This episode is so chock full of information, I don't even know where to start! In this episode I interviewed my own weight loss coach that helped me lose 25 stubborn pounds and keep them off.  As much as the weight loss was amazing, what's more amazing are the other changes I made to my mindset. In this episode you will learn all about what it takes to create lasting weight loss.  You'll learn about terms like "insulin resistance," the true things that happen from the processed foods we eat, the real cause of weight gain, how to deal with urges and cravings, and all about what causes the dreaded "plateau" in weight loss that has derailed our progress countless times. Laura de Sans is a weight loss phycisian and mindset coach.  After 15 yrs of practicing medicine she saw a lot of patients struggling to lose weight permenently.  Classic diets treat being overweight as a symptom and that's why the solutions only work temporarily.  In order to get to the root cause of the weight you need to understand why a person overeats. Laura found that people tend to over eat for one or more of the following three reasons... 1) over hunger (a hormonal imbalance) 2)over desire (your brain gives more importance to food than it has) 3)emotional eating (using food to neutralize problems) Luckily, all of these causes are fixable!  This opens up a whole new paradigm in the weight loss industry, work on a deeper level where weight loss is the byproduct. "A lighter body starts with a lighter mind." You can find Dr. Laura de Sans on instagram @lastingweightlosswithlaura or email hello@lauradesans.com

Have you ever had one of those "a-ha" moments about yourself that simultaniously made you feel relieved and ashamed?  That's what happened to me when I (the self- proclaimed "mindset maven") came to the realization that I am a judgemental person- judgemental mostly of myself.  Most importantly how it has halted my personal growth!   If you are wondering if you are a judgmental person too or if maybe this is hindering your personal growth, I invite you to listen in to this episode of both self discovery and a recipe for change.  Judgement is a problem, but it can easily be transformed into learning and therefore LOTs of personal growth.

Katie was born and raised in Maine, but currently lives in Atlanta with her husband, 2 yr old son, and terrier-chihuahua.  Katie has an undergrad degree in French and International Relations which allowed her to travel all over Europe, and also led her to fall even more in love with food.  From there she went to the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) in NYC for a degree in Baking and Pastry Arts.  She worked in restaurants and bakeries in both New York City and Atlanta, as well as food related non-profits, but after almost 10 years in the industry she knew this was something she no longer wanted to pursue (especially for her mental health!) From there she decided to make the leap and do something she had always wanted to do, get her Master's Degree in Human Nutrition.  She actually became pregnant right before she started the program and had her son during her second semester.  This resulted in an very busy and hectic program, but it showed her exactly who she would eventually want to work with- moms or parents looking to balance their life when It comes to nutrition! You are going to love hearing about Katie's journey, and hearing her great tips on how to tackle your new year goals!  Stay tuned till the end for a special offer from Katie just for my listeners!!!

Are you ever wondering why some people always seem to have the success?  Or why life seems to be rigged in some peoples' favor and not others?   In this episode I break down the difference between the 2 types of mindsets, growth mindset and fixed mindset.
