Born This Weigh
Huge Announcement, Metabolizing Joy & Finding Your People
🎉 Welcome back to Born This Weigh!
We’re Kari and Lisa — two moms, 150+ pounds lighter, still untangling what it means to love ourselves in a world that never missed a chance to body-shame us.
We've launched on Patreon. Join The Club! https://www.patreon.com/cw/BornThisWeighPod
This week’s episode dives into:
✨ Metabolizing Joy — Kari’s fresh off a soul-filling weekend in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and we unpack what it feels like to be surrounded by people who light you up, want you to win, and make life feel expansive again.
🤝 Adult Friendships & Real Community — why finding your people as an adult is so hard, how abundance mindset changes the way you connect, and why community hits different when you’re doing deep work like weight loss, healing, and identity shifts.
🧠 Gratitude That Actually Works — not the performative “write three things” version, but the kind of gratitude practice that rewires your brain, softens food noise, and helps you stop auditioning for belonging.
🚨 Huge Announcement — we officially launched the Born This Weigh Patreon. Bonus content, behind-the-scenes chaos, deeper dives that are too spicy for the main feed, and some very cute downloads for listeners who want more of us.
If you’ve ever felt lonely in transformation, struggled to find people who get this season of your life, or realized you’ve been auditioning for connection instead of receiving it — this one’s for you.
✨ Hit follow so you don’t miss new episodes every week.
