EP 270. How to Lose Weight Consistently (Even When You're Not Motivated)


What if I told you the real reason you keep failing at weight loss has nothing to do with food, hormones, or willpower? It’s because your why is all wrong.

In this episode, I’m sharing the simple-but-powerful activity I use with my clients. This little exercise flips weight loss from punishment into freedom. It’s the anchor that keeps you going, even on days when you’re soooo not motivated.

When you find your Core Why, you stop pushing yourself out of guilt. Instead, you get pulled forward by the woman you’re becoming. Pair that with consistency? Boom. That’s when weight loss stops feeling like punishment and finally becomes your lifestyle.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why surface-level “whys” (like wanting to fit into old clothes) never work

  • How the activity that anchors your motivation

  • The psychology + research behind intrinsic motivation and weight loss success

  • Real client breakthroughs that show how this shifts everything
