One of the most difficult conversations I’ve ever had with a client was this: I had to tell them they were on a path to an early death if they didn’t change their life. At 160kg, they knew deep down that weight loss surgery was a good option. But there was a massive barrier holding them back—and it wasn’t the cost. They believed that getting the operation was a failure. They felt they should be able to lose the weight on their own. The fear of shame and judgment kept them stuck. But eventually, ...

The other day, I received a special voicemail from my daughter. She was bubbling with excitement, telling me how much she loves her life right now.
