In this episode of the Tailored Coaching Method Podcast, Arielle DeYampert is joined by Katie Johnson for a powerful conversation on the difference between a physical deficit and a mental deficit—and why confusing the two is often what derails fat loss and long-term progress.

They break down what it actually means to be in a physical calorie deficit versus living in a mental state of scarcity. While a physical deficit is required for fat loss, a mental deficit can lead to frustration, obsession, burnout, and an unhealthy relationship with food. Arielle and Katie explain why mindset, gratitude, and abundance are essential tools for sustaining a deficit without self-sabotage.

This episode highlights the importance of radical honesty in health journeys, including being honest about behaviors, emotions, and expectations. The conversation also emphasizes that sustainable habits—not extremes—are what allow clients to maintain results after a deficit phase ends.

Listeners will learn how embracing discomfort is a necessary part of growth, how to shift from a scarcity mindset into abundance, and why contentment with progress—not perfection—is key for long-term success. The episode closes by reinforcing the powerful role that support systems and community play in helping individuals stay consistent, grounded, and resilient throughout their health and fitness journey.

This episode is especially valuable for anyone who feels mentally drained by dieting, struggles to maintain fat loss, or wants to build results that last without burning out.

In this episode of the Tailored Coaching Method Podcast, host Arielle DeYampert sits down with client Britt G to share their deeply personal journey with body image, dieting, and the life-changing impact of coaching.

Britt opens up about how their struggles with food and weight began at a young age, shaped by societal pressure and early exposure to body image expectations. They reflects on years of dieting, confusion around food, and the emotional weight that came with constantly trying to “fix” their body. The turning point came when Britt chose to seek support through coaching—marking the beginning of a shift not just in habits, but in mindset.

The conversation highlights the importance of building a supportive environment and how community plays a powerful role in creating consistency and accountability. Britt shares how tracking and measuring food initially felt overwhelming, but ultimately became a tool for awareness rather than restriction. Over time, they transitioned from a scarcity mindset around food to one rooted in abundance, confidence, and trust.

Arielle and Britt also discuss rediscovering the joy of cooking, enjoying food without guilt, and redefining what health truly means. Rather than focusing solely on the scale, Britt emphasizes how feeling strong, energized, and comfortable in her body became far more meaningful indicators of progress.

This episode is a reminder that transformation isn’t just about weight loss—it’s about celebrating small wins, learning from setbacks, and embracing the journey toward a healthier relationship with food, body, and self. It’s especially impactful for anyone struggling with body image, food guilt, or feeling stuck in an endless dieting cycle.
