Have you ever wondered why meal plans never seem to stick — no matter how motivated you are in the beginning? If you’ve tried everything from keto to Whole30 to “clean eating,” and still feel stuck, you’re not alone.

In this episode, I share the real reason why meal plans don’t work long-term: they focus only on food and ignore the most important piece — your identity and mindset. Lasting nutrition change isn’t about willpower or another set of recipes. It’s about shifting the way you see yourself and your relationship with food, and pairing that with simple, science-based nutrition foundations that actually support your body in midlife.

You’ll learn:

Why meal plans fail women over and over again
How identity and mindset quietly drive your food choices (and keep you stuck)
The “Be → Do → Have” framework that flips traditional nutrition models on their head
Why combining mindset + metabolism-focused nutrition is the key to change that lasts

If you’re ready to stop starting over every Monday and finally feel confident in your nutrition, this episode is for you.
