NOURISH by Julie Booher | Formerly Healthy & Happy

If you know me, you know I may be one of the most ANTI “quick-fix” people in the health and wellness space.

I don’t believe in fad diets, dangerous detox programs, juice cleanses or the like.

However, I DO believe that sometimes we need a radical shift in the way we’re operating in our lives — especially when it comes to the way we’re treating our body.

Enter: NOURISH: THE RESET

This 14-day reset program is designed to kick your healthy habits into high gear, so that you can start feeling your best again ASAP.

In this episode, we chat all about:

• who would benefit from doing a 14-day reset
• who should NOT do a reset
• what a safe reset IS and what it is NOT (how this is different from sketchy detoxes/'cleanses' that are promoted by marketers)
• what's included in a body & mind reset
• how to SAFELY and effectively do a mind & body reset

It's SO easy to get caught up in the mindset of "this sucks, everything sucks" when you're ill or injured. It can feel like life is put on hold — like you can't do anything until you're recovered.

In this episode, we discuss my own personal lessons from being sick with pneumonia:

• The most empowering question to ask yourself when you're sick/injured
• How to use your illness/injury to assess what's working in your life/what's not
• Accepting WHAT IS vs. fighting circumstances you can't change
• How to focus on what you CAN do while sick/injured
• The 'resistance' and 'upper limit' theories and how these try to sabotage us to keep us in our comfort zones
• Practical tips & mindset shifts for healing
• And more!

Howdy friends! 

In today's episode, we cover a lot of topics pertaining to self care when you're not feeling your best (physically or emotionally). Here's what we cover: 

• Why it’s counterproductive to shame yourself for your starting (or RE-starting) point
• Focusing on what you CAN do vs. what you CAN’T do
• How to feel your feelings while not getting trapped in the ‘victim’ mindset
• Shifting from always focusing on what we lack/our limitations vs. what’s possible for us
• Separating yourself from your problems to find creative ways to care for yourself
• Letting GOOD ENOUGH be good enough sometimes
• Learning how to say NO to anything that’s not a ‘hell yes’ when your battery is low
• Knowing when it’s healthier to QUIT vs. forcing yourself to continue something
• The RESET I’m doing for my mind, body & spirit because Lawd knows I need it rn

This has been a long time coming, and I'm SO excited to finally share the next evolution of this podcast: NOURISH by Julie Booher.

Think of this episode as a 'housekeeping' episode of sorts, where we discuss: 

• WHY the change away from Healthy & Happy
• How to take leaps of faith, even when you're afraid to (or it doesn't make 'logistical sense')
• The inspiration behind NOURISH and how I came up with the idea
• What to expect from the podcast moving forward

Thanks for growing with the podcast (and me as a human) for all these years! I'm so excited for what's to come :')

This is the FINAL episode of Healthy & Happy (as it stands today), and I'm so excited to end things on a high note with my dear friend and owner of Cultivate Your Space, Michelle Dew.

Michelle is a virtual interior decorator based in Texas, focused on how your space functions and how it makes you feel. Michelle wants your space to be your sanctuary and a source of inspiration—somewhere to breathe in and then to exhale; a place to call home, even if you're on your own.

In this podcast we talk about:

• How I met Michelle (hint: she was our landlord for a few months while we were staying in Texas!)
• How to make over spaces in your home on a small budget 
• How to add more character and "YOU" to your home (whether you own your home or are renting)
• How to optimize your home + systems and routines for optimal functionality 
• How to make your house feel like a HOME — somewhere that feels like a big exhale at the end of a long and stressful day
• Creating sacred spaces / places of respite within your home
• DECLUTTERING!!! I love Michelle's approach to this
• And so much more!

Whether it's a big move, a career/job transition, starting or ending a friendship or relationship... how do you know when it's the right time to make a big life change?

In this episode, Mark and I explore how we recently made a change that didn't make *logistical* sense in some aspects, but it was exactly what our souls needed. 

Follow along as we share the thought process that led to a move away from the familiar, and into the big/scary unknown.

We hope you leave feeling inspired to take risks and live a BIG, bold life!!

When I became a mom, I realized that I was going to need to do things a LOT differently than I had before I was a mom. Everything changed — my routines, schedule, sleep, and the amount of time I had to train/prep food/do all the things that were "easy" pre-kids.

In this episode, we discuss the mindset shift that drastically changed how I prepare for my role as a mother: treating it like a sport. 

Join me as we cover how to optimize your mindset, sleep, hydration, nutrition & fitness as a mom.

Are you struggling in the "in between" — aka the place between where you are now, and where you want your life to go?

Do you see the BIG VISION for your life, but feel discouraged because you're not there yet?

Do you feel like life is a daily grind of keeping your head down, doing what you "should" be doing, but still not seeing results fast enough?

This episode is for you! 

Join me as we discuss how to navigate the "in between," hold the vision for the next level of your life, and ENJOY/find peace in life in the meantime.

Listen: I am NOT a fan of traditional, unsustainable food diets. You know this.

But what I CAN get behind: a MENTAL diet.

People are quick to go on diets when they don't PHYSICALLY feel their best, but how often do we go on a MENTAL diet to ruthlessly eliminate all the negative inputs for our brains when we don't MENTALLY feel our best?

On this podcast, we talk a lot about food consumption. But overall wellness goes beyond what type of food you're consuming — it's the type of media you're consuming, conversations you're having, people you're surrounding yourself with, what you listen to, and how you think on a daily basis.

In this episode, I share a vulnerable story about what I've been going through recently that led me to the point of NEEDING this mental diet. Plus, we go over what the 30-day "mental diet" actually entails.

Would love to hear your thoughts and if you're joining me!

I recorded a podcast titled "Self Care When Life Sucks" a few years ago on this podcast when I was going through a really challenging period of my life. It's one of the most downloaded episodes because if there's one thing we can all relate to — it's that life ain't always rainbows and butterflies.

Now, I am currently going through a deep period of grief after my dad's passing in December, so I wanted to remake this episode to share my updated self-care practices during this extremely difficult time. (Note: This episode is for anyone who's going through a challenging period in their life, not necessarily just grief or loss.)

In this episode, we cover:

• A little bit about my grieving process (and how it will be different than yours/anyone else's)
• How I am taking care of myself emotionally, physically and beyond
• How to show up for someone you love who's grieving 
• And more

If you can relate to this episode, I'm sending you a huge hug. Please know that you are seen, valued and loved. I hope this episode can bring you peace, comfort, and hopefully a little motivation to care for yourself during an extremely challenging time in your life. <3
