What happens when you grow up in a family of nine, where mealtimes are a race to grab food before it’s gone?

For Joanne, it meant eating fast, struggling with portions, and carrying those habits well into adulthood. Add in the challenges of menopause, the stress of caregiving, and the weight gain that followed—and she felt stuck.

In this week’s episode, Joanne opens up about her journey and how she turned it all around. Through the Shift process, she created a powerful vision for herself—one that not only helped her achieve her goals but also maintain them.

If you’ve ever felt like your eating habits were set in stone, or that life changes (like menopause or caregiving) made it “too late” to feel good again, Joanne’s story will inspire you.

Tune in now to hear how she made the shift.
