Hi friends! I have a new podcast episode live and I’m so thrilled to share a solo episode with you all about a super common and often frustrating topic: Why it’s hard to lose weight, even when you feel like you’re doing all the things!
183: Why You’re Not Losing Weight (Even When You’re Doing All The Things!)
Here’s what we discuss:
Why “calories in versus calories out” isn’t the whole story when it comes to weight loss.
The crucial role of mindset and stress in weight loss resistance, and how to calm your nervous system.
Why under-eating might be tanking your metabolism, and how reverse dieting can help rebuild it.
The impact of hormonal imbalances (estrogen, progesterone, thyroid) on your weight loss journey.
The often-overlooked connection between gut health (parasites, Candida, SIBO) and inflammation/weight loss resistance.
How over-exercising (especially too much HIIT and cardio without enough strength training) can backfire.
The importance of mineral balance and how things like stress, caffeine, and sweating can deplete essential nutrients.
The hidden impact of toxin load from our environment on hormones and metabolism, and gentle ways to support detox pathways.
Why doing more isn’t always the answer, and the importance of self-kindness, patience, and playing the long game for sustainable results.
and so.much.more!

If any of my fellow health professional friends are looking for another way to help their clients, I highly recommend IHP. You can also use this information to heal yourself and then go one to heal others, which I think is a beautiful mission. You can absolutely join if you don’t currently work in the health or fitness industry; many IHPs don’t begin on this path. They’re friends who are passionate to learn more about health and wellness, and want to share this information with those they love. You can do this as a passion, or start an entirely new career.
