Description

Let me ask you something — and be honest with yourself here…

Have you ever lost weight…
Hit a milestone…
Got compliments from other people…
And still felt like it wasn’t enough?

Like the moment to finally feel proud should’ve come… but didn’t?

If you're nodding, this episode is 100% for you.
Because today, we’re talking about that disconnect, the emotional gap between what you’re doing and how you feel about yourself while doing it.

This episode is all about:

  • Why pride doesn’t automatically land when the scale drops

  • The “identity lag” so many of us experience after weight loss

  • And how to finally see yourself differently so you can own your progress — emotionally, not just physically

I share the story of a client who had lost 3 stone but still couldn’t let herself feel her progress…
And I open up about my own identity battles too, how even after losing 12 stone and maintaining for years, I had moments where pride still felt out of reach.

This one’s deep. Reflective. And might just unlock something you’ve been carrying silently.

Because you’re not a failure if you’re struggling to feel proud. You’re just still learning to see yourself differently.
