Description

If you’ve ever felt like your body changed overnight after 40 and nothing seems to “work” anymore, you’re not alone. The truth is, it’s not your fault. In this episode, I’m exposing the five biggest lies the diet industry still wants you to believe and what really works for lasting health.


The $150 billion industry, with a 90% failure rate, has fed women with decades of misinformation that’s kept them trapped in diet culture. From believing that weight loss equals health to obsessing over calories and goal weights, I share why these outdated beliefs are keeping you stuck.


I also share real stories from clients who transformed their lives not through restriction, but by learning how to balance their blood sugar, rebuild trust with their bodies, and redefine what “working” truly means. If you’re tired of chasing diets that leave you feeling defeated, I will help you reclaim your health, confidence, and freedom.


Conclusion:

It’s time to stop believing the lies that diets sell us and start rewriting the rules of health. When you focus on thriving, not restricting, you’ll finally experience the energy, balance, and confidence you’ve been chasing for years. Remember: if you want something different, you’ve got to do something different.
