Sustainably Lean Academy
with Jessie Golden
Get leaner without losing your mind, tracking every bite, or giving up the foods you love.
Finally feel confident in a body you actually enjoy living in.
KEEP the results without the food drama.
There are only three things you need to know to get lean & stay lean (without losing your mind)
…unfortunately, it's the things most people get wrong.
In fact, not only is the way most people approach weight loss and maintaining their results (or lack thereof) incorrect, it’s what makes things worse.
NOT including your relationship with food.
Rushing the process. Short-term mindset. Inflexible mindset.
Neglecting how the human metabolism works at a *high level,*
so you can overcome plateaus, keep your body & brain happy, and easily transition into maintenance...
...even as your lifestyle or goals change.
Following a strategy that doesn't suit YOU!
Tracking food when you hate it, eating foods you loathe, removing the ones you love, leaving out those soul-filling happy hours with the girls.
Only to inevitably come face to face with the realization that…
“I can’t live like this forever. What do I do now?”
This is THE moment that keeps most women stuck in an endless cycle of diet-hopping and weight-yo-yoing.
You’ve lost the weight. You’ve worked hard on your relationship with food. You got the results you’d aimed for. Now what?
Without knowing how your mind and body work with weight loss OR a strategy for maintaining your results, you end up back where you started. Or worse, you end up HEAVIER.
Don't worry. After coaching 100s of women on their health and weight loss journey, I've seen how damaging fad diets can be, and I promise there's a better way. When you grasp how your mind & body work WITH weight loss, maintaining your results becomes second nature.
Want a strategy for LONG-TERM fat loss results that keeps your relationship with food top of mind?
You have to master 3 things...
GET YOUR MIND RIGHT
Those who don’t just lose the weight but keep it off have one thing in common:
They accept that it takes as long as it needs to. Long-term results happen through a patient, growth mindset. This means education, experimentation & practice.
There are 3 core mindsets that result in gaining even more weight than when we started. In SLA, you’ll learn the sustainable mindset required to lose, maintain, and keep it off.
UNDERSTAND THE METABOLISM
[this is where most people miss the mark]
Your metabolism is always adapting. And the way it responds is going to be unique to YOU. Those plateaus? This is why they happen. It is essential to know how to overcome them in a way that’s specific to your body.
Inside SLA, you’ll learn the truth—instead of the hype—about the 4 components that make up your overall metabolism so you’re *empowered*, not hopeless and confused.
USE A STRATEGY SPECIFIC TO YOU
If your strategy is built by someone else FOR someone else, you’re going to struggle – this is why cookie-cutter weight loss plans don’t work.
When you choose the fat loss strategy that suits YOU, your lifestyle, your body, and your preferences…it all gets easier. Your mind is at ease. It’s sustainable. Your strategy fits seamlessly into your day-to-day life, so you’re not sacrificing what’s most important to you in life.
Inside SLA, you’ll learn how not just to get lean but STAY lean, all while customizing the entire approach to how YOU like to live.
… most importantly, you’ll finally understand that the process doesn’t need to be
drastic or miserable…AT ALL.
“Can I really look the way I want and keep the results without dozens of food rules or spending every waking hour at the gym?”
I'm not the coach who will tell you things like...
"You must eat protein within 30 minutes of waking up."
"You have to track your food."
"You must lift weights 4 days a week" OR "avoid exercise that spikes cortisol."
"Never drink coffee on an empty stomach."
"All meals must have at least 30 grams of protein."
"Only drink raw milk and don't touch those processed nut or oat ones (gasp!)"
"If you can't pronounce it, don't ever eat it."
"Blood sugar spikes are bad...and you should be wearing a glucose monitor."
"Decaf is the only way, because you should always void cortisol."
Instead, I'm more curious about...
How YOU feel when you do those things (and whether or not you enjoy them)!
What YOUR idea of a healthy & enjoyable lifestyle is - and if your food & exercise choices actually align with that.
What YOUR goals are...and if you're struggling to meet them with the ways you're eating & exercising.
If you actually give a damn about any of the food/exercise "rules" you're following, or if you just think you should.
Why you don't trust yourself to make your own food & exercise decisions for YOUR OWN body!
Absolutely!
Intentional weight loss can be a gentle & respectful process.
Maybe right now you...
- Believe the only way to achieve your goals is to be obsessive or follow extremes, so your fear of giving weight loss another go is at an all-time high. You’ve worked too hard for a healthy relationship with food, + don’t want to lose it!
- Don’t understand what leads to results, so rather than being able to navigate life & body changes easily, you panic and go back to the “trusty” extremes…and start again on Monday.
- Get overwhelmed with all the conflicting nutrition and fitness information out there. Before you know it, there are more foods on your restrictive diet list than there are in your fridge/pantry.
- Feel like you’re working SO hard in the gym and eating “clean,” but your weight isn’t budging. You might even be gaining some.
- Have no idea what to do after losing weight (if you get there.) How to actually maintain the results - the missing key for most.
There is a better way.
It gets to be gentle. It gets to be calm. It gets to be self-respecting. It gets to be imperceptible to those around you. And it gets to work.
This is the ethos of Sustainably Lean Academy. Let’s make fat loss chill again.
what clients are saying
"The biggest outcome is being really kind to myself while also being really confident [in the process]. I’ve lost 7 pounds, which is what I wanted to lose, and I’m feeling invigorated to continue going through the different phases she teaches in the course."
- Lauren T.
"I’ve seen this balance of ‘I can live the life I want to live, I can be social in the way that I want, I don’t have to be restrictive, and I can see overtime that number gradually going down. And it feels really good!"
"I’ve seen a number on the scale that I haven’t seen in a really, really long time. But really what feels more powerful to me is that I’m seeing it consistently."
- Jenny M.
