This week we are having a quick chat about the fact that I think of our thoughts and words as if we are placing an order for what we want in our lives. I have always had a passion for providing the best customer service experience and when I go up to a counter myself, I want to take the time to order what I really want and ask for it kindly because I have been on the other end of this experience since I was very young. What instructions are you giving your brain when you go up to the "counter" every day and place your order for your life? Let's discuss.

Here is a quick encouragement for your busy week that I come back to again and again which is checking in to see if our goals are light and not heavy. Are we so bogged down with the concerns of life that we feel like we can't even get going in this season? The answer is in making it easier not harder. Stopping the fight with ourselves. What are you truly willing to do today? Let's do that! It's worlds better than doing nothing and realizing six months have suddenly gone by with no change or even moving backwards.

This week on the Podcast we will be getting into all the things about various late night habits. Are you even aware of your late night habits? Are there any you would like to change? Who are you talking to about this? I find over and over that people are struggling with so many things they never discuss. There are so many things which might be easier to change if only we invited a coach or a friend into the discussion. Let's look through the lens of a couple of my clients as to how we untangled things quickly for them. I know it can seem like these things are really hard and deep, but sometimes just sharing about what we really want and don't want is the tiny little window opening we need to change absolutely everything!

On today's episode we will be bringing the problem you are struggling with right to the surface so we can look at it from a different angle. I know we will all have circumstances that seem like problems and there are also varying degrees of problems. Some problems we are just accepting of as a part of life. But how we think about problems can sometimes be...problematic. Let's dive in and decide which problems are which and what we want to think and do when problems come along.

In today's episode I will be discussing how we can slow down to ask ourselves how we work through things best. Have you ever considered how to best work with yourself and not against yourself?

I hope you will be so excited to open your mind to looking for new ways to find rest. Oh, how we all need more rest and I am convinced that if we had deep rest as a foundational way of life, many of life's perceived problems would drift away. I am here to bring you some additional encouragement to slow things down and add in some rest, especially if you feel like this is impossible. If you even got five more minutes of rest on the front or back end of sleep every day, you would notice a huge improvement . Please get cozy and listen in to be reminded of what you already know or invite a new concept in.

I truly pray you are never faced with an unexpected diagnosis. Today I am bringing hope using the example of someone who did so we can consider how we would handle this. Spoiler alert: This story will have a happy ending! Sometimes an unexpected diagnosis gives awareness that is helpful. But how can we have this awareness now before a diagnosis ever comes? Let's get into it.

I have heard some people talk about the middle of their journey as if it's really hard and messy and today on today's Podcast I am coming in with a fresh perspective on that. Yes! It's true you might be aware that your goal will not be hit in the next five minutes, but can we find some new energy and motivation to get us to the finish line? Yes, again! We always can. Shout out to my friend who is crushing her journey with so much wisdom and grace. Her dreams and goals are all a done deal! It's just a matter of time catching up because she has already figured it all out. Will new challenges come? Of course. And she has all the evidence in the world the she will overcome whatever comes her way. You can get there too whether you are in the middle of the journey or just getting started. Let's get into it!

Have you noticed, or maybe have you never noticed that your struggle is the background noise to every part of your life? Does every moment and every action and interaction of the day seem to be wrapped around the struggle? This can just be a habit and awareness once again is key to shifting this pattern. Listen in and see if this is an area to which we can bring some lightness, rest, and change. Sometimes we just need to slow it down and pick one thing at a time to focus on instead of swimming the giant soup of all the things that swirl around in our heads. Living in that soup can be exhausting and we all need some refreshment! Change and total transformation is easier than you think!

Do you feel like you are in a constant war with yourself having a list of things you want to do, and then never completing the list? And then watching the list keep growing instead of getting smaller? How can we stop this fight and get moving in the direction we truly want to go? This week we will explore why this is very common and as always, just a little awareness can shift this whole pattern around! Resistance and getting ourselves all worked up might not get us the best results. Listen in and find out why.

