"If it's in my house, I'll eat the whole thing. So I just don't buy it."

Ice cream, chips, cookies, the good chocolate — whatever yours is, you've been handling it by keeping it out. And that works fine… until the food shows up at work, or at a party, or at your friend's place, or on the dessert menu.

Because you can keep it out of your house but you can't keep it out of your life.

This came from a question on a live Q&A call with my Thrive Academy for Overeating members. I'm walking you through the actual skill — how to be around that food without fighting it, and how it eventually stops being interesting at all.

Chips were one of my biggest foods. They never lasted. Now there are half-open bags in my cupboard going stale because I forgot about them. I know that sounds impossible right now. I promise you it isn't.

Listen to the full episode today to learn how.

You know how you're always the one taking the photo? Never in it. You tell yourself you'll get in the pictures once you lose the weight, or fit the clothes, or just feel a little better about your body.

Here's the hard truth: there's no magic day when it gets easier. If you don't do the body image work, your brain will still find something to pick apart — even after you lose weight.

In this episode, I'm giving you a pep talk about getting in the photos of your own life. We'll talk about why summer makes body judgment louder, why the memory matters way more than the stomach roll, and why your body is worthy of being in the picture right now. If you've spent years hiding from the camera, this one's for you.

For years I assumed I'd lose weight over the summer. Warm weather, fresh food, more time off — it just felt like lighter eating should happen on its own. It took me way too long to notice the truth: summer was actually the hardest time of year for me, and I usually gained.

If that's you too, this episode is for you. I walk through the four things that quietly make summer eating harder — disrupted schedules, camping and lake time, vacations, and the never-ending parties and barbecues — and exactly how to handle each one so you can still enjoy your summer without feeling out of control.

You'll walk away knowing why your brain keeps telling you "it'll just be fine," why that's usually a lie, and how a little planning (not perfection) lets you eat food you love and still feel good at the end of the day. Perfect for any woman physician who's tired of summer running away from her.

You set the goal: get the weight off before the long weekend, before the conference, before you see those people again. And you're great at it… for a couple weeks. Then you get sick, or your kid gets sick, or you have a week from hell — and one off day turns into "well, I blew it, I'm done."

In this episode I sit down with registered psychotherapist Brian Baumal to talk about why that keeps happening, and why it has almost nothing to do with willpower. We get into the quiet shame hiding underneath the rush, why slowing way down actually works better, and a surprisingly simple place to start that has nothing to do with changing what you eat.

If you've ever thought "it's just a fact that I always fail at this" — this one's for you.

You can find Brian at alivapsychotherapy.com.

You overate last night, so today you tell yourself you'll be "extra careful." A light salad. Maybe skip lunch. It sounds smart. It sounds like the responsible thing to do.

But that little plan to make up for it? It sets up your next overeating episode.

In this episode I break down the binge-restrict cycle — the hidden loop that keeps almost everyone stuck. I'll show you why trying to stop yourself right before you eat almost never works, why beating yourself up after only makes it worse, and the easiest place to step out of the cycle (it's probably not where you think).

If you've been working so hard and still feel out of control around food, this one's for you.

Do you think about food almost all day — what you ate, what you shouldn't have, what you really want, how to finally fix it?

I didn't realize how much space food was taking up in my brain until I started to get a handle on it.

In this episode I walk through five reasons your brain won't stop thinking about food — and a couple of them you've probably never heard before — plus the practical things that actually quieted it down for me, including one slightly ridiculous trick that worked.

If you're tired of food running in the background of every quiet moment, this one's for you.

Ever come home from a vacation feeling like you have to spend the next two weeks undoing it? I get it. In this episode I'm talking with Dr. Krystal Sodaitis, host of the Luxury Cruising podcast, about how to make cruise vacations actually work — for your wallet, your family, and your eating.

Krystal shares her best tips for booking the right room, finding deals without going generic, and using a travel agent to save money and stress. And we get into how she keeps cruise eating from turning into a week-long buffet bender (without feeling restricted or missing out).

If you've ever wanted to try cruising — or if vacations have a way of throwing all your work out the window — this one's for you. Find Krystal at luxurycruising.net or wherever you listen to podcasts.

You know that pattern. You decide a food is off limits. You white-knuckle through the first few days. Then you cave — and somehow eat way more of it than you would have if you'd just let yourself have some in the first place.

In this episode, I'm flipping the script on that whole approach. Your desires around food are valid. The crunch, the saltiness, the convenience, the spontaneity, the way it feels like a little break in your day — those are real needs, and pretending they're not is why every diet eventually falls apart.

I'll walk you through the exact questions to ask about a food you keep going back to, and why finding alternatives that truly hit the spot — not consolation-prize versions — is the piece that makes healthy eating actually sustainable.

If you've tried every version of restriction and keep ending up in the same place, this one's for you.

Have you hit the wall? You've tried to lose weight or change your eating more than a few times now. Maybe it worked for a little while. Then it didn't. And now you're sitting there wondering if there's even any point in trying again.

I recorded this episode for you, because I know how exhausting it is to keep trying and yet keep feeling like you're failing.

In episode 350 of the Thriving As A Physician Podcast, I'm digging into why trying has felt so exhausting, so defeating, and so personal — and why that's not actually your fault. The way we've been taught to try is the problem, not you.

I walk you through why the failure lens most of us use is distorted and actually gets in the way of your success, why building something that feels good to do is the whole point (not a bonus), and what it looks like to approach weight and eating as a practice instead of a diet.

This one is for you if you feel battered and bruised and aren't sure you have another try left in you. I promise it's worth a listen.

The appointments that drain you most aren't always the hardest clinically. They're the ones where you said all the right things and the patient still left frustrated. Or the encounter where something felt off and you couldn't name it — but you carried stress from it through the day (and maybe into a 3pm break-room raid).

In this episode, I talk with Christine Miles — a listening expert and CEO of EQuipt — about a skill that's under-taught in medicine: how to actually make people feel heard.

She shares the six simple questions that help patients tell their story faster, a 90-second technique that changes how safe people feel with you, and what to do when someone walks in already angry.

