Most of us have a hard time being proud of ourselves. It’s easy to get wrapped up in all the things you didn’t do, could have done better, or should have done.
But when you can start to find the proud moments, it motivates you to do more- it motivates you to show up in a way that energizes you and fulfills you vs. in a way that depletes you.
Tune in to learn why it’s important to start looking for reasons to be proud of yourself- not just in weight loss, but in all areas of your life. When you feel proud of yourself, you’ll want to take more action, and that in turn, that will lead to more pride.

People pleasing is a popular topic I've been coaching on in my membership these last couple weeks.
People pleasing around food comes up a lot for women- in social situations, with family and friends and work events.
We people please to protect ourselves. It's a behavior turned into a pattern, turned into a habit. And YOU can absolutely begin to change this habit.
In this episode, I'm chatting about why it happens and what you can do to start showing up in your life with more time, attention, love and connection for yourself, your goals and all the important people in your life.

My weight loss isn’t happening fast enough. Ever had that thought?
It’s one of those thoughts that can send you down a spiral of diet mentality, punishing yourself into weight loss, and hopping back on that yo-yo diet merry go round- and I want to make sure that doesn’t happen to you.
In this episode, I’m going to tell you exactly how to move out of the feelings of frustration and defeat that you may experience when you’re not seeing the progress you expected.
And remember, part of weight loss is changing WHO you become during the process. And this takes time, as the most significant and long-lasting change does.
Continue to trust in yourself and in the process. I’m rooting for you!
