Ever feel that gut-punch of comparison while scrolling social media? In this episode, I share how coaching helped me heal decades of dieting, emotional eating, and shame, and how I still sometimes fall into the “compare and despair” trap. A surprising moment at a marching band competition reminded me that comparison truly steals our joy. Tune in to learn how to pause the spiral and choose a new story rooted in peace, pride, and self-trust.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your body, frustrated that weight won’t budge no matter what you do, you’re not alone. In this episode, I explore why midlife weight challenges are often about more than willpower or food, diving into how shifting hormones, chronic stress, and even political and cultural pressures can make your body hold onto weight as a form of protection. We’ll cover how cortisol and nervous system overload impact weight loss, why reframing weight as a messenger rather than an enemy can transform your relationship with your body, and simple practices to regulate stress and feel safer in your body. Whether you’re navigating perimenopause, menopause, or simply feeling “stuck,” this conversation offers tools to release shame, reclaim trust, and move toward true freedom in your body.

So much of our struggle with food, weight, and body image begins with one story: I can’t. I can’t stop eating at night. I can’t trust myself with certain foods. I can’t lose the weight. In this episode of Fat2Fierce® The Confidence Chronicles, I unpack where “I can’t” comes from, why the diet industry profits from your self-doubt, and what can shift when you start believing I can.

Sometimes emotional eating isn’t really about the food at all. In this episode of Fat2Fierce® The Confidence Chronicles, I share a personal story about craving frosting during a heavy week and what it taught me about the power of pause, awareness, and environment. We dive into how constant news and social media overload can trigger emotional eating, why none of your eating habits are “bad,” and how small shifts like noticing your urges, protecting your energy, and adding moments of joy can help you make conscious choices with food. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or drained, this episode gives practical insights and encouragement to reclaim your power with food and your environment.

Have you ever wondered why sometimes you eat past the point of being full, other times you eat to cope, and sometimes it feels like you can’t stop at all?

In this episode of Fat2Fierce® The Confidence Chronicles, I’m breaking down three common eating habits: overeating, emotional eating, and binge eating, and why it’s so important to understand the difference.

I’ll share parts of my own story, from “Thanksgiving stuffed” meals to finally breaking the cycle of binge eating. You’ll learn how each pattern shows up, how to recognize it in yourself, and simple steps you can take to begin shifting toward a healthier, more peaceful relationship with food.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in eating habits you don’t understand, this episode will remind you that you’re not alone and that change is possible.

In this episode of Fat2Fierce® The Confidence Chronicles, I’m sharing what it feels like to step into this season of life with changes in my body, grey hair, and turning 50, and how I’m learning to embrace it all with self-compassion and curiosity.

I share seven lessons from this chapter, including celebrating pivots without punishment, feeling proud of your body, and seeing aging as a true gift. If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated, or self-critical during life’s transitions, this episode is a reminder that you are not broken—you are evolving.

What do you do when motivation dries up?

In this episode of Fat2Fierce® The Confidence Chronicles, I talk about the myth of constant motivation and why it isn’t what keeps you moving forward. I’ll share the habits, routines, and “default choices” that help me stay consistent, plus two recent stories and how I chose not to give up.

This conversation is all about building self-trust and persistence, showing yourself that you don’t quit even when it’s hard. Because motivation comes and goes, but consistency is what creates lasting change.

🎧 Listen in, and if you’re ready to stop relying on motivation and start building self-trust with food and your body, book a free connection call with me.

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about my recent journey through menopause, the discovery of high insulin, and what it all means for my body and my health. For months, I carried the weight of frustration (pun intended), doing all the “right” things yet seeing no change. Getting some answers has shifted things for me. I now have a better understanding of what’s happening, which feels empowering.

I’ll share why I see menopause as a milestone worth celebrating, how I’m reframing what my body is asking of me, and why compassion and curiosity matter more than willpower. If you’ve ever felt confused by your body or stuck in a cycle of frustration, this conversation is for you.

And by the way... I recorded this while in a bit of a funk. Because sometimes, the most meaningful conversations come from our real, unpolished moments.

Last year, I gained 20 pounds. This year? The scale hasn’t budged despite all the effort, including giving up refined sugar for an entire month. It's frustrating, and I’m not going to sugarcoat that (pun intended). But instead of letting the frustration win, I’ve been shifting my perspective and looking for the wins that don’t show up on the scale. In this episode, I’m sharing my own story and a client’s story of hitting a plateau and refusing to give up. You’ll hear why maintenance can be a win, how care beats shame every time, and why the stories we tell ourselves are the fuel that keeps us going. If you’ve ever wanted to quit when the scale won’t move, this episode is your reminder: you’re not alone, you’re not failing, and your persistence is worth more than the number.

In this final part of the series, I’m talking about what it means to feel free in your body, especially when diet culture and fatphobia have made that feel impossible. I’ll share how this work helped me stop comparing myself to other women, what shifted the day I wore a swimsuit in public for the first time as a mom, and a moment with my daughter in the grocery store that still sticks with me. If you’ve ever wondered whether this kind of freedom is possible for you, I want you to know: it doesn’t start after you've lost the weight. It starts the moment you stop fighting yourself.

