Conquer People Pleaser Tendencies to Blossom as a Boundary Setter with Georgia

Although it’s called Weight Loss From Within, what I’ve discovered with most of the women that come through it is that while they’d love to lose a couple of pounds, that’s not really what drew them to the program. The outcomes that everyone has gotten has been so diverse. My guest today, Georgia, joins us from Australia. I remember how she was at the start, and it’s like she’s a new person now! We talk about her journey through the program, especially who she was when she began and what changes transpired in her in the process.
2:47 - Why Georgia was such a people pleaser before entering the program
8:02 - The “wow” moment where Georgia realized she’d found the missing link
11:55 - Georgia looking back to see why she felt she wasn’t enough
16:09 - Reactions and rewards when Georgia finally set boundaries for her family
25:39 - Old vs. new Georgia in terms of her reaction to her husband’s accident

How to Move from Martyrdom to Self-Love and Transformation with Janine

I’m bringing on a series of women who’ve worked with me through my Weight Loss From Within program. I get excited when I get to do this, because it’s an opportunity for them to celebrate their journey. My work has nothing to do with me; it’s all about the women I’m here to serve. I believe in the power of storytelling, and I believe that each of these women will say something that you'll hear and resonate with in your own life. To that end, this week I talk with Janine about her self-transformation as she journeyed through the program.
2:33 - How Janine felt about herself and her body when we first met
9:41 - Our behaviors mirror back to us what is and isn’t okay with us within
18:08 - What it looks like for Janine to be in partnership with her body
26:18 - How Janine created her alter ego and what it’s changed for her
33:32 - Janine feeling a whole other level of worth since beginning the program
40:52 - Being responsible for your choices without self-sabotage or guilty feelings
44:18 - So many women don’t trust themselves but choice is the ultimate freedom

What Is It Costing You?

Years ago, around this time of year, I felt really sad and wondered when my business would turn around. I was really living from this place of lack and feeling like I wasn’t good enough. Now, I see that all these different things that have happened for me have become part of my message, and how I teach these stories helps me connect to each of you tuning in. Our past is neither an accident nor a mistake. Today, we’re diving into past history, a topic that has really impacted my life.
7:38 - The devastation I felt when my first big launch for E.A.T. barely broke even
11:28 - Carrying around “Post Traumatic Launch Disorder” for many years
16:09 - The moment I let go of my business past and rewrote the story
17:49 - Losing weight has less to do with the doing and more to do with this

What Are You Releasing?

This year I want to release the difficulty I have in batching my podcast episodes. I have some amazing things lined up for 2021, and batching opens up my availability and gives me more space and time to work on what I want to bring you. That’s why I want to talk about this idea of releasing things and having an honest conversation about the things you’re actually very committed to even if you say you don’t want to be, such as negative self-talk. You’re not your thoughts; you’re just the thinker of your thoughts and can always create new ones. So what do you want to leave behind in 2020 that isn’t serving you? Let’s get into it!
5:01 - Habitual thoughts and what you need to do to create new thoughts
9:31 - Worrying is praying for what you don’t want; here’s how you can stop
13:18 - One of the most uncomfortable things to do for most people
16:37 - Why so many of us keep ourselves so busy

Committing to Something New

How do you want to feel about your body? If you don’t know, start figuring it out by writing how you currently feel about it. But here’s the thing--you can feel the way you want to feel right now, and nothing needs to change. How you think and feel about your body has nothing to do with your circumstances, the number on the scale, or anything else outside of yourself. In this episode, I emphasize this perpetual truth: you get to choose how you feel, starting right now.
2:56 - The work you need to do around your body issues
5:04 - What your real problem is (hint: it’s not your weight)
8:38 - What’s necessary to create an outcome you’ve never had

Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself

We develop a pattern of being hard on ourselves at a young age. Over the years, I’ve struggled with this myself and worked with ambitious, driven, high achiever women who deny themselves as such until I ask them to list out all their accomplishments. Then they realize they’ve glossed over them and never celebrated their wins. Do you do this to yourself? If so, how does that behavior cost or even benefit you? Listen on for ways to break out of this pattern.
2:45 - Some ways in which I’ve been hard on myself professionally
4:32 - How would you move forward if you weren’t hard on yourself?
5:19 - Relating kind and compassionate treatment of the self to women’s bodies and weight
6:45 - Self-parenting and taking inventory of your life by asking yourself these questions

The Gift of Both/And

I recorded this episode on Saturday, an odd day for me. But I felt inspired to talk about this now with the latest wave of COVID-19 in progress worldwide. Believe it or not, despite doing this podcast every week, I sometimes find it hard to find my voice. But right now, we’re living in a world with so much diametrical thinking: you have to be on one side or the other, you have to do this or the opposite thing. This week, I’m making an impassioned plea for us all to wake up and embrace both/and thinking.
2:15 - The gift I’ve always struggled with thanks to my empathetic nature
4:45 - What prevents many women from having a healthy body relationship
6:49 - The impulse to control in order to avoid feeling fear
10:51 - Looking at where else in your life you’re getting into either/or thinking

Emotions are simply ENERGY in MOTION

The year 2020 has been such an emotional roller coaster ride. It’s caused people to either lean into their feelings or double down on behavior that only serves to numb them emotionally. But what are emotions really, and why are they so powerful? In this episode, I talk about the consequences of getting stuck in your emotions and what it means to allow yourself to feel what you feel.
2:23 - What emotions are and why you need to let them move through you
6:14 - Our tendency to avoid emotions and label them as good or bad
9:49 - Why we tend to struggle to be with our own emotions
14:40 - Ways in which suppressed emotion can show up to create chaos in your life
17:09 - What a simple practice of self-care looks like
