Have you found yourself slipping back into old thought patterns and limiting beliefs around calories, body image, and the ill-perceived notion that all carbs are bad, while size and the number on the scale matter?

In this episode, host Mary Lee engages with Carrie Lupoli, a board-certified nutritionist and award-winning behavior specialist, to explore the misconceptions surrounding weight, health, and nutrition especially during menopause. Carrie tackles societal norms that prioritize size over well-being, the impact of processed foods, and the myths around carbohydrates. 

These were all misleading and damaging messages that led Carrie down a path of distructive relationships with food, unhealthy body image, and an eating disorder. Her journey paved way to  a successful career in holistic nutrition and a unique approach that balances protein, fats, and carbs for blood sugar stabilization. She also developed the 'SNAP' principle for mindset transformation. 

Carrie has been featured on news outlets including the TODAY Show, ABC, NBC, Fox, News Nation, and more as a leading contributor to nutrition and women's health. She also co-founded PFC3, a health and wellness brand to certify and support  health pros, highlighting her dedication to providing nutrition solutions.
