This week’s podcast episode is a freaking gem.
You just have GOT to listen.
I talked with my client GILLIANNE (love you Gillianne!)
CHECK THIS OUT:
She’s a board-certified radiation oncologist.
She’s a certified life coach.
She’s a business owner & entrepreneur.
She’s a mom of two.
Clearly, she’s a freaking BOSS.
And yet… When it came to her weight and her relationship with food she felt COMPLETELY STUCK.
Even though she was SO close to giving up on losing the 20 pounds she had been struggling to lose for YEARS, she decided it was finally time for making this venture ENJOYABLE and actually having A-grade support - so she took a leap of faith in herself by signing up for my weight loss coaching program.
GILLIANNE LOST 23 POUNDS in THE LAST 10 Program (...and is still losing weight!)
Not only that, but she could barely believe how EASY it was.
She even said to me at one point: ‘Brenda, this is so easy I feel like I’m cheating’
She actually ENJOYED the process and had a GOOD TIME losing the weight. (...whaaat?!?! Yep. that’s possible my friend).
Check this out, I get emails ALL THE TIME saying things like:
‘Brenda I would LOVE to do your program. I've been struggling with my weight my entire life, but I’m just too busy with work, and I’m a mom and I have so many things going on. I just don’t think I can do this right now, maybe down the road when things calm down a bit’...
SPOILER ALERT:
Things aren’t gonna ‘calm down’- probably, ever.
The ‘kids’ will be here for a while, in fact - you’re gonna be their ‘mom’ FOREVER.
Also, my guess is your retirement isn’t happening anytime soon...
AND there will ALWAYS be - ‘things going on’
If you’ve been struggling with your weight and with food for basically your entire life, SOMETHING IS GONNA HAVE TO CHANGE.
You’re gonna have to make ‘the call’ that even though YES, YOU ARE A VERY BUSY WOMAN with tons on your plate-
YOU MATTER.
YOUR HAPPINESS MATTERS.
YOUR PERSONAL GOALS MATTER.
BEING ABLE TO FEEL GOOD IN & ENJOY YOUR BODY IN THIS LIFETIME, MATTERS.
THE VISION YOU HAVE FOR YOUR LIFE, MATTERS.
I think we can all agree it’s pretty damn unlikely Gillianne was ‘sitting around’ twiddling her thumbs and for that reason was able to lose weight... (NOPE!)
Gillianne was able to lose 23 pounds that FELT IMPOSSIBLE (umm did I mentioned she even had some Thyroid issues going on…) and she did so WHILE LIVING HER LIFE IN FULL TECHNICOLOR.
In fact, one of Gillianne’s MOST favorite things about the program was this:
‘What I was not expecting from this program was FINALLY LEARNING HOW TO UNCONDITIONALLY LOVE MYSELF and be my own best friend. I HAVE LOTS TO SAY ABOUT THIS. I could go on, and on and on. BEST. PROGRAM. EVER.’
If you ask me, THAT right there is absolutely priceless.
And guess what? It required a decision to do SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
IT REQUIRED THE DECISION that no matter how many responsibilities and things were on her plate, SHE WAS A TOP PRIORITY.
Listen to this week's episode and get ready to feel absolutely UNSTOPPABLE and incredibly inspired.
Also, grab a pen and paper and get ready to take some notes from Gillianne because she shares SO MUCH about how she made this possible for herself EVEN AS a busy physician, mom, entrepreneur AND MORE...
If Gillianne could do it, YOU CAN TOO.**
The deadline to enroll in THE LAST 10 Program is this Thursday, October 28th @ 11:59pm.
UPCOMING PROGRAM START DATE: Monday, November 1st
Here’s how it goes down:
You promise yourself you’re not gonna eat ‘x’ food (ie. the bread from the bread basket out at dinner)...
And then the bread arrives, and you have some.
You think to yourself:
‘Dammit, what’s wrong with me?! I said I wasn’t gonna have any. How am I ever gonna lose this weight? UGHhh. Well, I already messed up, so maybe I’ll just say eff-it - and start on Monday’...
Typically, what ensues is a whole lot of eating. A whole lotta eating, even past the point of what actually feels good for you in your body. (aka: You eat until you feel stuffed. And awful. I know because I used to do the exact same thing).
THIS IS WHAT I LOVINGLY REFER TO AS THE ‘I ALREADY MESSED UP’ PHENOMENON.
(yes, trust me. It’s a thing. But also, you can totally de-condition it!)
One of the MOST common questions I get is - Brenda ‘HOW DO I STOP OVEREATING AND SABOTAGING MY GOALS?!’
In order to ‘stop’ it’s important to first understand what’s causing this...
THE CAUSE OF OVEREATING IN THIS WAY IS: ALL-OR-NOTHING THINKING.
On todays’ episode I break this down in a brand new way, and I also invite you into a new and upgraded possibility for your weight loss AND your life:
LOVE, AS THE NEW BASELINE FOR DECISION-MAKING.
Now, listen- before I get any eye rolls… ; )
And I know, I know this may initially sound way too over-simplified and cheesy, let me tell you: THIS IS THE MOST PRACTICAL AND EFFECTIVE THING YOU CAN DO.
It’s also essential for you to know that your current baseline for decision making is PERFECTIONISM and it’s JUST. NOT. WORKING.
I’M INVITING YOU TODAY INTO A COMPLETELY NEW POSSIBILITY.
*If you are willing to make this one upgrade (from perfectionism as your baseline, to LOVE as your new baseline) ...
Get ready to be done with the struggle.
Get ready to be done with the sabotage.
Get ready to be done with the ‘eff-it’ moments and overeating.
Get ready for SO MUCH MORE LOVE for yourself & your body AND those next-level results.
You do NOT wanna miss this one.

