Empowerment is something that is born from the inside, from the day-to-day actions, internal thoughts, and self-talks. We also need to practice feeling empowered, happy, and joyful without any external event happening to us. It must be an organic and internal state of being. It takes time to train ourselves, but that's an important part of feeling like we are the ones who run our lives, and not anything or anyone.

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution, Amber welcomes Keri Ford to discuss empowerment, women leadership, and creating a legacy and a life we're proud of. Keri shares a little bit about her own struggles dealing with eating disorders and how she was able to step out of self-depreciation and step into a wealthy life, full of confidence. Keri believes that all women can be equally fulfilled in all areas of life, including you!

There is no doubt that when we think about sustainable diet, we think about the quantity of food. Eating too many calories on a daily basis will eventually lead to weight gain and that's pretty much unquestionable. What most people don't take too much into account is the quality of food: processed foods and items that come inside of a box are oftentimes the villain of weight loss, and should be considered.

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution, Amber explains the benefits of adding into your routine food options that are more natural, healthier, and less industrialized. Not only are the more nutrient-dense foods better for our health, they provide a deeper sensation of satisfaction which, on its own, will make you stop wanting to snack all the time. Tune in to learn more on how you can make these changes happen!

Wellness Quote

• "You cannot live a sustainable lifestyle where you're trying to stop the dieting, if the food that you eat sucks." – Amber Shaw

Key Highlights

• Amber talks about the effects of processed foods on our health and our weight loss journey;
• How calorie deficit is one piece of the whole puzzle of losing weight and keeping the weight off;
• Whole foods VS; Processed foods – which one makes you more satisfied?

Sleep is the most fundamental component of our health. That's a true statement that oftentimes is not considered by people on their journey of weight loss and muscle gain.

When we improve sleep quality, we improve our life.

You will listen to a complete guide on how sleep affects hormones, weight loss, hunger, self-control, and even motivation.

The general diet culture imposes such a high level of restriction and commitment, that what was supposed to be an easy process, becomes a nightmare for a lot of people. It's hard enough for someone who wants to lose a few pounds, so imagine what it's like for girls dealing with eating disorders and, at the same time, facing a certain pressure from society to "change" and lose weight in order to be "worthy".

In this episode of The Wellness Revolution Podcast, Amber welcomes Holly Toronto to discuss why women are taught from a very young age that their bodies are not ok the way they are and, for that reason, something needs to be changed. The roots of these situations are discussed here, as well as, Holly's current approach with intuitive eating and how she was able to be in peace with her body – teaching others to do the same. Tune in!

Wellness Quote

• "So much of body image is just a projection of our worth and how we feel about ourselves." – Holly Toronto

Key Highlights

• Holly shares her past when she was suffering with body image issues, eating disorders, and how she took an interest in holistic treatments;
• Holly makes a parallel between the image we try to achieve by dieting and the feeling of 'badness' that is taught so much from religious concepts;
• How Holly coaches her clients in terms of intuitive eating and moderation;
• The importance of allowing ourselves to enjoy freedom during the holidays (Unconditional permission to eat);
• Amber and Holly touch on the basics of intermittent fasting;
• Holly shares a message of positivity and how it's important to nurture, love, and care for our bodies.

For every decision we make, there's a reason behind it. It's not always in plain sight, but if we dive deep enough into our emotions, it's going to be there. In this episode, Amber highlights the importance of "finding your true why" and identifying the reasons that caused you to make the decisions you've made and to take the course of action you've taken. The act of changing begs the question: "Why do I want to change?"

Amber also takes you through her own personal "why's" and how her childhood lessons ended up playing a role on her current journey. To wrap it up, you will be able to follow along a practical but very simple exercise on discovering your "why". With 7 steps, this exercise hopefully will give you insight about your present time.

Wellness Quote

• "I think what's really important is that your 'reason behind it' needs to be for the right reasons. Otherwise, it will never be enough." – Amber Shaw

• Amber highlights the importance of finding your true why and exploring the motives that were crucial to make you want to change;
• Amber shares her own "why" and what potentially caused her to always seek for perfection;
• Follow along a practical exercise in order to find YOUR true "why".