Here comes a client reference Podcast unpacking why I am such a strong believer in the 5 Pound Principle. Yes, the word principle also means guideline so everything I offer to you is a suggestion, and this one I offer with pure joy! I know I heard this concept go by over the years, but at just the right time the seed that was planted here sprouted and it's been a huge part of my mindset shift. Thanks to multiple former coaches who shined a light on this one at just the right time. I hope you will take a moment to listen with an open mind and heart to see if this principle will work for you. And then pan the camera back to see what other areas of your life this could cause a shift as well. I will always believe that weight loss has been a skill that once I mastered, it's the skill that unlocked hope and endless possibilities all over my life. I pray it is the same for you! My coaching calendar will be open again soon! I would love to hear from you if you have have any questions. You can find me at https://sofarsogoodcoaching.com/.

Seems like all our lives we are taught to watch out for a downward spiral and we all seem to know what that looks like, but have you ever stopped to consider an upward spiral? Do you think this is even possible for you or do you feel like it could only happen based on some sort of happy accident? What if I told you, you could create your own personal upward spiral? Does that seem far-fetched or even exhausting? What if it's easier than you thought to get that going and what if it could build and build on itself on autopilot once you get it slowly and gently moving? This is possible for you! Listen in and I will discuss this from an example in my own life. Get ready to find hope and be energized with this one! Need some coaching to get you there? I would love to hear from you if you have any questions or need to get some traction and momentum. You can find me at https://sofarsogoodcoaching.com/. I am also on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.

Have you ever taken the time to ask your body what it wants? Do you even remember that you actually have a body to ask? Sometimes we are living our whole lives in our heads and forget that we were born with hunger cues coming from our body which are truly brilliant! And slowly taking the time to tune back in to what your brilliant body is saying is a complete game changer. I know that over time when you struggle with your weight it can seem like your body is working against you but it is actually just there waiting with a smile for you to hear all the wisdom it has to share. But how would you even reconnect when you have been disconnected for years or possibly decades? I'm glad you asked! Let's explore this! I would love to coach you right back to this connection.

Sometimes we have some changes at work. And sometimes everything changes all at once. What if today we played around with an analogy about everything changing and how we might handle that. What would we think if this happened to us? What about if we heard about this happening to someone we love? What if we heard about something happening to someone we don't even know? Let's wiggle our brains a bit and think about what we are thinking about regarding this. Let's explore this just for fun to see what comes up. Are you curious yet? Great!

This week let's pause to take some time to really think about the rewards in our life. Are they actually rewarding? We will always have the pull toward rewards and I believe we can use this pull for good. Let's examine how to leverage the rewards we have set up in our life. Let's choose them in advance rather than being dragged around by the nose (or stomach) by them.

How did your most recent holiday or family/friend outing meal go? I previously recorded episode #68 as a bonus with holiday strategies so feel free to go listen to that too, and this week we are going to take a moment to see how and what exactly we did. If you are listening in real time and in America, we just had Thanksgiving which as far as food is concerned can be somewhat like the Olympics. How did it go? Did you like how you showed up and handled the day all the way from the food to the relationships? What can we bring forward to Christmas or your next outing? What do we need to throw off completely? What can we do even a 1% improvement on? So many options. Listen in and as always reach out if I can help you work through this in any way! You can find me at https://sofarsogoodcoaching.com/.

The questions I am constantly asked most when I reveal that I have lost 80+ pounds after a 40+ year battle and kept if off for years now with zero concern of ever gaining it back is: You guessed it.... "How did you do it?" And depending on the person I am speaking to my answer revolves around having a change of my mindset around food as well as my thoughts and emotions. But then they want to know more, specifically how am I eating every day and how am I exercising? It's definitely important for us to plan our food and exercise and I love to help with that, but what if I told you, you might need a lighter touch on the how. Listen in as we explore why knowing how might not be the thing we are truly seeking.

This Pocast is a result of my heart overflowing with gratitude for a masterful coach among coaches who has opened me up to several personal breakthroughs. I was finally able to connect with this coach and continue sending my firehose of encouragement! So many ideas right when I stopped recording were still coming to me and my list continues!

