  • 34. Thriving with Diabetes on a Plant Based Diet with Author Lynne Bowman

    In this interview with author of Brownies for Breakfast, Lynne Parmiter Bowman, we talk about transitioning into a plant based diet, how you can still eat dessert, and thriving with diabetes. When Lynne was diagnosed with gestational diabetes during her pregnancy, she knew she had to change the way she ate. Her new lifestyle meant creating foods without sugar, eating a whole foods plant based diet, and diving in head first to making dinner time a sacred time for herself and her family. She knows how important food can be for health and creating habits for the whole family. That is why she created her most recent cookbook, to support diabetics and those who love them. You will find recipes that are gluten free, plant based, sugar free, and dairy free for the whole family. She radiates beauty inside and out, and it is all due to her lifestyle.

  • 33. Investing in Your Health
    Turning on the tough-love coaching mode, Natalie talks about how investing in your health can be scary at first, but the long term benefits are worth every penny. She speaks on how investing in your health is exactly that, an investment, just like a 401k or a property. The long term results keep coming, while the quick fix and instant gratification is nonexistent. Ask yourself the questions, do you consider health a luxury or a priority, and what will it cost you to stay where you are now?

So often we feel like the only way to make progress is to set lofty goals and demolish them with determination and motivation everyday. That is far from the truth, the best progress is made through imperfect action. Facebook.com/groups/provingitplantbased

  • 31. Brain Based Wellness With Elisabeth Kristof
    In this episode, I sit down and talk with Elisabeth Kristof, brain based wellness expert on how she healed herself and her clients from trauma, disordered eating, and the tools she uses on a daily basis to tap into her own wellness practice. She uses applied neurology, a method that puts the brain and nervous system at the center of your health. Elisabeth shares with us her own experience when it comes to using food as a comfort and coping mechanism, and how she is dealt with patterns and triggers when it comes to this behavior. We talk about the impact that stress can have on the body and how it effects our brain and overall wellbeing. Change takes time, but using applied neurology, we can rewire our brains and unwanted behaviors.

    In this episode we talk mindset shifts and how to get out of the vicious cycle of emotional eating. There are underlying reasons behind our habits and relationships when it comes to eating and food. Food can be used as a tool for coping with emotions, and although a hard habit to break, there are solutions to having this mindset. We break down the reasons behind stress eating and what you can start to practice today to changing those feelings of guilt, shame, and impulse decisions when it comes to food.
