How To Deal With Emotional Eating And Heal Our Hormones And Relationship With Food, with Amber Romaniuk Mar 06, 2024

Show notes

Our relationship with food is so complex and important for both our physical and mental health. I’ve spent a lot of my adult life trying to deprogram diet culture and deal with guilt around certain foods, reprogramming the morality we place on how we eat. And I've spent the last few years trying to figure out how to use food to make me feel physically good... how can I nourish myself, how can I optimize myself with what I consume, and how food impacts my hormone imbalances.

So today, we're diving deep with Amber Romaniuk on emotional eating, diet culture, food triggers, and the impact of hormones and cravings.

Amber is an Emotional Eating, Digestive and Hormone Expert, with 10 years experience helping women create body confidence, intuition and optimal health through mindset healing, self-care and overcoming self-sabotage with food. Her podcast “The No Sugarcoating Podcast” has over a million downloads. Amber overcame her own emotional eating journey after gaining and losing more than 1000 lbs combined, spending over $50,000 on binge foods and spending 5 years balancing her hormones, digestion. Now she helps others achieve Body Freedom so they can experience true confidence and health.

So today, we're throwing it back to the biggest lessons we learned about how to take responsibility for our own triggers, and how to create space and boundaries between our emotions and other people's baggage.

Feeling Lonely? How To Meet People In An Over-Optimized World | I’m The Problem It’s Me Feb 28, 2024

Show notes

Welcome to the first episode of our new series “I’m the problem, it’s me,” where I deep dive on the struggles and fuck-ups I’ve been facing lately, because let’s be honest, sometimes we’re the problem. And those experiences are usually our greatest teachers. Think of this as adulting confessions.

And today, I’m calling bullshit on all of the complaining I do about how impossible it is to meet people, and how lonely I feel. Because the reality is, I’ve been optimizing myself out of human connection and removing all my chances for meeting new people in the name of efficiency.

Social connection should never be a “reward” we have to earn by being productive and efficient, so I’m on a mission to rewrite how I meet new people and interact with my current network.

Tune in as I unpack my problems, and the solutions I’m trying:

How apps and automated deliveries have replaced human interaction
The link between our social lives and healthspan
What we can learn from the blue zones
The plan to meet more like-minded friends
The concept of the “premium effect” in dating
Being strategic about where and how I meet people
Habit stacking tasks and creating community

How To Change Your Mind, Navigate Divorce, Pivot Your Path, and Date With Intention, with Alessia Scauzillo Feb 21, 2024

Show notes

Sometimes, you have to let go of something good to let in something great. It’s easy to feel stuck in the choices we’ve made — the job we worked hard to get, the relationship we’ve invested in, the city we chose — but life is not linear, and it’s okay to change your mind.

In today’s juicy and vulnerable episode, we’re talking about the magic that can happen when you take the courageous, abundant path, instead of following “what we’re supposed to do.” I’m joined by Alessia Scauzillo, who is the embodiment of following your intuition, embracing the unknown, and pivoting towards the life you really want.

It can feel scary to break free from the traditional path, especially when we’re urged to keep up with the societal norms of chasing high-earning corporate careers and the marriage-house-baby trajectory, but that formula isn’t a reality for many of us, and there are so many exciting ways we can choose to live when we prioritize courage over comfort.

Alessia is the founder of A Sculpt Body, an online fitness platform and community of thousands of women. Alessia left her decade-long career in the finance world to build her fitness company after falling in love with wellness. She’s hosted over 20 sold out events with over 1,000+ women at top venues across Toronto, NYC and Miami. She’s regularly featured in media brands like Breakfast Television, We Met At Acme, and Business Insider as an expert in balanced wellness, navigating divorce and relationships, and creating your entrepreneurial dreams.

Tune in as we chat about:

What Alessia learned through her divorce and the realities of 'conscious uncoupling'
How to know when it’s time to leave... a job, a relationship, a place
Dealing with fear of regret and the unknown
Tapping into your intuition and learning to trust your gut
Dating with intention and confidence
There are still good guys out there!!!
Working out for mental clarity and living with balance
The power of your community during big transitions
How grief helped fuel Alessia's biggest life decisions