Here comes another episode with some true "secret sauce" for your journey. How often are we taking the time to celebrate and be inspired? Why does this even matter? How do you respond when other people are celebrating or inspired? This is a real-time, mirror-like reflection of your own inner world.

If you would like to explore this topic more come find me for coaching at sofarsogoodcoaching.com and let's chat on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.
Let's take it all the way back today and look at your entire diet history. What are your earliest memories around the way you eat? I would love to sit with you across a table to hear your entire story about it! What "food rules" are you noticing and where do these even come from? Do you even want to keep these around? Are they helping? As always, I have so many questions for you and am deeply curious. I hope you can be the same with yourself and slow all this down. Reach out for more chat on this or any topic as well as for all your coaching needs. I can help! You can find me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com and on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.
Today let's go all in discussing those days when you wake up with the "I don't wannas." We have all been there and will probably be there again at some point. Let's see if we can wiggle our brain just a bit when this familiar refrain comes calling. What exactly do you not want? This is actually really useful information! And what do you actually want. How can we figure all that out and get some traction by throwing off some of the things we really don't want and adding in some of the things we truly want. All it takes is a smidge of awareness and a shift in attention and intention. Listen in! Once again, feel free to reach out to me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or find me on Instagram at @sogarsogoodcoaching, Let's start your coaching journey to get you to all of your goals!
Here comes another "more" episode as we get closer to our 100th episode of real world and up to the moment client struggles which keep coming up! Sometimes it takes just one slight tweak to the wording or the example to be the exact thing that gives you the breakthrough and I am here for that! May I be a small or large part of helping some seeds "sprout" for you. Instead of feeling like we are constantly in a battle with our food or any habit in partucular, what if we were digging to look for the ways it is actually trying to help us? What if there is a special message under it all? Somethng helpful. What if instead of the situation being completely overwhelming and confusing, it all made perfect sense? What if we turned everything on its head just to get in there and have a look around at some things with genuine curiosity? Let's slow the train down and look at this and see it can give you a needed shift in perspective. What do you really need underneath it all? Let's explore. As always I would love to connect with you more and coach you on anything you need freedom from. What if is it easier than you think? I can help you to get there! Feel free to reach out to me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or DM me on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.
You'll notice I am going to aim to add (More) to the title when it appears we have talked about this topic before in a previous episode. And you can be sure if I have clients currently struggling with topics I will speak about them over and over again hoping I say it either enough times or in the right way where your brain just opens right up and shows you your victory! Today is one of those days! Do you ever have a sneaky thought rattling around in your mind that you just deserve some foods because things in life are hard? This can show up in so many ways so I always want to shine a light on it for you to help you have awareness. Of course you deserve to enjoy your food. I do not believe food is only for fuel whatsoever! Let's just check in with our thoughts and feelings today on this topic. I welcome you and every single thought and feeling! They're all real and valid. Let's get into it! As always reach out to me for coaching and the best way to start is for you to send me a DM on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching. Let's connect! My website is sofarsogoodcoaching.com
Whether you're all in for journaling and tracking or if it's an absolutely no, not at this time for you, I hope you will give this episode a listen! Here are some ways I have found to make journaling fun an energizing as well as a peek into my own current journaling practice which is open to changes and constantly evolving! Pick one small entry point or go all in with a group of these ideas. Give it a try knowing it's a daily practice and not a hard line forever! As always, nothing about this journey has to be an all or nothing exercise. Let's aim for all or something! Just start something, somewhere! If you want to chat about journaling or are ready to go all in with coaching, you can find me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.
If you're feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of your entire weight loss journey, let me offer you some quick wins you can find in just one week. If you love the week you have, then it's easier to stack win upon win that way all the way to victory! I have so many ideas about this that could never be covered in one Podcast so reach out for coaching if you're needing to get some weekly traction! You can find me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching. Let's connect!
In my ongoing research and deep dives into the things that are keeping people stuck, I have regularly landed on some form of looking for blind spots which we all have! This is not something to feel bad about, but something we will all come across for the rest of our lives. Providing a safe space to explore the sneaky thoughts our brain might be offering us which are not helping us, is one of my favorite places to spend some time with my clients. If you're willing to consider the possibility that you may have some form of resisistance to help and embrace this, massive strides can be made. I love when we can all laugh at ourselves with some of the areas we can see our brain trying to convince ourselves not to take action and protect us, causing us to play small in our lives. Let's consider how to move past any resistance to moving forward confidently in today's episode. I'm offering you freedom from a multitude of directions!

