  • Not Satisfied? Discovering What You Truly Crave | Ep 55

    Have you ever felt like you were doing everything "right" for your health, but you're still not feeling your best?

    In this episode, I sit down with Errin Smith, also known as @that.health.chick, to discuss the journey of unstuffing our lives from things that don't serve us and finding true health and happiness. 

    Errin shares her personal story of struggling with emotional eating despite being in the health space and how she overcame it by reconnecting with herself and finding balance. She discusses how we can take control of our health through the following:

    ▶︎ Be Present: Tune into what you truly want in the moment to address cravings and emotional eating.

    ▶︎ Find Your Purpose: Reconnect with yourself, nature, and spirituality to discover your true purpose.

    ▶︎ Implement Healthy Processes: Focus on practical health improvements like adequate protein, sleep, hydration, and gut health.

    ▶︎ Practice Patience: Understand that change is gradual and requires consistent, small steps.

    Errin's story is a powerful reminder that health is not just about physical well-being but also about emotional and spiritual health. By reconnecting with ourselves and addressing the root causes of our behaviors, we can find true balance and peace.

      • Break Free From Negative Mental Loops Once And For All | Ep 52

        If you are a woman who has ever gotten stuck in what I like to call a mental loop, this episode is for you!

        What’s a mental loop?

        A mental loop is when we experience a stressful moment in our day-to-day life, and we get stuck on it. We keep thinking about it, ruminating on it, or replaying it and we let it continue to stress us out well after the event took place. 

        If you’re not careful, this can lead to a chronic state of stress, which will negatively impact all areas of your life. 

        In this episode I am going to talk through some very simple and empowering neurology to explain what's happening and how you can take back control when these moments occur. 

        The goal is not to rid your life of all stress, because some amount of stress is actually good for you, but rather to quickly get back into alignment so you can respond rather than react to your environment. 

        Once you understand these concepts and use some tools that I’ll outline, you can feel more calm, harmonious, and in control of your life, your day, your week, and your year, regardless of what comes your way. 

        Enjoy!

      • Be Afraid And Do It Anyway! w/Melanie Hunter | Ep 49

        Fear prevents so many of us from living the life of our dreams.  

        In this episode I sit down with my friend Melanie Hunter as we explore the beauty and the best of relationships, motherhood, taking risks and the power of enhancing our relationships (including our relationship with ourselves).  

        Melanie is a Certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant, Founder of alii Supplement, Breathwork instructor, and mother to three boys. She is a seeker who strives to live life to its fullest. She believes that true health comes when the body, mind, and spirit are in alignment. Her mission is to educate & empower others to take control of their health and to do everything with love. 

        We talk about all the things, from being “just a mom” and why we think of it that way, to the importance of spending time with yourself and getting to know yourself and the effect that that can have on enhancing all of our relationships; to the realities and challenges of actually being brave enough to follow our dreams and follow our heart and what that can actually look like, as well as what we can come up against in the process, and how she pushes through those challenges.

        So grab your favorite drink, pull up a chair or put on your walking shoes and listen to this episode filled with love, growth, bravery, and wellness from the inside out!

      • Small Changes, Big Impact: The Compound Effect of Daily Habits | Ep 48

        Are your habits working FOR you or AGAINST you? 

        Your habits compound over time, and it’s up to you to make sure they’re working in your favor. 

        I know it can seem overwhelming to create a new habit and/or change a bad habit. But you can take small steps and make small, incremental tweaks, and over time those will compound into huge, lasting change.

        We recently read the book Atomic Habits by James Clear in the Best Friends Book Nook (my online book club for women). 

        Normally I share my key takeaways in the book club. But this book is so transformative, I wanted to share the best points with everyone so you can take these and implement them into your life right away.

        So if you’re in a season where it’s tough to find the time to read a book, I’ve got you! Grab a tasty beverage, a notebook, and let’s talk about how you can make small changes that have a huge impact on your life.
