After taking a break from the podcast, I’m finally back!!! In today’s episode I dive into detail about why I took a break and the chaos of the past year (good chaos, but chaos nonetheless). I missed the podcast so much and hope you all missed it too! Today we dive into lead dominos that helped me get my groove back. I also chat about how I was preparing for 2026 the past 2 weeks and what’s helped me feel aligned. We chat goals, systems to achieve goals, and girl talk along the way.I recommend reading the One Thing by Gary Keller to figure out you 1 thing this new year! It changed my life and I hope it changes yours! https://bit.ly/4q2uWPV Follow Tori:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/toristerling_/?hl=en Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@toridesimone_?lang=en YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvREnrrKuHFePQ4W6UTcgnA Newsletter: https://xotori.beehiiv.com/ 

Hi everyone!! Today I am joined with my mom to recap the gorgeous wedding of Gretchen and Max on Cape Cod this past weekend! I am so honored to have been invited to the most gorgeous and fun wedding I’ve ever been to! It was my first time on the cape in 20+ years, so going back to see one of my OG YouTube friends, alongside my OG YouTube friends, get married was so full circle and special. I am so grateful! My mom and I also dive into other topics such as her weight loss/hormone journey with GLP-1’s, our dinner homemade Italian dinner tonight, picking & choosing your battles, & our LMCMM rebrand that is in the works!

In this vulnerable and unfiltered episode, I sit down with my mom to talk about something many women go through, but few talk about openly: midlife weight gain, hormonal changes, and starting a GLP-1. After gaining 55 pounds with no major lifestyle changes and struggling with symptoms like fatigue, hot flashes, anxiety, and loss of muscle, my mom found herself at a health crossroads. We walk through the emotional and physical toll this took, her experience going off hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and what finally led her to try tirzepatide (a GLP-1 medication similar to Ozempic). This episode isn’t just about weight loss, it’s about reclaiming your life, making empowered health choices, and what happens when you start advocating for your own wellness. We also talk anxiety, alcohol, sleep, family dynamics, and yes, why my mom is already seeing mental clarity within days of her first dose. If your mom (or you!) is silently dealing with hormone chaos, frustrating weight gain, or health confusion, this episode will make you feel seen, supported, and informed. 00:00 Life updates, small talk & avocado toast inflation 04:00 My mom’s health scare & going off HRT 07:00 Symptoms spiral after stopping hormone therapy 10:00 Shocking lab results: cholesterol, blood sugar & hormone crash 12:00 The decision to start tirzepatide (Ozempic-like medication) 15:00 What happened after her first dose (mental clarity, food noise, no cravings) 18:00 My evolving opinion on Ozempic 20:00 Women’s hormones are misunderstood—here’s what we’ve learned 24:00 Monitoring with InBody scans, strength training, and muscle preservation 27:00 Our honest feelings on weight, lifestyle changes & identity 33:00 Why I might never drink alcohol again (full breakdown) 44:00 10 facts that made me rethink alcohol for good 48:00 Newsletter updates & book recs from my mom 54:00 What we’re reading this summer 56:00 Travel talk & life reflections 59:00 Wrapping up + dinner’s ready!
