Feel Better. Live Free. | Healthy Weight Loss & Wellness for Midlife Women
Feel Better. Live Free. with Ruth Soukup is the revolutionary health & wellness podcast brought to you by Thinlicious®. It's a show dedicated to helping midlife women find lasting health & sustainable weight loss by healing our bodies from the inside out, while questioning the outdated mainstream narratives surrounding health and weight loss that haven't worked.
Our mission is to help you the freedom to look and feel your best. The freedom to NOT be controlled by food addictions ever again. And the freedom to confidently pursue all your big goals and dreams because your health and weight issues are no longer holding you back.
Each week we’ll discuss what it means to live your best life as a woman in your 40’s, 50’s, and beyond, talking openly and honestly about the highs and lows of weight loss, wellness, cultivating a healthy mindset, and pretty much everything in between.
We'll also speak with leading health experts on everything from thyroid and cortisol health to hormonal balance and menopause to healing your gut.
It’s a place where you'll discover actionable strategies for losing weight and getting healthy, unconventional health breakthroughs that no one else is talking about, and the powerful mindset shifts you’ll need to find lifelong wellness and true happiness (with a whole lot of tough love along the way.)
Basically, this is the podcast to listen to if you're looking for answers to these type of questions:

Metabolic Flexibility: How to Train Your Body to Burn Fat Again So You Can Finally Feel Free
This summer I spent almost a whole month eating my way through Europe–pasta, pretzels, gelato, french fries–all the things I would normally avoid.
But when I finally came home, I hadn’t actually gained any weight.
It’s pretty crazy, especially when I realize that five years ago one little cheat meal would leave me three pounds heavier and spiraling with guilt for weeks.
But the difference isn't willpower—it's metabolic flexibility.
And once you understand what that actually means, everything about weight loss starts to make sense.
I talk a lot about all the things you can do to lose weight, but not nearly enough about the freedom that happens when you actually HEAL your body.
Because when I started doing all the research, I basically discovered that pretty much everything I'd ever been taught about losing weight was backwards.
The calorie counting, the restriction, the willpower—all of it was actually making my problem worse. And the moment I stopped fighting my body and started working with it instead? That's when everything clicked.
And so today we're going to talk about why that whole approach is completely backwards. We're diving deep into metabolic flexibility—what it actually means, why it's the real game-changer for your health, and how you can stop fighting your body and start working with it instead.
By the end of this episode, you'll understand why every diet has failed you, what your body actually needs to burn fat efficiently, and how you can finally get the food freedom you've been dreaming about.
Plus, I'm going to share something pretty exciting I'm launching that can help you put all of this into action for the last 90 days of this year.
So let’s dig in.