Listening well matters - it can make your clinical days better but also will help in your personal relationships. And anything that makes your days go smoother will help with your eating.

If your days regularly leave you empty — this one's for you.

You've tried the diets. You've made the plans. And yet, there you are at 3pm, or after a brutal clinic day, or standing in the hotel breakfast buffet, eating more than you meant to — and feeling awful about it after.

Here's what nobody has told you: the problem isn't that you can't stick to a plan. It's that every plan you've been given has been pointed at the wrong target. In this episode, I'm sharing a four-step "start here" plan that actually works.

We're not talking about what to eat or what to cut out. We're talking about understanding why you eat the way you do — and how to actually change it in a way that doesn't require more willpower or more energy you don't have.

I cover why shame is the first thing that has to go, how to find the patterns hiding in your last two weeks of eating, why you should absolutely start with the easiest thing (not the hardest), and why failure is not only expected but actually part of the plan.

If you can't figure out why you keep hitting the drive through (even though you know it isn't healthy) then this episode is for you.

You've tried the diets. You know what you're "supposed" to eat. And yet there you are at 3pm, somehow in the break room eating cookies you didn't even plan to touch — and spending the rest of the afternoon beating yourself up about it.

Here's what I want you to hear: that's not a food problem. And diet culture has been handing you the completely wrong answer for years.

In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why diet culture was never designed to help with stress eating, emotional eating, or binge eating — and why trying to apply diet rules to these struggles is like putting a band-aid over something that needs actual stitches.

I talk about why your brain is using food to solve other problems (and why that actually makes sense), why perfection-based approaches set you up to fall apart every single time, and why the scale might be making everything worse when you're already feeling out of control.

This episode is for you if you know exactly what to eat but can't figure out why you keep eating when you don't want to. You're not broken. You've just been given the wrong tools.

You submitted the questions. Now here are the real answers.

In this episode, I'm sharing a replay of a live Q&A I did the other week — and I answer the questions you're probably too embarrassed to ask out loud.

Why can't you stop eating after supper even though you know better? Is it worth tracking macros? Do supplements actually work? What about exercise in menopause? And is change even possible if you've struggled your whole life?

The answers will surprise you. Because the way I talk about this stuff these topics is very different from the standard "just eat less" mentality.

Be sure to listen. And then listen again - this one is packed with a LOT of tips.

This episode is perfect for you if you're exhausted from trying to fix your eating in the evening, frustrated that your workouts aren't moving the scale, and ready to hear something that actually makes sense for your real life.

If you've lived life in a larger body, you know what it's like when you just feel "too big".

You look at a group photo and instead of seeing a great memory, all you see is how much space you take up. You second-guess what you order at a catered lunch because you're sure someone's watching what the overweight doctor eats. And that shrinking doesn't stop at your body — it starts showing up in your opinions, your needs, and how you move through the world.

In this episode, I dig into the "too big, too large" belief — where it actually comes from, how it quietly runs way more of your life than you realize, and why the place you make changes from matters just as much as the changes themselves.

This one's for you if you've ever tried to make yourself smaller in any way — physically or otherwise.

Welcome to Part 3 of our annual Thriving in the New Year interview series! Every January, I sit down with physician coaches to hear how they're thinking about the year ahead—and there's always something that shifts my perspective.

I'm joined by Dr. Sonia Wright (pediatric radiologist and midlife sex coach), Dr. Sarah Smith (family physician and charting coach), and Dr. Lea Grace Famularcano (family medicine and obesity medicine physician, health coach).

We got into why the "push, push, push" approach we learned in training doesn't work for reaching your personal goals, how small pivots beat giant overhauls every time, and what it looks like to focus on experience instead of achievement.

If you're exhausted from trying to achieve your way to feeling better, this conversation offers a different path forward.

Welcome to Part 2 of our annual Thriving in the New Year interview series! Every January, I sit down with physician coaches to hear how they're approaching the year—and I always walk away with something that shifts my thinking.

I'm joined by Dr. Maneesha Ahluwalia (life coach and former infectious disease physician), Dr. Nora Vasquez (internist and high-performance coach), and Dr. Ladan Davallow (pediatric endocrinologist and coach). We got into what to do when your January has already gone sideways, why physicians are so bad at celebrating wins, and the difference between living in the gap versus the gain.

If you're feeling behind on your New Year's intentions, this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air.

Welcome to the first episode of our annual Thriving in the New Year interview series! Every January, I sit down with physician coaches to hear how they're approaching the year ahead—and I always learn something that shifts my own thinking. This year is no different.

I'm joined by three brilliant physician coaches: Dr. Jessie Mahoney (pediatrician and mindfulness coach), Dr. Allison Anderson (cardiothoracic anesthesiologist and relationship mentor), and Dr. Wendy Schofer (pediatrician specializing in eating disorder prevention). We got into words of the year, what it means to feel whole, why satisfaction is so hard for physicians, and how to approach goals in a way that actually feels good.

Jessie shared her words for the year—strategic and focused, wealthy and healthy, brave and bold—and her decision to filter everything through one question: is it fun? Wendy opened up about surviving the hardest year of her life and landing on "whole" as her compass for saying no. And Allison gave us a completely different approach to New Year's intentions: focusing on experiences you want to have and setting monthly themes instead of rigid goals.

We also talked about why working harder backfires in certain areas of life, how we were literally trained not to feel satisfied, and what it means to stop just "plugging holes" and start bringing your whole self to your life.

You've made it through another year. Maybe the holidays went well. Maybe you've eaten more cookies than planned and you're already dreading January.

Either way, here's what I want you to know: Nothing is wrong with you.

In this episode, I share my year-end love letter to you—a physician who's probably being too hard on herself. We'll talk about why your experience around food isn't a given (even with years of "evidence"), how to stop the internal tug-of-war with food, and why acknowledging your own needs matters more than any diet plan.

This is for any woman physician ready to head into the new year without the shame spiral.

In medical school, we learned to push feelings down, distance ourselves from them, and keep working no matter what. That is an essential skill as a doctor - we have to be able to keep a clear head in intensely emotional times.

But it's also the reason why food feels so hard to control as doctors.

