Lift and Shine
Welcome to The Lift & Shine Podcast. The podcast for women who are tired of starting over, tired of feeling stuck in their bodies, and ready to become the woman they know they're meant to be.
I'm your host, Coach C (Charlotte Mazur).
But before I was a coach helping women around the world lose weight and reclaim their confidence, I was a woman fighting battles nobody saw.
I struggled with alcohol addiction, an eating disorder, depression, and moments where I questioned whether life was worth living. I know what it's like to hate the woman staring back at you in the mirror. I know what it's like to numb your pain, abandon yourself, and wonder if you'll ever feel truly happy.
When I was in my twenties, my father died by suicide. His loss forced me to confront my own pain, my patterns, and the story I had been telling myself for years...that I wasn't enough.
But healing changed everything.
I left behind the life that no longer aligned with me, walked away from my career as a teacher, moved to Mexico, and rebuilt myself from the inside out.
Today, I help women around the world lose 15, 30, even 100 pounds—not just physically, but emotionally.
Because true transformation isn't about shrinking yourself.
It's about healing your relationship with food.
Releasing self-doubt.
Regulating your nervous system.
Building confidence.
And finally becoming the woman you've always been underneath the pain.
Through honest conversations about health, fitness, mindset, healing, relationships, and life's hardest moments, I'll share the lessons I've learned and the tools that can help you stop surviving and start shining.
If you've ever felt or currently feel broken, lost, unworthy, or like you've spent your whole life taking care of everyone else...
This podcast is for you.
It's time to stop abandoning yourself.
It's time to Shine.

Ep. 313 - Why You're Still Struggling to Lose Weight (What I Noticed After Returning to Canada)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the thing keeping you stuck isn't your diet?
After returning to Canada for a few days, I noticed several habits that have become so normal that most people don't even question them anymore.
From highly processed "protein" foods to chronic stress, constant rushing, and emotional spending, these everyday behaviors may be impacting your health far more than you realize.
In this episode, Coach C shares powerful insights on:
• Why simplicity is the secret to sustainable weight loss
• The problem with most protein snacks and convenience foods
• How stress affects digestion, hormones, and fat loss
• Why investing in yourself creates more happiness than buying more stuff
• Practical ways to create lasting change
If you're ready to stop chasing quick fixes and start becoming the healthiest version of yourself, this episode is for you.
