This

week we are talking to Amy Monson

Amy was

born and raised in a small farming community in rural Minnesota.  After 18 years of that, she wanted to see the

world, so she joined the MN Army National Guard.  She sure did see the world; she ended up with

a 20-year career and three over-seas deployments: Kosovo 2003-04, Iraq 2005-07,

and Afghanistan 2011-12.  Believe it or

not, Afghanistan was where she found her interest in Agriculture and decided to

go back to school.  She received her BS

in General Agriculture with a minor in AG Education from North Dakota State

University in 2015.  She found out she

really enjoyed school, so she thought it would be a great idea to continue, and

she applied to Graduate School. She graduated in 2017 with a Master’s Degree in

Education. 

She was an

Agriculture teacher in the public education system for less than a year when

she decided that was not a place, she wanted to be long term.  So she quit, staying at home with her three

kids.

In June of

2018, she retired from the MN Army National Guard after a 20-year career.  This was very difficult for her, but it was

time to move on to her next chapter in life.

She and her

husband adopted three kids in December of 2015. They are great kids but have

some special needs.  She started

researching the KETO Lifestyle for herself and found the great benefits it

offered not only her but also the kids.  She

is very passionate about the Keto Lifestyle, which is why she became a

Certified Ketogenic Living Coach so she could help others achieve their goals

using this lifestyle.

She

struggled with her weight and mood most of my adult life.  She has tried it all…counting points, drinking

shakes, magic pills, even lasers that claim to melt your fat away in just

minutes a day.  One thing after another,

she was chasing after something that could have worked, but it was not a

sustainable lifestyle by any means.  At her

heaviest, she was 202 pounds on a frame that was only 5′ 8″.

 She was miserable in her own body, with

no hope in sight.  This is the point in

the story where she is supposed to tell you how she found Keto, and her life

changed, but that is not the case.  She

instead got deployed to Iraq for what turned into 22 very long months.  When she was there, she was able to find running

and used it to reduce stress.  Well, it

reduced her weight by 30 pounds too! 

After returning home, life hit her again, and all the weight crept back on little by little.  She still went to the gym, with no weight loss.  She thought she was eating healthy, but fell of the wagon over and over.  Then, she found Keto and started researching how and why it worked. She got a coach, and the weight just started coming off, and she felt like a million bucks!  She was happy with her progress and couldn’t wait to tell anyone, and everyone that would listen to her new found “miracle”!

This week we are talking to Laura Tetz, Laura is a Certified Health Coach, Practitioner of NLP, Time Line® Therapy and Registered Hypnotherapist. After a lifetime of food and diet worries, she finally discovered why every attempt to “get healthy” or “lose the weight for good” was not only getting harder and harder but actually was the cause of her overeating and emotional eating. Today, her passion is to liberate women from the emotional weight of believing they have failed at dieting and cannot control themselves around food and guide women to find authentic health, happiness, and comfort in their own body – without the obsession. Laura lives near Vancouver, BC and serves clients all over the world. When she’s not busy dismantling diet culture she enjoys yoga, motocross, and a good waffle cone.

Significant Quotes:

* “I was a little girl and a woman on a mission” [02:51]* “For many many years, it (the scale) was a little tool of oppression on my bathroom floor” [06:58]* “Thirty years… that is somewhere around the average amount of time a woman will spend dieting in her life” [15:25]* “45% of adults feel guilty for eating foods that they like” [23:54]
