Tired of “Eating Clean” and then Going Off the Rails? Let’s Talk Balance

Ah, balance. That magical word we all say we want, until we realize we have no idea what it actually means. Is it eating grilled chicken and broccoli five days a week so you can go wild on a cheeseboard and wine on Saturday night? (Spoiler: that’s not it.)

In this episode, I break down what real-life balance looks like, from what’s on your plate to how your meals are spaced throughout the day so you’re not eating a pile of gummy bears at 9pm.

Topics Discussed:

  • How to build a balanced meal

  • Why sauce counts (and why I’ll never touch your coffee order, promise)

  • The sneaky way “just a little” sugar adds up across the day

  • Why your weekends might be sabotaging your progress

  • How to prep for busy seasons so you’re not living off cold string cheese and regret

Balance isn’t perfection. It’s not eating perfectly Monday–Friday and then letting chaos reign. It’s structure and flexibility. And in this episode, we’ll help you find your version.
