In early February, I took a road trip to Sebastopol in Sonoma County, California — right in the heart of wine country… cheese country… bread country. Basically the Disneyland of delicious food. And before I left, I gave myself a little challenge. Could I fully enjoy the trip — eat at restaurants, explore the local food scene, indulge in everything Sonoma has to offer — and still stay around 1,500 calories a day? In this week’s episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast, I’m taking you along for the ride. I’ll share exactly how I navigated road trip snacks, restaurant menus, and all...

If you’ve ever eaten not because you were physically hungry, but because you were stressed, lonely, overwhelmed, or simply done with the day — this episode is for you. Emotional eating isn’t really about food. It’s about wiring. When your brain learns that food equals relief, it will keep sending you there automatically, even when part of you knows that’s not what you actually need. In this week’s episode, I’m breaking down why this pattern repeats and, more importantly, how to step out of it. We’ll talk about identity, emotional mastery, and one simple daily tool you can use...

Have you ever noticed how quickly your mood can shift… and then blamed yourself for it? Like you should just think more positively or try harder to control your mindset? In this week’s episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast, I’m joined by Jenn Trepeck for a conversation that many of you will find incredibly freeing: 👉 Your mood isn’t just about mindset — it’s about biochemistry. Neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin are literally built from the food you eat. They’re influenced by your gut health and disrupted by stress, toxins, alcohol, caffeine, sugar, and even constant...

Have you ever reached a goal weight and expected to feel confident… only to feel uneasy instead? That’s exactly what happened to Millie. After releasing 60 pounds and maintaining her weight for nearly a year, she’s about to celebrate her first Weight Mastery anniversary. But when she first arrived at her ideal weight, something unexpected showed up — imposter syndrome. That quiet voice whispering: Who do you think you are? You’ve failed before. This won’t last.

If your eyes burn, sting, feel dry, or get blurry after screen time, you’re not alone—and this episode was made for you.

Many people don’t realize what’s happening until the symptoms become hard to ignore. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Pam Theriot, who brings clarity and calm to a topic that affects so many of us. This conversation is clear, empowering, and full of small, doable shifts that can make a real...

And more importantly… that thought might not be the truth you think it is.

Getting sick can really mess with your weight mastery! And I don’t just mean missing a workout or two. When you’re sick, everything feels off. Your appetite changes. Your routines disappear. Your skills feel shaky. And suddenly all those “sick foods” start looking a little too comforting. That’s exactly why this week’s podcast episode exists. In this episode, I walk you through how to stay grounded in your identity as a weight master, even when your body isn’t cooperating and how to keep continuity with food and movement—yes, even if that movement is literally...

What if your workouts didn’t have to be long, exhausting, or something you had to psych yourself up for? , I’m joined by Cam Allen, a fitness expert who works specifically with midlife women—and she’s sharing a reframe around exercise and consistency that I absolutely love. Cam opens up about a personal shift she made when she stopped believing workouts had to be hard and time-consuming to be effective. By experimenting with shorter, more focused strength workouts, she discovered something powerful: more consistency, more energy, and better results. If you’ve been feeling...
info_outlineRemember 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 fundamental self-permissions that can shift you out of diet mentality and struggle — and into lasting Weight Mastery.
These are the same inner agreements that helped me move from years of yo-yo dieting to 30 years of stable weight release — and the same ones my clients use to finally get off the hamster wheel for good.
It’s time to stop waiting for someone else’s approval — and give yourself permission to succeed.
