I've been on a lot of podcasts lately, but this recent episode with Deb Masner from Alcohol Tipping Point is one that stands out. On her podcast, Deb shares personal stories and her expertise as a nurse, health coach, and sober person, as well as brings on experts about the different ways alcohol can impact physical and mental health, relationships, and overall quality of life.
I work with a lot of sober folks and food often was either their original issue and then alcohol supplanted it, or in coming off alcohol, they turned to food (especially sugar) because we can only really focus on one thing at a time.
In this episode from the Alcohol Tipping Point, Deb makes personal connections that have eluded her for years. I was so thrilled she was willing to work through my coaching questions as I have these deeper conversations every day in my groups, but they would obviously never make it onto the air. So, I'm grateful Deb was willing to go there with me.
If you're struggling with food yourself, you'll hear 3 questions that may help you connect your own dots. If you're a coach, I hope you'll hear how my approach is different than a lot of what's out there. Rather than thinking clients fall off track from lack of willpower, discipline, needing a better plan or poor time management, you'll start to get a sense of the deeper invisible thread of belonging that runs through and connects why people's biggest food, exercise, and health challenges actually make sense.

Liz Wolfe has been in the nutrition and wellness space almost as long as I have, so it's hard to believe our paths haven't really crossed until now! This in-depth conversation is a paradigm shift from how we often think about metabolism, which is basically just about calorie burning and boosting. Metabolism—especially at midlife-ish—is about so much more and (news alert!) most of what we've read and been fed about metabolism and aging is either wrong or misunderstood. We also get into what Liz describes as her "intentional weight loss" with peptides (and the backlash) and much more.

Alcohol is one of the most consumed forms of sugar and quitting alcohol can lead to an increase in sugar cravings and consumption. In this episode, bestselling author Laura McKowen and I discuss:
Rewind Episode Note:
Increasingly, clients and participants in my Truce with Food group program are sober and now looking to examine their relationship with food, especially sugar. To explore this intricate relationship and and celebrate the recent paperback release of Push Off from Here: Nine Essential Truths to Get You Through Sobriety (and Everything Else) I've decided to publish this rewind episode (an Insatiable listener favorite) where I go deep with Laura about all things alcohol and sugar cravings.
This episode was originally recorded in 2020, shortly after the publication of Laura’s bestselling We Are The Luckiest: The Surprising Magic of a Sober Life.

Today’s solo episode grew out of Oprah’s Weight Loss Special Shame, Blame and the Weight Loss Revolution that aired on ABC this Monday night. Because it’s network TV, only so much could be covered, which is why I created this episode to go deeper.
Most of the people having big reactions to Oprah's weight loss are those who’ve never struggled with their weight (and so don’t understand) OR those who have historically struggled with weight and haven’t yet found the peace they want with their bodies.
As someone who struggled with her body and weight for two decades, I know how sensitive it can be to be in a place where you’re struggling. Our culture is fat phobic and really hard on people in large bodies. I’m hoping this episode can help us unearth what’s really going on and why fat phobia is one of the last accepted prejudices.
The opportunities for us to be triggered are seemingly endless with these types of conversations. And yet, I believe that we shouldn’t let the fear of possibly triggering someone keep us from having these deeper discussions that can—over time—shift our perspectives for the better. Let's keep the conversation going...
