57. The Problem with Affirmations Aug 17, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, we’re talking about the problem with affirmations. Affirmations have been a hot topic lately and don’t get me wrong, I believe in the power of affirmations. However, there are some problems with affirmations or our expectations around them. I’ve got a couple tips for you on how to make affirmations work for you and why they might be falling flat.

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

Tools to help you approach positive affirmations
What to do when we don’t believe our affirmations yet
Unpacking the concept of Confirmation Bias and how we have the power to prove our thoughts (whether positive or negative) to be true

56. Health at Every Size Aug 10, 2022

Show notes

In today’s episode, I am bringing my friend Kori Dover onto the show. Kori is the California Beef Council's registered dietitian and resident health professional, providing evidence-based education, resources and communication around beef nutrition.

She is also the voice behind GFree Kori, where she explores gluten free and guilt free living as a food lover and mom who happens to also be a registered dietitian with celiac. As Kori says, “there is no one-size-fits-all model in health, nutrition or with food. We create connections, celebrate and honor our cultures with food, and eating well should not leave you unsatisfied and hungry. Most of all, food and eating should not be based on fear."

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

Kori’s story with Celiac disease and how that has impacted her dietitian journey and relationship with food
The feeling of being betrayed by your body - for whatever reason - and how to overcome that
How food is personal and individualized; each body and person is different
Other ways to measure our health and progress besides our weight

55. The Gap Between Here and There Aug 03, 2022

Show notes

Today’s episode is straight from my journal. Lately as I've been traveling and speaking, I've been doing a lot of self reflection and talking through my thoughts out loud. I’ve been going through a bit of a funk and am finally getting some clarity as I've processed things. Taking the mess in my mind and putting it outside of me - whether that’s through a conversation with someone or onto paper in my journal - has been exactly what I've needed.

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

Being an enneagram 3 and the gifts and challenges that come with it
Growth and reflection
Learning to separate who I am from the titles I wear
What I would do if no one knew I was doing it

53. Ripple Effects Jul 20, 2022

Show notes

Today’s episode is inspired by an unexpected conversation that I had a little while ago when I was in Kentucky. I’ll share a story about the effects we have when we better ourselves and improve our lives in any way, are further reaching than we may ever know.

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

The small ways you’re showing up for yourself are making a difference; for yourself and for others
You never realize the impact you’re having on others
Rethinking how you’re acting and what you’re saying so you’re not passing insecurities and body shaming onto the next generation
You deserve all of this regardless of how it affects others
When you see other people confidently and unapologetically showing up for themselves and living their life… YOU can be that person for other people too!

51. Why I’m Hosting a Retreat Jul 06, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, I am talking about something new and exciting I’m doing; I’m hosting my very first in-person retreat! I started as a coach in the middle of the pandemic which means almost all the work I've done has been virtual. And thank goodness for that! But I’ll be honest, I'm craving in-person connection, and I'm so thankful we have that opportunity again.

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

Taking this opportunity to learn and grow and pour into one another in-person
How the retreat will give you the freedom to exist in our bodies just as they are, chase our dreams, and be present with our loved ones
How we need to stop holding ourselves back from living our lives
The goal is to help women feel less alone; to be in in-person community with a group of women who support and uplift one another
Who this retreat is for
Why I started this retreat, what you can expect, and what you’ll take home with you
