Show Notes
I help people stop hiding and start showing up — for their health, their goals, and themselves. No fluff. No quick fixes. Just honest conversations about what's actually keeping you stuck.
This channel is for anyone who's ever started over on a Monday, kept their goals secret in case they failed, or felt like they were somehow broken for not being able to just stick to it. You're not broken. You're just afraid of being seen trying.
Let's talk about that. Most people don't have a self sabotage problem. They have a fear of being seen trying. I'm here to call that out — and help you do something about it

At 53, after 30 years of dieting, Marie said, "I don't know who I am if I'm not trying to lose weight." In this episode, Shane Walsh explains how yo-yo dieting hardens into an identity, why the shame around emotional eating is the real problem and not the eating itself, and how to question the stories you've been carrying. You'll hear Marie's story of tracing each label back to where it came from, rewriting it, and finally closing the chapter.

Rachel spent 26 years using self-criticism as her motivation, and she was terrified that without it she'd give up. In this episode, Shane Walsh unpacks the Shame-Sabotage Loop, the cycle where body shame triggers a diet, a slip, more shame, and a binge. He explains why compassion isn't complacency, and why body neutrality is a realistic middle ground between hating and loving your body. You'll hear Rachel's story, and two simple daily practices you can try today: the Best Friend Test, and unfollowing and curating what you see online.
Tara weighed herself every morning for five years, and most of the swings she cried over turned out to be water.

Sarah was perfect Monday to Friday and in total rebellion on the weekend, and she did it for over a decade. In this episode, Shane Walsh explains all-or-nothing thinking, shows the eight-week maths that makes the case for 80/20 over perfection, and introduces "imperfect action" as the middle ground where lasting change lives.

Annemarie yo-yo dieted for 17 years, and the foods she "snapped" on were always the ones she'd banned. In this episode, Shane Walsh explains the deprivation-binge cycle, why labelling foods "good" and "bad" keeps you stuck, and the Permission Paradox: why giving yourself full permission to eat all foods can reduce overeating.
