On today’s episode, we have a very special guest and past client of mine, Jaclyn Espinosa.    Jaclyn played sports growing up and always considered herself competitive.    As a Crossfit coach and athlete, she was concerned that she wasn’t properly fueling her body.   She was always crash dieting for her upcoming vacation or event, and then re-bounding right back - feeling guilty for when she “cheated.”   Throughout our time together, Jaclyn’s mindset completely transformed as she started to listen to her body and give it the fuel it needed.    With this mindful eating approach, Jaclyn was also able to see positive changes in her body composition!   I know y’all will love the energy she brings to this episode (and really, any of her interactions!), as well as the story she shares about her own journey in health and fitness.

How Dozens of My Clients Build Confidence in Their Bodies & Minds Using the SFL Method   I developed the (S)trength (F)or (L)ife Method because I was you.   A few years ago, I spent most days worrying about food and exercise.   How much more coffee can I drink to subside my hunger?   How many miles do I need to run today to burn off the cookies?   How can I spend more time outside the house to avoid overeating?   I dreaded my workouts. I relied on coffee for my every move. I was tired of the guilt I felt around occasionally “indulging” in my favorite foods.   And no matter how much I restricted my calories..   Or how much cardio I did…   I still hated my body.   I thought...    “If I could just lose that last 10 pounds.”    “If I could just workout because I enjoyed it.”   “If I could finally find peace and confidence within my body.”   I knew there had to be a different way.    Because what I was doing was unsustainable…   And honestly, miserable.   So I hired my first 1:1 coach.    I finally figured out how to move my body in a way that I enjoyed (without running tons of miles), while still enjoying my favorite foods and building a body I loved.   Now for the best part…   In today's episode, I'm sharing how dozens of women I work with experience this exact same transformation among their bodies and their minds!   Let's get to work :)   P.S - Join the SFL waitlist opening on Thursday, January 20th - https://bit.ly/SFLMethodWaitlist

Nutrition doesn’t have to be that complicated.   But I completely understand how it might seem that way.   There is so much conflicting info out there in the industry, and I don’t blame you for getting frustrated.    In today’s episode, we’ll dive into the 5 tips I recommend to keep your nutrition simple so that you can make strides every day towards your healthy lifestyle!

This isn’t your “typical” transformation story. I’m happier, more confident, and more in love with my body now, even with an additional 30lbs. But it took me a long while to get there. And today, I want to share part of my story with you. When I got to college in 2011, I knew I had to do something to “stay active.” Not so I could be healthy.. But so I could be skinny like the women I pinned on my Pinterest. I became obsessed with running. I only ate “healthy foods.” I cut out carbs. And it worked. I weighed 106 pounds. But... I still hated the body I saw when I looked in the mirror. Tune into today’s episode to learn more about my journey, how I fell in love with my body and ultimately, led me here to you!
