These lessons take us out of pain and into purpose and are responsible for creating change in our lives. Long story short: these lessons are like teachers. When we take the time to learn, we become true-life students.

You will also learn how to shift your energy, quit the victim mentality, and regain control of your life for good. You might question the reasons why you have to go through such an experience, but when you start to understand that there's a reason for it, there's only one question worth having: "What can I learn from this?"

• Learn all the steps to get on a higher vibration and access your higher self.

Diet culture preaches that our confidence relies only on aesthetics, body shape, and appearance. Losing weight and looking a certain way is almost mandatory for women - especially in the fitness industry. Today's guest knows all about this sort of thing: the diets, the anxiety, and what it is like to be a female competitor in an industry ruled by men.

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Amber has a very profound discussion with Felicia Romero. Felicia is a fitness & business mentor and former competitor. She shares her journey from being a fitness icon and on magazine covers to being an entrepreneur and business coach.

The fitness industry can be cruel to women competing in shows, and it was no different with her. She explains how she overcame these self-image issues, shifted her mentality for good, and created a new version of herself - one she finally loves. Tune in!

Aside from sustainable weight loss, nutrition tips, and exercise, you know this podcast is all about spirituality and self-development too, right? It's super beneficial to work on ourselves from a spiritual perspective to reach our goals, change our habits, and achieve whatever we want in life.

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Amber talks about a topic that is very much in evidence lately: manifestation. We all want to do it, but we might not know how. Amber shares practical tips that work for her to manifest whatever goal you have. Although getting quiet and trying to visualize the outcome are crucial parts of the process, there is more to it: Amber highlights the importance of allowing your body to feel the feeling and getting really specific on what you are trying to manifest.

In addition, it can be helpful to identify your why. Knowing why you want the thing can be effective and put you in the right direction. But don't forget: there is no point in manifesting if you don't take action. Tune in!

When it comes to sustainable weight loss, it is helpful to see your eating habits as a lifestyle, not a diet. When we stop restricting ourselves and start eating more intuitively, we break free from the diet mentality and find balance. Balance is what Amber's guest came to talk about today.

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Amber welcomes Erin Washington. Erin is a lifestyle blogger and author who has struggled with body image issues for most of her life. Erin talks about her alcohol abuse, the beginning of her so-called treatment, her fight with bulimia, and all the coping mechanisms that helped her overcome these critical conditions. Through her new book called "From Pain to Purpose", Erin has been helping women of all ages to deal with the same problems.

Erin details her writing process, highlighting that the vulnerability with which she wrote the chapters really helped other women to resonate with her story. And that is just the beginning: the book is full of tactical strategies to help people overcome the same problems. Tune in to learn more!

A calm and quiet morning routine can really change your day and, eventually, your whole world. When we wake up at our own pace, focus on activities that regulate our nervous system, and enjoy the first hours of our day with a calm mind, we tend to be more productive and efficient throughout the day. These are science-backed benefits!

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Amber shares with us her morning routine and how she has been able to go about her day with much more stillness ever since she implemented a few little new habits. Do you also want to change the way you show up? Start small: try to wake up early, journal, meditate, and think of things you are grateful for - and most importantly, sit with the feeling for a while. If an hour feels too much, try 10 minutes and go from there.

It's important to know that this only works if you have a good nighttime routine. How we wake up depends heavily on how we sleep the night prior, right? So grab a pen and paper, write down all of the tips Amber is sharing today, and be ready to have more energy to live your life.

You have probably heard the saying "Food is Medicine" and that couldn't be more true. What you put on your plate and into your body has the power to fuel your cells with what you need to feel your best. The opposite is true as well, and some foods can have us feeling sluggish and inflamed. Now let's be clear, the purpose of this conversation isn't to cause fear surrounding certain foods and have you thinking "Oh no, now I can't eat THAT too?!" We never want to label any food as "bad", but the truth is that different foods do different things in our bodies, and the choices we make will greatly influence how we feel and look. Anais Goldberg has a beautiful way of breaking this concept down for us and shares her journey of being on the diet train for so many years, and the transformation that took place when she realized how to eliminate the stress around food and use it as medicine.

Anais Goldberg is the Founder of Cook Intuitively with Anais, which is a holistic approach to wellness driven by her belief that "the road to wellness starts in your kitchen." After birthing 3 children in a 20 month span, Anais found herself having a hard time recovering and suffered from a long list of symptoms that she later learned were related to inflammation. Once she learned how to eat to combat inflammation, everything changed. Using flavorful combinations of food from her heritage combined with her passion for cooking, Anais teaches others how to build delicious, quick, and stress-free meals. As a busy mama, you know how valuable that is.

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Anais shares how she was able to reduce symptoms of her autoimmune disease by learning which foods to eat and which to avoid in order to avoid inflammation. She also explains what it means to eat for radiant and youthful skin, and how much younger she feels since making this lifestyle shift. Anais also understands that sometimes we just want to eat a big bowl of pasta or have a dessert, and that is totally okay. It is your mindset and what you do after that matters. Tune in for more!

One thing that so many of us have learned from diet culture is that we have to be perfect in our nutrition and exercise in order to get the results we want. What usually ends up resulting from this mindset is that we continue to feel bad when we fall off of those strict diet and workout plans. This eventually leads to "I'll start over on Monday," which we continue to rinse and repeat. I don't know about you but that cycle sounds miserable. Luckily, there is a much better way.

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Amber shatters the idea that we have to be perfect in order to achieve sustainable weight loss. Being consistent is much more important than being perfect, and the key is to be consistent in the areas that work best for you. It doesn't have to be complicated, it can and should be very simple. So many times women will join a fitness or nutrition program that has been designed to be a one-size-fits-all, but we all have different and unique lives so following a plan that isn't designed specifically for us is setting us up for frustration.

Amber walks you through an exercise that you can do today in order to create a lifestyle that is effortless and sustainable and will support your weight loss goals. The key here is that you are creating a lifestyle that works specifically for you. What are your habits now? What does your ideal day look like? How do you bridge the gap between those two? Amber works with her clients to change their daily habits in a way that best suits each individual person, not just what some influencer on Instagram says you have to do in order to lose weight. Listen in to hear how you can get a free coaching session with Amber to figure out how to make shifts in your life that will align with your weight loss goals and work for your lifestyle.

Are you tired of feeling like you and your partner are constantly on different pages when it comes to communication? Do you struggle to express your feelings without putting your partner on the defensive? If so, you won't want to miss this episode of Amber's journey toward improving her communication skills and transforming her relationship with her partner.

Through three powerful reframes, Amber was able to shift her language and take responsibility for her own emotions, leading to greater compassion and openness in her relationship. The first reframe Amber learned was to express hurt to her partner without using "you" statements. She learned to instead use "I" statements to communicate her feelings in a non-threatening way, which elicited more compassion and understanding from her partner because her partner was less likely to get on the defensive.

Amber also recognized that our triggers in a relationship often have nothing to do with our partner, but rather our own historical experiences. Understanding this allowed her to communicate more effectively and avoid getting triggered.

To learn more in-depth about all three reframes that are sure to improve your communications with your loved ones, tune into this episode. Amber's journey and insights will inspire you to improve the way you interact with others. Whether you're in a long-term relationship, newly dating, or even single and just looking to improve your communication skills, this episode is for you.
