Ever feel like one unexpected curveball—like a new doctor’s food rules or a surprise trigger—sends you spiraling straight off track with food or body image?

In this episode, Brittany tackles the all-too-familiar frustration of hitting a setback just when you thought you were making progress. Whether it’s a triggering comment, a life change, or just a moment of “Ugh, here we go again,” she breaks down why these bumps in the road aren’t failures… but opportunities in disguise.

You’ll learn a fresh way to look at your setbacks—like secret ingredients in your food freedom recipe, and hear a powerful story from a client who thought she had lost all her progress.  Plus get a sneak peek into how diet culture sneaks in through well-meaning advice. 

If you’ve ever felt like giving up or wondered if your progress “counts” after a step back, this episode will shift your mindset in all the best ways.

A few things you can expect to hear in this episode include…

🍳 A recipe analogy that will totally change the way you see setbacks

🚪 What a home security system can teach you about your point of vulnerability

📊 The secret to gathering data from your struggles (without judgment)

🧠 Why action—even messy action—brings more clarity than overthinking ever will

🎯 The “barrier breakdown” strategy Brittany uses with her private clients to preemptively prepare for setbacks
