In this powerful episode, Rayne sits down with hypnotherapist and neurofeedback practitioner Nicky Tangney to unpack the truth behind lifelong weight struggles — and why it’s never about food, willpower or discipline.
Nicky shares her raw story of battling weight since childhood, the subconscious belief that shaped her identity, and the moment everything changed. Together, we explore emotional weight vs physical weight, why diets fail 98% of the time, the role of cortisol and stress, and how perimenopause blindsides so many women.
This conversation goes deeper than dieting:
It’s about identity.
It’s about emotional safety.
It’s about learning to trust your body again.
If you’re exhausted from starting over every Monday, if you feel like you’re doing everything “right” and nothing is shifting, if you’re stuck in shame, overthinking, or self-punishment — this episode will change how you see yourself forever.
