PAFE-Cast

There are so many common thoughts that hold us back from moving forward.  In life, in weight loss, in our journey to our healthy lifestyle, in a positive mindset.  It’s common to self-sabotage and do a 180 just when we feel like we are getting ahead.  Here are some thoughts to consider when when we encounter these negative thoughts.  Even better, we will look at some of the most common excuses we tell ourselves.  You know, the ones that sound good because we heard them somewhere and it’s an easy story to tell.

3:35 The conflict between fat-shaming, body pride, and the pressure to lose weight because of health

5:47 The value of lifestyle changes

9:00 Why maybe you shouldn’t “accept” and “take responsibility” before moving forward…

12:20 On our reasons we got here in the first place!  Examining the excuses we use on ourselves.

14:50 Why you might want to get the doctor involved

16:00 Take control!

18:35 Focusing on stress

My 12-Week Signature Program is the program that changes and works with everything.  How you eat and how you perceive eating everyday, the   ways you become more active in the ways that are best for you, and how you are driven to stick to a foolproof plan will show you the results   that you have been dreaming about.  You'll lose the belly fat, you'll gain strength, mobility, energy and a more balanced lifestyle.

Sounds to good to be true?  Probably because you've seen all of these magic programs and pills promise the same thing.  The difference here is that it was never a person that helped you through every setback and challenge that came with these promises, and that whatever other   investment wasn't customized to your life and routine.  The PAFE Signature Program, which includes 1:1 coaching, does all of that for you.

The "E" In PAFE stands for Exercise! 

What is the best way to exercise?  Comprehensive.  There are a number of components that should be included in how you exercise.  Exercise and fitness is NOT just cardio, or lifting weights.  Those are both very important, but are still missing some critical components.  These include balance and stability training, flexbility training and NEAT, which will be covered more in another episode. 

We start with defining what each of these critical componenets in a comprehensive fitness plan include.

3:25 Cardio!  We will talk a lot about how to get up and get those active minutes!

14:04 Strength training.  There's a lot going on with strength trainig in regards to methods, types, mediums and what can go wrong.  We examine those together and I explain how I'm able to best help you.

20:20 Balance training.  What is it?  Why is it important?  How to EASILY incorporate this in your workouts.

22:27 Flexibility.  Why is it so important to include this and take the extra time for it?  We may often be stretching wrong, based on how we did as kids in gym class.

25:10  What stretching is supposed to feel like and how to incorporate self-care with it... in order to save time!

Then we conclude by summing up the P,A,F,E series and I'll give a preview as to where we are going next in our PAFE-Cast journey.

My 12-Week Signature Program is the program that changes and works with everything.  How you eat and how you perceive eating everyday, the   ways you become more active in the ways that are best for you, and how you are driven to stick to a foolproof plan will show you the results   that you have been dreaming about.  You'll lose the belly fat, you'll gain strength, mobility, energy and a more balanced lifestyle.

Sounds to good to be true?  Probably because you've seen all of these magic programs and pills promise the same thing.  The difference here is that it was never a person that helped you through every setback and challenge that came with these promises, and that whatever other   investment wasn't customized to your life and routine.  The PAFE Signature Program, which includes 1:1 coaching, does all of that for you.

The F stands simply for food.  Not diet.  In this episode we explore the difference between purchased meal plans and food coaching in a PAFE plan.  There are a BUNCH of considerations to figure out to fully customize this plan, but you will discover why this really is so important for weight loss.  These factors include, but are not limited to, portion control, food selection according to calorie density and your preferences, and the emphasis on not restricting your choices, but rather figuring out HOW you can still include your favorite foods.

Finally we are getting into the meat of what this podcast is all about!

Having the mindset to deal with weight loss and healthy lifestyles is NOT an easy thing, and it's something that everyone struggles about because you have to constantly think and decide differently in order to make your healthy choices.

2:00 Who am I?

4:09 Backstories

Welcome to the first episode of PAFE-Cast!  To start out, I'm getting my bio episode out of the way, so you can learn a little about me and where I'm coming from.  That way, we can get to the good stuff sooner!

I'm Kay, nickname for Karen.  I've been a studio music teacher since I was 15, and I hold a bachelor's and master's in music education.  I own a music store and studio, and I enjoy it a lot, but COVID impacted business in ways that I never saw coming.  

Overall, my passion is working with people, 1:1, to help them with long-term goals, like learning an instrument and playing songs that they have been dreaming about learning.

5:30- When the music business was shut down, I realized that maybe I was meant for something more than just teaching music lessons.  After all, people need their health more than music lessons, so I took the coursework needed to be a health coach with good credientials and I built PAFE. 

12:30 - A quick summary about what happened when I failed at keto. 

14:25- The realism of what it would be like to work with a health coach that isn't model thin.

They say business ownership becomes and addiction, and it has been really fun getting an online health and weight loss coaching business up and running.  Building a program that is going to help people change their lives was even more fun.  I hope you will be the next person to experience this!

My 12-Week Signature Program is the program that changes and works with everything.  How you eat and how you perceive eating everyday, the ways you become more active in the ways that are best for you, and how you are driven to stick to a foolproof plan will show you the results that you have been dreaming about.  You'll lose the belly fat, you'll gain strength, mobility, energy and a more balanced lifestyle.  

Sounds to good to be true?  Probably because you've seen all of these magic programs and pills promise the same thing.  The difference here is that it was never a person that helped you through every setback and challenge that came with these promises, and that whatever other investment wasn't customized to your life and routine.  The PAFE Signature Program, which includes 1:1 coaching, does all of that for you.
