Episode 194: How to Survive an Elimination Diet (Part 2)
Listen In
Summary
If you know me, you know I am not a fan of deprivation for deprivation's sake when it comes to dieting.
I don't think we should be cutting out foods willy nilly, and I certainly don't think we should cut out entire macronutrients.
However the old adage is true: one person's superfood is another person's poison. And sometimes there are certain foods that cause a reaction in our body that prevents us from looking or feeling our best.
And the only way to truly know what those foods are is through an...

Summary
Do you ever feel like everything in your life is coming up roses, but there's that one thing just that one little thing that you can't seem to conquer no matter how hard you try?
And the discomfort of that stuck-ness, of that frustration has you wanting to reach for anything that will give you a nice little dopamine hit: food, social media, alcohol, anything that can stop you from feeling like you want to crawl out of your skin.

Episode 190: Coffee... Friend or Foe?
Listen In
Summary
Sometimes the more you dig into nutrition studies, the more confused you become.

Listen In
Summary

But I know not everyone is like me. Some of us are just trying to put one foot in front of the other and get to a place of even feeling ok on a day-to-day basis. Which is totally fine too!

Listen In
Summary
We're 4 weeks into 2023 and I know when a new year starts we set our eyes on who we want to become.
But we sometimes forget that in order to evolve into the next version of ourselves, we have to let go of the parts of us that don't serve us anymore and that are keeping us stuck.
To be clear, this is not about judging ourselves for past mistakes we made or past versions of ourselves that no longer resonate with us.
