This week on Chattin’ with Coach Amy, I’m sharing the heart behind one of my favorite seasons in coaching. Over the years, I’ve coached so many women who were desperately searching for a lasting solution to their health struggles, but what they really needed was a mindset shift and a plan that worked for real life. That’s how the GRIT acronym was born. It came from watching women fight for their health, find their footing, and become who they were made to be.In this episode, I talk about the incredible transformation I’ve seen in clients who commit to the process, even when it’s messy. I share what GRIT really stands for, how powerful mindset work can be, and why I believe time is one of the best healing tools we have.You’ll also hear some stories of women who’ve stuck with it and seen major wins. And if you’re looking at the calendar and feeling discouraged by what hasn’t happened yet this year, I want you to know that these last 100 days don’t have to look like last year. You still have time to finish strong.Let’s do it together. Join #100Strong Today! https://form.jotform.com/southernandhealthyms/cas-100strong-challenge-2025Season 5 Episode 18

This week on Chattin’ with Coach Amy, I’m sitting down with my sweet client Lauren, someone who has walked the Trim Healthy Mama path with incredible grit, grace, and growth.In this episode, Lauren opens up about her journey from self-criticism to self-compassion. She shares how the vicious cycle of negative self-talk held her back for years… until she learned to show herself grace, lean into THM’s ever-reliable principles, and start believing that imperfect progress is still progress.💪 Her first #100Strong experience showed her a strength inside her. She saw that the plan could truly work in any season. And when 2024 brought unexpected changes in her body, Lauren didn’t throw in the towel. She had the mindset tools, the accountability, and the support to keep going.This episode is for the woman who thinks she has to do it all perfectly. For the one walking through a ‘pause’ season and wondering if she’s still making progress. Come be encouraged by Lauren’s story of transformation, mindset renewal, and the freedom that comes when you just keep showing up.Join #100Strong 2025 Here: https://form.jotform.com/southernandhealthyms/cas-100strong-challenge-2025Season 5 Episode 17Please visit my website to check out the health and wellness coaching opportunities I have currently and coming up: https://southernandhealthycoaching.com/

This week on Chattin’ with Coach Amy, I'm joined by two longtime clients and special friends, Cindy and Carol, who are living proof that community and accountability will completely transform your Trim Healthy Mama journey.

Together, they open up about what it’s like to walk the Trim Healthy Mama path alongside other women, women who cheer you on, lift you up, and remind you that you’re never alone. They show up. They support. They love big.

From sharing real struggles to celebrating wins, these ladies model what it means to be in it together. They’ll show you that when women support each other, they don’t just change their own lives, they change the lives of everyone around them. Expect encouragement. Expect wisdom. Expect to be reminded that the bonds we build in community are some of the strongest tools we have for lasting transformation.

This one is for every woman who’s ever needed a sister to say, “You’ve got this.” Whether you're just starting THM or you’ve been on the path for years, you’ll be inspired by their stories. This episode is a celebration of the bonds that carry us, the friends who lift us up when we stumble, and the truth that we're better together.

💕You are not meant to do this alone.

Hey y'all! Please welcome Holly to the Chattin' with Coach Amy Podcast! She is the first client to come and talk to everyone about a new 1on1 program I am offering, 'Crushin' Your Goals'. Holly had come from a place where she had been trying for years to get good habits put in to place. Her coaching originated with her desire to build habits such as meal planning from start to finish, and then boy did it turn into something so much more! She really came into the wisdom that knowing truths about ourselves is what really grounds us. I can't wait for you to hear her story which includes the systems she has put in place, the truth statements she stands on, as well as her victories. Thanks for listenin'!*Previous podcast mentioned: 'The One with Heahter' - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5F1sTxplI4sNotes from Holly:"You asked me in the podcast interview what truth I go back to when things get hard(crisis moments and I want to emotionally eat and go off plan or just enjoying an ice cream trip with my family). This is what I go back to. It’s taped above my fridge handle."I CHOOSE MY HARDIt's hard to be unhealthyIt's hard to be healthyI can choose to be healthy because God gives me strength to do hard things."For me, I do have the choice to eat off plan. But I choose not to because I CHOOSE MY HARD. And I can do HARD things through Christ who strengthens me.I don’t have to muster up the strength in my own human self. God provides the strength and helps me. I’m Relyin’ on Him for the help and the strength!!! There is a peace that comes when I surrender over and over and over again to this process.ISAIAH 41:10God gives the victory!I am still in the process of learning to turn to God for comfort instead of food, but I have definitely made progress. Between Crushin’ and Relyin’ and Level 2 and Blooms, battles are being won and strongholds broken! To God be the Glory.

Welcome back to Chattin' with Coach Amy!  When ladies joined the list to watch my 6 year Trimiversary LIVE event in January, they had the opportunity to submit a question asking me what they wanted to know about my 6 year health journey.  Today, I'm joined by my client, Darlene, who's helping me through this list to continue getting y'all's questions answered!  So many of you want to know how I have stayed consistent and motivated to maintain the Trim Healthy lifestyle.  I talked about where I was when I started, how I manage and juggle my meals, and ladies, if y'all know me, how I like to keep things simple!

"Since September 18, I am down 4.2 pounds and 2 inches. Since starting with Coach Amy and my first measurements on May 2, I am down 30 pounds and 17 inches. Deciding to invest in myself with coaching is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I can’t thank you, Coach Amy for all you’ve done to encourage me to stay the course.