Or is there something else you know you have an attachment to other than food? How is this attachment working for you? Of course we are all longing for connections and attachments. Let's not pretend that this is not what we were created for. But let's explore your relationship with food. Did you know you actually have a relationship with food?

Are you someone who would describe yourself as being an "all or nothing" type of person? I sure was. It was all black and white in my mind and this was reinforced for decades as my professional career always revolved around accounting functions. Today let's shine a light on how that was not helpful with regard to my weight loss. Let's notice this together and see if this type of thinking has helped you in the past, or if this is helping you today. We can always choose something different. The Podcast almost always begins with client and friend coverations I've had recently, so let's discuss two dear friends of mine who did not even know they said the very same thing about this. I know that the three of us are not alone working throught this old habit. It will be fun to shine a light on it and see what we can see. As always, I would love to work with you so please reach out to me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com for a consultation or come find me and let's chat on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.

The theme of so many of my clients this year has been that many things are not turning out the way they expected! I love to share tools as we go into the Holiday season with them and imagine with them what we will do if things go differently than expected. So many times they will tell me this will never change and lo and behold something different comes up. They love the empowerment that comes from already knowing this might happen and already having a contingency plan in place! Then we can sit back and laugh and be entertained by it all instead of being completely shocked and upset. Listen in and let's chat about how to expect the unexpected just in case so you're not completely thrown off and set back by changes which are always the natural way of things in life! If you would like individual coaching please reach out to me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or I would love to chat on Instagram too at @sofarsogoodcoaching.
With all the humility and love toward all those who live in areas where there truly is not enough to eat, I still believe it is important to talk about an incessant thought the rest of us can have which is "but I was starving." Sometimes we feel like we can not even talk about a thought like this in the world we live in today, but that does not make the thought go away. So here I am asking that thought to come to the surface for a loving discussion. I do not want you to have this thought or any thoughts lurking in the background anymore. Listen in while I talk about a client's experience with this thought and how we walked through it together. What other thoughts might you have running around low-key under the "hood" of your brain that you want to examine? Let's get into it! If you have a specific thought looping around in there you would like help with please come find me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or dm me on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.
This can be the time of the year when people start to get overwhelmed with all the things going on and decide not to get back to the goals until next week, next month, or next year. I have been there and I understand this temptation completely! Let's slow it down for a few minutes and explore what types of things might be underneath these feelings. How can this awareness in slowing down ultimately speed things up? Listen in and I'll help you get to the root of this so we can clear your path and increase your energy toward feeling like taking some action once again. As always, please reach out if you would like to chat about your particular struggles. You can find me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or direct message me on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.
How do we handle it when we are rolling along getting into a zone with our eating plan and all of a sudden someone comes in with a different plan? Maybe it's a gathering that we may feel like we do not have much or any control over. Are we supposed to just stay home in a bubble and never go out? I do not think this a great long-term or short-term strategy. How can we build some muscles with a work or family gathering? Listen in as I go over a client win in this area! How you can apply what she learned to your personal situation? Let's explore this together. This is one of my very favorite areas to coach on, so if you're strugging with holiday or work events which will probably always be a part of your life, reach out for some help! Let's connect with the people at these gatherings and not let the food derail us anymore! There is freedom to be had! Let's get it!

Do you ever notice yourself being extremely compassionate with other people's struggles, but not as kind to yourself? Have you ever really paused to ask yourself about this? This week on the Podcast we are learning how to slow down and notice if part of us is focused on the struggles of others, but not even aware that we are not giving ourselves the same grace as we would give someone else.

Today on the podcast, I will be bringing some awareness to our reactions when people are not happy with us. And when they are flat out mad. How do we react? Are we mad too? Do we want to hide? Do we want to have everyone on the entire planet happy with us at all times? You can probably see that this is impossible, but then how can we avoid eating over these emotions that come up?

