Weight Loss: Connection is the Key

Susan Baumgaertel · December 6, 2025

This time of year the weight loss sirens are everywhere…

🧜‍♀️ Gym memberships with the first month free

🧜‍♀️ The “dry January” ruse

🧜‍♀️ Reminders to detox and cleanse

But before you feel shipwrecked, yet again…

You may want to watch this interview twice—the first time alone, and the second with your family. 🍿

Wendy Schofer, MD was a recent guest on the Voices With Vigor show, and I couldn’t have been more delighted with our conversation.

She’s a U.S. Navy (ret) pediatrician, trauma-informed family health pioneer, and she’s on a mission to help families build healthier relationships with food.

We laughed—a lot—despite exploring complex topics, such as…

🌟 The profound impact of leading from connection rather than control

🌟 A connection mindset applying to our bodies, our relationships, and our professional lives

🌟 Humor, improv, and laughter serving as a powerful love language and a vital coping mechanism for relationships and family

This intimate conversation was live, unfiltered, and unscripted…

Part of the “Visionary Veterans” series this past November.

You can now watch the on-demand video replay for free! 🎙️🎬

In the meantime, enjoy these fun clips…

And channel your inner love language along with us. 💞
