If the scale hasn’t budged and you’re wondering “What’s the point?” — this episode is for you.

Too often, we tie our worth and our success to a single number. But Kara is here to help you break free from scale obsession and finally see the progress you’ve actually been making.

Through client stories, her own insights, and a powerful redefinition of success, Kara will show you how to recognize non-scale victories, track your true progress, and feel confident now — not 10 pounds from now.

Because success isn’t measured in pounds. It’s measured in persistence, awareness, and self-trust.
