Thin Brain Training with Coach Carlene Podcasts is based on Carlene's 15+ years of working with obese women to help them not just lose weight but to keep that weight off. It doesn't matter what diet you use or how fast you want to lose weight, what matters is the mental changes you make to break embedded dieting patterns. What good is it to lose all that weight only to gain it back because once you're at goal you return to the eating habits that made you gain weight in the first place?
 
Can setbacks fuel future success? When I coach entrepreneurs, I tell them, "Fail forward and fail fast, and every day will be a school day." What that means is that there is always a lesson to be had and failure is one of our greatest teachers. Approach every day as a school day. In this podcast,​ I will do my best to share with you my failures, business and personal, and all the lessons learned so that hopefully you don't have to repeat those same mistakes.
