The Art of Pre-Selling

Nick is a Licensed Acupuncturist & Functional Medicine Specialist who has helped thousands of people overcome their subconscious blocks, improve their financial health, better their daily lives, and move past old traumas.

Functional medicine treats the patient with an alternative approach through several methods.

According to him, when we learn how to move past those traumas and bad experiences and how to cope with their effects, we begin to improve instantly.

You will also learn how these emotions that are stuck in the body always find a way to manifest themselves. When we notice symptoms like chronic fatigue, headaches, or muscle tension, and don't seem to find a clinical solution, Nick explains that they might be emotional signs that something was not processed right.

Alicia Jones is a Certified Personal Trainer and Fitness & Exercise expert. She has over 17 years of experience helping women over 50 to feel better, exercise properly, and live with more confidence and energy. She has various programs that offer different workouts, several strength training tips, and a set of strategies to help with weight loss.

In this episode, Amber welcomes Dr. Julie Foucher to The Wellness Revolution podcast. Dr. Julie shares relevant tips for everyone, specifically women over 40, wanting to take better care of their health. When we talk about optimal health, there are four aspects that we need to pay attention to every day: nutrition, exercise, sleep quality, and stress. These are super important factors for someone trying to lose weight as well.

However, trying to be perfect with these four pillars can prevent you from getting the fifth aspect right: emotional health. If we stress too much about optimizing our health, we end up doing the exact opposite.

You will also learn everything about Wild Health, the company Dr. Julie works for. She explains that every client that seeks Wild Health is designated an individual doctor who will dive into each individual's history, lifestyle, and weaknesses to treat them properly. Dr. Julie also shares the main points that women over 40 need to focus on when it comes to taking better care of their health and optimizing their wellness.

She also discusses the common pitfalls that high-achieving women face when it comes to their body image and confidence.

We all know that humans tend to have this all-or-nothing mentality. Every challenge has to be done perfectly; otherwise, it is all ruined. Well, what if it doesn't have to be this way? What if we could approach challenges differently? That is what Amber will answer today.

When we attack challenges differently, we tend to create lasting results. The same thing happens with weight loss goals: perfection doesn't work, but consistency does. Tune in to this episode and learn everything about how to approach challenges properly and create results along the way.

Do you find yourself constantly thinking about what you should and shouldn't eat? Do you feel guilty or ashamed after indulging in your favorite foods? If so, you may have a poor relationship with food. In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Amber explores the signs of a poor food relationship and how to heal it through mindful eating.

One of the biggest signs of a poor relationship with food is the belief in a "good" and "bad" food list. This mentality can lead to a constant internal dialogue of restriction and guilt. However, food is neutral and should not be demonized. By adopting the mantra of "I'm a grown-ass woman, there are no good or bad foods," you can take back your power and make mindful decisions about what you eat.

Healing your relationship with food is the key to consistency and achieving your health and wellness goals. According to Amber, 95% of the time, the reason why women cannot stay consistent with their health and wellness goals is because of their relationship with food.

One of the key takeaways from this episode is the importance of adopting a mindset of self-empowerment when it comes to food. Instead of feeling restricted and deprived, remind yourself that you can make your own food choices. This can help decrease the urge to overindulge and lead to a more balanced approach to eating.

Quote from the episode:

"Being able to taste everything, but binge on nothing. That's the ultimate goal of where we wanna get you. Let go of the all-or-nothing mentality and mindfully indulge in what you crave. Healing your relationship with food is the key to creating a sustainable healthy lifestyle." -Amber Shaw

Do you want to learn how to use food as medicine and heal from the inside out? Look no further than this episode of The Wellness Revolution podcast with host Amber Shaw and special guest Elissa Goodman, a cleanse expert and best-selling author.

Elissa's journey began with a low white blood cell count as a child, leading to constant sickness and a reliance on sugar and caffeine for energy. After moving to New York and climbing the corporate ladder, she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma at the age of 32. Her husband was diagnosed with cancer at 43 and lost his battle a year and a half later. Elissa decided it was time to take her health more seriously and became an Integrative Holistic Nutritionist. This wake-up call led Elissa to therapy, self-help books, yoga, juicing, and other alternative healing methods.

Elissa's story is a testament to the power of using food as medicine and taking control of your health. She emphasizes the importance of simple shifts in habits rather than focusing on outcomes. Elissa shares her expert insight on the power of juicing, intermittent fasting, and cellular hydration. According to Elissa, juicing is a great way to quickly and easily get essential nutrients into your bloodstream and cells.

Elissa and Amber also discuss the importance of paying attention to added sugars, reducing inflammatory foods, incorporating whole foods into your diet, and reducing processed foods. Elissa's approach to health and wellness goes beyond just nutrition. She takes a holistic approach, looking at all aspects of her clients' lives to find the root cause of their health issues.

Elissa's latest book talks more in-depth about her battle with cancer and her story. Check the link below.
