    Owner of Grow Well Coaching, Erin Tennant brings some truth bombs in this episode! As a weight loss and mindset coach for wellness, she uses the tools and strategies that helped you los 130 lbs and MAINTAIN it without being crazy restricted or spending hours in the gym. She will help you question your beliefs and habits and help you create a whole new perspective about yourself with her "3 Bs" approach. 

    Some of my favorite tips she share were around conscious eating:

    2. Eat consistently.

    3. Increase protein or whatever your goal may be - veggies? Water?

    4. Give yourself permission to eat for physical AND emotional hunger

    5. Move your body everyday out of self care.

  • 47. If you worry about what other people think, make THIS shift.

    "I wish I didn't care so much about what other people thought." If you find yourself saying this out loud or just to yourself, listen in. This episode dives into why it's ok if others don't like you or agree with you or understand you. 

    You don't have to put a disclaimer on your decisions. You don't have to validate yourself to someone who you wouldn't trade places with. 

    Their opinion will not dim your light!

  • 46. Lesson I've Learned Building an Online Business as a Working Mom

    Ever thought, "I just want something for ME." "I'd love to contribute more financially." "I have this idea/experience that I want to share that I feel like could really help people." 

    I'm with you! I started my online business about 6 years ago with a toddler and a newborn. I was sick of not having anything for ME and being consumed with my day job as an RN and motherhood. I knew nothing about business, but figured I'd give it a shot. I've learned A LOT on the way and share these lessons with you in this episode. 

    Take them with you as you build a business or even in life to help you live more authentically and in alignment with who you truly are.

  • 45. Bite Size Tip: How to just make the damn decision.

    A quickie tip for my indecisive friends! 

    Are you the one who inevitably says, "Doesn't matter to me!" when asked where you want to go eat, when it fact, it DOES matter to you and you DO have a suggestion? 

    Or the person who asks every coworker, neighbor, friend, and family member what decision THEY would make in your situation? 

    I was there too. Listen in for the strategy that helped get off the fence sooner, make the damn decision, be ok with it, and start taking steps forward in my life. 

    Let me know if this helps!

  • 44. Body Positivity Talk

    This may not be what you expect when you hear body positivity. I'm not here to tell you to love your body no matter what. I will however share how I've learned to like my body more and yes, even love it at times. For me, my biggest step wasn't saying I love my body, it was not criticizing it every time I walked by a mirror.

  • 43. How I'm getting my shit back together after losing it for a while

    There are so many things I want to do but I have no idea where to start. There are a million things stacked on my plate; a million people, places, and things fighting for my attention. I've lost my groove and I'm a huge proponent of embracing different seasons of life, HOWEVER, I refuse to get stuck in the suck. I also won't continually ignore my own basic needs.

    In this episode I'm sharing what I'm doing RIGHT NOW, REAL TIME to get myself back into the habits that I know help me do more than just survive the day. I'm on a mission to do more than that and this is how. 


    If you have a minute - I PROMISE it will only take a minute, could you wonder you pretty little buns over to the Review section of where you're listening and leave a rating and review if any of this hits home for you? It will help this get out to more moms who might be suffering silently and need us to help her feel less alone!

  • 42. Why I broke up with my Fitness Tracker

    Does that little piece of tech you wear on your wrist give you anxiety? What kinds of feelings come up when you see how many steps you have/ or haven't taken, or how many calories you burn in a workout? 

    In this episode, I share why I stopped wearing one for at least a year, what it helped me realize and why I started wearing one again. Listen in if you want to break up with yours and feel more freedom around your fitness.

    Takeaways:

    1. Detach yourself from the outcome! YOU are not the numbers you see ANYWHERE. How are you showing up?

    2. Get clear on what your expectations are? Are they realistic?How will you feel if you don't meet them? Lower the bar, my friend.

    3. Get clear on the why behind the what. How do you want to feel? Why is that important to you?
