible… I guide you through a special Thanksgiving version. Think of it as emotional Spanx— It holds you together and smooths everything out.  This is your chance to shift your focus, choose better meaning, and take actions that support you feeling like the healthiest, happiest version of yourself… even in the middle of holiday chaos. So take a deep breath. Drop your shoulders. Release the neck tension you've already built up just thinking about Thursday… And come on in.   Don't miss these discounts! Check out my ​Emotional Eating Toolkit with 50% off​ and the ​SocialLIGHT Toolkit with $80 off! And if you want some more healthy Thanksgiving tips, check out my previous Thanksgiving episode here!   In This Episode, You'll Also Learn… How the three decisions you make moment-by-moment—about focus, meaning, and action—completely determine how you experience your day and whether you feel aligned and powerful. How to shift your focus from what's missing or broken to what's working and what you can control, especially during high-stress holiday gatherings. A guided Thanksgiving meditation to help you choose empowering meanings, set clear intentions, and show up as your highest self this weekend.   Links Mentioned in the Episode: Join my FREE Masterclass:  "How to Stop the "Start Over Tomorrow" Weight Struggle Cycle and Begin Releasing Weight for Good."

So many people in our Thin Thinking community aren't just navigating weight, food, and mindset… they're also carrying quiet anxiety under the surface. And as the holidays approach—with the social events, family expectations, food everywhere, and the pressure to be "on"—that anxiety can really kick into high gear.

Brad and I dive into the kind of practical, grounded tools you can start using immediately—perfect for this season when your nervous system may feel a little extra tender.  It's an empowering, compassionate conversation that I know will support you—especially as we head into a season that can feel overwhelming for even the calmest among us.

Some conversations invite us to slow down. To breathe differently. To step out of the rush of our lives and into the quieter places we often avoid — the ones where grief, memory, and healing wait patiently for us to catch up. Today's episode is one of those conversations. My guest, Barbara Wansbrough, didn't set out to write a book about grief. She set out to take a walk — one that eventually led her through forests, along coastlines, and into the tender terrain of losing her sister. The result is Wild Things: A Geography of Grief, a breathtaking collection of letters that reads like both a love story and a survival guide. In this episode, Barbara shows us that healing doesn't always arrive with dramatic breakthroughs. Sometimes it shows up in the rhythm of your strides, the feel of wind on your face, or the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other when the heart feels heavy. If you've ever found yourself in a season where life asks you to let go, to begin again, or to navigate a loss with no clear map — consider this your invitation. Let's step into the wild and see what it has to teach us. Come on in.   Check out this amazing book! Wild Things: A Geography of Grief by Barbara Wansbrough   In This Episode, You'll Also Learn… How walking can gently re-pattern grief in the body, creating space for clarity, calm, and emotional release. Why small, intentional rituals can soothe the soul more effectively than food, distraction, or "pushing through." How embracing the "wild" parts of grief can lead to unexpected strength, softness, and a deeper sense of belonging in your own life.   Links Mentioned in the Episode: Check out this amazing book!  Join my FREE Masterclass:  "How to Stop the "Start Over Tomorrow" Weight Struggle Cycle and Begin Releasing Weight for Good."   Sign up for the FREE HYPNOSIS DOWNLOAD :  Shift Out of Sugar Cravings My book, From Fat to Thin Thinking: Unlock Your Mind for Permanent Weight Loss (Includes a 30-day hypnosis process.)

Have you ever put off a dream because of your weight? That was Dr. Marie Strenger's reality as well. As an emergency room physician, she spent years caring for everyone else while her own needs kept getting pushed aside. Between exhausting shifts, stress, and that familiar "I'll start again tomorrow," she felt stuck—until she discovered a different path. Through the Shift Weight Mastery Process and hypnosis, Marie began making simple mental and habit shifts: a quick meditation in the car after work, long ocean walks with her husband, and small daily choices that brought her back to herself. The weight came off, the food noise softened, and her energy returned. And then she celebrated in the most unforgettable way—by paragliding over the Dolomites in Italy, soaring into a new chapter with a lighter body and a freer mind. This week's episode, it isn't just about weight loss—it's about freedom, joy, and the confidence to say yes to the life waiting for you. Whether that means a peaceful holiday season, a daily walk, or your own version of flying above the Alps, Marie's story will show you what's possible when you stop "starting over" and start shifting for good.

Remember those permission slips we needed as kids — the ones that let us go on a field trip or try something new? Or the approvals we had to wait for at work before we could move a project forward? Here's the thing… many of us are still waiting for that green light — only now, it's coming from inside our own minds. If you've been stuck in the start-over cycle with your weight, there's a good chance that a deeper part of you hasn't yet granted permission to fully go for long-term success. In this week's episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast, we're diving into the 10 fundamental self-permissions that can shift you out of diet mentality and struggle — and into lasting Weight Mastery. These are the same inner agreements that helped me move from years of yo-yo dieting to 30 years of stable weight release — and the same ones my clients use to finally get off the hamster wheel for good. It's time to stop waiting for someone else's approval — and give yourself permission to succeed. Tune in now to this empowering episode! Come on in!   FREE MASTERCLASS  with Weight Release Hypnosis!

Have you ever known exactly what to do to eat healthy — but still couldn't make it happen? You're not alone. My guest this week, Michelle Wolfson, knows that feeling all too well. As a chef and nutritional manager, she was an expert at helping others manage their diets for all kinds of medical conditions. But behind the scenes, she was struggling — battling her own weight and feeling like an imposter in her own profession. Then something shifted. Michelle has now released 48 pounds and maintained that success for over seven months — not through more willpower or stricter dieting, but through self-compassion and the Shift process. Her story is a powerful reminder that real transformation doesn't come from what we know — it comes from how we think and how we treat ourselves along the way.