If you’ve ever felt like you should know what to do around food but still end up overeating, you’re in good company. In part two of this three-part series, we’re delving into what it truly means to rebuild self-trust after years of strict food rules, disregarding hunger cues, and feeling disconnected from your body. We'll explore why trust feels so out of reach (especially after decades of dieting), what self-trust actually looks like in everyday life, and how to start building it gently through small, consistent promises to yourself. This episode is full of stories, practical insights, and compassionate reminders to help you stop outsourcing your power and start coming home to yourself.

Struggling to “just stop” overeating? It’s not a lack of willpower. In this first episode of a powerful 3-part series, we break down what the overeating cycle looks like, why it keeps repeating, and what truly disrupts it. You’ll hear real client stories, learn how to recognize emotional, physical, and mental triggers, and explore tools that help you pause, get curious, and make conscious, self-honoring choices without shame or restriction. Peace with food isn’t about more control. It’s about clarity, compassion, and coming back home to yourself. If you’re ready to shift from autopilot to awareness and start reclaiming your power around food, this episode is for you.

If you’ve been carrying the invisible weight of overeating, self-doubt, and feeling disconnected from your body, this episode is for you. We're not talking about another plan or fix from the outside; we're shifting the lens entirely.

In this conversation, I’m inviting you to look inward. To explore what it means to break the cycles, rebuild self-trust, and feel truly free in your body, from the inside out. Because the struggle doesn’t just show up at mealtime, it affects how you move through your day, how you feel about yourself, and how you live your life.

By the end of this episode, I hope you feel lighter, more empowered, and more in charge than when you pressed play.

In this episode, I’m opening up about something I see more and more in my coaching: the gap between losing weight and feeling at peace with food and your body. These new weight loss tools are changing lives—and I think that’s amazing. But they don’t fix everything. If you’re still struggling with cravings, emotional eating, body image, or that nagging fear that the weight will come back... you’re not alone. I’ll share what these tools don’t address, and what you can do to feel truly confident and grounded, no matter where you are in your journey. Because peace isn’t just about the number on the scale... and you deserve the whole picture.

In this episode of Fat2Fierce: The Confidence Chronicles, I’m walking you through the pause, step by step. This isn’t about willpower or rules—it’s about reconnecting with yourself in the moment a craving strikes.

Whether you’re stress eating, snacking out of habit, or feeling like food has all the power, this practice helps you check in instead of checking out. You’ll learn how to interrupt autopilot eating with simple, grounded steps, shift from shame to curiosity around cravings, and build self-trust—one pause at a time.

This is the tool that changed everything for me, and it’s one you can return to again and again.

Summer vacations, BBQs, and ice cream don’t have to derail your relationship with food. In this episode, I’m breaking down 5 practical (and yes, sometimes tedious!) steps to help you stay mindful and connected with your body—whether you’re at a cookout, on a road trip, or just navigating a busy season. We’ll talk about mindful and intuitive eating, how to notice your hunger cues, why plating your food matters, and how to make powerful choices without guilt or restriction. This is your summer survival guide to eating with awareness, satisfaction, and self-trust.

Ever find yourself in front of the fridge or drive-thru without even knowing why? In this episode, I introduce my brand-new free guide: The Emotional Eating Trigger Decoder. I’ll walk you through exactly how to use it, why it works, and how it helped me shift from decades of emotional eating to becoming someone who eats with intention and ease. If food has ever felt like it’s in the driver’s seat of your life, this one’s for you. Grab your guide at amyenglishcc.com and follow along with this episode—you’ll learn how to identify your emotional triggers, practice the pause, and make empowered choices (without guilt, shame, or rigid rules).

We’ve been told confidence comes from the outside—how we look, how we’re perceived, how “put together” we seem. But what if it runs deeper than that? In this episode of Fat2Fierce®: The Confidence Chronicles, we’re redefining confidence from the inside out. I’m sharing two deeply personal stories that taught me what real, rooted confidence feels like—the kind that doesn’t need applause. The kind that’s quiet, steady, and unshakable. The kind that whispers, “I trust myself,” even when the mirror tells a different story. We’ll talk about the difference between surface-level confidence and the grounded kind, how to spot the line between confidence and arrogance, the link between confidence and empowerment, and a simple but powerful mantra to return to when self-doubt creeps in. If you’ve ever waited to feel “ready” before showing up as yourself, this episode will shift something. It’s time to stop chasing confidence—and start reclaiming it from within.

Feeling out of control with food? Like cravings are calling the shots and you're just along for the ride? You're not alone, and you’re not powerless. In this episode, I’m sharing five doable, encouraging steps you can take today to start shifting that dynamic. These are the exact tools I used to quiet food noise and reconnect with my body—no shame, no restriction, no “perfect” required. Whether you’re new to this work, looking for a reset, or currently taking weight loss medication like GLP-1, this episode will help you build the inner trust and awareness to quiet food noise from the inside out. Grab a pen, get comfy, and let’s take your power back—one bite-sized step at a time.

