Episode 256: Put an End to Diet Perfectionism and the Overeating it Causes
Perfectionism. It plays out in so many facets of our life. Why? Because there is safety in perfection.
If we never mess up, if we never do anything bad, then nothing bad will happen to us.
If we can be perfect at our job we won’t get fired. If we can be perfect in our relationships no one will leave us. If we look perfect no one will reject us. If we’re perfect with our diet, we’ll finally have the body we want.
But it’s interesting, because I think in areas outside of food, we’re sort of forced to...
Episode 255: The Secret to Behavior Change You're Probably NOT Doing
I don’t know about you but when it comes to making changes in my life, I tend to focus a lot on the doing part of the equation.
If you want to change your body, you probably focus a lot on learning how to meal prep, finding the best workouts, and figuring out what supplements to take. I know if I want to grow my business I have to create meaningful social media content, advertise, and network.
But many of us inevitably run into a disconnect with the doing… That is, we know what to do but we aren’t actually doing...
Episode 254: How to Break Through Excuses and Get Sh*t Done
“There aren’t enough hours in the day.”
“I’m too tired.”
“It’s been a stressful day, I deserve a treat.”
“I’m just not motivated.”
“I’ll start tomorrow.”
“I don’t want to waste food.”
These are just a handful of the things we tell ourselves day in and day out that are keeping us stuck making poor food choices, skipping the gym, and generally not following through on our health goals.
And the thing is, some people will...

Episode 251: Understanding Your Thyroid Labs for Symptom Relief
------------------------------
Before we get into today's episode, I'm stoked to announce that for once I'm actually ahead of the curve in getting my Black Friday deal out to you. Well... deals.
I was trying to decide what sale would be most beneficial. Would 50% off one month of personal training be best? Or maybe 35% off a year long membership to The Club? Or what about giving a free GI map (AKA comprehensive gut panel) with the purchase of any nutrition program?
Instead of trying to read your mind, I decided to...
Episode 250: 5 Reasons You Lose Control Around Treats (And How to Stop)
Do you ever feel out of control around certain foods?
Maybe you can’t keep cookies in the house because you’ll eat the entire box within a day or 2.
Maybe when you do allow dessert into your house you intentionally eat the whole thing just to get rid of it so you don’t have to deal with that nagging voice in the back of your head that’s constantly pushing you to go back for more.
Maybe you only eat certain foods in the car or when no one is home because you know the amount you eat “isn’t...
Episode 249: Overwhelmed by Meal Prep? Avoid These Mistakes!
Ah meal prep. The secret weapon for staying on track with your nutrition whether your goal is to lose weight, balance hormones, improve your gut health, or simply build more consistent healthy eating habits.
But what if it feels like more of a burden than a help? Like it’s just one more thing on the never-ending to-do list. (And likely one more thing to procrastinate.)
If that’s the case, we are missing the point entirely. Meal prep should be something that takes stress off your plate, not something that adds...
Episode 248: Making Peace with Food with Mindful Eating
When I say “mindful eating” or “listen to your body” what’s your instinctual response?
I know for a lot of people their knee jerk reaction is, “My body wants cheetos and ice cream at every meal, so I don’t think you want me listening to my body.”
This is incredibly common and it points to an unfortunate theme: we do not trust our bodies. And we do not trust ourselves.
And where does that leave us but to rely on a diet telling us exactly what we are and are not...
Episode 247: Never Fall Off the Wagon Again with Habit Flexibility
Last week was rough. My cycle came and with it a huge wave of absolute, pure and utter exhaustion. Like, kept-nodding-off-in-the-chair-while-I-was-getting-my-hair-done exhaustion.
In this situation, it was absolutely the right call for me to trade my gym session for a walk on the trail. I was still getting movement in, but movement that actually added to my energy instead of depleting it further.
Don’t get me wrong, skipping the workout is not always the right call.
For example, if you miss your workouts 5 times a...
