Michelle and I discussed eating foods that help with mood disorders such as anxiety and depression on today's show. We often talk a lot about balance and not including your favorite foods such as sugar, but, in Michelle's case, for example, moderating those foods and possibly even eliminating, for the time being, has proved considerable dividends in her mood and overall happiness. We gave you specific foods that help with anxiety and the why behind it. Enjoy the show!

On today's show, I was joined by my friend Amy Williams, also known as @absbyamy on Instagram. Amy is a mom of six kids; yes, you read that right, lol, and does not let that get in the way of her fitness goals. She breaks down how she manages six kids under 15 years old, runs her own business, and stays in excellent shape. She gave you practical tips as moms to keep your health and fitness a priority while showing up as an amazing mom. Her story is motivating, inspiring and is such an example of not letting excuses define you!
More about Amy:
Hi! So glad you're here! Let me tell you a little about myself. I was born and raised here in Utah. I grew up in a big family, and developed a love for fitness at an early age. You could find me rollerblading, biking, hiking, running, dancing, tumbling or just playing around.
In school I ran track and did Cheerleading, and in the past few years have completed a handful Century bike rides. Last year I competed in my first bodybuilding competition (something I never DREAMED of doing!) which ended up being one of the hardest, most rewarding things I've ever done. Going through that process taught me so much about my body, and that each of us are capable of anything we set our minds to!

On today's episode, Michelle and I first discussed her recent stretch of anxiety and what she did to pull out of that funk. We then covered the warning signs that you might need to stop dieting. Some call that a diet break; some just call it going back to maintenance to work on health. Either way, we gave you concrete signs both mentally and physically that you might need to pull the plug on dieting. Enjoy the show!

On today's show, I passionately discussed my feelings on the simple idea that we are being divided on issues that never needed to divide us. That big Pharma funds the media, the media funds your fears, your fears fund disease, your disease funds big Pharma. That idea is something that not only got me thinking but made sense to me to bring to a podcast. It's time to start taking care of your actual health and immune system.
