Ladies, I’m sharing a story with you today, and I know you are all going to feel me on this one. I was carrying a lot of extra weight on my body and I just wanted it all to be gone. We want the weight off fast and we constantly search for a “magical” food […]
Continue readingEp #41: What If You Were Curious?
Let me lay out a scenario I see so often with my ladies. You see a number on the scale and you didn’t lose any weight, or maybe you’ve even gained some weight. The beatdown starts, you’re telling yourself you’re a failure, that you’re always going to be overweight, and you stay on the path […]

Something so many of us ladies struggle with, especially when we’re on the diet roller coaster, is experiencing failure. Whether it’s failing to stick to a food plan or not losing the amount of weight we want to, it’s something we all fear and want to avoid at all cost. I’m sharing a personal story […]
Continue readingEp #40: Emotional vs Physical Hunger
We are about 15 weeks in since the eruption of the coronavirus and I know that so many of my ladies in The Transform Society are feeling all the feels, and they’re using food to push down and push away their emotions. Emotional hunger is something you’re probably familiar with if you’ve been on the […]

I recently took a quick survey to ask my ladies what stands in the way of their weight loss journeys, and the biggest and most recurring one was time. I have spent years telling myself I didn’t have the time to take care of myself, that I was too busy, that I couldn’t carve out […]

I remember when overeating at night was just routine for me and it was one of the hardest things to stop. After a long day at work, I would immediately start planning what I was going to eat when I got home. I was tired, my defenses were down, and I was just looking to […]
Continue readingFacebook Live 1: Allowing Negative Emotion
I took a break from releasing content over the last week because I have been listening and learning in my commitment to stand with black men and women. I’ve had to confront my own beliefs and internal biases, and it’s uncomfortable work. I’ve found myself, at times, being defensive, shameful, uncomfortable, and even resistant, but […]

I was recently in the process of shipping out some BFLY swag and brochures to my clients, and it’s a process that I often dread. I think about how it takes too long, and so I don’t want to do it. This reminded me of how my clients have the same thoughts about weight loss […]
