Losing Weight without Losing Your Mind (formerly the More Mindful Podcast)

Welcome to the Losing Weight Without Losing Your Mind Podcast (formerly, the More Mindful Podcast) — where we make weight loss sustainable (and dare I say, enjoyable?!) by changing how you think, instead of just changing what you eat.

Hi, I'm your host is Julia Lynch— your down-to-earth double-certified macro-nutrition coach, integrative health enthusiast, and fellow recovering "starting over every Monday" girl. I get it because I've been there: obsessing over every bite, working out twice a day, and still feeling like I was failing.

Here's what changed everything: I stopped expecting overly-restrictive diets to work for me (they don't!) and I started working with my brain and body, instead of against it.

Now, I help overwhelmed, high-achieving women (you know, the ones juggling EVERYTHING, while her inner perfectionist yaps away at her all day) lose weight without making it their full-time job or giving up Friday night pizza. What’s the point of losing weight if it makes you hate your life?

Through my Rooted Method, I combine mindful eating and macro tracking with practical nutrition hacks and the mindset shifts that actually stick, so you can finally stop the mental gymnastics around food and lose weight without the drama…

Each week, we're diving into real conversations about the thoughts keeping you stuck, simple nutrition strategies that work with your actual life, and tools to help you trust yourself around food again.

Because here's the thing—you don't need another meal plan. You need to stop believing that becoming “that healthy girl” is out of reach. Once you shift your mindset to believe it IS possible, I promise you things will start falling into place. And this podcast is your gateway there.

(CLIENT STORY) How Courtney Transformed Her Health, Tackled Emotional Eating, and Lost 12 lbs in 2025

November 18, 2025 • Season 2 • Episode 13

After gaining 50 lbs in a short period of time and facing a bout of depression, Courtney struggled with where to start in her health journey.

She desired weight loss in the long run, but more than anything, she first wanted to feel so confident in her health habits and relationship to food as someone who lived a super stressful life as a business owner and had turned to emotional eating in the past.

In this conversation, Julia and Courtney talk about how little changes turned into big waves, like becoming someone who moves her body consistently, who experiences way less period cramps, and who understands how to eat with confidence (and avoid sugar cravings) - plus, how going to therapy while working with a nutrition coach unlocked even more growth.

Even though she hasn't even focused on it directly, she’s also already down nearly 12 lbs in the last few months from making these small changes over time.

Courtney’s story is for the woman who’s wondering how she’ll ever get out of the current funk she’s in, where she feels like nothing’s ever worked and she has no little time to give… she’s proof that you don’t need to feel ready to transform your life!!
