265. Honest Hour: I Loved & Loathed My Postpartum Body (Let's Talk What To Expect With Body Image Postpartum) Dec 23, 2024

Show notes

On today's episode I am sitting down solo to chat about all things postpartum body image and body changes. I wanted to record this episode because if you are pregnant or navigating your own postpartum fitness journey – you are not alone.

The female body is incredible, and you can be so proud of what you're capable of! Growing, nurturing and housing your little one for 9 months is life changing and mind blowing. But just as much as you can be in awe, it's also okay if you struggle with your body image, ever changing body or just miss the "old" version of you, too.

It's okay to love your body while also longing for the version of yourself you used to know. It's also okay if you love your body, but also want to change certain parts of it.

On today's episode, I'm here to create space for both.

258. Q&A: When Is It Time To STOP Tracking Calories? Nov 25, 2024

Show notes

On today's episode, I am sitting down solo to answer a question submitted by one of our amazing listeners named Steph regarding when you should stop tracking your calories, and how to go about it.

By the end of today's episode you can expect to learn the signs that indicate you may be ready to cut back or remove tracking your food from your daily routine, situations in which I would highly advise re-evaluating your relationship to food logging and how to find the balance between using food logging as an educational tool while also knowing when and how to trust your own instincts.

Tracking is a great way to learn about what you're eating and hold yourself accountable, however you shouldn't feel required to track your calories for the rest of your life. My goal in this episode is to help you make empowered choices and maintain healthy habits without the numbers.

257. GABI'S STORY: 23 Pounds Down After 2 Kids & The Pressure To Lose Weight Postpartum Nov 21, 2024

Show notes

On today's episode, I am chatting with one of our amazing clients in the Hot & Healthy Membership named Gabi.

As a full time working mom with 2 young daughters, Gabi understands what it means to be busy! Yet despite all the demands on her plate as a mom and attorney, Gabi didn't want her schedule and these responsibilities to hold her back from feeling her best… and feeling like "herself" again.

In today's episode Gabi opens up about her past struggles with losing weight and dieting, why previous dieting approaches made it impossible to be consistent despite her best intentions and most of all – how she's overcome "mom guilt" as she's learned to prioritize her wellbeing, nutrition and fitness while still wanting to show up strong for her kids.

Gabi also candidly discusses what it means to embrace your postpartum body despite wanting to change it and how losing weight in a flexible and unrestricted way is helping her be a positive role model to her daughters.

Whether you're a postpartum mom or now just trying to lose weight, the nuggets of wisdom in this episode will 100% inspire you to lose 20 or more pounds as well.
