Ep.84 Modern Body Modern Life - How to Lose Weight for the Last Time

Asking for a Friend - Health, Fitness & Personal Growth Tips for Women in Midlife

Does the thought of permanent weight loss without diets or deprivation sound too good to be true? We’ve got Courtney Gray, a seasoned life and body coach, debunking that myth right here on "Asking for a Friend." Courtney takes us through her personal journey and shares her no-drama approach to achieving and maintaining your ideal weight, focusing on health, wellness, and the intricate role of mindset.
We also delve into the complex relationship between our eating habits and body image. Courtney encourages us to face the truth about our dietary choices and to understand how societal pressures and childhood experiences shape our eating behaviors. Offering a fresh perspective, she emphasizes the power of self-love, acceptance, and the identification of emotional eating triggers. We discuss alternative coping mechanisms for negative emotions - ones that don’t involve food.
Lastly, we tackle the often-ignored concept of embracing discomfort to spur personal growth. Whether it’s weight loss, body acceptance, or embarking on a new career, stepping out of your comfort zone is key. We highlight the pressures women face during significant life transitions and the importance of finding a balance between physical health and mental well-being. Join us on this enlightening journey towards a healthier, more self-loving you. Let's learn, grow, and transform together.