Let me paint a picture…
You end your day feeling completely, absolutely depleted.
You end your day feeling like 110% of you has been given to everything and everyone else, and you’ve got nothing left for you.Then, enter food... (hello, late night eating!)Food then becomes that ‘go to’.
It feels like the one thing you ‘get to enjoy’.
It feels like the one time of the day where it’s ‘time for me’.
But if you asked most women, they wouldn’t tell you that THIS is what they wanted for their life...
They wouldn’t tell you that they wanted to feel completely depleted day-after-day, living their life in a way that the only ‘thing’ to enjoy, the only ‘time’ to enjoy would have become a moment with food, at the end of the day on the couch.
Today's podcast episode concept: TAKING CENTER STAGE, it is an invitation to reclaim and restate your position in your life- as being one where you’re not just getting the crumbs of yourself at the end of the day.
It's YOUR LIFE AFTER ALL... right?
Our lives are NOT dress rehearsals. This is it.
And IT MATTERS FOR YOU TO TAKE CENTER STAGE.
This episode is for any woman that’s ever felt like there’s no time for you. That’s ever felt like you can’t even have a moment to yourself. (special shout out to the moms!)
This episode is for any woman that’s ever believed that you can’t do this weight loss thing, that it’s not possible for you, or that you don’t even deserve it.
In this episode you’re gonna learn exactly what to do when your brain wants to tell you that:
- you can’t lose the weight you want to lose
- that you’re not capable of changing the habits you want to change
- that you’re not capable of experiencing emotions without going to food/emotionally eating
- that it’s impossible to achieve the kinds of results you’re wanting to create
- that you don’t deserve having what you want, or Taking Center Stage
Your brain was simply misinformed.
We’re gonna re-educate it. LISTEN NOW

There's thousands of women that listen to this podcast every. single. week.
And there's ONE THING that's keeping THOUSANDS of you stuck (hint- it's what this podcast is ALL about).
You gotta listen to find out.
This podcast is an invitation, from the very depths of my soul - POUR INTO YOU.... Why???
Because we’ve been socialized as women to pour into EVERYONE else, except ourselves.
To give so much OF ourselves, but not to give TO ourselves.

