The Healthy Me Reset

Rejection stings in a way few things do. Whether it's a relationship, a friendship, a job, or even being overlooked by the people you care about, that moment of feeling unseen can leave a deep mark on your mind, body, and spirit.

It's about reclaiming your identity, protecting your peace, and recognizing that rejection is often redirection.

What about relationships that feel unfixable? The ones that hurt so bad because you want to make them healthy but you just can't seem to even open the door to progress.  Or feelings that just sit there. The feelings you can't make go away that send you running back to the cabinet to avoid.  I'm a fixer. Not just the kind who buys into the quick solutions that don't actually work anymore. The kind who wants to make hard things better—faster, smoother, healthier. But some struggles don't have simple fixes. In Part 2 of this series, I'm sharing how I've learned to face the "unfixable" in two of the hardest areas: relationships and emotions. From navigating painful family conflict to working through anxiety and grief, I've seen how powerful it is to separate facts from the stories we tell ourselves, to shift thoughts that keep us stuck, and to show up in love even when it feels impossible . This isn't about avoiding pain—it's about finding healing in the middle of it. If you've ever felt weighed down by conflict, stuck in anxious spirals, or undone by loss, I hope this episode gives you permission to breathe and believe that change is still possible.

I'm a fixer. And not just the "let me tighten that screw" kind of fixer. I'm the kind of person who sees a problem and immediately wants to make it better—faster, smoother, healthier. And there's nothing more frustrating than not having a simple solution.  When you find you made the problemn worse instead of better.  Those are the unfixable parts of life that hit us all - and what I'm sharing solutions to on this 2 part series of episodes on the podcast.  Whether your unfixable is your physical body, your weight, your health or a relationship that just keeps getting worse or feelings that are overwhelming your life, unfixable issues are there for all of us.  Where you start to fix the unfixable is a master skill I learned through coaching.  And I'm sharing the first steps on the podcast this week.  In this episode, I'm sharing the shifts that helped me approach the "unfixable" in a whole new way—the moments I realized that pushing harder wasn't the answer, and that real change often comes when we stop trying to force it. These stories aren't just about physical health; they're about how we see ourselves, how we respond to challenges, and how we create space for healing to actually happen. So whether you're in the middle of burnout, frustrated by your health journey, or just feeling stuck in a place you can't quite shift, I hope this episode feels like an exhale of that breath you didn't know you were holding. And if you've faced something in your life that once felt unfixable, I'd love to hear your story. Because the truth is, those moments often hold the greatest potential for growth.

I'm a total book nerd. And I'm also a bit of a book snob. They have to be well-written to entertain me and well-researched with something new to say to help me grow. If that's your story, you are my kind of reader.  And most of my listeners are.  I get asked about what books I read or specific titles for reference more than any other question.  That's why I've decided to start sharing my favorite reads twice a year with my listeners.  In this episode, I'm sharing the books that stayed with me this year—the ones that didn't just entertain or inform, but helped me grow. These reads touched every part of my health journey: my boundaries, my body, my energy, my rest, and my relationships. Some offered practical tools. Others felt like deep permission slips—reminding me that rest is not lazy, boundaries are not harsh, and healing doesn't have to look like constant doing. This conversation isn't a list of recommendations—it's a reflection on what it means to find a good book that touches your heart. To find yourself in a chapter. To finally name an experience you've been carrying silently. To exhale when a sentence meets you right where you are. So whether you're in the thick of burnout, craving softness, rethinking your relationships, or just looking for something that speaks to your season—I hope this episode feels like a quiet nudge toward the kind of books that hold you and challenge you. And if you've read something this year that cracked you open or put you back together, I'd love to hear about it. My shelf is always waiting. It's a little cramped but there's always room for one more.  Want to go deeper in your own reset? Join the waitlist for my next Healthy Me Reset at www.emilyvinzantmd.com.

