Why the Scale Isn’t Your Enemy (But Also Isn’t Everything)

Laini Taylor

If you’ve ever stepped on the scale and let that number ruin your whole day… this episode is for you.

Today we’re talking all things scale mindset — why it causes so much stress, what it actually reflects (and doesn’t), and how to stop letting it dictate your worth, your progress, or your mood. I’m breaking down where our fear of the scale really comes from, how I healed my relationship with it, and how to shift into a mindset that uses it as data, not judgment.

We’ll talk about body composition, hormonal fluctuations, better ways to track progress, and the tough-love truth: sometimes we avoid the scale not because it’s toxic — but because it’s confronting.

This one’s real, empowering, and a little freeing.

Let’s take the power back. 💪
