Maintenance Mindset Mondays is all about cracking open the conversation about what REAL maintenance looks like – beyond the scale and deep into personal transformation. Join Gina and Odette as they dive into the week’s focus, share insights on all things maintenance, and answer your questions. Whether you’re new or experienced, there’s something for everyone!

In this episode, Gina and Odette explore the powerful connection between mindfulness and motivation, especially during tough seasons, like mid-winter, or when life just feels heavy. They reflect on her personal shift from stress-driven habits to intentional action and share how even small changes, like cleaning a room or painting a wall, can become a radical act of self-care. Gina challenges listeners to stop waiting for the “perfect time” and start showing up in ways their future selves will thank them for. It’s a refreshingly real conversation about taking ownership of your space, your mindset, and your choices, even when you’re not feeling it right now.

In this episode, Gina reflects on the deeper purpose of mindfulness week: connecting to where you’re at and what you truly need. Through community comments and personal stories, she unpacks how different perspectives, life circumstances, and even the weather can bring awareness to our habits and thought patterns. From emotional eating during a polar vortex to the power of routines that feel a little boring (in a good way), she reminds listeners that sustainable change isn’t about perfection, but about consistently checking in, showing up, and staying curious about the process, not just the scale.

In this episode, Gina welcomes Dr. Jennifer Zelovitzky, a certified menopause provider and clinical director at MedCan, for a real and refreshingly honest conversation about what’s actually happening in menopause, and why so many women feel caught off guard by it. They unpack how symptoms like sleep disruption, brain fog, and weight gain often get blamed solely on hormones, when it’s really the whole aging process at play. Dr. Jennifer breaks down the difference between perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause, while highlighting how lifestyle strategies, like managing stress, improving sleep, and staying consistent with healthy routines, can make all the difference.

Welcome to your Midweek Motivation!

This week, Gina and Odette get real about the fear of change and the trap of doing the same things over and over, especially when they’re no longer working. Drawing on a powerful member comment, Gina reflects on her own struggles with stress, grief, and denial, and the moment she realized knowing what to do wasn’t enough, she had to do it. From shifting routines to addressing deep emotional triggers, Gina and Odette break down how life, hormones, and old habits can sneak up on you, and why staying the same is sometimes the very thing standing in your way.

With so much noise out there (zone this, fasted that), Amanda brings it all back to basics. They explore how movement should be accessible, enjoyable, and meaningful, especially for women navigating perimenopause and postmenopause. From calling out fitness myths to sharing laugh-out-loud moments about menopause parties and vibration devices, this conversation is real, relatable, and packed with no-nonsense advice for anyone feeling overwhelmed by all the “shoulds” when it comes to moving their body.

In this episode, Gina is joined by Dr. Paul Hrkal to talk all things supplements, what’s worth taking, what’s not, and how they actually support weight loss in the context of The Livy Method. It’s not about magic pills or fat-burning fads. Instead, Dr. Paul breaks down how foundational supplements like vitamin D, magnesium, and omega-3s play a role in helping the body function at its best, especially when it’s working hard to release fat. The conversation touches on common deficiencies, the importance of digestion, and why supplements are meant to complement, not replace, the work you’re already doing on The Program.

This chat is the gentle nudge to check in, lean into where you’re at, and keep showing up in ways that feel meaningful to you.

In this episode, Gina draws a clear line between traditional weight loss and true, sustainable change. She unpacks how our weekend habits and Monday mindset often keep old patterns alive, and how awareness is the first step to breaking free. Listeners will hear how cravings and hunger evolve as the body starts getting what it actually needs, and why satisfaction starts to feel different. Gina also reminds us that maximizing goes well beyond food, bringing attention to the role of sleep, stress, movement, and support. And for anyone stuck on the struggle bus? She offers straight-up encouragement to name it, learn from it, and keep going, one choice at a time.
