About this listen
In this special episode of the Light Up Your Metabolism podcast, I’m sharing a real coaching conversation with one of my Blood Sugar Mastery students — a woman who courageously brought her whole self to the call.
She’s seeing incredible improvements in her blood sugar, energy, and gym performance, has successfully tapered off metformin, and feels deeply aligned with how she’s eating.
But with the holidays approaching, she’s nervous.
Not about food availability — but about family opinions.
If you’ve ever felt anxious about eating differently around family, worried about being judged, or struggled with people pleasing when it comes to your health choices, this episode is for you.
In this conversation, we talk about how to:
• Navigate family gatherings when your food choices stand out
• Handle comments like “Why aren’t you eating that?” or “Just have a bite”
• Stop trying to make everyone comfortable with your healing
• Advocate for yourself without needing agreement
• Sit with discomfort instead of abandoning your needs
• Reframe diet boundaries as self-respect, not restriction
• Recognize people-pleasing and fawning patterns
• Use your health wins as confidence — not justification
• Speak kindly to yourself when comments sting
• Practice emotional regulation during triggering situations
This episode is also a beautiful glimpse into what it’s like inside Blood Sugar Mastery, where every student receives real-time, one-on-one coaching and support.
Healing your blood sugar often becomes a mirror for other areas of your life — especially boundaries, self-trust, and self-compassion.
If this conversation resonates with you and you’re ready for support, I invite you to book a discovery call or learn more about joining Blood Sugar Mastery.