And of course, I’m not ‘just’ going to tell you about these products, I’ll also be integrating concepts on belief and mindset that will get you feeling empowered and able to get out of any ‘rut’.
Here’s some of the things I get into in this episode:
1. How to be the BEST kind of product junkie, knowing that products alone, in and of themselves will NOT be the ‘solution’ to a weight struggle. They are NOT the end-all-be-all. But! They sure can support your personal goals AND if you’ve addressed the sabotage and the limiting beliefs perpetuating any struggle… they sure can be fun!
2. How to address the fact that NOT ONLY are there differing opinions about supplements, products and yes, even nutrition and weight loss approaches… but in-fact, even opposing opinions and literature. One minute you’re hearing that vitamin ‘X’ is a waste of money, while the next morning you’re hearing on the morning news that it’s essential for a great life and optimal health (WTH!) No worries. I got you. There’s a SIMPLE process and solution.
3. How to stop being a perfectionist and stressing yourself the F-out about things... like supplements, expert recommendations, and on and on...
YES! I'll be including the links to my most favorite products n’ things of the year! (you can find the links in the episode show notes HERE).
But remember products and supplements themselves alone do not and can not create the kind of results and transformation you’re wanting; YOUR MINDSET, YOUR THOUGHTS, & YOUR BELIEFS are always what ultimately allow you to do so.
Make sure to tune in and listen to the mindset gems jam-packed in this episode.

If you feel like you can’t trust yourself to eat certain things without overeating (ie- sugar/sweets, nuts, crunchy stuff, etc) …
If you feel like you eat ‘great’ for a few days (or maybe even a few weeks) but then you have a miss step and suddenly you’ve gone off the rails…
If it feels IMPOSSIBLE to get through weekends, vacations or your evenings without sabotaging and overeating…
THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU.
In this episode I take you by the hand and walk you through a CORE BELIEF SYSTEM that I had to first deconstruct and then re-build for myself in order to stop constantly overeating and sabotaging my results.
I teach you the concept of: BOTH, AND.
This won’t just change your weight loss experience and results, THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
BELIEVING IN MY TOTAL CAPACITY for BOTH, AND revolutionized this area of my life… and BEYOND.
No matter how long you’ve struggled with your weight and overeating, I’M CERTAIN OF YOUR TOTAL CAPACITY.
YOU can also love this area of your life and decondition any habits of sabotage, as well as the struggle.
OF COURSE you can do this, sister. OF COURSE you can-

Most weight re-gain and weight loss plateaus happen because of emotional over-eating.
Another way to say this:
Using food and eating in order to 'manage' certain emotions.
Here's a quick list of the kinds of emotions women tend to over eat about:
Stress, overwhelm, pressure, feeling 'burned out', shame, worry, uncertainty, failure, boredom, feeling 'not enough', urgency, dissatisfaction (...& more!)
It's an ineffective coping mechanism, but yet it makes sense because as humans our brains are wired to want to seek pleasure & avoid pain (Psychology's Motivational Triad)
Which is why, one of THE MOST important skills for losing 'the last 10' pounds (insert your goal here) is the essential life-skill of allowing emotions.
EMOTIONAL COURAGE is the willingness and ability to be with and allow the full spectrum of human emotions.
What I often see is that as my clients are developing the skill of experiencing their emotions (instead of eating about them) they only sorta--kinda, and for limited-amount-of-time allow the emotion, which leads to eventually emotionally over eating when this is the case.
For these reasons, it's important to be able to self-assess if you're FULLY allowing the emotion you're experiencing OR only kinda--sorta, for-a-limited-amount-of-time.
In this episode, I teach you a BRAND NEW CONCEPT: THE FULL SIT.
You'll be able to use this concept as a tool for checking in, and assessing if you are fully allowing your emotional experiences, or not.
If you still end up eating things you know do NOT move you closer to your goal, and if you find yourself still emotionally overeating (eating when you've been feeling overwhelmed, bored, disappointed...) even though you feel like you ARE allowing and experiencing some of these emotions - this episode is for you.

Most people try to create change in their habits, behaviors and results (especially the weight related stuff!) through self-criticism and/or ‘I’ll start perfect on Monday’ wishful type thinking …
Neither approach is effective, because in either case, the way through to creating change requires AWARENESS WITHOUT JUDGEMENT.
In order to create change - in your habits and results - understanding your current actions is an important part of the process that can’t be missed.
In this episode you’ll learn HOW you can create awareness without judgement, and WHY it’s an essential ‘building block’ for creating the change and results you’re wanting.
THE CHANGES YOU WANT TO CREATE [and the results you want to achieve…] ARE POSSIBLE.
LISTEN NOW to learn more about this foundational part of the process.