In this episode, I'm breaking down: why emotions drive so much of our eating (even when it doesn't feel like "stress eating"), how to actually notice what you're feeling before you're elbow-deep in the chip bag, and simple techniques you can use between patients to process emotions without anyone knowing.

I'll share my own story of how frustration with getting my kids out the door was ruining my entire day and driving my eating—and how working on that one emotion had ripple effects I didn't expect.

This episode is for you if you're tired of feeling out of control around food and ready to understand what's really going on underneath.

You're standing in front of the break room donuts at 2pm wondering: Am I actually hungry? Or have I already eaten too much? Should I eat this? What if I'm eating when I'm not really hungry?

If you've ever questioned whether you're "really" hungry, this episode is for you.

Diet culture taught us to stop trusting ourselves. Eat less, less, less. And medical training taught us to ignore our bodies - skip meals, hold our bladders, function alert on no sleep. No wonder you're second-guessing every hunger signal.

In this episode, I break down what physical hunger actually feels like versus other common types of eating I see with physicians. I explain why post-call hunger hits different (hello, increased ghrelin, decreased leptin, and impaired frontal lobe).

And I give you specific strategies for each type of eating so you can actually do something about it.

This episode is perfect for any physician who's tired of questioning every hunger signal and wants to start trusting herself again.

You keep doing the same thing with food over and over. And you can't figure out why.

Here's what's happening: there are hidden obstacles between you and healthy eating. You just can't see them yet. Because we're not trained to look for obstacles - we just blame ourselves instead. And that's not fair.

In this episode, I teach you how to spot the hidden obstacles that keep tripping you up with food. I'll show you why forcing yourself doesn't work and give you the exact questions to ask so you can problem-solve instead of self-blame.

Perfect for you if you keep repeating the same eating patterns or you're exhausted from trying so hard without seeing results.

You've started over so many times. Every Monday, every January 1st, promising yourself this time will be different. Then a few weeks later you're right back where you started, eating takeout in your car after clinic, wondering what's wrong with you.

Here's what nobody tells you: It's not that you failed. It's how you started.

In this episode, I'm sharing exactly how I would start over with everything I know now. Six strategies that make the difference between white-knuckling it for a few weeks and actually creating change that lasts. This isn't another "try harder" pep talk—it's about setting yourself up so you can keep going without the constant battle.

Perfect for physicians tired of starting over and ready to do weight loss differently. Listen today and share with someone who needs to hear this!

You've delivered babies, managed codes, diagnosed complex cases. So why can't you figure out your eating?

If you've ever thought "I'm a doctor, I should know better" while reaching for food you didn't plan to eat, this episode is for you. I break down exactly why food feels so much harder than everything else you've mastered - and why it has nothing to do with being stupid or lacking knowledge.

You'll learn the five real reasons physicians struggle with food (none of them are what you think), why focusing on the food itself is like watching the magician's assistant instead of where the trick actually happens, and how shame creates a brick wall that blocks any chance of change.

This episode is perfect for any woman physician who's tired of feeling like she's the only smart person who can't figure out something that "should be simple."

Ever feel like you're either "all in" or completely off track with your eating? Like you need to do everything perfectly or you might as well not try? In this episode, I dive deep into the perfectionism block that keeps so many physicians in the frustrating cycle of trying harder but always feeling stuck.

I share why there's actually no "right way" to lose weight, despite what diet culture tells us. You'll discover how perfectionist thinking creates obstacles that make it nearly impossible to start OR stick with healthy changes.

More importantly, I'll show you what actually works: finding YOUR path that fits your real life (not some idealized version where you have endless time and energy).

If you're tired of the all-or-nothing rollercoaster and ready to build consistency that actually lasts, this episode is exactly what you need to hear. Listen now.

You know that awful feeling after a weekend of eating way off-plan? The shame, the self-blame, the "I'll start over Monday" drama? There's a better way to handle these situations - and it's something you already know how to do.

In this episode, I share exactly what happened during my recent lake weekend where I ate way more chips, pizza, and treats than usual, and how I approached it using the same no-blame mindset we bring to M&M rounds. Instead of spiraling into shame, I got curious about what was really driving that eating.

You'll learn why that "out of control" weekend eating usually has nothing to do with the food itself, and discover my simple process for understanding what really happened so you can course-correct quickly without the drama. I break down the real reasons physicians eat differently on weekends and share my personal "get back on track" strategy that doesn't involve cutting out food groups.

This episode is perfect for any physician who's tired of beating themselves up after eating off-plan and wants to learn how to get back to healthier eating more quickly and easily.

Think summer should be easy for healthy eating? Ha. You're covering for everyone on vacation, your kids are home with zero routine, and you're stress-eating in your car between patients.

I'm sitting on my deck talking about why summer is actually brutal for physician eating. It's not your fault - summers create the perfect storm of schedule chaos, family stress, and social food pressure.

But here's the thing: you don't have to restrict all the fun stuff or wait until fall to "get back on track." I'll share what actually works when your life is upside down and why changing your brain's automatic food responses beats willpower every time.

Perfect for any woman physician who's tired of the summer struggle and ready for an approach that works with your real life, not against it.

This is Part 2 of my live Q&A series where I dive into the deeper questions that keep physicians up at night. The stuff that makes you wonder if you're broken (spoiler: you're not).

In this episode, I answer:

Is it food addiction or emotional eating? When it feels like "I must eat and I don't know how to not do it" - and what labels actually help vs hurt
What to do about sweet tooth cravings hitting every 4-5 days when you're eating low carb high fat
How to handle identity shifts when your health finally improves after years of limitations

These aren't surface-level questions. This is about figuring out what empowers you vs what makes you feel broken, practical solutions for low carb adaptation, and navigating the weird space when your body can suddenly do things it couldn't for years.

Perfect for physicians who want to understand what's really driving their cravings and are ready to feel empowered instead of controlled by food. Listen today!

Pssst…Make sure you listened to Part 1 where we covered emotional eating during chronic stress, those brutal 2 AM call room binges, and why starting feels so impossible.

This is Part 1 of my live Q&A session where I tackled the real food struggles women physicians face every day. No BS, just honest answers to honest questions.

