Real talk: I love protein. And you know what? I think all women should love protein, too. With that being said, I know protein has a bad rap, and that's why in this episode of Embrace Your Real I shed some light on why protein is so amazing (+ why we should all be prioritizing it daily). If you are afraid of it, this episode is for you. If you already prioritize protein, this episode will educate you on why you are doing what you are doing (which I think it's so important not just do things but to actually understand WHY you are doing them). Are you ready?!

I've had a lot of people reach out to me saying they struggle to eat intuitively. Every time they try, they end up overindulging. I know many body positive advocates heavily promote intuitive eating and suggest that anything that ISN'T eating intuitive means we are eating restrictive diets. But, I happen to disagree and in this episode of Embrace Your Real, I want to share why I don't believe intuitive eating is for everyone and why I believe in eating mindfully so much more.
