Your Support Should Too.","description":"Sometimes the support that helped you get started isn't the support you need a year later. Episode #268 \ud83c\udf99\ufe0f In this special revisit, Coach Terri Lance reintroduces one of our favorite member conversations after a recent Facebook comment from Kirsten Hopkinson reminded us why this story still matters. When Kirsten first joined The Fasting Method, she had a clear goal: improve her health and lose weight. But what unfolded became something much deeper. As her journey evolved, so did the support she needed. Alongside weight loss and improved health markers, she discovered the power of community, coaching, education, and a mindset shift that helped her stop chasing quick fixes and start building a life she truly wanted to live. If you've ever wondered whether your own support needs have changed over time, this conversation is a powerful reminder that lasting transformation isn't about finding one perfect plan\u2014it's about having the right support for the season you're in. \ud83d\udc49 What you'll learn: Why lasting transformation is about more than weight loss How shifting your identity can change your health journey The role coaching, community, and education played in Kirsten's success Why there's no single "magic formula" for lasting change How your support needs naturally evolve over time Why building habits for your future self matters more than chasing perfection How mindset changes create lasting lifestyle changes What it really means to invest in yourself \ud83d\udcdd Transcript The transcript for this episode is available on our website: \ud83d\udc49 https:\/\/www.thefastingmethod.com\/podcasts\/ \ud83d\udc99 Find the Support That's Right for You One of the biggest themes in Kirsten's story is that the support you need today may not be the same support you'll need a year from now.
