Ep 247: Managing Social Anxiety with Brad Robinson
Thin Thinking Podcast
So many people in our Thin Thinking community aren’t just navigating weight, food, and mindset… they’re also carrying quiet anxiety under the surface. And as the holidays approach—with the social events, family expectations, food everywhere, and the pressure to be “on”—that anxiety can really kick into high gear. That’s why I am so excited about this week’s Thin Thinking Podcast episode with Brad Robinson, creator of the Anxiety Project Podcast. Brad and I dive into the kind of practical, grounded tools you can start using immediately—perfect for this season when your...

EP 246: Thin Thinking Reads: Wild Things: A Geography of Grief
Thin Thinking Podcast
Some conversations invite us to slow down. To breathe differently. To step out of the rush of our lives and into the quieter places we often avoid — the ones where grief, memory, and healing wait patiently for us to catch up. Today’s episode is one of those conversations. My guest, Barbara Wansbrough, didn’t set out to write a book about grief. She set out to take a walk — one that eventually led her through forests, along coastlines, and into the tender terrain of losing her sister. The result is Wild Things: A Geography of Grief, a breathtaking collection of letters...

Thin Thinking Podcast
Have you ever put off a dream because of your weight? That was Dr. Marie Strenger’s reality as well. As an emergency room physician, she spent years caring for everyone else while her own needs kept getting pushed aside. Between exhausting shifts, stress, and that familiar “I’ll start again tomorrow,” she felt stuck—until she discovered a different path. Through the Shift Weight Mastery Process and hypnosis, Marie began making simple mental and habit shifts: a quick meditation in the car after work, long ocean walks with her husband, and small daily choices that brought her back to...

Ep 243: Permission to be Thin and 9 other Self Permissions for Long-Term Weight Success
Thin Thinking Podcast
Remember those permission slips we needed as kids — the ones that let us go on a field trip or try something new? Or the approvals we had to wait for at work before we could move a project forward? Here’s the thing… many of us are still waiting for that green light — only now, it’s coming from inside our own minds. If you’ve been stuck in the start-over cycle with your weight, there’s a good chance that a deeper part of you hasn’t yet granted permission to fully go for long-term success. In this week’s episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast, we’re diving into the 10...

Ep 240: Hilary’s Journey to Weight Maintenance, Body Image, and Food Freedom
Thin Thinking Podcast
In this week’s Thin Thinking episode, I sit down with Hillary—a Shift Process graduate and personal chef—whose story around weight, food, and self-image is both unique and deeply relatable. Growing up in New York with a father who was a fashion photographer in the 1970s, Hillary was surrounded by the glossy, airbrushed world of ultra-thin models. Even though her own weight fluctuations were only 12–15 pounds, the emotional toll of yo-yo dieting left her feeling frustrated, doubtful, and never quite “enough.” But today, nine months into successful weight maintenance, Hillary has...