Ever find yourself cheering others on while quietly wondering why you're not making the same kind of progress? You're not alone. In this episode, we're diving into the comparison trap—especially when it comes to weight, body image, and healing. I share my own experience with weight gain, slow progress, and the very real frustration of feeling stuck while it seems like everyone else is racing ahead. You'll learn why someone else’s win doesn’t mean your failure, how to stop using success stories against yourself, what a “highlight reel” really is (and why you need your own), and a simple exercise to help you reconnect with your own wins. This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re falling behind. (Spoiler: You’re not. You’re just on your path.)

Tired of feeling like exercise is just punishment for what you ate or a chore to earn your next meal? You’re not alone. For years, I had a transactional relationship with movement—I worked out to burn calories, shrink my body, or try to be “good.” It left me frustrated, disconnected, and dreading workouts. In this episode, I’m sharing how I completely redefined my relationship with exercise—and why separating movement from weight loss changed everything. We’ll talk about breaking free from toxic fitness culture, rediscovering joy in movement, and creating a routine that actually feels good. If you’re craving a more empowering, sustainable approach to moving your body, this episode is for you. Let’s take your power back—one movement at a time.

Food used to consume my thoughts—cravings, guilt, planning, obsessing. You name it, I felt it. In this episode, I share how I quieted the food noise without medication and reclaimed my power around eating. I walk you through five game-changing tools that helped me get there, from practicing the pause to shifting my thoughts about food, my body, and satisfaction. And to be clear—this isn’t an anti-medication stance. It’s about knowing you have options. Whether you’re on a medication journey or not, this episode offers grounded, real-world tools to help you find more peace with food—and feel more connected to yourself.

One of the reasons I love coaching so much is because of the deep, transformational work we get to do—not just around what we’re eating, but why. In this episode, I’m sharing some stories about emotional eating and the “go-to” foods we often reach for when feeling stressed, sad, mad, or even excited. For me, it was buttercream icing. For one of my clients, it was peanut butter. We discovered those foods weren’t random—they were emotionally charged and tied to memories of comfort, love, and belonging. I’ll walk you through why this awareness matters, how it can help you reclaim your power around food, and why you don’t have to give up your comfort foods—you just get to enjoy them on your terms. Bring a pen and your favorite drink—we’re going there today.

In this vulnerable and powerful episode, I talk openly about my recent weight gain—and the wave of old stories it brought with it. Stories like “I’ve failed,” “There’s something wrong with me,” and “I need to fix this.” Even as an Emotional Eating Coach, I’m not immune to these thoughts—especially in perimenopause and after decades of dieting. But this time, I’m choosing a different path. No quick fixes. No shame spirals. Just curiosity, compassion, and support. If you’ve ever felt like your progress has stalled or that you’re somehow “back at square one,” this episode is a reminder that you’re not starting over—you’re going deeper.

Ever feel like you’re stuck in a food guilt Groundhog Day where every weekend ends with “Ugh, I’ll just start again on Monday”? For years, I lived in that cycle: restrict, rebel, regret, repeat. Mondays felt like a reset, but they just dragged me deeper into the shame spiral. In this episode, we’re calling out the toxic patterns that keep you chasing food perfection and unpacking the real reason the “fresh start” mindset keeps backfiring. We’ll explore how diet culture fuels the all-or-nothing thinking, how guilt feeds emotional eating, and what it looks like to reclaim your power—with food, with your body, and with how you talk to yourself. If you’ve ever felt like you had to earn your worth back after a weekend of “messing up,” this episode is your wake-up call. Because the path to peace doesn’t begin on Monday—it begins when you choose compassion over control, and love over guilt.

In this episode of Fat2Fierce®: The Confidence Chronicles, we’re digging into the real weight so many of us carry—and it’s not on the scale. It’s in our thoughts. That quiet voice saying, “I’ll never figure this out” or “Something must be wrong with me” can do more damage than any binge or skipped workout. I’m breaking down how these thought patterns form, how they keep us stuck, and how to start shifting them—one small, truthful thought at a time. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still not making progress, this one’s for you. Because sometimes, the heaviest thing we need to lose is the story we keep telling ourselves.

In this episode, I’m sharing how I handle a bad day in real time. I woke up feeling awful—physically, mentally, and emotionally—after eating too much sugar and salt the night before.

In this episode, I talk about what led to this rough morning, how I chose to handle it (without making it worse), and some practical things you can do when you’re having a bad day. Because let’s be honest—we all have them. And it’s not about being perfect; it’s about showing up for yourself, one choice at a time.

In this episode of Fat2Fierce® The Confidence Chronicles, I’m sharing what’s been on my heart—our society’s obsession with weight as the ultimate measure of health. After decades of dieting, I know how easy it is to get swept up in the messaging that ties our worth to the scale. Even as a coach, I recently caught myself falling into that trap. Join me as I unpack the toxic diet culture that shapes our beliefs, share my personal struggles with weight loss pressure, and offer powerful mindset shifts to help you redefine health on your terms.

Plus, I’ll walk you through simple but powerful questions to help you pause, check in, and take back control—without guilt or shame.