Think skipping meals will help you take control of your body and finally lose the weight? Find yourself spiraling into extremes—cutting out food, then overeating again? Ever decide to fast out of punishment, not purpose? You may have fallen into the trap of the revenge fast. It's a cycle of shame and desperation disguised as discipline. And while it feels like you're taking charge, it's actually costing you your health—physically, mentally, and spiritually. I've been there. I've let frustration with my body turn into punishment with food. In this episode, I'm unpacking the moment I realized my "reset" was really just revenge—and how I turned it around. Because true healing isn't about control. It's about compassion. It's about listening to your body, not lashing out at it. If you're stuck in a cycle of shame and want to break free for good, it's time for a different kind of reset—the kind that heals, not harms. Join the waitlist for my Healthy Me Reset. A small group is starting soon at www.emilyvinzantmd.com. Let's walk this journey together.

Ever find yourself avoiding events, skipping photos, or putting off life because of how you feel in your body? Catch yourself thinking, "I'll do that when I've lost the weight…"? You may just be stuck in Hiding Mode. It's subtle. It's sneaky. And it shows up not just in our relationship with food—but in how we show up (or don't) for our lives. Whether it's grief, trauma, people-pleasing, or perfectionism, hiding mode is how many of us cope when life feels too big or we feel too small. But living in hiding keeps you from your truest physical, mental, and spiritual health. I've been there. For years, I let my weight and body image determine what I said yes to, and more painfully, what I avoided. In this episode, I'm opening up about what Hiding Mode really is, how to recognize when you step into it, and how to start stepping out of it. Because healing starts when we stop waiting for "someday" and begin showing up now. That's the kind of health reset that matters most. If you're ready to stop shrinking yourself and start stepping into the life God has for you, join the waitlist for my Healthy Me Reset. A small group is starting soon. Join me at www.emilyvinzantmd.com and let's begin.

Know that your relationship with food is unhealthy? Find yourself turning to food to feel better when you struggle emotionally? Think food is the one thing you don't want to give up to lose weight and get healthy? You may just have a food idol on your hands.  It's a cheap, accessible, and easily justifiable idol, especially in our culture today.  But that relationship stands in the way of your true physical, mental, and spiritual health.  I struggled with the food idol for years. That's why in this episode I'm sharing what I've learned through my own health reset to make food an object, not an idol.  That change can bring your closer to God while creating freedom from that life-long health and weight battle you've been struggling with.  That's the kind of health reset that matters most.  If you're ready to reset your relationship with food while you improve your physical, mental, and spiritual health, you've got to join the waitlist for my Healthy Me Reset. A small group will be starting soon. Join me at www.emilyvinzantmd.com and let's begin.

Are You a Food Addict? Feel like you're constantly battling your cravings? You're not the only one. In this episode, I'm getting real about food addiction—the guilt, the frustration, and the confusion that comes with feeling out of control around food. Whether it's chips, sugar, or late-night snacking, it can feel like you're stuck in a cycle you can't escape. But here's what I want you to know: it's not about willpower. It's about wiring. I'm diving into the signs of food addiction, how it's different from emotional eating, and what might really be going on behind your toughest habits. I'll also share what healing has looked like in my own journey—hint: it's not about perfection, it's about awareness. Plus, I'll guide you through the first steps to breaking free without shame or restriction.

Can you really maintain your health goals without healthy constantly rebounding or striving for more? What if the secret to success wasn't found in pushing harder—but in learning how to maintain? That's exactly what I'm diving into in this week's episode of the podcast. With so much noise out there about weight loss, progress, and transformation, maintenance often gets overlooked. But here's the truth: choosing to stay the course—especially when it feels ordinary—is a powerful act of self-leadership. I'm sharing what it actually means to live in maintenance mode, how to break free from the pressure to always be progressing, and the mindset shifts that will help you find peace, confidence, and sustainability in your journey. If you've ever felt like maintaining your health isn't "enough," this episode will change the way you see your progress. You don't have to chase extremes to be successful—you just have to keep showing up. When you're ready to start creating the healthiest you, join the coaching waitlist at www.emilyvinzantmd.com. I'll walk with you every step of the way.
