The shift in weight loss culture with PFN Dietitian, Stacy (part 2)

We are back with Part 2 with PFN Team Dietitian Stacy, talking about the shift in weight loss culture and several things that are contributors. 
Today, we dive deeper into how social media can shape expectations through things like:
AI and unrealistic perceptions,
The misuse of information that sets us up to fail
too much noise that can magnify shame.
But, social media has not just negatively impacted our weight loss culture. We mention several benefits to social media and how it empowers women in their weight loss.
I also spend some time diving into my journey with rest and why it matters in weight loss and overall health. 
Join Part 2 today for all the real talk with Stacy and I!

The things I struggle with most right now

In today’s episode, I am sharing some of my biggest struggles in my day-to-day life.
I know that most days you come here seeking expertise, but I think it is important that I often remind you that I have major struggles just like you.
 
Relating with others can be so empowering and be the encouragement that we need to just. keep. going. and it is part of my mission to always be totally transparent with you.
 
From ADHD, overstimulation, friendships, insecurity, people-pleasing, and fear of the unknown, I am still very much battling obstacles daily! 
No one is without difficulties and no amount of success or wisdom will change that.
BUT.
We do get better at holding it all over time.
 
So today, I am sharing more of my personal struggles and talking through how I am navigating it all.

The anonymous post about hopelessness in weight loss

A few months ago, we got a gut-wrenching anonymous post in our PFN Weight Loss community.
 
The overwhelm that she felt as a mother and wife, plus the pressure she was holding to lose weight became unbearable, so she reached out for support.
The response was so powerful that it brought tears to my eyes.
Today I am sharing the post and my six point response in detail. Because I know that if one of my own clients felt this way about weight loss, there are so many other women out there who do, too.
 
If the thought of weight loss brings shame, overwhelm, or exhaustion to mind, you do not want to miss this episode.

Quick meals with the PFN team

Fall is in full swing, which for many of us means BUSY SCHEDULES.
 
It can feel impossible to eat decently with so little time, but no worries- this is the episode for you!
 
On this episode of Say Grace, I brought the team together for a roundtable discussion of all our favorite quick and easy meals that help us survive the week without sacrificing our weight loss. 
 
From bowls, to freezer meals to drive-through orders, we've got you covered on getting food on the table with less stress!

What overwhelm is doing to women in weight loss

Overwhelm is consuming women everywhere and whether they realize it or not, it is directly impacting their weight loss success. 
On today's episode I am sharing how overwhelm is sabotaging your weight loss efforts and offering several ways to take your life (and weight loss) back!

The magic number in weight loss

You know we don't promote magic fixes when it comes to losing weight, but there is something that is often overlooked that can be a major game-changer in your weight loss consistency.
 
This magic number not only empowers you in your day-to-day of losing, but it also helps your physical and mental weight loss progress, too!
 
Plus it equips you to lose the weight in a way that will help you never regain it!
 
Today I am sharing all about what that magic number is and how to get it!
 

What my Mammaw taught me about food.. and a lot of other things

Grandmothers are special, and mine sure was.
 
A few weeks ago we lost my grandmother at age 90, and I have found myself reflecting on so much since then.
 
My grandmother was a pillar in our family, and she is where I get so much of my love and passion for food.
 
Now more than ever, I am aware of where my stance on food freedom and weight loss comes from and share the depths and reasoning behind that on today’s episode.
 
As much as I hope you love this episode and maybe see some of your own memories in mine, this episode is really meant to be a heart pour to honor my grandmother and how she impacted me. 🕊️
