Why Gratitude Is the Missing Piece in Your Weight Loss Journey

Send us a text

In this episode of Talking Sh*t, Jana drops the perfection, the pressure, and the “not enough” mindset to give you a raw, grounded ramble on the one thing almost every woman overlooks in her health journey: gratitude — the active, mindset-shifting kind that actually changes the way you lose weight, build consistency, and feel at home in your body.

Drawing from years of coaching and her own background growing up in a competitive sports family, Jana unpacks the hidden reason so many women quit on themselves: not because the diet stops working… but because they stop feeling like it’s working. This episode flips that entirely. You’ll learn why one win — even the tiniest one — is enough to keep you in the game, and why dismissing your progress is the real sabotage.

She gets real about:
 💭 Why you never feel “good enough” in your progress — and how gratitude rewires your brain to finally register success
 🔥 How minimizing your wins fuels inconsistency, stress, and sabotage
 ✨ Why “one point wins the game” is the metaphor that will change how you see weight loss forever

If you’ve ever told yourself “I should be further,” “It’s not enough,” or “I’ll start again Monday,” this episode is your reset button. Jana shows you that consistency doesn’t come from control, punishment, or perfection — it comes from celebrating the small wins that actually count.

This is your reminder:
 Health doesn’t become sustainable because you hustle harder.
 It becomes sustainable when you finally see — and honor — the progress you’re already making.

Tune in for an episode that will leave you feeling lighter, grounded, and ready to keep scoring those points, one small win at a time.
