July 12, 2023 #72 The True Cost of Perfectionism and Neglecting Self-Care
Perfectionist traits are often praised and awarded in today's society. Hard work, independence, no rest, grinding, striving for the next raise or promotion are all awarded. Don't get me wrong, I believe in working hard for what you want in life, but at what cost? Is your health worth it? Is your ability to be present with your kids worth it? Is your brain health worth it?

July 03, 2023 #69 How to Empower Yourself and Get Results in Your Health and Fitness Journey with Guest, Rita Jayne Trotter
If you've struggled in your health and fitness diet or you've felt frustrated by failed diets or relying on willpower, this episode dives into how you can flip the script in your life and get the results you want.
I have the pleasure of speaking with Rita Jayne Trotter.
Rita is a women's weight loss and health expert who's passion, work and philosophies focus on joy factor, on self-acceptance, physical and emotional cohesion and authentic wellness. Her foundation in health comes from being 70lbs over weight, and understanding that the old adage "move more eat less" was not one that focused on the root cause of her own, and other women's weight problems. Anyone who knows Rita knows that she doesn't support diets of any kind. It may seem like an anomaly coming from a health and fitness coach in the times that we're living in, but all she's ever promoted is simply conscious eating. And yet, delivered lifetime results for herself and her clients. She's an unapologetic vocal champion of using our common sense and un-complicating the act of eating. The idea is to empower you to follow a healthy lifestyle as a way of life and not just when you are on a diet. Her approach is to find your body-fit happy place, not to desensitize you or kill you with a set of bone-breaking exercises. Once you learn that weight loss is very much possible without feeling overwhelmed and enjoying food freedom, there's no turning back.

(00:24) Rita's journey of health
(04:18) Importance of simplicity to get results
(06:45) Why move more, eat less alone does not work and how to gain a deeper understanding of ourselves.
(12:44) How to have self-acceptance
(17:48) Conscious eating
(25:20) A story of health and fitness success
