Description

If gaining weight feels like failure — this episode is for you. Today I am sharing my own experience with weight gain, body image, and identity as a high-achieving woman who built her worth around being “the fit one.”

It's easy to talk about the tips and tricks that you can do to fixing your metabolism & getting the weight back off (in a healthy way)... but it's not often that we talk about the mental rollercoaster of a healing journey, so that's what you're getting in todays episode.

This episode isn’t about macros or reverse dieting (though that’s part of it) — it’s about the emotional rewiring that has to happen before your body can truly change.


Some chats:

  • Why weight gain is often a sign your body is trying to protect you — not punish you

  • The ego voices that keep you stuck in over-restriction and burnout

  • What real discipline looks like in a healing season

  • How to reframe success when fat loss isn’t the focus

  • Practical mindset tools to rebuild confidence from the inside out


💛 Sometimes weight gain isn’t the setback — it’s the setup for your next level of healing, strength, and self-confidence.
