Weight loss isn’t just about eating less or working out more.

In this episode of The Balance Talk Show, I sit down with Dr. Christle Guevarra, a board-certified family and sports medicine physician, to unpack what truly drives sustainable weight loss.

From hormones to mindset, habits, and lifestyle factors, our conversation goes beyond diets and quick fixes and into the real reasons people feel stuck despite “doing everything right.”

If you’re tired of chasing the scale and want a smarter, more balanced approach to weight loss, this episode will change how you see your body and your progress.

Hi, I’m Alpa.

I’m a strength and nutrition-based fitness coach and counsellor, dedicated to helping people build healthy habits and long-term lifestyle balance.

I take you through a chapter of my life that felt imbalanced and uncertain, and how conscious choices helped me to move toward a more balanced way of living. From navigating personal challenges to redefining my priorities around health, wealth, family, and inner well-being, this journey became the foundation for something bigger.

That’s what led me to create The Balance Talk show - a podcast born from real experiences and real challenges. A space for honest conversations about building a life that feels aligned, not rushed. Where success isn’t just about achievement, but about sustainability, relationships, and self-awareness.

This is the beginning of a conversation about balance - in life, in work, and within ourselves.