‘I've listened to several episodes of your podcast. Each episode is a welcome dose of wisdom, empathy, responsibility and empowerment. The concept of "making decisions" vs "following rules" was especially empowering to me. I like that you drain the drama out of weight loss, and boil it down to choice and consequence. You've somehow pulled together the body positivity stuff and coupled it with still being able to reach for goals. You are the first person I have ever listened to that holistically addresses all the things I want, and that gives me hope.'
And I gotta say, I totally agree with their observation.I believe this is MY super power.
I've made my approach THIS way, by design.
It’s what I teach ON PURPOSE, because THIS is exactly what I also experienced was missing, and it's what I see missing for sooo many women- which perpetuates the weight struggle.
OWNING YOUR 'ISH' matters.
It matters because it's the very individual, adequately nuanced, AND ABSOLUTELY POWERFUL approach for decision making- that most weight loss and nutrition programs are NOT equipped to support diverse women (from all walks of life) in the complexities of....
The way I teach it, and the way we approach it is this one-of-a-kind nuanced and completely unique space of BOTH giving yourself permision you want what you want, YES, including losing weight.
AND ALSO paired with making yourself the head decision making and authority of HOW exactly it is that you do that; DE-CONDITIONING the beliefs of diet culture; and de-programming the all or nothing thinking of diet mentality because THAT is what creates so much emotional suffering and stuckness.
I went to this place with myself:
A place of no judgement for decision making + OWNING MY 'ISH'.
In order to be able to arrive here: EMPOWERED & FREEDOM.
*VERY IMPORTANT*
YOU CAN'T BUILD EMPOWERMENT or freedom ON SHAME OR JUDGEMENT.
This matters my friends, because a lot of you are constantly 'low key' 'should-ing' yourselves and not actually letting yourself make YOUR deliberate decisions from a place of no judgement... where you make TRUE CHOICES- FOR YOU, FOR YOUR LIFE, FOR YOUR BODY, based on what you want, knowing exactly what works for you.
If you want to ARRIVE at a place, where you’re able to experience peace, freedom, confidence and TOTAL AGENCY in this area of your life... and you wanna stop feeling shame, inadequacy, or deprivation: YOUR NEW BASELINE, THE NEW HOME BASE THAT YOU BUILD ON AND MAKE DECISIONS FROM will need to be: no judgement.
Understand what works for YOU.
Decide THAT is what you want for YOU.
DO THAT.
And, then (of course) OWN. THAT. ISH.

-WHY creating a home court advantage matters as you pursue your goal(s).
-HOW you can start to create a home court advantage for yourself, if it's not something you've been doing.
ps- even if you're not 'into sports' and feel skeptical about cheesy sports analogies... you GOTTA listen to this one.
Creating a 'home court advantage' for myself - changed my life and allowed me to RADICALLY transform my results.

(*they are oooh-sooo-different!)
Blaming yourself feels miserable.
Taking responsibility [for learning & finding solutions] IS POWERFUL.
When it comes to learning and finding solutions for anything you’re wanting to change, create or problem solve; taking FULL responsibility is essential.
There’s a simply-but-life-changing approach I’ve had in my life in order to ensure I always learn what I need to learn, always find the solutions I need to find, and always get the inspiration that I’m needing.
THIS is why I never ‘get stuck’.
THIS is why I’m constantly up-leveling the areas of my life that I set out to up-level.
I believe that inspiration and solutions and learning can come from anywhere. I know that I’m in charge and fully responsible for finding the solutions, inspirations and things I need to learn; and then applying it (as much, as often, as long as needed).
It’s a very simple, uncomplicated (yet, game-changing!) approach that you can use in ANY area of your life, including your weight loss goal or any goal related to your relationship with body image/food.
In this episode I teach you how to use the tools and the skills you’ve acquired and consistently apply them in your life in order to STOP FEELING STUCK with any weight/food related goals and to make positive, lasting change in all areas if you life.
My mission is to help you FEEL FULLY EQUIPPED to get unstuck..so that you can be your badass self in ALL areas of your life (including this one!).Check out this episode to learn more about my approach to learning and solutions, and how to apply it to your life!