"I wasn’t nervous, but what I didn’t know was how big of an impact this was going to have on my life. I’ve been in programs before where I have to revolve my entire life around measuring and weighing, macros, all the things—and this wasn’t like that at all."
- Kati N.
Fat loss doesn’t need to involve pushing your body and mind to the brink…or anything close.
In fact, it shouldn’t.
- Diet plans rooted in broscience + misinformation keep you on the hamster wheel of gaining + losing the same weight every few months. You’re left feeling defeated and isolated. You feel like YOU are the issue and a failure (when the approach is!)
- You’ve been convinced that “just eat healthy and workout regularly” will get you to your goals, so you’re utterly confused as you wonder why nothing is working.
- You feel insecure for trying SO hard and doing everything “right,” yet feeling like you don’t have anything to show for it, creating more stress around food and your body
- The lack of results while spinning your wheels has left you feeling completely hopeless yet more desperate for results than ever, and you end up questioning why an intelligent + savvy woman like yourself can’t figure it out…when others can.
The truth is that this is a lot simpler than you think. You just need to know where to put your focus.
Getting leaner in a sustainable way creates women who are empowered with the knowledge of how their minds + bodies actually work.
You stop giving your power away, reclaim your sovereignty, and set a new standard of physique change for generations of females to come.
The code has been cracked on how to change your physique in a way that FEELS good to your body & mind…and that confidence in yourself is everything.
You are your own damn guru with food, your body, and any changes you want to make…
…so you never look to someone else for the answers—ever again.
You exist in your leaner body without any food drama. Life is peaceful. You are liberated.
I’m here to help you make that happen.
Consider me YOUR mind-metabolism translator. I transmute the language of fat loss into a strategy of simplicity…
…so that you can finally get that lean physique, you’ve always wanted and KEEP it.
Now is the time to do this the RIGHT way + reclaim your body for good!

That’s really what Sustainably Lean Academy is all about.
Making your own rules.
Achieving what you’ve longed for with your body but in a completely new way.
When you let go of the old programming, beliefs, and outdated (or plain false) rules about food & what’s possible for your body…
radical transformation happens!
SLA is NOT for you if...
- You have an unhealthy relationship with food. This can look like bingeing, chronic overeating, fear around foods, an obsession with “clean eating,” constantly thinking about food in a stressful way, frequent emotional or stress eating, chronic restriction, attaching morality to food choices & more.
- You're looking for a strict meal plan or rigid rules to follow.
- You don’t care about the well-being of your mind & body and are just focused on getting leaner.
- You're seeking to get shredded or super lean.
- You’re desperate for your body to change so that you feel lovable or worthy, so you need results ASAP.
- The thought of changing your food habits & routines elicits an emotional response. It’s triggering.
- Your body is suffering the effects of chronic stress, including insomnia, anxiety, digestive issues, menstrual cycle irregularities, etc.
- You’ve been chronically under-eating for 3-6+ months.
"I dropped a pant size [in 8 weeks], so that is exciting. And overall, I feel better – I think way less about food in an obsessive way. If I want a cookie, I will eat a cookie – in fact Jess really encourages you to find a way to incorporate things you love into your regular meals and when you free yourself to doing that the benefits are amazing."
- Kristina
"I’m sleeping better and my mental health has improved tremendously! I'm way less manic about trying to figure out how to take care of my body. Feeling confident!"
- Adrienne
"Physically I’ve lost about 8lbs. [in 8 weeks], but more importantly I’ve done it in a way that’s let me keep up my activity and energy levels & never left me hungry. It’s actually been enjoyable and it feels like I’m doing it in a way that will keep the weight off because I’m taking my time instead of rushing the process."
- Crystal

What if I’m not sure if I’m ready for weight loss, either mentally or physically?
If you’re not sure, then you’re likely not ready. You’ll know you’re ready because you have a healthy sense of detachment from the results. It would be nice to be leaner, but your sense of self doesn’t hinge upon it. You should also feel calm + confident around food without any extreme behaviors. Take this time to focus on your mindset & overall health BEFORE jumping into this! Sustainably Lean Academy isn’t going anywhere:
Is SLA only for women?
SLA is for anyone who identifies as a woman.
Hi! I'm Jessie
I struggled with endless dieting, constant overeating, restriction, over-exercising, abusing my body, and terrible body image for nearly a decade.
I eventually threw my hands up in the air and shifted my focus to healing my relationship with food from the inside out – a life-changing decision I wish for every woman who struggles with their relationship with food.
Once I healed my “food stuff,” and after years of not trying to change my body, a strange thing happened. I began to develop a serious interest in the science behind sustainable weight loss, and the idea didn’t trigger me in the slightest!
The idea of attaining a leaner physique was exciting, but it didn’t come with the same sense of desperation as it had in the past. Far from it! It came with a sense of humor and healthy detachment.
After nearly a decade following complete misinformation and extreme approaches, finding the “right” way fascinated me. I became a sponge, completed my Level 1 Precision Nutrition certification in 2017, and learned the keys to long-lasting behavior change through coaching hundreds of women.
Through my journey, I have developed a passion for bringing the tools, insights, and evidence-based information I've learned to others, and I’m excited to show women that it doesn’t have to be black & white.
I want women to know that many can have aesthetic goals, maintain the results, and sustain a beautiful relationship with food.
See you inside!
Jessie
It’s your right to learn & understand how your body works
How it interacts with food & movement.
How you can achieve your “ideal” physique while honoring your unique preferences, values & goals.
How to accomplish these goals while not losing your sh*t with food.
You don’t have to sacrifice your relationship with food in the pursuit of looking the way you want.
You don’t have to sacrifice looking the way you want just so you can enjoy food.
There is a magical balance, and I can’t wait to show you how to achieve it!
