New York Times bestselling author and fitness icon Tosca Reno shares her remarkable journey from 204 pounds at age 38 to magazine covers and massive success, then through devastating loss and financial ruin, and ultimately to creating Transform with Tosca—a holistic wellness program that addresses what most weight loss plans miss: emotional self-care.

• How Tosca showed up for her first bodybuilding competition and magazine cover shoots despite being 20 years older than competitors
• The visualization technique that kept her motivated when she wanted to quit
• The refrigerator trick she uses to stay inspired on hard days
• How she went from unknown to New York Times bestselling author in just five years
• The career-changing moment when the "key model" showed up 35 pounds overweight
• Navigating the devastating loss of her stepson and husband, plus financial bankruptcy
• Why weight loss is often a symptom of deeper unaddressed trauma
• The four-word question that can change your life: "Who am I being?"
• What makes Transform with Tosca different from every other weight loss program

1. Success is when preparedness meets opportunity - Show up ready even when you're not the "chosen one." You never know when your moment will come.
2. Discipline comes from knowing your why - Connect deeply to the reason behind your goals. When you know why, the how becomes easier.
3. Emotional self-care is the missing piece - You can have clean eating and exercise down, but without emotional self-care tools, sustainable transformation remains elusive.
4. Do it in community, not isolation - The magic happens in sisterhood. Accountability partners and shared vulnerability create breakthroughs that solo efforts can't.
5. Ask yourself daily: "Who am I being?" - This simple filter can shift your attitude and actions in real-time, helping you align with the person you want to become.

• "I could see this me that was zinging with purpose and passion. I wanted to be her, and I could see her and I believed in her and she was calling me. So, I had no choice. I went."

• "Success is when preparedness meets opportunity. We have to do that even when you don't have evidence of success yet. We just have to believe it's there because we're all just one decision away."

• "When women come to me and say, I want to lose weight, they're not saying that they think that's the problem, but weight is a symptom and typically it's a symptom of a deeper unaddressed trauma."
