Wednesday, 14 January, 2026
If you’ve ever felt like your body is fighting you when it comes to weight loss, this episode is for you.So many women are doing “all the right things” — eating less, exercising more, following the plans — and still not seeing results. In this episode, Hannah breaks down why weight loss stalls when the body feels stressed, and what your body actually needs in order to let weight go.This conversation reframes weight loss through a physiological safety lens, especially for women navigating stress, hormone changes, or years of dieting.Why willpower and discipline are not the missing pieces in weight lossHow chronic stress and cortisol keep the body in fat-storage modeWhat it really means for the body to feel safe enough to lose weightWhy eating less and pushing harder often backfires for womenThe role of blood sugar stability and insulin in fat lossHow the nervous system directly impacts metabolismWhat the body needs to release weight without punishment or extremesWeight loss isn’t something you force —it’s something your body allows when it feels nourished, regulated, and supported.Your body isn’t broken.To join our three week Weight Loss Challenge, go here.
