Feel Better. Live Free. | Healthy Weight Loss & Wellness for Midlife Women
Feel Better. Live Free. with Ruth Soukup is the revolutionary health & wellness podcast brought to you by Thinlicious®. It's a show dedicated to helping midlife women find lasting health & sustainable weight loss by healing our bodies from the inside out, while questioning the outdated mainstream narratives surrounding health and weight loss that haven't worked.
Our mission is to help you the freedom to look and feel your best. The freedom to NOT be controlled by food addictions ever again. And the freedom to confidently pursue all your big goals and dreams because your health and weight issues are no longer holding you back.
Each week we’ll discuss what it means to live your best life as a woman in your 40’s, 50’s, and beyond, talking openly and honestly about the highs and lows of weight loss, wellness, cultivating a healthy mindset, and pretty much everything in between.
We'll also speak with leading health experts on everything from thyroid and cortisol health to hormonal balance and menopause to healing your gut.
It’s a place where you'll discover actionable strategies for losing weight and getting healthy, unconventional health breakthroughs that no one else is talking about, and the powerful mindset shifts you’ll need to find lifelong wellness and true happiness (with a whole lot of tough love along the way.)

The Announcement We've Been Waiting to Make (And Why It's Bigger Than You Think)

If you've been wondering where we've been — this episode is your answer. And trust us, it was worth the wait.
Today, Ruth Soukup is joined by someone you may already know and love from inside the Thinlicious community: Lisa Joy Thompson. She's been here since day one — literally the very first coach in the TAS program — and today we're making it official. Lisa is now the majority owner of Thinlicious, and this podcast has a new home with her at the helm.
But before we get to the big news, we're taking you back to the beginning. Because the story of how this happened isn't just a business announcement. It's a God thing. And you need to hear it from the start.
In this episode, Ruth and Lisa share:
- How Ruth's decade-long yo-yo diet struggle led her to finally ask the right question — and lose 40 pounds in six months by ditching everything she'd been told about weight loss
- Lisa's parallel journey: diagnosed with autoimmune disease in her teens and twenties, hitting 280 pounds at 40, and eventually losing over 100 pounds (and keeping it off for eight years) by eating the same way TAS is built on
- The Christmas Eve party conversation that started it all — and why Ruth's first answer when asked "who would you sell Thinlicious to?" was Lisa, without hesitation
- What this transition actually means for you as a member of this community — and why the best of Thinlicious is still ahead
- What's coming next: more coaching, more community, and more of what has always made this program work
This isn't goodbye. It's the beginning of something even bigger. Ruth isn't disappearing — she's cheering Lisa on as her partner and biggest fan. And Lisa? She's been living this mission for years. She just gets to lead it now.
If you're a woman over 40 who's tired of feeling sick, exhausted, and like your body has stopped cooperating — you're in the right place. The Feel Better, Live Free podcast is back on a regular schedule, and we cannot wait to show you what's coming.
