Today's episode is the Season 1 finale! In this episode, I'm sharing some of the truth bombs that help keep me locked during periods when my motivation fades. If you're tired of negotiating with your goals, this one is for you. I'm unpacking the quote that's been my phone wallpaper for weeks—"Confidence in public comes from discipline in private"—and sharing more of the tough love mantras that I think you'll find helpful on your journey. I'll share the Season 2 return date on YouTube and with the email list, so be sure you're subscribed for when GHoGH is back for Season 2.

Are you constantly looking to others for validation, reassurance, or permission—whether it’s about your weight loss, your decisions, or even your own feelings? That’s emotional outsourcing, and in this episode, we’re breaking down how this habit disconnects you from your own inner wisdom, holds back your growth, and keeps you from fully trusting yourself.

You’ve probably heard that “a calorie is just a calorie,” but is that really true? Not exactly. In this episode, we're breaking down why all calories are not created equal and how different foods impact more than just our fat loss journey—they affect our hunger, cravings, and energy levels, too. Whether you're tracking calories or just trying to eat healthier, what we eat is just as important as how much we eat. There's a reason 500 calories of sugar leaves us starving an hour later, while 500 calories of protein, fiber, and balance keeps us full for hours.

You are making more progress than you think! In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to track your progress in a way that actually reflects your hard work beyond the scale.

I’ll break down key metrics that go beyond fat loss so you can understand how to track real improvements beyond the number on the scale. Plus, we’ll talk about how to weigh yourself strategically (without becoming obsessive) so that fluctuations don’t mess with your mindset. If you’re tired of letting the scale control your journey, this episode will give you a smarter, healthier way to track your progress! Links to Body Composition Scales / Body Analyzer Options:

• iHealth Nexus Smart Scale (I currently own and love this scale)
• Etekcity Smart Scale for Body Weight
• Arboleaf (8-Electrode) Smart Body Fat Scale
• Note: I’m collaborating with a brand (not included in the list above) on a body analyzer video for YouTube before the end of February. I’ve tested it and love it! I’ll share the link once the video is live. However, that body analyzer is much pricier than the options listed above—these are all great choices too!
