    In this episode, Teresa opens up about the all-too-familiar weight loss struggle—and how impatience can sabotage even our best intentions. As a private fitness coach and former athlete competitor, she’s seen the emotional toll of yo-yo dieting firsthand—and lived it too, especially through the weight gain and hormonal changes brought on by menopause.

    With personal stories and real talk, Teresa explores why quick fixes fail, why mindset matters, and how to stop starting over. She shares practical, sustainable tips to help you stay consistent—like identifying your why, setting realistic goals, making smart nutrition choices, moving your body regularly, and celebrating small wins without guilt.

    If you’re frustrated, stuck, or feeling like you’re doing everything “right” and still not seeing progress—this episode is for you. Because lasting change isn’t just about what you eat or how you move. It’s about how you think, how you show up for yourself, and how willing you are to play the long game.
