Hey Reader, If you have a desk job and fat loss feels harder than it should — I want to offer you a reframe. The answer isn’t more workouts or cutting out carbs. I know that’s not what the fitness industry tells you. But here’s what’s actually happening: You sit for 8–9 hours a day. Your non-exercise activity — the walking, the fidgeting, the movement that happens just by living — is at rock bottom. Your body has adapted to being still. Then you go to the gym for 45–60 minutes and work really hard. And you wonder why the scale isn’t moving. It’s not a willpower problem. It’s a math problem. A single intense workout doesn’t offset a sedentary baseline. What actually moves the needle for desk job women is increasing your total daily movement — not just your workout intensity. This looks like: None of this is glamorous. None of it looks like a workout. But this is the stuff that compounds when your structured exercise can’t. More effort in the gym won’t fix a broken baseline outside of it. Structure will. 🚶🏽♀️ -Sanjana |

Reader, I've got some tea for you... Something happened last week that I’m still thinking about. I applied to be a vendor at a local wellness event.

My messaging was “too focused on fat loss.” I sat with that for a minute. Because on one hand, I get it. The wellness industry right now is in this weird moment where fat loss has become almost a dirty phrase —...
hey Reader! My business coach challenged me to talk to 5 women this week for free — so here we are lol 🤪 I had a conversation recently with a client who thought being in a calorie deficit meant cutting the already small amount of carbs she was eating. She was at 1,200 calories a day, going to the gym 6x a week, replacing dinners with a green smoothie, and could not figure out why she was exhausted and the scale wouldn't move. I told her I'd actually start her at 1,800 calories for fat loss...
Hey Reader, I used to stand in my kitchen at 6pm, staring into the fridge like it owed me something. Now I don't. And it's not because I meal prepped 47 containers on Sunday like a fitness influencer. It's because I removed the thinking entirely. Here's my lazy girl system: Carbs — I don't want to cook them or portion them. Rice cakes, store bought roti/phulka, frozen Stonefire mini naans, grain bread. Already portioned. Zero decisions. Maybeeee I'll make a pot of rice sometimes. Veg — I make...