In this episode, I answer:

How to manage emotional eating when you're dealing with ongoing chronic stress (like caring for a teen with chronic health issues while working as a physician)
What to do about those 2 AM call room binges when you're exhausted and surrounded by treats
Why starting feels so hard even when you "know what to do" and want to lose weight so badly

This isn't generic diet advice. This is physician-specific support for the unique crap we deal with - from anticipatory stress before call shifts to feeling like you need to give up everything you love just to lose weight.

Perfect for any woman physician who's tired of the cycle: knowing what's healthy but struggling to actually do it in the chaos of medical practice.

Make sure to listen to Part 2 next week where we dive into food addiction vs emotional eating, sweet cravings on low carb, and identity shifts when your health finally improves.

Ever make a perfect eating plan and then rebel against it by Thursday? You're not broken. You're not self-sabotaging. You're rebelling against diet culture telling you to do shitty stuff to yourself - and that rebellious streak is actually powerful.

In this episode, I explain why rebellion shows up in our eating and how to harness it so it works FOR you instead of against you. Because that same rebellious part that got you through medical school? It's trying to protect you from unfair diet rules.

I'll share my empowered eating approach plus the abundance strategy that may sound backwards but eliminates the need to rebel.

If you feel like you're constantly fighting yourself around food or think something's wrong with you because you can't "stick to" plans, this episode is exactly what you need.

Perfect for female physicians ready to stop battling themselves around food.

Ever notice how you know exactly what would make you feel better, but somehow never actually do it?

This episode tackles the self-care paradox that's messing with every physician I know. We're wired to respond to urgency, but self-care isn't urgent - so it gets pushed to "later" and later never comes.

I'll tell you why your medical training is working against you here, how to think about outcomes instead of tasks, and share my simple morning routine that creates spaciousness even on tough days.

Perfect for any physician who's tired of running on empty and ready to stop treating herself worse than her patients. Listen today and share with someone who may need this.

Ugh, another Monday morning promising yourself "this week will be different"?

Yeah, I've been there too. That whole song and dance where you beat yourself up about all the stuff you ate this weekend and swear you'll be "good" this week.

Here's the thing - that approach is keeping you stuck. And it's not because you suck at willpower. It's because the whole process is messed up.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why that Monday morning shame spiral doesn't work and what to do instead. Spoiler alert: it has nothing to do with meal prep or trying harder.

I'll show you how to stop being mean to yourself, why eating more (not less) actually works better, and simple tricks that fit into your real life (no matter how hectic it is). No extra time needed.

Perfect for any woman physician who's tired of feeling like she's always starting over and ready to quit the Monday morning guilt party.

Forget everything you think you know about reaching your goals. Willpower? Please. Perfect eating? Yeah, right.

I'm sharing the three things that actually make the difference between spinning your wheels forever and getting where you want to go - and staying there.

After years of working with physicians and my own messy journey, I've figured out what really works. It's not what diet culture sells you. It's not about trying harder or being more perfect.

These three skills will make willpower completely obsolete. Finally!

If you're exhausted from fighting yourself every single day, this episode is for you. I'll walk you through each skill with real examples from my practice (and some entertaining bear encounters from my trail runs thrown in for good measure 😀).

Perfect for any woman physician who's ready to stop battling food and start trusting herself.

Think losing weight will fix your binge eating? Think again. In this myth-busting episode, I explain why trying to diet your way out of binge eating actually makes the problem worse, not better.

I break down the binge-restrict cycle that keeps so many physicians trapped, and why traditional weight loss approaches intensify this cycle rather than stopping it. You'll learn why you need to stabilize your eating FIRST (for 3-6 months) before addressing weight, and how restriction comes from your thoughts about food, not the food itself.

Most importantly, I outline a clear path forward that honors both your health goals AND your relationship with food. You'll discover how to make small, consistent changes that don't trigger binges, and why destabilized eating is important information, not failure.

Perfect for any physician who's tired of bouncing between rigid diets and out-of-control binges. There IS a way forward - just not in the order you might think.

Ever thrown away fast food wrappers before getting home so no one would see them? You're not alone.

In this episode, I dive into why so many physicians eat in secret and what it REALLY means (spoiler: it's not about willpower or the food itself).

I share my own journey with drive-thru French fries and the shame that made me hide the evidence, plus the breakthrough realization that changed everything. This isn't about "a food problem" - it's about unmet needs your brain is trying to fulfill.

Perfect for any physician who's ever felt out of control with food, hidden wrappers, or eaten in their car to avoid judgment. You'll walk away with practical steps to break free from secret eating and the shame that drives it. Listen today!

Ever feel like you're obsessing over what to eat? In this episode, I tackle the age-old question that plagues so many physicians: "What should I eat to lose weight?"

As doctors, we think we should have this figured out. Yet many of us bounce between diets, chase every Netflix documentary promise, and still feel stuck. I share my personal experience with this frustrating cycle and offer a refreshing approach to food choices that actually works long-term.

You'll learn why consistency trumps perfection, why you deserve food you actually enjoy, and how to trust yourself as the expert on your own body. This episode is perfect for any physician who's tired of diet rules and ready for sustainable, enjoyable eating that fits your real life.

If you're a physician who can't remember the last time you felt genuinely happy at work, this episode is for you. In this intimate conversation with Dr. Greg Hammer, Stanford professor, author and fellow physician, we explore a simple path back to joy that doesn't require changing jobs or adding more to your already impossible schedule.

Dr. Hammer shares his GAIN method - a 3-minute morning practice specifically designed for the physician mind. It's not about toxic positivity or pretending medicine isn't hard. It's about finding small pockets of peace in the storm of your day - between difficult patients, endless documentation, and the weight of clinical decisions.

Whether you find yourself reaching for comfort food after tough encounters, lying awake rehashing the day, or simply feeling disconnected from the passion that led you to medicine, this conversation offers a realistic lifeline. Because feeling better shouldn't have to wait until you retire.

Feeling like each news alert sends you straight to the pantry? You're not alone. In this episode, I offer a heartfelt pep talk for physicians struggling with stress eating during challenging times.

