Your “Ideal Weight” Explained | MMP Ep. 286

About this episode

This episode challenges the concept of an 'ideal weight' and explores its impact on women's confidence and daily life.

☎️ Book Your COMPLEMENTARY CONSULTATION and CALORIE CALCULATION Call: ⁠https://calendly.com/d/2p8-mxx-dgf/free-consultation-call-zoom⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Most women have a number in their head they’re chasing. In this episode, we challenge the idea of an “ideal weight” and unpack why that number often holds far more power over your confidence, decisions, and daily peace than you realize. This conversation isn’t about math, calorie rules, or another plan to follow. It’s about the beliefs we’ve been taught to measure ourselves by — and what it’s costing us to keep chasing them. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by the scale, conflicted about your body, or stuck between wanting results and wanting a life you can actually enjoy… this episode will meet you right there. Listen before you step on the scale again. 📲 Connect With Stephanie: Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/vitalityoet.stephanie⁠ Email: ⁠stephanie@vitalityoet.com⁠ All Resources: ⁠https://stan.store/vitalityoetstephanie⁠
