About this listen

In this inspiring episode, Sandra talks with 70-year-old Mary, whose story proves that age and chronic illness don't have to hold you back. After battling ME for nearly a decade and struggling with weight gain, Mary found a path to health, confidence, and control through Slimpod. This conversation is packed with honesty, encouragement, and powerful mindset shifts.

We discuss:

  • Mary’s experience living with ME for nine years and how it impacted her weight and lifestyle

  • Why traditional approaches (supplements, diets, exercise) only offered temporary relief

  • How a food intolerance test unexpectedly led to a turning point in her recovery

  • Mary's emotional connection to food, desserts — and how Slimpod changed her thinking

  • The difference between Slimpod and hypnosis — and why it worked for Mary

  • How Mary regained control over her portion sizes, comfort eating, and full signals

  • The mindset shifts that helped her say “no” to dessert — for the first time ever!

  • Life a year later: dancing five nights a week, walking her dog, and feeling energized

  • How she manages her ME now with awareness, boundaries, and self-kindness

  • Why she believes Slimpod’s approach is so powerful — and why she recommends it to others.
