EP 284. How to Become Unrecognizable in 2026
If you're doing what you did last January and getting what you got last February (disappointed, frustrated, right back where you started), this episode is for you.
I'm giving you the real talk about why your old weight loss strategies stopped working after 40. Spoiler: it's not because you lack discipline. You lack DATA.
In this episode, I'm breaking down the five specific decisions that will actually move the needle on your weight loss, your energy, and your body composition. These aren't the surface fixes you've been trying. These are the foundational shifts that make everything else work.
One of my clients literally cleaned her living room and lost 10 pounds. I know it sounds wild, but I explain exactly how your external environment is directly connected to your internal chaos (and your food choices).
Plus, I'm sharing my own journey with insulin resistance. My fasting insulin went from 6.8 to 4.8 over 20 months, and that shift changed everything about how my body burns fat, regulates appetite, and maintains energy.
What You’ll Walk Away Understanding:
Why your doctor's version of "fine" is keeping you fat, exhausted, and hormonally wrecked (and what labs you actually need to request)
The birth control vs. HRT double standard that no one talks about (birth control has 10X the clot risk but doctors hand it out like Skittles)
How cleaning ONE space in your home can break the mental clutter that's sabotaging your food choices (this is the breakthrough most women never see coming)
The exact protein target you need to preserve muscle and actually change your body composition after 40 (hint: it's way more than you're eating now)
Why daily weigh-ins are sabotaging you and what to track instead (weekly averages will save your sanity)
How to know if you're a simple case or complex case (and whether you need group coaching or private 1:1 support)
The real cost of NOT solving your weight loss struggle this year (it's not just financial)
If you're tired of spinning your wheels and ready to work WITH your body instead of against it, this episode gives you the complete roadmap.
