Hi Brooke
I don’t really have a question but wanted to give you an update on how I am doing on my first 12 days in your program. And mostly I wanted to thank you for making me change my mind about so many things about my life in such a short amount of time. I’m sure you get these emails all the time but for me, these last 12 days have been very transformative and I wanted to express my gratitude.

I’ve been a long time listener of the podcast, finding the topics all helpful, relevant and actionable and I really wanted to be able to take the in-person coaching sessions but work, family obligations and costs were always in the way.

At the end of September, I went ahead and spent the monthly fee to join Scholars because I really wanted to modify my eating, having gained 20 pounds over the last year. At the end of September I found myself buffering with so many things, food, wine and spending without a specific plan to get myself out of those habits. I’ll admit that the cost of the program provided the commitment. But the money I spent was enough to get me to clean my closets last week, sending over 15 bags of unworn clothes to the Goodwill. More importantly, the coaching session and videos on over-eating open the way to intermittent fasting, bulletproof coffee and a 5 lbs weight loss for me. I feel great and even though I asked you about ketchup on my 3rd day, I think I can do without it now. Inadvertently, I had a 20 hour fast and did not feel nauseous, queasy or hungry the entire time! I have more energy and I feel like I can do anything.

I didn’t want to do the Thought Downloads but I found that all my fears that were in my head did not seem so scary once I wrote them down. I surprise myself at every turn in this program! So I am all-in, you have encouraged me to think big. Now I have crazy ideas of potentially weighing 130lbs, writing a novel, etc. I think I am unstoppable. Thank you for guiding and showing me the way. And most especially for letting me surprise myself!

With gratitude and respect,
Mimi Wan
