EPISODE 169: Client Interview with Melissa Parinello

The Three Pillars of Successful Weight Loss workshop is happening today! Register here.

In this episode, co-coach Steph Miramontes joins me in having the pleasure of interviewing client two-time client, Melissa Parinello.

Melissa joined the Friends with Benefits (now Unstuffed) group coaching program in 2020 — focused on losing weight

In 2022 she came back for another round after realizing that the way she was caring for herself wasn't truly self-care. She gets vulnerable when she shares how a major life change put her desire to change front and center.

In this week's episode, Melissa shares:

The biggest challenges she experienced throughout the program and how she's been able to learn and execute physiological tools to stay consistent
How she uses her commitment to losing weight through habit change to keep showing up, even when it's hard
Why she made her participation in the body image work non-negotiable and how she's changed how she feels as a result
What changing her relationship with food and her body has taught her about what she is no longer willing to tolerate, even from herself
Melissa's BEST piece of advice for those who fear they'll gain weight if they stop calorie counting and focus on weight loss through behavior change

Melissa's story inspires me and I couldn't be more proud of her success. I know it will inspire you too!

This was an awesome client interview and I'm so excited to share it with you! I hope you dig in and find it helpful.