Do you ever feel stuck because you think you are someone who is just hungry all the time when others are not? Does that ever cause you to want to give up and throw in the towel? I used to feel this way too so in this week's Podcast I will unpack what I believe that was all about and show you how to overcome it. We are overcomers! Let's get unstuck and get back to our regular hunger signals so we do not have to feel overly hungry all the time. There is freedom for you in this! Let's all get it! Listen in.

Do you ever feel like having joy would be nice, but it's not really on your radar? Almost like it's indulgent to take the time to experience joy when you have so many things on your to do list? I was so focused on "fixing myself" for so many years that I would have never even thought that experiencing joy might be helpful. Let me share with you how I am leveraging joy now, and not using food as my only source of joy, with a real life example of something that happened recently in my life. May it cause you to look for some joy opportunities in your life and use joy to your advanage. And if you are feeling like you are fresh out of joy, reach out and I would love to lift you up. If that sounds like too much, let me meet you exactly where you are. You can find me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or DM me on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching. I would love to connect with you!
This week on the Podcast we are exploring when fear is helpful and when it is not. We will also get into how that connects to hunger. Of course fear is a normal part of the human experience, but with some awareness, we can decide when this is useful and when it's completely fake. Just asking yourself if this is real or fake fear can give you that pause so you can decide how to react in the moment. And you can probably guess that we truly do not have to have fear around food. I used to have a ton of fear around food and I was able to let that go. Let me show you how! Get yourself some encouragement, empowerment, and coaching by connecting with me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com. Let's get on a call! DM me anytime on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching. I look forward to hearing from you!
In our culture which is exceedingly blessed to have constant access to food, are we taking the time to really think about how we are using our household food supply? How can we get the most out of buying in bulk and sales? How can we have adequate food storage if that is important to you, but in a thoughtful manner? How can the accounting concept of sunk cost help us? I am here to empower you to think all these things through so you can be confident in all of your decisions all the way down to the food you bring in the door. I want you to enjoy your food on every possible level. Listen in and let's discuss. As always I would love to have you sign up for one of my coaching programs at sofarsogoodcoaching.com. Let's chat and feel free to ask any question about this topic or anything you are struggling with. You can also find me on Instagram at @sofarsogoodchaching. Let's connect!
On today's Podcast we are doing a gentle introduction to what's going inside our body and nervous system. Sometimes we can live our whole lives in our head and never even check in with our bodies. Connecting these dots really helped me gain freedom and learn how to make the choices I wanted to make instead of feeling like I was a victim of what was happening to me. I'll be offering up a dance of sorts to get the best out of both worlds with our thoughts and our bodies. Listen in and as always I would love to chat about your specific situation. Find me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching. I would love to work with you and am also here for you for any questions you may have. Let's get unstuck forever!
On today's Podcast I am offering some thoughts on how we can be more aware of making sure we are creating the consequences we want in our lives. And yes, in most cases, I believe we can create the lives we want by beginning with the end in mind. Sometimes we get caught up in the day to day, and I am also a firm supporter of living in the moment. And that said, we can at the same time keep our eye on the goal of what we really, truly want our lives to be about when all is said and done. Have you taken some time to really think of this? And not to cause you to want to hide under the covers, but to open your heart to what might be a small way you can move the needle in the direction you want to go. If this or any topic causes you to freeze because you're feeling stuck and not sure how to make a sustainable change, please reach out. I would love to chat and there are never any strings attached. We all need people to work through these things with who can listen and share a perspective from the outside looking in. I would love to hear from you at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or find me on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.

Flipping these habits around has been a game-changer and one of the reasons I am even able to do this Podcast! Listen in and come "hungry" with an open mind to decide on your personal filters for prioritizing your life. Would love to hear from you as always at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or come find me on Instagram at @sofarsogoodcoaching.

I know I did for most of my life and the result was a bunch of shame and exhaustion when I was not able to achieve balance in all areas of my life.

You are definitely not alone, This is such a large topic and we will just dive into the deep end because as I will share you will see this mindest can be lurking in large and small areas of our lives.

