Happy Thanksgiving!

Let's be honest for a moment…
This weekend is basically the Olympics of old family patterns, emotional eating triggers, and conversations you definitely did not sign up for—sprinkled, of course, with a little gratitude.

So I thought: What better time to share something powerful I brought home from Tony Robbins' Unleash the Power Within last month?

If Tony can get people walking on fire (yes, including me!), then surely we can get through Thanksgiving without diving headfirst into the stuffing bowl.

In this week's podcast episode, I'm breaking down one of the simplest yet most transformative reminders Tony shared during UPW. It's something you're already doing moment by moment, whether you realize it or not:

your day, your mood, your body, your choices… and ultimately, how you feel inside your own skin.**

These three decisions influence whether you end the day feeling aligned and powerful—or frazzled and frustrated.

In the episode, I walk you through Tony's "Three Decisions," and then, because I love you and I want you to have the calmest, most grounded, gratitude-filled holiday possible…
I guide you through a special Thanksgiving version.

Think of it as emotional Spanx—
It holds you together and smooths everything out.

This is your chance to shift your focus, choose better meaning, and take actions that support you feeling like the healthiest, happiest version of yourself… even in the middle of holiday chaos.

So take a deep breath.
Drop your shoulders.
Release the neck tension you've already built up just thinking about Thursday…

And come on in.

So many people in our Thin Thinking community aren't just navigating weight, food, and mindset… they're also carrying quiet anxiety under the surface. And as the holidays approach—with the social events, family expectations, food everywhere, and the pressure to be "on"—that anxiety can really kick into high gear.

That's why I am so excited about this week's Thin Thinking Podcast episode with Brad Robinson, creator of the Anxiety Project Podcast.

Brad and I dive into the kind of practical, grounded tools you can start using immediately—perfect for this season when your nervous system may feel a little extra tender.

It's an empowering, compassionate conversation that I know will support you—especially as we head into a season that can feel overwhelming for even the calmest among us.

I hope you'll tune in, take what resonates, and feel a little more grounded, confident, and supported as you move through the holidays.

Some conversations invite us to slow down. To breathe differently. To step out of the rush of our lives and into the quieter places we often avoid — the ones where grief, memory, and healing wait patiently for us to catch up.

Today's episode is one of those conversations.

My guest, Barbara Wansbrough, didn't set out to write a book about grief. She set out to take a walk — one that eventually led her through forests, along coastlines, and into the tender terrain of losing her sister. The result is Wild Things: A Geography of Grief, a breathtaking collection of letters that reads like both a love story and a survival guide.

In this episode, Barbara shows us that healing doesn't always arrive with dramatic breakthroughs. Sometimes it shows up in the rhythm of your strides, the feel of wind on your face, or the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other when the heart feels heavy.

If you've ever found yourself in a season where life asks you to let go, to begin again, or to navigate a loss with no clear map — consider this your invitation.

Let's step into the wild and see what it has to teach us.

Come on in.

Wild Things: A Geography of Grief by Barbara Wansbrough

In This Episode, You'll Also Learn…

• How walking can gently re-pattern grief in the body, creating space for clarity, calm, and emotional release.

• Why small, intentional rituals can soothe the soul more effectively than food, distraction, or "pushing through."

• How embracing the "wild" parts of grief can lead to unexpected strength, softness, and a deeper sense of belonging in your own life.

Have you ever put off a dream because of your weight?

That was Dr. Marie Strenger's reality as well. As an emergency room physician, she spent years caring for everyone else while her own needs kept getting pushed aside. Between exhausting shifts, stress, and that familiar "I'll start again tomorrow," she felt stuck—until she discovered a different path.

Through the Shift Weight Mastery Process and hypnosis, Marie began making simple mental and habit shifts: a quick meditation in the car after work, long ocean walks with her husband, and small daily choices that brought her back to herself. The weight came off, the food noise softened, and her energy returned.

And then she celebrated in the most unforgettable way—by paragliding over the Dolomites in Italy, soaring into a new chapter with a lighter body and a freer mind.

This week's episode, it isn't just about weight loss—it's about freedom, joy, and the confidence to say yes to the life waiting for you. Whether that means a peaceful holiday season, a daily walk, or your own version of flying above the Alps, Marie's story will show you what's possible when you stop "starting over" and start shifting for good.

Remember those permission slips we needed as kids — the ones that let us go on a field trip or try something new? Or the approvals we had to wait for at work before we could move a project forward?

Here's the thing… many of us are still waiting for that green light — only now, it's coming from inside our own minds.

If you've been stuck in the start-over cycle with your weight, there's a good chance that a deeper part of you hasn't yet granted permission to fully go for long-term success.

In this week's episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast, we're diving into the 10 fundamental self-permissions that can shift you out of diet mentality and struggle — and into lasting Weight Mastery.

These are the same inner agreements that helped me move from years of yo-yo dieting to 30 years of stable weight release — and the same ones my clients use to finally get off the hamster wheel for good.

It's time to stop waiting for someone else's approval — and give yourself permission to succeed.

Have you ever known exactly what to do to eat healthy — but still couldn't make it happen?

You're not alone. My guest this week, Michelle Wolfson, knows that feeling all too well. As a chef and nutritional manager, she was an expert at helping others manage their diets for all kinds of medical conditions. But behind the scenes, she was struggling — battling her own weight and feeling like an imposter in her own profession.

Then something shifted.

Michelle has now released 48 pounds and maintained that success for over seven months — not through more willpower or stricter dieting, but through self-compassion and the Shift process.

Her story is a powerful reminder that real transformation doesn't come from what we know — it comes from how we think and how we treat ourselves along the way.

Tune in to hear Michelle's inspiring journey on this week's episode of The Thin Thinking Podcast.

Have you ever looked back at your younger self and felt a deep ache for all the years spent struggling with food, weight, and self-worth?

​In this week's Thin Thinking episode​, I sit down with Kerrie—a lifelong Texan, former corporate leader, and consulting hypnotist—who knows that feeling all too well. After decades of "diet stacking" and chasing the next quick fix, she joined Shift in March 2024—and everything began to change.

By December, Kerrie had released 30 pounds and has been confidently maintaining ever since. But her biggest transformation wasn't just on the scale—it was in how she saw and treated herself.

Kerrie shares the grief she felt for her younger self, the freedom of stepping off the diet merry-go-round, and the joy of finally living with confidence, peace, and self-trust.

If you've ever felt the pain of starting over again and again, Kerrie's story will help you see what's truly possible when you stop dieting—and start shifting.

Tune in and be inspired to make peace with yourself and your journey.
