Welcome back to hearing more from my Soulful Story guest, Jamie Cembrola! Jamie is an Integrative Nutrition Coach, Certified Weight Loss and Fitness Nutrition Specialist and former “dieter"

Episode 25 is 30 minutes long hearing Jamie's story through yo-yo dieting and exercising. Our stories are so powerful and create connection to help us feel less alone. I hope you could connect with Jamie as she courageously shared her story.

In today's episode, part 2 with Jamie, we explore her 4 philosophies for living a healthy & FREE life to finally start feeling like your best self.

I love these words by Jamie,

"I want to help others like myself break the dieting cycle forever. I want to help them stop depriving themselves and start filling themselves up. To stop counting, punishing, overthinking, obsessing and feeling guilty and to start feeling, celebrating, enjoying, simplifying and bringing more onto their plates — and life. I want to help people stop dieting and start eating in a way that makes them feel good.

Because when you feel good, you do good. And when you do good, you break the unhealthy habits that can lead to weight gain, depression/anxiety, guilt, unhealthy obsessions, digestive disorders, skin issues, sleep disruptions and more.

Let me teach you how to eat."

For Part 1 of breaking the yo-yo dieting cycle I have guest Jamie Cembrola from @conveniently_healthy to share her Soulful Story. Jamie is a certified Integrative Health Coach, Weight Loss Specialist, Personal Trainer, and more. Like most of us, she has struggled with trying all the fad diets and trends, pressure to restrict herself, and do intense workouts for over 10 years.

Through pregnancy Jamie finally decided to STOP the pressure she would put on herself through diet and exercise and START listening to her body.

Part 1 with Jamie is her story. Our stories are so powerful and create connection to help us feel less alone. Our hope is that through Jamie's vulnerability she can connect with one person. If that person is you, please reach out and let us know. 

In part 2 with Jamie we explore her 4 Philosophies for living a healthy & FREE life to finally start feeling like your best self. Stay tuned!

In episode 24, Juls is discussing the chains of our past that hold us down from living our present.

We have to move forward. We have to let go of the past and stop dying with what is behind us.

Breaking free is HARD, it is not easy.

These chains are heavy and it takes strength to get them off.

It takes work.

Juls provides her listeners with 3 steps / journaling + visualizing prompts to help us do the work to move forward and break free.

"You are not your past.

You are not defined by your past.

You are who you choose to be today.

You are who you choose to become." -Juls

"Let go of your past, accept your present, and create your future." - Mindset Creator

Happy Father's Day to all! I am so excited to have my own father on the show! We had so much fun recording this together, as you will hear with all our laughter! Throughout my life, my dad has told me gold nuggets of wisdom that I always find myself repeating or passing on to my friends. He is very wise and offers great advice I think the world could benefit from. I hope you enjoy hearing from my wise, goofy, and awesome DAD.

For almost 40 years, my dad has been a business lawyer advising companies of all size, as well as many not-for-profit and civic organizations. He also taught at Georgetown Law School for over 10 years. I understand he tells law students to treat their families as if they are his most important client, and know that he cherishes the time he spent supporting, coaching, and having fun + annoying me, my brother, and two sisters. He tells me that he is happy to help & annoy others too. Just another bad dad joke :)

Hope you love this episode as much as me! Reach out to me on Instagram @soulfuljuls if you will be pocketing any of my dads wisdom and which is your favorite! Can't wait to hear from you!!

"Fear is a good enough reason to do anything. Everything you want is on the other side of fear. We can do hard things whether we fear them or not." -Sara Vavrina

Topics we discuss:

- Social Life: how to make new friends & put yourself out there.

- Academics: is there a balance between school & fun?

- Dating: how do you date in college? 

- Self Worth: WE GOTTA KNOW THIS.

Sara Vavrina is a recent graduate of Auburn University. Since she is fresh our of her college years I thought she would be perfect to bring on the show to hear her perspective on college and provide advice to those just entering or in the midst of the beautiful mess. We both discovered a lot about ourselves during this time. While it's full of laughter and amazing memories, it is also easy to get lost & lose yourself. Here is some advice we learned in hopes to help others a bit sooner on their journey.

Please share this episode with anyone you know that is about to enter college or in the midst of it! We hope to encourage ONE person. If that's you, let us know through a message on instagram! If you are up for it, please share it to your story so we can continue to spread Sara's wisdom to all!

If you have any questions, comments, or need advice Sara would love to be a friend to you! Contact her at [email protected]

REST.

The four letter word so many of us hate. Why?

Makes us feel like we aren't productive? Aren't reaching our goals?

Remember, you have to recharge too!!!

Someone asked me once, "what day do you do nothing? No alarm set. No plans. Just go with the flow?"

Topics discussed:

- Importance of REST

- God rested!!! Bible passage

- 6 Ways to Rest

- Things out of our control

- Preparation

Sometimes it is perfectly okay and necessary to shut down, kickback, and do nothing!!

Thank you!

This episode is made as something you can listen to over and over. It is a little reminder! We all need a reminder and nudge once in awhile when we are having off or heavy days, feeling uncertain, overwhelmed with doubt, or just can't get out of a funk. I hope this reminder helps you to focus on the things that matter and can make you feel a little better.

Remember, you are never alone.

Always here for you! Please send this to a friend, coworker, or your crush incase they need a reminder too. Lets keep spreading love!

When I am feeling off, it helps me to get out of my head and into my body. Here is a link to my YouTube Channel so you can move that energy around a little bit! 5-60 minute videos for you :) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUxjM1JsSNn_QMwN821rx6A

With love, Juls

Think of a view you have that you have labeled right. Or better than someone else... have one?

That is your ego. The dictionary definition of ego is, "a person's sense of self-esteem or self-importance."

Listen to this podcast to learn more about your egotistical ways of living and how to shed that way of thinking and open yourself up to love.

Get curious over judgmental!