I am wondering how you read this title! Did you read it with frustration with yourself? Or were you more open? Curious? Hopeful? Ready to explore what is going on with your emotions and food? Ready to make some "space" in your day for this topic? You will understand the space comment more when you listen. This is where I share what really started to get the ball rolling more quickly for me and taking on all the emotions around food. It's easier than you think! Having the whole range of emotions is completely normal and good! Let's notice what is happening and get curious together. As always I am excited to explore these emotions with you.

On today's Podccast let's peek into the corners of our minds to see if we have any scarcity thoughts around food. I would not have thought I had a single issue with this, but lo and behold I did and even today I still notice these thoughts coming up. A lot of them were rooted in the past, and once I was able to shine a light on where they were coming from, I could see that they were not even true! I was able to clean these thoughts up and keep my eyes open for them to send them packing when they did and do still occasionally surface. I am so grateful for all the abundance in my life! Let's be curious together because scarcity issues can show up in so many areas well beyond food! If your "closet" needs to be cleaned out in this area please let me know. I would love to "unpack" it all with you. Find me at sofarsogoodcoaching@gmail.com, sofarsogoodcoaching.com, or on Instagram @sofarsogoodcoaching.
In today's podcast, I am sharing the story of when all the things started to finally come together for me to find this beautiful peace around food once and for all. You'll probably notice the theme that I regularly need to see things outside of myself for a while and examine them in order to apply them directly to my own life. This is a story about how I was ripe for the answer and the perfect person at the perfect time came along and helped launch me to where I am today. I am forever grateful! I would have never thought that my weight and body image would be a relaxing topic, but here we are! Let me keep encouraging you that I am about the least likely person to have ever gotten to this point considering my history, so once again, if I did it, it will be even easier for you! Keep listening and sharing your journey with me. I love hearing from you! sofarsofoodcoaching.com, sofarsogoodcoaching@gmail.com, IG @sofarsofgoodcoaching.
Today on the podcast we are going to look for areas you might be having some theatrics or drama around food. But if you feel like this does not apply to you, there is still some gold in here for you as well! I really thought I was a pretty calm and even-tempered type of person, but I uncovered some areas of theatrics in my own mind and this was really slowing me down in achieving the results I was looking for. Listen in and see how I uncovered and overcame my own theatrics so I could get to my goal. If you need some help untangling this ball of yarn for yourself, I would love to help you get to the root of it all so you can let this pattern go for good. Please share this podcast with a friend who might be stuck in this pattern as well. Reach out to me at sofarsogoodcoaching.com or my Instagram which is @sofarsogoodcoaching.

Do you find yourself sometimes wondering what is even happening day to day with your food? If I asked you what you ate the day before yesterday could you tell me? There's a reason why we get into our habits and ruts in our lives and the good news is this is normal and makes perfect sense. Let's explore why today. Also wanted to give a shout out to an amazing Breathwork coach that I have known for many years who I mentioned in the Podcast.

This week is for you if you're feeling a little burned out and needing some fresh ideas on how to feel energized again. I know we can all use a bit of encouragement on how to keep ourselves focused and motivated. We all have low energy seasons. Nothing has gone wrong when we do. But feel free to come back to this eposide again and again when you need a bit of a redirect to get yourself going again. Let's keep ourselves refreshed and rejuvenated and support ourselves when we need some revitilization.
Let's go deep today and see how open you are to change. Do you feel ready to change? Are there any roadblocks you can see with yourself? Can we be curious together about how to access those deep parts of you that might be resistant to change? We all have them! Let's explore some possibilities together and make some shifts today!
Today I am discussing how I came up with my food list for myself and how it has changed over the years. Are the foods you are eating working well for you? Have you even considered what foods you love and want on the list? Are you eating foods you don't enjoy? There is absolutely no need to eat any foods we can't stand. I promise that is an unsustainable approach and you will throw in the towel if you are choking foods you don't enjoy down regularly. Let's make crafting a food list a fun activity, shall we? Listen in.
What does the term Emotional Metabolism mean? Let's unpack this as you can probably guess it's just as important as metabolizing your food.