I share why your brain turns to chocolate when doom-scrolling about threatened rights and freedoms (and why that 10pm cookie binge makes perfect neurological sense). More importantly, I explain why adding self-criticism about your eating only makes things worse.

You'll learn practical ways to be kinder to yourself, focus on what you can control, and find better ways to process those big feelings without shame or guilt. If you've noticed your eating habits changing as the world feels increasingly chaotic, this episode is your permission slip to treat yourself with the same compassion you show your patients.

Tired of diets that don’t work and leave you feeling defeated? In this episode, I share a total mindset flip that changed everything for me and hundreds of physicians I've coached.

Instead of trying to fit into someone else's "fixed menu" diet plan, I show you how to shift your focus to putting you at the centre of your plan. Selecting and adapting tools so they meet you exactly where you are right now (and work way better for you).

You'll discover why you're already amazing (not broken!), how to design an approach tailored to YOUR preferences and schedule, and why this personalized approach leads to better results with way less struggle.

Perfect for physicians who think, "I know what to do but can't make myself do it consistently." It's time to put yourself at the center of your weight loss journey!

Dr. Kristine Goins was burned out, overwhelmed, and literally having chest pains at work. Her body was sending emergency signals—but like so many physicians, she ignored them. Until one day, she didn’t.

In this episode, we dive into Kristine’s incredible journey from stress-induced physical symptoms to designing a career as a digital nomad psychiatrist. She didn’t quit medicine—she reinvented how she practices it.

If you’ve ever told yourself you’ll figure things out “someday,” this conversation is for you. Listen now and discover how small changes can create the freedom and fulfillment you deserve.

Ever thought “Maybe I just won’t ever be able to lose weight..”? Then this episode is for you. I’m tackling that deep fear many of us have: what if your body will never respond to weight loss efforts?

Learn what to do when it feels like your body's not responding.. This isn't about plateaus where you've seen some success and it stalls - it's about that gut-level fear that maybe it's never gonna work.

Most physicians who come to me share this belief: "I don't know if I'll ever be able to lose weight." I dive into why weight is far more complex than our medical training taught us, why consistency trumps perfection, why the you shouldn’t just depend on the scale to measure progress

Whether you need to tweak your approach or try new tools altogether, this episode offers practical steps forward when weight loss feels impossible.

Can’t stop eating when you are full? This episode is for you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

The seven hidden reasons why we as physicians tend to eat past full (and none of them have to do with willpower!)
Why our medical training might actually be working against us when it comes to eating
Practical strategies that work with our unpredictable schedules
How to rebuild your relationship with food without feeling restricted
Simple ways to reconnect with your body's signals (even during busy clinic days)

If you're tired of feeling uncomfortable after meals or worried about when you'll eat next during long shifts, this episode is for you.

Let's explore how to make peace with food in a way that actually works for your life as a physician.

Hit the play button and start listening now.

Ever feel like you’re all in on a new plan—only to hit a busy week, fall off track, and feel like you’re starting over again?

It’s not your fault. Most weight loss advice was never built for physicians with unpredictable schedules, high stress, and zero extra time.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Matthea Rentea, obesity and internal medicine physician, to talk about how to finally make weight loss sustainable—without burnout, restriction, or relying on willpower.

We’re breaking down: ✅ Why “perfect plans” fail the second life gets busy (and what actually works) ✅ How to eat in a way that feels easy—even on call weeks and post-clinic exhaustion ✅ The mindset shift that makes healthy habits effortless (hint: it’s not about discipline) ✅ How to stop the weekend “off track” spiral and build real consistency ✅ The #1 mistake that keeps physicians stuck in yo-yo dieting

If you’re tired of feeling like weight loss is another full-time job, this episode will change the way you think about food, exercise, and long-term success.

Ever feel like you’re making progress with your eating and weight goals, only to hit a roadblock that throws everything off? You’re not alone. Obstacles like stress, chaotic schedules, and exhaustion are normal, especially for busy physicians. But without the right skills to handle them, it’s easy to feel stuck and defeated.

In this episode of Thriving as a Physician, I share 4 simple steps to overcome obstacles without spiraling into guilt or panic. You’ll learn how to stop thinking setbacks mean failure, why obstacles are part of the process, and how to troubleshoot challenges to keep moving forward.

This is the missing skill diet culture never taught you. Let’s change that.

Listen now and take back control of your progress!

I found some game-changing research while renewing my obesity medicine certification, and I’m sharing the best pearls with you!

How more sleep can naturally reduce cravings and calorie intake.

Craving rest but afraid to slow down?

In this final episode of the Thriving in 2025 series, I’m joined by Dr. Sonia Wright, Dr. Sunny Smith, and Dr. Karen Leitner to explore why slowing down feels so scary for physicians—and how it can transform your well-being.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck on a hamster wheel—doing more, giving more, but never feeling like it’s enough—this episode will resonate. We discuss why rest and self-compassion are essential, not just for preventing burnout, but for managing stress-driven habits like overeating. Slowing down creates space to approach food and life with intention and care.

Listen now to learn the small but powerful shifts that can help you thrive in 2025.

In this bonus episode I’m sharing how to change your eating in a way that feels natural and easy, not like a constant fight.

For years, I struggled with cravings (Wendy’s fries were my kryptonite) and felt like I was using all my energy just trying to resist food. Sound familiar?

I’ll walk you through the layers of change—why focusing only on willpower doesn’t work and how to tap into deeper parts of your brain to make food less of a battle. I’ll also share the tools that finally helped me let go of cravings and eat with freedom.

If you’ve ever felt controlled by a certain food—like you can’t trust yourself around it—this episode is for you. And if you want to take this work even further, I’d love to see you at my Rewire Your Cravings Workshop on January 16th.

“If I could just get through this week… If the system would change… If I had more time… then I’d feel better.”

Sound familiar? You’re not alone. Physicians everywhere are carrying the weight of impossible expectations, exhaustion, and a system that often feels broken. But what if the path to feeling better isn’t as far away as it seems?

