January 08, 2020 Elise Museles Shares Her Own Food Story of Restriction and Healing, The Impact of Food and Mood, and Simple Tips to Maximize the New Year
Today on the podcast we sit down with Elise Museles, a Certified Eating Psychology and Nutrition Expert, creator of the Food Story platform and the very popular blog: Kale & Chocolate. As an author, speaker, health coach, and podcast host, Elise’s mission is to empower women to create a healthier relationship with food and their bodies by changing what’s on their plate – and what’s in their minds.
Elise’s concept of Food Story was born from her personal struggles with food and body image throughout her life. Going on her first diet at age nine, Elise grew to become obsessed with dieting and calorie counting for many years to follow. Even after she found herself working as a successful attorney with the Department of Justice, she still found herself immersed in diet culture.
On this episode, Elise details her own food story, and how she went from a lifetime of dieting to healing her relationship with food and eventually transitioning to a career in health and wellness. We also discuss the concept of food and mood, in a way you might not expect and tips for listeners to make the most out of this new year. We appreciate Elise for sharing her courageous story and can’t wait to hear your thoughts on the episode — Let us know what you think of the episode and tag us on instagram @courageouswellnes.

December 18, 2019 Sand Sisters LA Founders, Tedi and Sonya, Discuss Social Emotional Learning for Tweens and Young Women, and Fighting the Confidence Gap
This week on the podcast we have an episode we know you are going to love -- just in time for the holidays! Today we sit down with the co-founders and sister duo of Sand Sisters Los Angeles, Tedi and Sonya Serge.

Sand Sisters Los Angeles Girl Powerful™ program is a youth empowerment non-profit, designed to give females the socio-emotional learning tools to build a strong sense of self. Sand Sisters mentors predominantly underserved tween girls, ages 8-14, to develop the tools to build a strong sense of self to increase their academic performance, social well-being, and build positive self-esteem. They work to create a foundation that will carry these young women into a thriving and balanced adulthood.

In this conversation with Tedi and Sonya we speak honestly and openly about our childhoods, emotional experiences as tweens, and learn about the important work that they do with adolescent girls. We also learn about events they host for adult women and speak on tools that are applicable to all - regardless of age.

We appreciate Tedi and Sonya for the work they do and opening up to have a vulnerable and honest conversation that we all gain something from.

Also! Courageous Wellness will be off next week for the Christmas holiday, which falls this year on a Wednesday. We will be back with exciting new episodes on Wednesday, January 1st. Topics in January will include: whole 30, food freedom and intuitive eating, high fiber diets, fitness and more!

December 11, 2019 Adriaan Zimmerman, Co-Founder of Ned, on Panic Attacks, Natural Botanical Remedies, and CBD
Today on the podcast we have Adriaan Zimmerman, co-founder of Ned. Ned is a wellness brand that currently specializes in full spectrum Hemp Oil based products. Their hemp oils are rich in CBD and other synergistic hemp compounds which work in our body’s many systems to promote healing and natural vibrant states of being.
After a fast paced life in the boardroom and big cities, Adriaan found himself suffering with panic attacks at key high stress business moments. From there he began a two year journey of travel and self- exploration. This ultimately led him back to a life in Colorado, collaborating with his now business partner Ret, to create a company that focused on all areas of transparent business practices.

Ned sources its full spectrum hemp from a local Colorado farmer, Farmer Curt — and even shares the coordinates on the bottle, so you know exactly where your Hemp is coming from. They have created Ned with a lot of love and their hope is that this natural product will be there first thing you reach for to "help you improve and feel better.” CBD does not get you high, for anyone that may still be wondering, it just provides a natural alternative to chemicals for dealing with pain and anxiety management.

We had a great time chatting with Adriaan and hope you have as much fun listening as we did speaking with him! We are also happy to offer our listeners a discount code for 15% off of NED products for first time buyers. They even offer an entirely female created line for periods called Natural cycles.

December 04, 2019 Lisa Hirsch-Solomon on Kindness in Business, Fitness Inclusivity, and The Studio MDR
Today on the podcast we have founder and CEO of The Studio MDR, Lisa Hirsch-Solomon! Lisa shares her story about transitioning from a successful career in the music industry to building a fitness empire. With her, we discuss a career transition that did not stem from burnout, her deep desire to empower women, the importance of kindness in business, fitness inclusivity and what it takes to start a business.

She also shares great advice that any aspiring entrepreneurs should hear! What touched us most about Lisa is the deep care she feels for her staff and her clients and she also showed us that emotion can be a superpower in business, as opposed to a weakness.