...I mean, who doesn't right?!
Well, you'd think that was the case, but so many women feel nervous, worried, fearful, and mistrusting of themselves because they don't believe they have the ability to ENJOY a vacation without 'total sabotage', without 'blowing it.
[especially as the world re-opens post covid, and perhaps you haven't traveled in a while... ]
Some women don't even believe it's actually possible, but I'm here to tell you it is possible.
And also, I wanna tell you I get it.
Vacations and Travel for me used to be a guaranteed mental & emotional struggle, tons of sabotage, sooo much overeating and even ended up feeling physically sick and uncomfortable as a result of my 'F-it I'm on vacation' mentality.
So even though I've always loved traveling, this was always unwanted mental chatter that ultimately TOOK AWAY from my travel/vacation experiences.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
You deserve to enjoy your vacations and your world travels:
WEIGHT DRAMA FREE. FOOD DRAMA FREE.
When I travel now or have an upcoming vacation I can just be excited and ENJOY- because I have total peace. TOTAL TRUST. TOTAL CONFIDENCE.
(no more food worries. no more weight worries.)
I know this is what so many women are wanting (it's what I so desperately wanted!).
In this episode I teach you how to shift from 'F-it' vacation thinking, or Perfectionism and Fear (*which BTW- typically leads to more emotional eating) to BRAND NEW DIFFERENT APPROACH.
It's likely not what you're expecting.
It's changed my life.
(including my travel and my vacations!)
Give yourself the gift of TRUST, PEACE, CONNECTION & CONFIDENCE for your upcoming vacation and travels.

Women often feel insecure, guilty, ashamed and even secretive about the health/weight/body goals they have or WANT to have.
Women also experience SO MUCH fear and worry of judgement or rejection about health or weight related choices they make for themselves- particularly in social settings. (ie. when you're gonna be the only one NOT having a piece of cake. What will people think? yikes!)
The struggle is real.
Trust me. I've been there personally, and I've coached hundreds of clients on their very real fears of judgement and rejection (we coach on this almost weekly! never fails to come up. It's a classic.)
THIS truly is such a 'classic' element of sooo many women's ongoing experience of a struggle.
THE GREAT NEWS:
Just because it's been this way, doesn't mean it needs to feel this way forever. It's COMPLETELY possible for you to actually feel TRULY unapologetic and EVEN PROUD.
I've been able to transform my experience in this area of my life from feeling: deep painful shame and constant insecurity to now feeling: TOTAL CONFIDENCE (...and yes, even pride!)
Life coaching isn't about everyone's life and life choices looking the same... (hell to the naw)
THE LAST 10 approach with life coaching is about YOU as a totally unique individual (one-in-a-billion!) becoming FULLY equipped to create and live your life YOUR WAY.
This episode is a must listen. You'll learn about HOW YOU can transform this area of your life so that you can feel unapologetic confidence and even- PRIDE!
To learn HOW TO BODLY CREATE, LIVE & ENJOY the life, lifestyle and results you're wanting- LISTEN NOW.

One of the biggest issues brought to me by clients is this: 'I just don't know how to relax and unwind without food at the end of the day/week'...
Here's the thing:
OUR HUMANS BRAINS ARE DESIGNED TO SEEK PLEASURE AND AVOID PAIN. (It's part of something called the Motivational Triad!)
In short, it makes TOTAL sense for us as humans to seek forms of 'Escapism'.
ESCAPISM is defined as a mental diversion within our daily life and /or an 'escape' from the day-to-day routine activities.
I can't tell you how many women I've coached who have told me that they don't know how to relax, and that their ONLY method of escapism involves food.
In this week's podcast episode, I teach you the importance of NOT judging yourself or ANY forms of escapism 
but instead, to simply understand your mind, your brain, your choices, actions and results so that you can do 'ESCAPISM' ON PURPOSE. (That's ultimately what matters.)
If you feel like food is your only means of escapism, I want to invite you to diversify your options...to explore other means of escapism on purpose that work for YOU.
It's essential that we teach our brain how to relax, unwind, decompress and have other means of escapism that FIT INTO YOUR LIFE; that contribute to your life in a way that works for you.
NOT JUDGING my human brains' desire for escapism (motivational triad, remember!) and INSTEAD doing it 'on-purpose' has revolutionized my life (and results!).
To understand how to choose forms of escapism that work for you- LISTEN NOW.

