You say you want the results. So why aren’t your actions matching the outcome you’re after?

This episode is a wake-up call for anyone who feels stuck despite “doing everything right.” We’re getting to the root of what’s actually driving the disconnect between your intentions and your reality.

• Why clarity, structure, and feedback matter more than motivation
• How identity misalignment silently erodes consistency and confidence
• The neuroscience behind why you stay inspired but don’t follow through
• What learned helplessness really looks like in high-functioning women
• Practical strategies to realign your actions with your goals—even when life feels full

This is more than just discipline, it's about reclaiming agency, building evidence through action, and finally moving forward with purpose.

If you’re tired of circling the same frustrations and ready to operate from ownership instead of overwhelm then this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

Hit play. Your results are waiting on you.

Most conversations about transformation focus on what you need to add like better habits, more discipline, a new mindset. But what often gets overlooked is what you have to let go of in the process: the version of you that survived by staying small, overworking, restricting, or chasing external validation.

In this episode, Jillian and Jesse explore the lesser-known emotional side of growth... grief. Not the kind tied to tragedy, but the quiet grief that surfaces when you realize that in order to truly heal, you have to release the identity that once kept you safe.

We break down --

• Why even positive change can trigger resistance and internal conflict
• The neuroscience of identity, safety, and why your brain favors the familiar
• How to recognize when your old habits are rooted in coping, not thriving
• The three psychological phases of transformation and how to move through them without sabotaging your progress
• A practical framework for rebuilding your identity, behaviors, and nervous system from the ground up

This conversation is for the woman who’s ready to evolve, but feels the emotional weight of doing things differently. If you’ve ever wondered why healing feels uncomfortable or why part of you still clings to patterns that no longer serve you, this episode will help you make sense of it all.

You’re not losing yourself. You’re making space for who you were always meant to become!

If you’ve been tracking your macros, lifting consistently, and doing all the “right” things, but still feel like your body isn’t responding... this episode will help you understand why!

Your metabolism isn’t broken, but it is adaptive. And if you’ve spent years in a calorie deficit, dealing with high stress, poor sleep, or inconsistent recovery, your metabolism is simply responding to the signals it’s been given.

In this episode, Jess and Jill break down:

• What actually determines your metabolic rate (and why it’s not just about age)
• How dieting, stress, and low energy availability suppress metabolism
• The key differences between metabolic damage and metabolic adaptation
• What needs to change before your body starts responding again
• How to build a more efficient, flexible metabolism without extremes

If fat loss feels harder than it used to, there’s a reason. Tune in for the science, the strategy, and the real-life application!

Weight gain with no changes. Exhaustion that doesn’t improve with sleep. Constant bloating, cravings, or mood swings. You’ve been told it’s your hormones. But is that the full story?

In this episode, we’re breaking down:

• How to know when hormones are truly the problem and when they’re just the symptom
• The most common reasons women feel “off” despite clean labs or endless supplements
• Why behavior, nutrition, and lifestyle must come first before testing or protocols
• The exact foundations that need to be in place before labs will even matter
• What testing is actually useful and how to apply it with intention
• The difference between treating numbers on a lab vs supporting the person in front of you

Most hormone imbalances aren’t random. They’re a result of chronic stress, gut dysfunction, under-eating, and poor recovery. When those inputs shift, hormones shift too.

This episode is a call to stop outsourcing your results to tests, and start taking control of what you can change right now.

If you’ve ever said “I tried macros and it didn’t work,” this episode is for you!

Macros aren’t the problem... how you’re using them is! Because macros do "work". They’re literally the makeup of every food you eat. But when they’re used like another restrictive diet instead of a strategy to support your metabolism, it’s no surprise they don’t get results.

In this episode, we're breaking down:

• Why macros feel hard, confusing, or flat-out exhausting
• The biggest mistakes that sabotage fat loss even when you’re tracking
• How to actually make macros work (without obsessing over perfection)
• When macro tracking is helpful and when it’s time to take a break
• What we teach clients to make progress without losing their minds in MyFitnessPal

This isn’t about fitting your life around a set of numbers. It’s about using data to build a strategy that matches your physiology and lifestyle so you get results without all of the crazy diet rules!

If you’ve been winging it, second guessing your targets, or wondering if you’re just “not cut out” for tracking, listen to this episode. It will probably change how you view diets and food in general!

Relying on “low-cal,” “low-fat,” or “high-protein” snack foods might be sabotaging your health and fat loss goals. These foods often lack real nutrients, leave you feeling unsatisfied, and can drive overeating.

We’re breaking down:

• Why your 100-cal snacks are making you hungrier, not leaner
• How low-cal, low-fat, and “high-protein” foods trick you into eating more
• The hidden reason you can’t stop thinking about food
• How processed diet foods mess with your metabolism and cravings

If you’re tired of the cycle of restriction, cravings, and frustration, it’s time to stop chasing the lowest calorie number and start fueling your body the right way.

Most women aren’t failing their diets, their diets are failing them! If fat loss feels like a constant struggle, chances are you’re making at least one of these mistakes. And no, it’s not because you need to “try harder” or “eat less.” It’s because the strategies you’ve been fed (literally) are setting you up for metabolic chaos, unnecessary stress, and zero long-term results.

In this episode, we’re calling out the biggest fat loss mistakes and what to do instead:

• Not eating enough protein (because losing weight ≠ losing fat)
• Thinking more cardio = more fat loss
• Obsessing over the scale instead of tracking real progress
• Changing things up the second the scale stalls
• Setting calorie and protein goals… but not actually hitting them
• Focusing on outcomes instead of what you can actually control
• Dieting with no exit plan (aka the fastest way to regain everything you lost)

If you’re done with restrictive, ineffective nonsense and want to lose fat in a way that actually works, this episode is a must-listen!

In this episode of Reality Check with Jess and Jill, we are talking REVERSE DIETING! This is one of the most powerful tools for fixing your metabolism, getting out of chronic dieting mode, and finally eating more while maintaining (or even losing) body fat... but most people don’t do it right.

If you’ve ever tried to eat more based on the Internet's advice but felt like it backfired, this episode is for you!

We cover:

• The biggest mistakes keeping you stuck in a frustrating cycle of on-again, off-again dieting, second guessing the scale, & never fully optimizing your metabolism
• The difference between actually getting to maintenance vs. just eating slightly more
• Why stopping your reverse too early keeps you stuck in metabolic limbo
• The role of protein and strength training in making those extra calories work for you
• Why tracking biofeedback matters more than obsessing over the scale
• The mistake of eating inconsistently and sending your metabolism mixed signals
• How to avoid turning a reverse diet into a free-for-all that leads to unnecessary fat gain

Reverse dieting only works if you do it right. That means getting to actual maintenance, training properly, eating enough protein, and staying consistent. If you try to half-ass it, you’ll just end up in a cycle of frustration where your metabolism never truly adapts.

This episode is a CAN NOT miss - check it out!
