161: Birthday Special: Clients Ask Me Anything
For this very special birthday episode, I'm doing something totally different. Instead of me asking the questions, I handed the mic to my amazing clients and let them interview me. What started as a fun idea turned into one of my favorite episodes ever. You'll hear stories I've never shared before, what inspired me to become a coach, and what I've learned through every messy, glorious, imperfect step along the way. I also answer a question I was asked one year ago: Did I actually hit the goal I set for myself? Let's find out together. 🎉 And don't forget—we're celebrating the 3-year anniversary of the podcast!

160: Weight Loss Series Part 3 - The Other Side
In this final installment of our 3-part series on the 10 Normal Phases of Weight Loss, I'm walking and talking—literally—while bringing you the most transformational part of the journey.

If you've ever wondered what it actually feels like to maintain results with ease without obsessing over the number, this episode is for you. We're going far beyond food and scale wins. These phases are about healing your relationship with yourself, allowing identity growth, and making maintenance not only doable but desirable. 🎉 And don't forget—we're celebrating the 3-year anniversary of the podcast!

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still aren't seeing results, this episode is for you. It's not about discipline. It's not about willpower. It's about identifying the strategic gaps that have quietly been stalling your progress and learning how to finally fill them. In this second part of the 10 Phases series, I walk you through phases 4 to 7: the turning point where things can either fall apart or finally come together. You'll learn how to handle discomfort, what to do when your plan goes off the rails, and how to keep going even when things get messy. 🎉 And don't forget—we're celebrating the 3-year anniversary of the podcast!

157: Early Wins with New Client Dr. Camille R
In this week's episode, I'm doing something I've never done before: bringing on a brand-new client who hasn't even started live coaching yet inside The Unstoppable Group. Camille, a full-time OB/GYN and mom, shares her early wins and the subtle but powerful mindset shifts that started happening the moment she said yes to herself. From reducing cravings to feeling better in her scrubs, Camille talks candidly about what changed for her before anything official even began and why investing in her goals (even with unpredictable hours and a toddler at home) was the best decision she's made this year. Dr. Camille Roque is a generalist OB/GYN in Northern California. She is happily married and has a two-year-old who keeps her busy after work. When she's not chasing after her toddler, she enjoys traveling and crafting. She is excited to join the next cohort and hopes to embrace her perfectionist tendencies—openly admitting them and using them as a strength within the group. Additionally, she is eager to explore new and sustainable ways to enjoy food and lifestyle changes. Most of all, she is thrilled to join a group of like-minded, strong women who inspire and support one another.

155: The Dopamine Ritual to Weight Loss Success
Ever wonder why you reach for a snack or scroll through your phone when you're not actually hungry? It's not because you're weak or lazy—it's brain science. Your brilliant brain has learned that these rituals provide a quick hit of dopamine, making them hard to resist. But the problem is, those habits also keep you stuck, sabotaging your weight loss goals and leaving you feeling frustrated. In this episode, I'm sharing an excerpt from a recent coaching call where I taught my clients how to rewire their brains using the power of dopamine. You'll learn how to create new rituals that actually serve you without relying on willpower alone.