In this powerful kickoff to the "Thriving in 2025" series on Thriving As A Physician, I sit down with Dr. Kathy Stepien, pediatrician and founder of the Institute for Physician Wellness, to uncover the real keys to physician wellness—and why they might be smaller (and closer) than you think.

We dive into:

The 3 layers of physician wellness: personal, organizational, and cultural.
How a 10-minute break at lunch can shift your entire day.
Why boundaries aren’t harsh—they’re essential.
The life-changing impact of self-compassion.

This isn’t about waiting for the system to change—it’s about reclaiming your power, one intentional step at a time. 🎧 Listen now and take your first step toward a truly thriving year.

In this episode, I’ll show you a better way to approach your goals—one that feels kind, realistic, and actually works. Instead of focusing on what’s “wrong” or trying to “fix” yourself, I’ll help you set goals from a place of trust and self-compassion.

I’ll share how choosing one simple guiding word—like replenishment—helped me recover from burnout and make lasting changes in my life.

Plus, I’ll tell you about my January podcast series with incredible physician coaches sharing their best advice, and a special workshop where I’ll teach you how to stop feeling out of control around that one food you can’t resist.

If you want to reach your goals this year without the usual stress, guilt, or overwhelm, this episode will give you the tools and mindset you need.

👉 Listen now and let’s create a New Year plan you’ll actually enjoy sticking to.

Do you feel like food takes up too much space in your brain? You’re between patients, driving home, or sitting with your family, and your thoughts keep circling back to what you ate—or what you should eat next.

As physicians, we’re trained to fix problems with effort and focus. But when it comes to food, working harder doesn’t help. It just leaves us feeling frustrated, exhausted, and stuck.

In this episode of Thriving As A Physician, I’ll show you how to:

Break free from food obsession and stop the endless mental tug-of-war.
Understand the real reasons physicians feel out of control with eating.
Use three simple, powerful tools to feel calm, confident, and in control around food.

If you’re ready to quiet the food noise and reclaim your mental space, this episode is for you.

You’ll learn:

• Why physicians are trained to sacrifice self-care (and how to change that).

• Quick, time-efficient tools you can use during packed clinic days or call shifts.

• How these tools help you feel more in control—with food, stress, and your day.

Tune in for a self-care conversation designed just for physicians—so you can thrive during the holidays and beyond.

Are you ready to go from “trying not to eat” to not being bothered by food after clinic? Even after your most exhausting days of caring for patients?

As physicians, we’re conditioned to believe that the stress, exhaustion, and endless demands are just part of the job. And when it comes to weight loss, we often assume it has to be a constant struggle—battling cravings, stress eating, and long days.

But what if you could question those beliefs and create a life that feels lighter, more manageable, and less overwhelming?

In this episode, I explore how questioning the "this is just how it is" mindset can lead to real change.

You’ll discover how small shifts in your thinking can make both your day-to-day life and your weight loss journey feel easier and more achievable.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your work or stuck in your weight loss efforts, this episode will help you take the first step toward change.

As physicians, we’re used to setting high standards in every area of life, but when it comes to our bodies, we’re often our harshest critics. In this episode, I dive into why we judge ourselves so harshly, where those negative thoughts come from, and how to shift your mindset.

I share my own experience of feeling bloated after a special dinner and how one critical thought sparked anger about how society has programmed us to see our bodies. This isn’t just about “loving yourself”—it’s about rejecting those outside voices and reclaiming your self-worth.

It’s time to stop depending on restriction to lose weight.

Restriction only works in the short term. In the long term it actually makes you eat more and keeps you on the one again/off again train.

Hard to believe? Then you need to have a listen to my interview with Dr. Megan Melo on this week’s Thriving As A Physician Podcast episode.

We are both Obesity Medicine Physicians and coaches so collectively have a whole lot of experience helping people change their eating with positive tools – and we both think this is one of the most important

Ever find yourself trying to eat diet food while wishing you could just eat like a “normal person”? We’ve been taught to accept bland food as a given for managing weight, but it's not fair or effective. But that crappy diet food is part of the reason why it feels so hard to lose weight and keep it off. It’s time for a change. Eating food you love and losing weight isn’t just possible – it’s essential! Check out this episode which is a replay from a live session I offered. I share loads of practical tips and exactly how I do this in my own life while juggling kids and a busy medical practice.

Restriction sucks and it doesn’t help you build sustainable change in your eating or weight.

Especially when you factor in your busy physician schedule. You don’t have time to be restricted all the time.

What works better? Abundance.

Learning to create abundance in your weight loss will naturally make it easier to follow through and keep going through the (predictable) challenges.

Wanna learn how to do this in your own life? Listen to this episode. I’m sharing all my tips that I use every single day in my own life and teach the physicians I coach.

Wanna know the right way to lose weight?

Sorry, but there is no “one right way” and as long as we are trying to find the “right way”, it keeps you stuck in the cycle of feeling like a failure.

Instead, let’s talk about finding the right way for YOU.

In this episode, I’ll show how this small shift will make a huge difference to your weight and eating journey. It’s a game changer.

Giving yourself permission to slow down and take care of yourself and your own well-being is a skill that I work on with Physicians inside the Thriving As A Physician program. This week on the podcast I share the importance of self-compassion and celebrating successes, as I share that I will be taking a break from recording consistent podcast episodes for personal reasons. Tune in to hear how I am working on implementing some of the skills that I teach into my own daily routine. * Are you ready to go from “trying not to eat” to not being bothered by food after clinic?

Tough times are a part of life. And they also are one of the biggest reasons physicians gain or regain weight.

This all hit close to home this week for me with some tough family news.

Which is why I recorded this episode. I’m sharing how to manage the tough times in life without feeling completely derailed (and while still being nice to yourself)

Have a listen and mark it so you can come back to it the next time something tough happens.

As a physician, you probably think you shouldn’t struggle with eating or weight.

I felt that way too (and spent a long time beating myself up about it)

The reality is that there are very good reasons why food has such a strong pull for many of us as doctors.

In this episode, I am sharing the top 5 reasons and how to start addressing them.

If you want to change your relationship with food, start with focussing on these areas.

You know when you end up eating treats and don’t realize it until after the food is gone?

It can be lightning quick between seeing the food and reaching for it.