Today let's really settle into how we might set ourselves up for success with a gentle reset instead of a quick 90 day type of fix. How can we just get some awareness going and slow things down because, let's face it, the quick fix never lasts. All we really need is awareness and a routine. I promise this will get you the quick win you are looking for, but not set yourself up to overshoot and fall apart down the line. I have developed a whole program around these concepts so if you're ready to reset in a sustainable way, let's chat! Email me at sofarsogoodcoaching@gmail.com to get started!
Today let's dive into the topic of when life seems tough and/or you're finding yourself exhausted and you feel like you just deserve a treat and a break with food. This was a big issue for me and comes up over and over with my clients. Let's not pretend this is not happening for you if it is. I'm here to encourage you about this so you can stop beating yourself up when these particular thoughts come up. Listen in!
Our brains are inundated with thoughts every day. It can be exhausting! If you feel like 80% or more of your thoughts are about food, your weight, and/or your body image, I can relate! I can help you clear some space in your brain so you have time to move on with your life and feel less exhausted with all the endless chatter. Listen in and we will start to unpack why we do this and what we can do about it.
This eposode is for my friends who are having a continuous loop of thoughts around knowing what they "should" be doing but not executing the way they want to.

Please consider taking some small, encouraging, action steps with me.
Do you struggle with a background story in your head that you've always struggled with your weight and you'll never change? I not only had this story playing in the background of my mind, but in the front of my mind too! Let's see if I can wiggle your brain a little to see if there is any possibility for you to change. You can probably guess what I think about this by the title of this episode. Please join me!
Well, this week I jumped on the train with all the goal setting tips I was hearing all around the internet to share my thoughts on how we can make the goals more gentle and obtainable rather than have the bar be impossibly high. Now, if you are the type of person who thinks they need to make things harder because they "can not be trusted" to make things easy-peasy, then I just humbly ask you to also give this Podcast a listen just to hear me out on this topic. How can we make our goals something we actually want to follow through on, not just for 90 days, but forever?
Have you ever had the experience that you ate your whole meal or a snack but don't even remember doing it? I sure have. This week I am breaking it down for you with all the ways I was eating in an unconscious manner. I will share some tips on how to tune into what you're eating because food is delicious and intended for us to enjoy! Don't miss the eating experience or this Podcast!
In this Podcast we will explore something that never crossed my mind for decades. What if I actually CAN do this? I did it and you absolutely can too. But I was very stuck in a thought loop that my situation and weight struggles were way too hard and even impossible. Listen in and see if you can borrow one of my thoughts on this if you feel stuck too. Even if you don't feel stuck I know you will find it encouraging!
This Podcast is sort of a Part 2 to last week's message about the simple things being the crucial things. It seems like my clients are typically on some sort of spectrum, but lean either towards being overwhelmed with everything seeming really hard regarding weight loss, or thinking my methods and tools might sound too easy and wanting some form of accelerated plan to make it harder on themselves. Can you see how either place is not really useful? I am exploring how to shift into small actions to remove the overwhelm and/or slow your roll and take a moment if you're on the other end of the spectrum with the hurry mindset. Let me know your thoughts on all this.
Have you notied that you are looking for some secret really difficult thing that you might be missing to get you to your goal? As if you have all the knowledge but think you need to be digging deeper and deeper? What if you could back the train up to the small things once again and be sure you really have those dialed in first? What if there is some momentum to be had in those places we sometimes try to fly right past? Let's slow our roll for a minute and see if the answers really might be in the smallest of things. Because I really truly believe we have been making this all harder than it needs to be. Chek it out!
I was surprised this week how many people had not heard about the Hunger Scale and this is a whole week module of my program so I wanted to start to go over it with anyone who needs an introduction. In this episide I go through why it did not work for me previously, and how I was able to find a way to invite it into my process. There are so many ways we can work with this concept and I am excited for you to find the one that works for you! Join me as we talk it through.
Jumping on today to record a Podcast about my experiences with resets, cleanses, and fasts. Spoiler Alert: They almost always set me back in my journey and I will go through all the reasons why. I share all my missteps and how I learned to turn a reset into something that helps instead of setting me up for more yo-yo dieting. Let's get out of that yo-yo cycle forever, shall we?
