Why is it so easy to regain weight after losing it? You follow the plan, you see the scale go down, your clothes fit better, and then somehow the weight comes back. The worst part about weight regain for some people is that it feels like a personal failure. But in today's episode, we are here to tell you the truth: weight regain is a biologically and psychologically driven response. Not a sign of a person being weak, lazy, or lacking willpower.Join us as we break down a recent research review published in the Journal Nutrients (see The Interplay Between Psychological and Neurobiological Predictors of Weight Regain: A Narrative Review). You will learn how self-efficacy, emotional regulation, and traits like impulsivity, perfectionism, and dichotomous thinking play significant roles in weight maintenance. Discover practical strategies for boosting self-control, managing stress, and employing flexibility to achieve lasting success. We also explore how brain activity and hormonal changes impact weight and discuss the benefits of cognitive behavioral therapy and medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists. Whether you're beginning your weight loss journey or focusing on maintenance, this episode offers insights to help you succeed in the real world.00:25 The Struggle of Weight Regain01:36 Psychological Factors in Weight Maintenance05:31 Emotional Regulation and Weight09:24 Biological Factors in Weight Regain16:24 Strategies for Long-Term Weight Maintenance22:01 Conclusion and SupportConnect with Georgie and the Confident Eaters Coaches: WebsiteFacebookGeorgie's Instagram Christina's Instagram Have you ever thought, "I know what to do, I just need to consistently do it"?

Power is an elusive force, but Robert Greene distills it into 48 strategic laws that have stood the test of time. In this review, I break down the core themes, structure, and key takeaways from The 48 Laws of Power—a book that is equally revered and feared.This isn't just another self-help book; it's a deep dive into historical power dynamics, manipulation, and strategy. From Machiavelli to Napoleon, Greene extracts lessons from history's most cunning figures. But is this a manual for domination or a cautionary tale?

Show NotesOn this episode of The Resource Doula, I chat with Hays about their work as a doula, photographer, and advocate for informed choice. And how they help clients feel more empowered and informed so they can have the birth and postpartum experience that leaves them feeling capable and proud. Hays also talks about how to prepare for birth rather than planning your way out of it and what life might look like if we actually honored people's choices when it comes to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.Resources they mentioned:Spiky squeeze tool for laborBook: Transformed By Birth: Cultivating Openness, Resilience, and Strength for the Life-Changing Journey from Pregnancy to Parenthood by Britta BushnellEvidence Based Birth websiteYouTube channel by Nancy MohrbacherKelly Mom site for breastfeeding and early parenting supportConnect with Hays:Follow @empoweredbirthalaska on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/empoweredbirthalaska/Visit Hays' site here: https://www.empoweredbirthalaska.com/If you found this podcast helpful, please consider writing a positive review in your favorite podcast app or on YouTube!

TRIGGER WARNING: Whitney does share thoughts about suicide in today's episode. She shares this from her private journal to be transparent in speaking to other grievers about where she has been on her journey and what she's done to get through those hard days. Why is Whitney proud to be a selfish griever? Because putting her needs first on her grief journey is what supported her, and she believes all grievers should be doing the same. Because what helped her may not help you, but that doesn't mean you can't find what does help you. Soliciting advice from others, learning tools to help you and trying different things are all healthy ways to make progress on your grief journey. Trusting your intuition, gut, or heart to tell you what feels right for you is what will serve you best in finding a way to move forward. We hope that all grieving mothers are being especially gentle and listening to themselves as we approach this beautiful but difficult holiday, Mother's Day, this weekend.

Episode SummaryFeeling uncertain can leave us feeling anxious, confused and stuck. One thing I've learned working with clients and on my own personal growth journey is that uncertainty is necessary for deep and lasting change. In this week's episode, you'll receive practical tools and examples to embrace uncertainty in a grounded, trusting and skilful way. You'll learn ways to think about uncertainty as a positive sign of self-growth rather than a feeling of stuckness or fear. You'll experience a guided meditation to gain strength in uncertainty by integrating sources of strength available to you and activation of the solar plexus chakra for self-empowerment and alignment with your true nature. You'll be guided into a state of deeper alignment and grounding as you integrate self-love, gratitude and compassion into your present state of being.Episode NotesDo you sometimes feel lost? Like you're navigating life's journey without a map? Where it's hard to get clarity to set a goal and move forward. And your greatest wish is to be able to navigate times of uncertainty in a positive, focused and motivated way?Feeling uncertain can leave us feeling anxious, confused and stuck. We're all wired like this as humans, in order to keep ourselves safe we will try to minimize risk and maximize reward. One thing I've learned working with clients and on my own personal growth journey is that uncertainty is necessary for deep and lasting change. It can be quite unsettling when we can't get clarity on our next steps no matter what we do. We can end up holding ourselves back from making decisions out of fear of not being certain about the next steps. So in order to keep moving forward to achieve your goal, trusting in uncertainty is essential. Uncertainty is par for the course in major life transitions. These can be natural transitions or ones brought about by devastating or shocking situations. We also experience these when the collective consciousness is forced into a new way or new normal like we've all just experienced with the global pandemic. And lastly (and this is the best one) when the personal growth work you've been doing culminates in an identity shift, allowing you to finally step into a new way of being.Trusting in uncertainty is like standing on the edge of a canyon seeing the other side and trusting that the earth will rise to meet your feet when you take the first step.Before we can have this level of trust, it is important to reframe uncertainty from a place of fear of the unknown to a place of empowerment and knowing that a safe delivery to the desired destination is guaranteed.In this episode, you'll learn ways to think about uncertainty as a positive sign of self-growth rather than a feeling of stuckness or fear. You'll receive practical tools and examples to embrace uncertainty in a grounded, trusting and skilful way. You'll experience a guided meditation to gain strength in uncertainty and be guided into a state of deeper alignment and grounding as you integrate self-love, gratitude and compassion into your present state of being. Key Points include:How uncertainty is a positive sign of self-growth.Learn how identity shifts create uncertaintyHow to navigate identity shifts and bring forward the new identity.How trusting in uncertainty takes supportConnect to the support of your ancestorsUsing Movements of the Family Soul to release ancestral entanglements.How the Big/Little Dynamic must be healed before ancestral strength can be accessed.Guided meditation to find your centre, activate self-empowerment, connect with your ancestral support and integrate all parts of you into self-love, compassion and gratitude.

When Whitney met Mary she saw a professional woman with sharp wit and a lively countenance. Like so many grievers, Mary's grief was not visible on her surface. But when Mary confided in Whitney that she knew something of sudden loss and traumatic grief, when her new boyfriend died in a motorcycle accident, it was clear from the conversation that Mary's experience had changed her life. Whitney reflected on what she had been like at the age of 24, when life was endless possibilities and she embodied the youthful innocence that nothing bad would ever happen to her. What would that be like to have that ripped away overnight? And how would the 24-year-old Whitney have handled the grief she knows so well now? Whitney believes she would have have done well. And that was why she wanted to have Mary on the show to share a young adult's perception of grief and the ways it has changed her life.Are you a huge fan of the show?