So then how do you feel in control when there isn’t even time to think?

I cover that question and more in this episode. Learn why mindless eating happens and what to do about it.

The third and final session of the Binge Freedom Bootcamp is here.

I packed these live sessions with support and tools you need to start feeling in control of your eating.

Listen to this full podcast episode because you deserve to have this information now so you can start feeling better this week.

Having binge eating is not your fault. It makes sense that you struggle with it.

But binge eating won’t get better doing the same things you have always done. If they were going to work, they would have by now.

It’s time that you arm yourself with a different approach that not only helps you feel more in control of your eating but also helps you feel better in the rest of your life. If you're ready to take that first step towards a life where food doesn't control your choices, I'm here to support you. Learn more about Thrive Academy for Physicians and apply to join us.

Food guilt hits hard and overstays it’s welcome. Many physicians drag food guilt through their days which adds stress (and is exhausting)

It’s time we learn to let go of food guilt. I promise you it’s not helping you stay on track.

Have a listen to this episode to learn the true impacts of food guilt and how to start letting it go.

Thanks to everyone who joined me last week in the second live session of the Binge Freedom Bootcamp!

We dug deep into all the different places you can intervene to create lasting change in your eating.

Which means understanding how to binge less while recovering more easily after binges.

Listen to this bonus episode of the Thriving As a Physician podcast for the full replay, and then join us live for the final session of the Binge Freedom Bootcamp.

Our next (and final) live session is Thursday March 21st at 5pm PST/ 8pm EST. Register for the final live session here: www.weightsolutionsforphysicians.ca/binge

Do you ever crawl into bed feeling like your to-do list won the day? Or maybe you're beating yourself up because you think you're not doing enough for your kids' school events?

Well, I've got something special for you. This week's podcast episode is a must-listen!

We live these hectic lives of being doctors, moms, partners - and somewhere along the line, we internalized that we need to be perfect at all of it.

These hidden standards have a huge impact on how you feel in your days and also on your eating

(I mean, why wouldn’t you reach for extra snacks in the evening if you just spent your day telling yourself that you suck in multiple areas of your life??)

Listen to this episode to learn where these hidden standards are showing up in your life and how to start to release them. Small changes in this area will make you feel so much better!

Physicians, ever felt like you're constantly trying to please others, even at the expense of your own well-being?

It's a common pattern among us, and it's something I delve into in this episode.

From rushing between patients to working on little sleep, we often end up sacrificing our comfort for others.

But did you know this habit can also impact your eating habits and weight?

Listen to this episode to learn more about the hidden cost of people pleasing as a physician (and how to shift out of this habit).

Ever found yourself reaching for an extra snack when you're not even hungry? Yeah, it feels like that cookie is practically calling your name. But why does this happen?

Often, there are hidden eating triggers at work. In this episode I'm diving into the most common triggers that physicians face.

These are the hidden drivers of eating that show up again and again when I am coaching physicians on their eating.

By focussing on hidden drivers like these, managing your eating becomes simpler and you feel more in control.

If you do too, check out this episode. I share the most powerful way I deal with this in my own life.

The same pitfalls come up over and over for physicians. But you may not even know to look for them!

Listen to this episode, to learn five common pitfalls that could be slowing you down (and how to avoid them):

Over-focusing on food rather than understanding your eating behavior.
Waiting for motivation to strike instead of cultivating it.
Assuming mistakes mean you are failing
Resorting to restrictive dieting when things get tough.
Being overly critical about your eating habits or weight.

Just like in medicine, there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to weight loss. It's time to ditch the outdated diet culture and embrace a path that helps you learn from every step of the journey.

Join me as I debunk myths, provide practical advice, and offer a fresh perspective on weight loss tailored for you, a female physician.

You've got this, and I’m here to help you thrive!

Are you staring at the scale, wondering why it isn't moving despite your best efforts? You're making the right choices, staying disciplined, but the number seems stubbornly stuck. I know how frustrating and disheartening this can be because I've been there too.

I understand the temptation to revert to old eating habits or try an entirely new approach in hopes of a quick fix. However, I want to emphasize that these drastic measures often slow us down in the long run.

Usually, it's just one or two small adjustments that can kickstart your progress again. I'll share the approach I use with members of the Thrive Academy for Physicians when they face this issue.

In this episode, you'll learn how to avoid common mistakes and problem-solve without throwing all your hard work out the window.

Small changes can lead to significant results, and patience is key. Tune in to discover how to turn your frustration into a learning experience and a stepping stone towards your weight management goals.

Feeling left out is never easy. We've all experienced that deep ache when FOMO hits us. And when FOMO starts affecting our food choices, it becomes even harder to stick to our healthy eating goals.

Food FOMO is when we spend too much time daydreaming about the unhealthy foods we're choosing not to eat. It also creeps in when we start feeling envious of others who can seemingly eat anything without consequences.

Sharing my simple tips to take Food FOMO out of your life in this episode. Check it out today!

Shame is a tricky emotion that often goes unseen, seeping into every aspect of your life.

Maybe it feels like a necessary truth-teller, but it often leads to feelings of worthlessness and a cycle of harmful habits.

You don't have to stay stuck in this cycle. The first step is to intentionally shift away from shame.

Listen to this episode to hear how I'm working to do this in my own life and how you can start too.

Physicians, Imagine waking up every morning focussing on the things that are going really well in your weight loss rather than keeping a running inventory of every place you’ve messed up.

Picture how different it would feel.

We spend too much time focussing on our perceived weaknesses and trying to improve them.

Your energy will be better spent looking for your strengths and amplifying them.

Let's ditch the belief that being a doctor automatically means you can easily shed pounds. This damaging notion is all too common in the medical community.

Our training teaches us valuable information, but it also instills habits that can make healthy choices harder to prioritize. It's frustrating to talk about wellness with patients all day, only to find yourself mindlessly eating chips on the couch.

If you've ever felt like a failure in your own health journey, hold up - it's not your fault.

In this episode, I'll explain the real reasons why weight loss can be challenging for doctors (and what to do about them)

What the frick gives??? 🤔

In this episode, I am sharing why this out of control eating happens and how it has way less to do with food than you think. Plus, I will give you actionable tools to start feeling more in control.

