Your Relationships Are Keeping You Fat – a Ms. New Booty Fitness Podcast
A Ms. New Booty Fitness Podcast
If you’ve struggled with sustainable weight loss, staying consistent in fitness, or feeling motivated long enough to see results — this podcast will change how you understand your body.
Your Relationships Are Keeping You Fat is a women’s health and sustainable fat loss podcast focused on nervous system regulation, hormone balance, emotional eating, burnout recovery, and building adherence that lasts.
Hosted by National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach Darla, this show unpacks the psychology and neuroscience behind why consistency feels fragile — and how to build sustainable fitness habits without extreme dieting or all-or-nothing cycles.
Inside each episode, we explore:
• Sustainable weight loss for women
• Nervous system regulation and stress reduction
• Hormone health and cycle awareness
• Emotional eating and food trust
• Burnout and hustle culture
• Identity-based habit formation
• Adherence over motivation
• Breaking restart cycles
• Building consistency in real life
Because fat loss isn’t about willpower. It’s about safety.
If you’re a high-achieving woman who’s tired of restarting and ready to build sustainable fitness, regulated consistency, and long-term health — you’re in the right place.
New episodes every Monday.
