The Stories You Tell Yourself: Rewriting Your Identity
In this episode, Kyla Holley returns after a break to explore the powerful stories we tell ourselves—about our bodies, intelligence, relationships and worth—and how those narratives shape behaviour and identity. She gives practical steps to change these stories: write and name them, externalize thoughts, spot confirmation bias, and reframe negatives into more balanced, believable beliefs to support lasting change on a weight-loss or recovery journey. The Smaller Stomach, Bigger Life Community is a supportive space for people navigating life after bariatric surgery or while taking GLP-1 medications. Inside, we explore the emotional, behavioural, and psychological side of weight loss — the parts that matter long after the scale changes.

Tell or Keep Quiet? The Bariatric & GLP‑1 Disclosure Dilemma
One of the biggest emotional decisions before bariatric surgery has nothing to do with food, vitamins, or recovery… It’s deciding who — if anyone — you want to tell. In this episode, we explore the very real pros and cons of sharing your bariatric surgery journey with friends, family, coworkers, and social circles. From fear of judgment to the desire for support, this conversation dives into the emotional complexity behind disclosure, privacy, boundaries, and vulnerability. Whether you’re completely open about your surgery or planning to keep it private, this episode will help you make a decision that feels aligned with your wellbeing — not other people’s expectations.

Dump the Diet Mindset!
Kyla Holley explains why decades of dieting rules often hold people back after bariatric surgery or while on GLP-1s, and why letting go of rigid rules is essential to long-term success. We explore why the dieting mindset was never designed for long-term success, and why carrying it into life after weight loss surgery can keep you feeling trapped, frustrated, and disconnected from your body. You’ll learn why diet rules fail, how they impact your relationship with food after bariatric surgery, and what a more sustainable, empowering approach actually looks like. This is your invitation to shift from restriction to self-trust—and finally create food freedom that lasts.
