The Burn Stress Lose Weight Podcast

Feel like you've "learned the lesson" but still end up repeating the same mistakes? Whether it's in weight loss, family life, or your career, knowing something and actually using it are two very different things. In this episode, I'm breaking down the two types of learning and why the second one is the real key to lasting change. Tune in to hear how lessons from failed trips, weight loss struggles, and even medical training turned into the building blocks for success and how you can do the same in your own life.

Ever had one of those moments where fear takes over and you make a decision you know you wouldn't normally make?

This isn't just a cautionary tale about online scams—it's a powerful lesson about mindset, support, and what it really takes to hit your body and life goals without spinning your wheels in confusion.

Believing in yourself doesn't always come easily—especially when your past is full of evidence that makes you doubt what's possible. In this episode we're talking about a subtle but powerful shift: moving from "Do I believe in myself today?" to "Can I believe in my potential?" Through stories, reflections, and even lessons from her son's swim journey, I'm sharing how to unlock a new way of thinking about growth, setbacks, and success. If you've ever felt stuck because your progress wasn't linear, this conversation will give you a refreshing perspective on what's really required to reach your goals, on or off the scale.

September often feels like a fresh start: the kids are back in school, routines shift, and there's a natural pull toward new goals.

Perfectionism can be a super-skill… until it quietly becomes the very thing holding you back. In this episode, I'm sharing the results of a not-so-secret experiment I've been running to break free from overthinking, reclaim my time, and find more presence in my life. What started as a simple shift in how I approached this podcast turned into a powerful lesson about pressure, productivity, and freedom. If you've ever felt weighed down by your own high standards or found yourself second-guessing decisions to the point of exhaustion, this episode will give you a fresh perspective and a few practical strategies you can use right away.

We've all said it before: "I'm doing everything, and it's not working." It feels true. It feels justified. But it's also the exact thought that keeps so many overachievers stuck in frustration, burnout, and start–stop momentum. In this episode, I'm adding a little extra "masala to the chai" and calling out this sneaky, disempowering sentence for what it really is: a silent results killer. We'll dig into why it's so costly, how to spot it in your own inner soundtrack, and the high-currency questions that can flip it into progress.

Let's be honest—boredom doesn't feel sexy or motivational… but it might just be the exact ingredient your future self is counting on. In today's episode, I'm coming to you straight from my car (yes, really!) after a StairMaster session that reminded me why I do what I do and why I used to resist this kind of work so hard. I'm talking all about how to embrace boredom without burnout, and how your ability to take consistent action might have less to do with willpower and more to do with your relationship with your three identities: your past self, your present self, and your future self. If you've ever thought "I'm just not that kind of person," this episode is for you.

This week, I'm sharing a conversation that's especially close to my heart—with one of my real-life best friends, Dr. Devon Gimbel. She's a physician turned travel expert and the host of the Point Me to First Class podcast, and she's the person who first introduced me to the idea that travel—especially solo travel—can be transformational in the best way. In this episode, we talk about what it means to take a trip just for you, without your family, without guilt, and without needing to "earn it" first. We dive into our different upbringings, travel histories, and how giving ourselves permission to explore—literally and emotionally—has shifted everything. If you've ever felt the pull to go somewhere alone but felt selfish even thinking about it… this one's for you.
