In this episode of Happy & Healthy with Amy, I'm sharing a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of my bestselling book, Thoughts Are Habits Too.

I share my motivation for writing the book,  which is for people struggling with diets and stuck on the weight loss roller coaster.

I reveal the flaws of traditional weight loss programs and my concerns about the popular weight loss drugs that are being prescribed.

Tune in to learn more about my mission to help people achieve lasting weight loss without sacrificing your sense of worth and wellbeing.

Are you caught in a vicious cycle where personal setbacks have left you feeling exhausted and defeated?

My guest today, Holly Bertone, knows exactly how you feel. Having ascended to one of the top ranks at the FBI, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, and then an autoimmune disease that left her chronically fatigued, which ultimately led to her resignation.

That's all before she discovered how to break free from chronic stress and reclaim not only her health but also her life.

In this episode, Holly’s sharing her ultimate comeback framework, which she calls 'ROCKY' to help you create your empowered comeback story starting today.

Has this ever happened? You've been triggered and the next thing you know, you’re in the middle of a heated argument you had no intention of starting...

Or halfway through a pint of Haagen Daas ice cream...

Or perhaps hitting the bottom of a bag of chips…

Despite practicing yoga and meditation and all that work on being present.

Rest assured, there's nothing wrong with you. This is actually just your subconscious mind at work. And what you're experiencing are the defense mechanisms - meant to help keep you safe - simply kicking in.

The root cause? Unresolved conflicts that Paz Guerrero, my guest today, is an expert at uncovering. And she does it with hypnosis, and incredibly powerful tool and healing modality.

So if you want to uncover and identify limiting beliefs, stop emotional eating, and binge eating, heal your wounds from the past, end dysfunctional relationships, and make healthier choices going forward, this is an episode you're going to want to listen to from beginning to end.

When it comes to optimal health, do you have a strategy for how to approach it?

There's a quote by Michael Porter, "The essence of strategy is choosing what not to do."

In this episode, I'm sharing the Essential Eight so you can avoid the overwhelm of all the things you could do for optimal health and focus on the ones that matter most.

Sometimes I actually refer to them as the Magic Eight, and after you hear what they are, I think you'll agree that they are magical.

We're delving into a hot topic: Vegan vs Omnivore Diets.

If you've ever wondered about the health outcomes, environmental impact, and the nitty-gritty scientific backing of each diet, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

In this deep dive, I review and reflect on the new Netflix docuseries, "You Are What You Eat," about a nutrition study at Stanford University involving 22 sets of identical twins.

The make a fairly compelling case for changing from an omnivore to vegan diet - or at least a more plant-based diet which relies far less on industrialized agriculture.

As always, I invite you to keep an open mind and think critically.

Note: Starting in February 2024, this podcast will be releasing new episodes on Wednesdays.

Have you been setting the same New Year's resolutions year after year after year, and you catch yourself thinking, "Why bother?"

I know how you feel. I did the perennial resolutions for a long time.

But I don't do that any more.

In this episode, I'm going to walk you through how to shift from the mindset of New Year's resolution to New Year's evolution.

If you're ready to make 2024 different from past years, if you're ready to finally make your dreams come true, this is an episode you're going to want to listen to from beginning to end.

Do you have some big goals for 2024, and you want to actually achieve your goals this year as opposed to just making the same resolutions over and over again, right?

How about instead of making a New Year's Resolution, we try thinking in terms of a New Year's Evolution?

It starts with nailing your why, so if you haven't listened to my previous episode about nailing your why, listen to that episode first.

In this episode, we're going to be talking about creating your vision and setting your intentions before we then dive into defining your goals.

Are you looking forward to 2024?

If you have some big goals and you want to make sure that 2024 is your favorite year yet, the first thing that you're going to want to do in any goal setting is to get really clear on your why.

When it comes to making your dreams come true, especially if they're health related - for example, you want to lose weight and get in shape - the first step we want to do is nail your compelling why.

To help you with this, here is the "Nail Your Why" portion of the Dare To Dream BIGGER Workshop. It includes some laser coaching with a workshop participant, which is a perfect example of how to apply the Five Whys Method.