I recorded this Podcast with the hope that we can find a place of neutrailty with the number being reported to us on the scale. The scale is a piece of metal and or plastic, actually mine has some glass on it too, which provides us with data. How did we get all the way over to the place where this piece of metal can cause the direction of our whole day to be determined? Friends, this is just a habit and some thought errors we might be experiencing Let's explore!
What are my thoughts on exercise? More importantly, what are your thoughts on exercise? How can we slow down and think about what's best for us with regard to exercise and give ourselves permission to put that topic on the backburner for a while of we choose to? Or how can we be all in with exercise if we love it! You have permission to do either! What do you think will work best for you? Let's dig in!
I love to come in with Podcast titles that can be read in several ways so you can see how all of our thoughts differ. When you read "Can You Just Relax?" how did you receive it? Did your heart start to race a little under the surface that I might be saying it as an attack? Or did you read in with my true intention of love and care for you that you might need to make some space in your life to relax. Not letting myself relax was most likely my biggest road block to weight loss and I will be sharing about this and fine tuning it as long as I live! Let's dive in.
Here's one for the rebels! I would have never thought I had a rebellious streak. I was all about people pleasing, but was I really? Does just the thought of any kind of diet cause you to want to dig in your heels with a hard "no?" Are you realizing that you might just be rebelling against....yourself? Let's work through these thoughts and feelings today.
Are you completely frustrated trying to lose weight and feel like you have given up? Wow, do I understand that feeling more than words can say! How did I get to the other side of the thoughts that made me want to throw in the towel and give up forever? Let's explore this together.
What thoughts come up for you when I say I am a Weight Loss Cheerleader? Are you excited to get some encouragement on your journey, or do you give that a bit of an eyeroll? Do you consider yourself more of a "tough love" person? I used to think that way too. Let's explore all that today.
How does the question hit you when I ask... "Can you just relax?" Does it stir up some thoughts and feelings for you? Let's unpack one of my personal very deep root issues, which was my inability to relax without food. Are there ways you can relax a little more in your life?
Do you ever feel like you are rebelling against finding some sort of healthy balance in your life, only to realize that you're the only one still suffering? Why do we rebel against.... ourselves? Let's explore.
The wight loss journey can be exhausting and frustrating, but it does not have to be! Listen in an notice where you might be making it harder than it needs to be. You will definitely start to shift your mindset and start taking small actions in the best direction for you just by tuning into how you're thinking about all this.
Why do I refer to myself as a Weight Loss Cheerleader? How did I get from a mindest of tough love and criticism toward myself to a place of compassion, curiosity and encouragement? If you think you just need to be harder on yourself, more disciplined, and pull it together, please listen in!
We make so many decision every day! How can we make the best decisons at the best times for the best results? Let's explore.
Well, of course we have to have an entire episode about french fries! How do we know when your favorite food fits into the plan? Of course that does not have to be french fries! Spoiler alert: Whatever food you happen to love fits and will be a regular part of your food plan if that's what you decide. Let's take one french fry at a time and talk about it, shall we?
Today we are discussing just the very beginnings of how I starting looking at what was working for me and not what was working for everyone else. I had never even stopped to consider this! Maybe you can relate. I didn't realize that I had the answers the entire time.
Do you ever feel like you might be missing something with regard to your weight loss or anything else you're struggling but you just can't quite see it? I sure did! Let me tell you how a dear friend really confirmed everything that had finally been coming into focus for me over the past few years.
In this episode I will dive into what we can do when the negative thoughts come in regarding if it's even possible to lose the weight. We can give our brain some space to explore other possibilitles with curiosity and compassion. Let me explain how with a great example.
We are still talking about what we are eating and how we are thinking about it. Diving into some of the diet programs you might have tried might not be working for you. They certainly did not work for me!
This is a quick introduction about my background and the tools and strategies I will be sharing on this podcast with regard to weight loss or other points you may be stuck in your life. Stay tuned! We are just getting started!
