175: The Mistake Some People Make on a GLP-1
Megan explains why using a GLP-1 as another diet misses a critical part of lasting weight loss. Medication can help regulate appetite and make weight loss easier, but it doesn't automatically teach you how to eat well, build healthy habits, or maintain your results. The goal isn't just to lose weight. It's to build a healthy lifestyle that supports your health and helps you sustain your results. You'll learn: • Why GLP-1 medications are a tool, not a lifestyle • The mistake some women make when using medication for weight loss • Why losing weight and becoming healthier aren't the same thing • The foundational habits you still need to build while taking a GLP-1 • Why protein, fiber, strength training, and daily movement matter • How to use the opportunity medication provides to develop sustainable lifestyle habits • Why weight loss without a lifestyle plan can leave you struggling to maintain your results • What to focus on beyond the number on the scale, whether you're taking a GLP-1 or not Resources: Grab the 5 Steps To Lasting Weight Loss FREE CLASS for Women 35+ Schedule a Free Assessment Call Want me to answer your questions on my next Q&A episode?

174: Why Your Weight Loss Journey Shouldn't Start with Weight Loss
The goal isn't to create a temporary version of yourself who can lose weight. In this episode, Megan explains why lasting weight loss doesn't start with a calorie deficit.

You'll learn: • Why you shouldn't start your weight loss journey with weight loss • The difference between losing weight and living a healthy lifestyle • Why a calorie deficit is a tool, not a lifestyle • The habits and skills you need to build before and during weight loss • Why losing weight doesn't automatically teach you how to maintain it • Why the goal isn't to become better at dieting, but to become someone who doesn't need to constantly diet Resources: Grab the 5 Steps To Lasting Weight Loss FREE CLASS for Women 35+ Schedule a Free Assessment Call Want me to answer your questions on my next Q&A episode?

169: You Know What to Do to Lose Weight, But Still Aren't Doing It
In this episode, Megan explains why the struggle isn't about a lack of discipline or motivation instead how your brain builds habits.

The goal isn't to be perfect. The goal is to keep showing up long enough for healthy habits to become your new normal.
