- Episode 93: How to Find Motivation
In this week's episode, your hosts dive into the hot topic of motivation. Many people struggle to start, or continue, their health and fitness journeys and blame it on a lack of motivation. The reality is that no one is motivated all of the time, but those who succeed have found a way to keep moving forward anyway. How do they do it?
Kylie and Kara have the answers for you as they dive into the issues behind relying on motivation, how the process of motivation, action, and results really works, and how you can get around slumps and push through periods where your motivation is lacking.

37 min - Episode 90: Gwyneth Paltrow, Ozempic, and Wellness Culture: Context Matters
This week, Kylie and Kara are diving into some hot, trending topics in the health and wellness world.
First, your hosts address the recent viral videos of Gwyneth Paltrow's "wellness routine," which includes clips from a recent podcast she was interviewed on. They dive into why it is so important to do your research and understand context of the information you're seeing online, and the responsibility wellness influencers have to provide context as well.
Next, they cover the current Ozempic craze. Ozempic is intended to treat Type 2 Diabetes, but is currently gaining popularity and being prescribed off-label for weight loss. Kylie and Kara break down how the drug (and others like it) works, what and who it's intended for / can be beneficial for, the side-effects, and they also present some of the potential long-term issues with using the drug specifically for weight-loss.
Both of these conversations are a reminder that context is key in every scenario, and that what works for one person is not what should be utilized for everyone. It is also a reminder to always prioritize your health and remember that quick fixes usually come with consequences, and a not-so-quick recovery process.

41 min - Episode 85: Building Self-Trust with Brooke Desch
This week, Kylie and Kara welcome a very special guest to the podcast -- their good friend, Brooke Desch. Brooke is an online health and fitness coach and an assistant coach for Lean Cutz Fitness.
Brooke joins your hosts for an important and impactful conversation regarding self-trust, and how showing up for yourself and honoring your commitments has more of a positive impact on your confidence than your appearance does. They share how starting a fitness journey is often the first step to building self-trust, and how this bleeds into all of the other areas of your life from your career to partnerships to friendships.They also discuss how trusting yourself also means trusting the decisions you make, such as hiring a coach and therefore, putting your trust into them. Brooke shares an example from her last bodybuilding prep reverse where things were difficult for her as she went through many hormonal changes (and weight gain as a result) but had to trust when her coach wanted her to "do less" in order to make things right.Throughout this episode, there is a ton of wisdom applicable for any listener on creating not only a body, but a life you're proud of!Follow the NYQF Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/notyourquickfixpodcast/Connect with Brooke:
