Cheat Code Nutrition

In this episode I break down the 3 reasons I see cycle syncing as being superior to dieting.  I discuss how the mindset of cycle syncing and the language we use while syncing our nutrition is far healthier and motivating than that of dieting.  I also detail why it's more effective at acheiving improved health overall, being that it works directly on the hormone system which impacts every other system in our body.  Lastly, I cover why the end goal of cycle sycning, to acheive hormone balance, is far better for us than the end goal of being skinny.  I invite my listeneners who are motivated and inspired by this episode to join my Balance Challenge.  It's only $28 for 28 days of cycle syncing training.  Learn all the basics we should've learned as teens, from hormones 101 to the art of cycle syncing to biohacking designed specifically for women.

I recorded this episode after my retreat to the jungles of Costa Rica for expansion and purpose.  I came back having shed so many layers of insecurity and with renewed passion to fuel my next coaching course, the Balance Challenge.  This is a 28 day challenge to learn the art of cycle syncing. 

After getting alcohol free, I found cycle syncing, which is supporting the ebb and flow of your hormones with nutrition, exercise and lifestyle.  I found this to be a north star in my healing as it put me back in touch with my body and brain, and allowed me to feel better in my 40s than I ever did in my 30s.  As a woman who wants to empower other women to go alcohol free, balance their hormones and heal years of cellular damage, I created this challenge to share the top strategies I’ve learned over the last 3 years that have me feeling mentally and physically better than ever, at 43! No joke.  I wish I had learned this sooner.   So if you’re interest is peaked, share this with a friend and go to: https://findmyselffree.thrivecart.com/balance/ and sign up for the Balance Challenge together.  There is strength in numbers and who doesn’t want to balance their hormones? It’s only the single biggest thing impacting your health in your forties.  Oh, and  It’s only $28 for 28 days, so you have absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain.  Share this with a friendI can’t wait to meet you there.

This episode I reflect on how I used to celebrate and vacation back when I was drinking, and compare it to the way I reward and treat myself now.  Most people assume alcohol free vacationing and celebrating is boring but I've truly experienced more laughs, more joy, and more adventure than I ever did drinking.  As I head into my 43rd birthday with a trip planned to Costa Rica, it's shaping up to be my best birthday and vacation yet.  Tune in as I share humbling stories of drunk vacations in the past and inspiring stories of growth and transformation.

Today I sit down with Hadley Sorensen.  I first connected with Hadley on Instagram in the sober community because I related to so much of her story.  She is a mom of 3 boys, a lifelong runner, and a writer whose first book will be coming out soon.  We talk about our similiar journeys, how the mindset of an athlete that is conditioned to push their limits can complicate one's relationship with alcohol, how big alcohol has tried to partner with the fitness space, and how gray area drinking is so normalized among moms.  This is a great conversation that you will most definitely relate to, and you don't want to miss!

You can find Hadley on Instagram @hadley_sorensen or on her website where she will be updating us on the status of soon to be released book at: www.hadleysorensen.com

Today's podcast is about confronting the fear that is holding you back from taking a break from alcohol.  Drinking is a comfort seeking ritual and whether you drink to numb your pain or anxiety, or you drink to have fun and connect, the idea of giving those experiences up can feel scary.  I want to encourage you to lean into that fear, follow it and know that all change lives on the other side of that fear.  I want all women to know, it is possible to break free, and it starts with challenging these fears, and getting outside of their comfort zone.

Today's podcast is personal as I share a moment from my lowest low, and how I view my move to cut out alcohol as a liberation.   I reflect on how far I've come, especially when it comes to how I care for myself during the harder moments of motherhood.  I share this to offer inspiration, to paint a picture of a better future that is possible, and to wake up other women who are stuck in a cycle of drinking as. a form of self care.  I want all women to know, it is possible to break free, and it starts with liberate themselves from the beliefs that alcohol is serving them.

Today I explore the similiarites between cutting alcohol and fasting.  I use fasting as a biohacking tool to heal and reset, and I'm blown away by how similiar the mental cravings I experience during a fast are similiar to the mental cravings when learning to cut alcohol.  The same method that I've used to approach changing my thinking around alcohol can also be applied to fasting.  I also share some personal stories of my relationship with food and my body and how alcohol and fasting have played roles in the evolution of how I treat myself today.

Today I explore all of the healing avenues one can tap into after alcohol is out of the way.  Priority number one for most women is hormone balancing.  I go over this and other biohacking strategies to help you heal years of cellular damage.

Today I explore the science of why we think we like alcohol, why despite knowing the science of how bad it is for us, we still crave the taste and the pleasure it provides, temporarily.  I share some personal stories of talks with my sister, and husband, both key challengers to my points, as well as some fun studies highlighting the effects marketing has on our experience with wine.

This week of Dry January is about asking for more.   You've learned how much alcohol is holding you back and perhaps experienced some incredible benefits so far this month.  So what's next?  How do you capitalize on that momentum? And if it was harder than expected, how do you get your actions in alignment with what you really want for yourself moving forward?  I drank 9 times my first Dry January.  It took me learning from that trial and error to get to a place where I was ready for more.  I ended up working with a coach for 4 monts.  Listen as I share more about how a coach can help you materialize those good intentions you have for yourself, lock in your learning and hold you accountable for creating a life you love.
