In this episode, I talk with my guest Lisa Fischer about how she let go of diet rules and found a way to feel good in her body again. 

Lisa shares how intermittent fasting, better sleep, eating whole foods, and cutting sugar helped her get her energy back and feel stronger through menopause and beyond. 

We chat about hormones, cortisol, cravings, and why eating more (not less) actually helped her. 

Lisa has a warm, down-to-earth way of communicating and inspiring you to be yourself, break free from diet culture, and find a way of eating that actually supports your body and your life.

Jodie grew up eating relatively healthy foods. 

But it was later in life, when she started having health issues, that she was diagnosed with celiac disease.

She changed her diet significantly, and started to study nutrition and especially how sugar affects the liver.

In this episode, Jodie explains about different types of sugar, and how the fructose molecule in sugar can lead to a fatty liver, or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)*.

* The new term for NAFLD is MASLD (Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatotic Liver Disease). 

Find Jodie here.

Reverend Emmanuel is an empath. That means that he's very sensitive, and feels everything around him.

From a young age, he used processed foods and candy bars to shield him from pain and toxic energy.

In his mid-30s, he started to heal himself. He learned to start feeling and to deal with his feelings.

He cleaned sugar out of his diet and healed his microbiome. He started to listen to his body. 

Because, as Emmanuel says, the body doesn't lie. 

Now he no longer experiences pain, so he doesn't need to numb it. 

Listen to what Emmanuel eats now, and how he got toxicity out of his and his family's life.

When she was younger, Jennifer suffered terribly from pain, inflammation, lack of energy, bloating, plus a ton of other symptoms.

But she was always told that she was "healthy".

Gluten was not talked about 15-20 years ago, so Jennifer had to keep pushing to get to the root cause of her symptoms.

Then one doctor sent Jennifer to a dietitian who told her that she shouldn't eat gluten. 

And that was the beginning of a whole new voyage of discovery!

Listen to Jennifer's inspiring story of how her life was transformed when she cut processed foods that contain gluten and sugar.

Find Jennifer here.
