    S13 EP22: Seven things making your life harder.
    Apr 14 2026

    In this episode of the Thick Thighs Saves Lives Podcast, we’re calling out seven habits that may feel productive… but are secretly holding you back. We’re talking about the ones that drain your energy, kill your consistency, and keep you spinning your wheels.

    From decision fatigue and doom scrolling to over-customizing your routine, we’re breaking down why these patterns backfire and what to do instead.

    Because the goal isn’t to do more.

    It’s to stop sabotaging yourself.

    If any of these habits have your name on them, let’s call them out for what they are. Then you decide. Keep them. Toss them. Or maybe just switch them up a bit.

    (00:01:00) Welcome to the TTSL Podcast

    (00:05:02) Why you can’t blindly trust Ai

    (00:09:41) Things making your life harder (that you think help)(00:16:52) Too many options becomes decision fatigue

    (00:24:00) Looking at screens is not rest or recovery
    (00:31:55) Over-customizing is keeping you from starting

    (00:35:50) Why you shouldn’t eliminate stress altogether

    (00:43:16) “Saving” calories is hurting your metabolism

    (00:48:29) Saying yes to everything

    S13 EP21: Food choice is not about willpower. | Lacey Baier
    Apr 7 2026
    Today, we’re joined by nutrition coach and Cleanish founder Lacey Baier, who shares how losing 80 pounds the “hard way” (think: extreme restriction, constant hunger, and white-knuckling discipline) ultimately led to burnout and why she had to completely rebuild her approach to food from the ground up.This conversation goes beyond macros and meal plans. It’s about why so many women feel stuck between “all-in” and “off the rails,” how under-eating shows up in sneaky ways (even when you think you’re doing well), and how to create a system that actually works with a busy, real-life schedule.We also get into:Why perfection is the fastest way to failThe mindset shift that makes nutrition sustainableHow to stop starting over every MondayWhat “balanced” eating actually looks like day-to-daySimple ways to prioritize protein without overhauling your lifeIf you’re tired of knowing what to do but not being able to live it consistently this episode will help.Lacey’s Links:https://cleanish.com/Birthday Cake Protein Bites RecipeTo pre-order on Amazon: Cleanish Meal Prep: High-Protein Recipes for Real Life, which releases on May 19:https://www.amazon.com/Cleanish-Meal-Prep-High-Protein-Recipes/dp/1628606126(00:01:47) “I Ate As Little As Possible”… Here’s What Happened(00:03:10) Why We Romanticize Being Miserable to Be Thin(00:05:46) Calories In vs Calories Out (Still Wrong in 2026)(00:08:35) Why Eating Less Stops Working in Midlife (00:10:55) The Real Goal: Strength, Energy, and Longevity(00:14:30) The Protein Problem No One Talks About(00:18:05) The 80/20 “Clean-ish” Approach That Actually Works(00:29:40) How Much Protein You Actually Need (00:37:45) Lacey’s Meal Prep Fail (Don’t Do This)(00:41:15) The Simple Meal Prep Strategy That Actually Works(00:48:15) High-Protein Desserts That Actually Taste Good(00:52:33) Where to find Lacey BaierWant to leave the TTSL Podcast a voicemail?

    Does sleep feel like an old friend you desperately want to reconnect with?

    • How anxiety about sleep makes it worse

answer: no, they are perfectly safe.

I'm majorly disappointed CVG would give a platform to a know-nothing grifter like Steven Rofrano. he's not a doctor or a dietitian, just a former software engineer who watched too many wellness influencer videos on TikTok and now peddles overpriced snack chips for Erewhon. I had to stop listening to the podcast so my head wouldn't explode, never heard so many patently untrue statements in one sitting SMH.

Very disappointed with the "are seed oils bad for you?" episode
