153. my entrepreneurial journey: from startups to food to business May 21, 2025

Cassidy pulls back the curtain on her full entrepreneurial journey—including parts many listeners don't know about. She shares her evolution from creating scalable onboarding systems in tech startups to becoming a health coach, and now expanding to help experts scale their impact without burning out.

She discusses why she's stepping away from trying to help people who don't want to change to support those on bigger missions—and why she sees this as an expansion, not an abandonment, of her work.

This vulnerable conversation explores what it means to honor your most expanded self, share your evolution without apologizing for growing, and upgrade to a bigger vessel that carries more of what you have to offer.

For anyone navigating their own evolution or trying to create meaningful impact without sacrificing wellbeing, this episode offers both inspiration and permission to grow.

152. stronger, not smaller: embracing my body beyond the scale May 14, 2025

In this candid and heartfelt episode, Cassidy dives deep into body acceptance and reframing our relationship with movement. Inspired by a listener request, she explores how to embrace working out for strength rather than pursuing smaller size. She shares personal insights about recognizing that negative body thoughts often stem from cultural messaging and internalized standards rather than our own beliefs which gives us the permission to create our own narrative.

Through vulnerable storytelling, including a touching tribute to her friend Kelly who lost her battle with cancer, Cassidy reminds listeners to appreciate their bodies for what they can do rather than how they look. She offers practical advice for shifting from appearance-based goals to performance-focused achievements, emphasizing how this transformation has enhanced her own confidence beyond physical appearance.

This episode is an excellent reminder that our bodies aren't problems to be fixed, but vessels for experiencing life's adventures that require respect and love.

80. the differences between wellness, well-being, & diet thinking Oct 10, 2022

Today's solo is inspired by a question that recently came into my Q&A box. This definitely is not the first time someone has asked me for my thoughts on this topic, but the way this listener asked the question totally inspired this episode. “Can you talk more about the differences between having a wellness mindset and a diet-punishment mindset?” What a fantastic question, and I know for many of you, this is something you’ve dealt with, and I know I have dealt with it on many occasions as well. I talk about how healing sometimes means taking steps back to unlearn and unpack fatphobic norms, the roots of diet culture, the way fatphobia shows up in medical and health fields, what is wellness, and the difference between habits and emotions. In this episode, we cover:

We live in a fatphobic society so there’s a lot of unlearning we have to do [0:52]
What is diet culture [5:49]
Focusing on BMI and other body image issues [10:46]

55. how to build a foundation of healthy habits Mar 28, 2022

Hear me out, there are so many things that took me a long time to figure out, that I am happy about. For example, I'm proud that I didn't fully find out what I wanted to do with my life until I was 30. I'm also glad that I've had as many failures as I've had successes because what I've gotten out of all of that are lessons.But there are some things that I wish I would have gotten right the first time or around or at least I wish I knew about earlier. It would have saved me a lot of heartache if I just avoided things like dieting on and off or being frustrated with myself for not having it together. But guess what, everything I've learnt, I want to pass on and share with you! In today’s solo episode, I am talking about all the advice that has helped me become a healthier and happier person that I wish I knew sooner. I talk about how growing up I felt I needed to filter my joy through a lens of happiness, why success comes from personal practices and routine, and finally I share some habits that have worked for me that can serve you. In this episode, we cover:

You already have it together babe and there’s no destination you need to reach [2:35]
Filtering my decisions through a lens of sacrifice in order to be happy [9:22]
Success comes from routine and focus not weight loss [15:21]

54. setting up your kitchen to make healthy eating effortless Mar 21, 2022

I know that I'm not alone in shaming myself in the past for not being motivated enough to be the “healthiest” person at all times. Obviously, that shame is neither appropriate nor helpful, but I am human and it’s easy to beat yourself up over small things. In all honesty, being healthy has nothing to do with what you eat, it’s more than that. Being healthy involves a routine, a lifestyle, observing your habits and your mindset. It’s a holistic approach that goes beyond obsessing over what you eat or didn’t eat. In today’s episode, I am talking about all things logistics when it comes to setting up your kitchen to make healthy eating effortless. I talk about what it means to be healthy, some of the problems we face when we try to create a balanced life, and why you don’t need all this fancy equipment to be successful in the kitchen. In this episode, we cover:

What does healthy mean? [0:20]
The struggle to actually plan your week [5:28]
Have a set of go to meals [10:55]
Yes you have time you just need to make it [14:14]
Some hacks and tools to make your kitchen life easy [20:49]
Why the Vitamix has been a lifesaver for me [28:07]
Creating the perfect kitchen environment [34:25]