This episode serves as a PSA, because I need you to know one VERY important piece of information: Weight loss is NOT an emergency.
An emergency is defined as a serious, life-threatening and/or dangerous situation requiring immediate action.
If the thought of losing weight or any part of your weight loss process has you feeling fear, panic, anxiety, stress, overwhelm or worry, I want you to really, deeply KNOW this and never forget it.
WEIGHT LOSS IS NOT AN EMERGENCY (again, louder for the people in the back!)
There are MANY reasons why it’s important NOT to view it as an emergency. One of them being, that when you do, this creates feelings of panic, fear, desperation, worry, anxiety, and inadequacy. & These feelings are not conducive to long-term, sustainable change.
These feelings typically make us wanna shut down or completely throw in the towel. These emotions are so much of what fuel what I like to call “F-it moments”. NOT USEFUL.
Instead, let’s retrain your brain to view weight loss SIMPLY AS A GOAL YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO HAVE.
That’s it. SO RADICALLY DIFFERENT. Game changer.
Once you let go of viewing weight loss as an emergency, and instead- simply see it as a goal you have CHOSEN to have (just because you want to!) you’ll be able to feel calm, cool, and collected ;) ...vs freaking the F*ck out! I get it. I’ve been there.
You’ll be able to stay checked IN with your body, your choices, your vision, your life.
You’ll be able to keep showing up to create the change you want to create.

Women will invest in just about ANYTHING (including new garage floors! *inside joke* listen to the episode to learn more ;) before they'll invest in THEMSELVES.
THIS matters.
THIS has a ripple effect in our lives.
& btw, it's no coincidence that this tends to be the default setting for women in our lives- as women we are socialized to put others needs, wants and desires ahead of our own.
In this episode, my client Jacki shares how making this one change (investing in herself!) had a ripple effect in her entire life.
There was no area of her life that didn't benefit from her finally deciding to invest in HER needs, wants and desires.
She didn't just lose the weight she wanted to lose, she empowered every area of her life.
Whether you decide to invest in yourself or not-
Check out this episode and be sure that you're making decision(s) about investing (or not investing) in things that matter for YOU, on purpose.

For a woman to be raised in the 21st century ( especially within a western culture!) is synonymous with BEING TAUGHT TO BE AT WAR WITH YOUR BODY.
This might sound exaggerated and overdramatic, BUT if you are a listener of this podcast- my guess is that the likelihood of you knowing EXACTLY what I'm talking about is pretty damn high.
Most of my clients feel this way when they come to me. They are exhausted from the never-ending battle with themselves and their body.
I understand this deeply because I've also been there.
In this episode, my client Minta shares how she was able to lose 50 pounds (which she couldn't have even imagined was possible!) ... and she lost this weight by rebuilding trust with herself, and creating a completely new relationship with her body that is now driven by LOVE and even admiration, vs the decades of daily self hatred.
She lost: 50 pounds.
She gained: TRUST, CONFIDENCE & LOVE.
If you're wanting a weight loss that doesn't just show up on the scale, but that penetrates to your VERY SOUL- you gotta listen to this one.
It's possible for you too, my sister.
It's time we put down the weapons and stop being at war with our own body (although, PLEASE know that it's not your fault, it's exactly what we've been taught...)
The good news is that no matter what you've learned and how much you've battled with all of this in the past: it's never too late, and I can show you a new way.

Ever feel like everyone else has got it ALL figured out except for you?
HINT: THIS is what most of us naturally think about ourselves UNLESS we change our constant self-judgement approach ON PURPOSE.
It's essential to make this change because as you might imagine: constantly thinking there's something wrong with you and your brain is NOT helping your goals AT ALL.
In this episode, I'm on a mission to make sure you know THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A PERFECT, perfectly 'behaved' HUMAN BRAIN.
& here's the best news of all: You don't need your brain to ONLY think positive, motivated, useful thoughts ALL OF THE TIME in order to change your results and your life.
YOU WILL NEED THESE 4 THINGS however:
(perfection NOT being one of them) Curiosity, Compassion, Awareness, and deliberate decision making.
In order to create epic results and transformation in any area of your life (including creating next-level weight results and upleveling your relationship with food) you can do it ALL with your human, imperfect brain.