Picture your goal. You know… the one that makes your IBS flare up a little when you think of it… 😆

And then notice what comes rushing in behind it.

Listen for the voice whispering (or shouting)... “What if I can’t do it??”

Listen for the voice saying… “What if it doesn’t work??”

How you answer that voice MATTERS. In this episode, I’ll teach how to leverage your “What ifs” to create momentum to your goals.

It can feel scary to F@#k up in your weight loss.

And as physicians, we are trained to avoid mistakes at all costs.

As we head into the holidays as physicians, our already tight schedules get more cramped.

We have to cover for our colleague's vacation, hustle to get work caught up so we can take vacation, and then somehow find time to fit in all of the fun holiday stuff too!

In this episode, I will teach you how to go from waiting for time to appear to creating time in your life for the things that matter to you.

I felt lost without bread the first time I tried eating lower carb. It felt so uncomfortable to not eat something that had been such an essential part of my daily food.

Flash forward quite a few years and eating low carb feels completely normal and natural to me. Making low carb choices at restaurants or when I have to cook a quick dinner is no big deal.

In this episode, I am sharing my practical tips learned after years of low carb eating as a physician.

So many physicians I have been talking to are feeling burnt out and crispy around the edges.

Living through a pandemic is hard.

Working in a system that is under significant strain due to the pandemic is hard.

I had a fantastic conversation about post-pandemic burnout with Dr. Errin Weismann (From Burnt Out to Badass) this week.

We shared a lot of practical strategies to start getting your feet under you and recovering from burnout.

And we shared tips about preventing burnout in the first place.

Listen to this episode whether you are feeling crispy around the edges or just want to prevent burnout and live your best life.

Do you ever catch yourself struggling against the restraints of your weight loss plan, wishing for just a little bit of spontaneity?

Me too.

I love being spontaneous.

But my love of spontaneity really created challenges in my weight loss.

I thought healthy eating couldn’t be spontaneous. So when I wanted to break loose from a busy week and do something fun, it always meant overeating.

In this week’s podcast episode I am sharing the specific tools I use to keep spontaneity in my life while I manage my weight.

It is possible to have both. Listen to this episode to learn how.

You have power to create change in your life. You can create anything you want and reach any goal but first you need to own your power to do so.

We have been taught that we don’t have power to create change. That change must come from some external source like “the perfect diet”. But the reality is, external processes only work when the real change starts within.

In this episode, I am teaching you how to take back your power and create the change you want.

On today’s show I want to talk with you about how reclaiming missed areas of gratitude can change your weight loss journey. Ask yourself this question: how can you be happy when you reach your goals if you aren’t happy with where you are now? We think reaching the goal will bring happiness but that just isn’t true. It is easy to hit your goals and move on to the next one without pausing to enjoy the accomplishment.

Feeling gratitude for where you are, exactly in this moment will help you move towards your goals but also enjoy them more when you reach them.

What would it be like to feel 100% certainty in your goals? I’m going to teach you some simple tools to create sustainable, lasting results in this episode. Know that whenever you set yourself a goal, your brain creates resistance. It tells you “there’s no evidence you can do this! What if you fail?” Let’s overcome that today.

How do you navigate the confusion and resistance your brain throws at you when you decide your goals? First, understand why it is creating this resistance. It comes down to a fear of failure and a primal fear of risk exposure. Your brain looks for evidence that you can reach your goals, but what if there isn’t any?

You can choose to disregard what your brain tells you. Acknowledge it, but don’t buy into it. No one can know what will happen in the future; the only way to find out is to try. How do you try? You begin by trying on the persona of 100% certainty that you will reach your goal.

Living in 100% certainty that you are reaching your goal makes decision making simpler. Knowing that you are going to reach your goal, the things you need to reach it become just a matter of fact. The mental tug of war with yourself becomes a thing of the past. The background chatter stops and taking action becomes just a straightforward part of your day.

I want to leave you with this thought. If believing with 100% certainty feels this good, why wouldn’t you believe it? You can choose what you believe.

On today’s show we are talking about how to tame the scale. I’m going to teach you how to use the scale so it works for you and not against you. The scale has played many different roles in my own journey - it’s been a judge, a cheerleader, and something I avoid. How can we flip its influence and use it purely as a tool to reach our goals?

The problem with avoiding it is that when you do step on the scale, the number can change the course of your day. It’s easy to see an increase in numbers, even though you are working hard to reach your goals, and be discouraged. Working on your relationship with the scale is an important piece of a long-term weight loss journey.

The scale measures your gravitational pull on Earth at that specific moment in time. Nothing else. Think of the power we actually give the scale. We place our own self-worth in those numbers and let it dictate how we feel about our journey.

Your self-worth is not related to your size or weight. Remember that failure isn’t a risk, it is just part of the process. Failure only comes when we give up.

Let the numbers be a data point that gives you insights to achieving your goals rather than the measure of success or failure. It is still beneficial to check the scale. It allows you to stay focused on your goal. You can decide what the scale means to you; the number itself is neutral.

On this week’s podcast, I am discussing what medical school didn’t teach about weight loss. As physicians, we feel we should know how to manage weight - we’ve been through medical school and learned how to keep the human body healthy. However, medical school actually taught us the opposite, with a schedule and workload that ingrain the necessity of quick fixes as a way to cope and manage stress.

Listen to this episode to learn the most important things I have learned about eating and weight that we weren’t taught in medical school.

How often do you start a diet with great intentions but then end up feeling deprived about food you can't eat? You are not alone. I think this is one of the biggest reasons people stop following a food plan. Here's a secret: The feeling of deprivation isn't coming from the food you "can" or "can't" eat, it's coming from your thoughts about how you are trying to eat. This is great news!

Bad days happen. We can't expect ourselves to be happy and positive all the time. For many of us, avoiding negative emotions drives overeating and eating off plan.

In this episode, I teach you an approach to start building awareness of your emotions that may be driving eating, how to tolerate them without trying to change them and how to figure out what the root causes of the emotions might be to create a plan to reduce them.
