Erin was really, really good at dieting.

Give her a strict set of rules, a goal and an end date? She could do it.

And for years, she basically accepted that this was how her life—and her body—would work: diet, lose the weight, eventually gain it back, and diet again when she had somewhere important to be.

She had tried Weight Watchers, worked with a nutritionist, taken weight-loss medication and spent decades categorizing food as either “good” or “bad.” At one point, she genuinely believed that being the kind of person who could eat half a croissant and leave the rest simply wasn’t possible for her.

Then she joined 10/10.

And perhaps hilariously, she chose a summer that looked like the WORST possible time to do it.

Family staying with her in Hawaii for a month. Restaurants. Airports. Travel. Time with her long-distance boyfriend. And finally, an all-you-can-eat scuba diving trip.

She ended the summer 10 lbs down—including losing her final two pounds on the all-you-can-eat boat.

But this conversation goes so much deeper than weight loss.

Erin and I talk about growing up believing dieting was simply part of being a woman, using food to buffer emotions beginning at 14, the secret belief that she needed to be thin to be loved, and what changed when someone loved her before she had changed her body.

We also get into one of my favourite parts of 10/10: realizing that the way you relate to food is rarely just about food.

For Erin, learning to release scarcity and control around eating started changing how she experienced travel, pleasure, her relationship, sex, and even the amount of presence she could bring to the people she loves.

And yes—we talk about the moment she ate part of an incredible orange cinnamon bun, genuinely enjoyed it…and then simply didn’t want the rest.

Something she previously thought was impossible.

A conversation about dieting, control, scarcity, self-trust, pleasure—and discovering that maybe the goal was never becoming better at controlling yourself.

Maybe it was finally realizing you don’t need to.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with 10/10 client Elisa—a holistic nutritionist, hairstylist, business owner, wife and mom of two who spent most of her life trying to figure out her weight.

From being put on diets as a child, to secretly eating food, over-exercising, restricting, studying holistic nutrition and eventually weighing and meal-prepping her food…Elisa knew A LOT about nutrition.

And none of it gave her what she was actually looking for.

After 10 weeks inside 10/10, Elisa is 15 lbs down—but the weight loss is almost beside the point.

We talk about why knowing more about nutrition can actually make trusting your body harder, the realization that she was never a “monster” who needed to be controlled around food, why dieting creates greed, and what happened when she stopped trying to outsmart her body and started listening to it instead.

We also get into what 10/10 actually looks like as a busy mom and business owner who eats out, travels, has a chef for a husband and does not have time to weigh, track or prepare separate meals.

As Elisa puts it: “The busier you are, the better this works.”

A beautiful conversation about food, pleasure, self-trust—and how much life becomes available to you when you’re no longer spending it thinking about what you should and shouldn’t eat.

In this episode of Let’s Get the Skinny, Kiki sits down with personal stylist Sydnie Long for a conversation that goes far beyond clothes. What starts as a discussion about personal style quickly unfolds into a deeper exploration of identity, self-trust, and how we show up in the world.

Sydnie shares her approach to styling as a tool for clarity—not about becoming someone new, but about refining and expressing who you already are. She breaks down how many women feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in their wardrobes, not because they lack taste, but because they lack a clear framework for making aligned choices.

Together, Kiki and Sydnie explore the emotional layers behind getting dressed—from body image and confidence to decision fatigue and the desire to feel “like yourself” again. Sydnie explains how her signature styling experience helps women simplify their wardrobes, shop with intention, and build a cohesive style that reflects their current life and identity.

The conversation also highlights how style can become a daily practice of self-respect and embodiment—mirroring the same principles Kiki teaches through the 10/10 Method. When you trust your body and your choices, everything becomes more easeful—including what you wear.

Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to stop outsourcing your style, reconnect with your preferences, and step into a version of yourself that feels clear, grounded, and expressed—without overthinking or overconsuming.

In wrapping up… for those listening who want to work with Sydnie: just let her know that “Kiki sent me” for a 15% discount off of the signature styling experience. They can reach her at @thesydnielong on IG, or visit sydnielong.com, or email sydnie@sydnielong.com.

What happens when you stop treating food like a problem to solve—and start relating to it like something simple, neutral, and effortless?

In this episode, I sit down with a past 10/10 client who shares what actually changed for her—not just physically, but mentally and emotionally—after going through the process a year ago.

We talk about:

• The exhausting cycle of feast-or-famine eating (and why it never works)
• Letting go of calorie counting—and why that was the turning point
• The moment she realized her habits had naturally changed
• How to tell the difference between real hunger and emotional eating
• Why “naturally thin” women aren’t obsessing the way you think
• And how her relationship with food quietly transformed into something… effortless

This conversation isn’t about perfection, discipline, or control.

It’s about what happens when you become honest, present, and connected to your body—and how that changes everything.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not that bad,” but still stuck in your head about food… this one will hit.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” with food — eating clean, trying the latest wellness advice, staying disciplined — and still not seeing the weight loss you want… this episode is for you.

In this conversation, I’m joined by 10/10 client Kiva, who shares what it really looked like behind the scenes before she found the 10/10 Method. Like so many women, she was stuck in the exhausting cycle of thinking about food all the time… trying to be “good,” falling off track, and wondering why it felt so hard to stay consistent.

Inside the 10/10 process, something finally clicked.

Kiva shares how learning to reconnect with her body’s natural hunger cues helped her stop obsessing about food, calm the chaos around eating, and start seeing real changes in her body — without dieting, tracking, or constantly fighting herself. The 10/10 Method is designed to retrain your brain around food so you can finally eat normally and allow your body to release the weight it’s been holding onto.

In this episode we talk about:
• What Kiva tried before 10/10 that never worked long-term
• The mindset shifts that made weight loss finally feel possible
• Why learning to trust hunger signals changed everything
• What actually helped her stop overthinking food every day
• How her body began responding once she stopped forcing it

If you’ve been stuck in food drama for years — and you know there has to be a simpler way to lose weight and feel good in your body — this conversation might be the perspective shift you’ve been waiting for.

Naomi came to the 10/10 Method gripping hard—macro tracking, “perfect” routines, and secret kitchen binges while she baked. In this honest conversation, she shares how surrendering control, listening for real hunger, and choosing presence (even while traveling and working under pressure) shifted everything—body and life. You’ll hear how she released nearly 20 kilos without white-knuckling, built secure boundaries (with food and people), and found the peace she always hoped thinness would bring.

In this episode, Kiki sits down with Steph Gee — beauty entrepreneur and co-founder of Gee Beauty — for a raw and heartfelt conversation about her lifelong relationship with food, control, and self-worth.

Steph opens up vulnerably about her earliest childhood memories of secret eating, the pressure to perform and stay “on,” and how the 10/10 Method helped her finally reconnect to calm, presence, and self-respect. She shares how learning to sit to eat, create space before meals, and slow her pace has transformed not just her relationship with food, but her leadership, mindset, and sense of self.

Steph also reveals her favorite parts of the 10/10 experience — from the unexpected friendships to Kiki’s uncanny ability to name the exact thoughts and patterns so many women secretly struggle with.

This is a conversation about pace, presence, and redefining success — in food, business, and life.
