The Better Self Project

In today's episode, Pamela and I discuss why it's so important to refill your cup, now and again. We also give a ton of examples on how to refill your cup.

It's been a season! It's been a stressful one and a burdensome year. With Covid, staying at home, Zoom work meeting, virtual school sessions, limited toilet paper, and everything in between, 2020 has been a rough one.

We're heading into Winter and it's imperative that we take time to refill our cups and refresh our souls. We have to do it in order to stay active and productive. It's vital and necessary for our mental capacity and our mental health.

Focus on things like sleep, deep meditative breaths, hydration, movement, mindful consumption, etc. And don't forget to have fun. Life should have silly moments. Blast loud music. Watch silly movies that you love. Find ways to participate in activities that are "life-giving".

Time Stamps:

1:15 - What it means to "refill your cup".

2:04 - We only have so much energy.

3:06 - We're maxed right now as a society with Covid.

5:08 - How can we get back to baseline?

7:53 - Examples for how to refill our cup.

9:09 - Be mindful of consumption (food and media).

11:18 - Revisit your childhood.

13:44 - Know your personality type (introvert or extrovert).

14:56 - Give back to refill your cup.

15:27 - Consider how you'll feel after. Delaying gratification may feel better.

16:52 - Ask for help.

In todays episode, Pamela and I discuss support systems and why they're so important when trying to achieve health-related goals.

It's important to have people in your corner, who want the best for you. People who will champion you and be with you during the hard times and the good times.

We need people who support our decisions and lifestyles because changing how we operate in the world can be difficult. It can be hard to change for the better, especially as busy adults with jobs and busy lives. It becomes exceedingly more difficult if the people in our lives can't honor or recognize our lifestyle habits and behaviors.

It helps to have people by our sides and hold us accountable. If the people we surround ourselves care about us and love us, they will do the best they can to help us on our journey and not sabotage us. It takes time for people to get on board, so be sure to communicate with your people what it is you're trying to achieve.

Set realistic boundaries with people and watch who honors those boundaries. Anyone that doesn't respect those boundaries may need to be kept at a distance.

Also, be sure to audit the internal dialogue that you have with yourself to ensure that you're being a good self-support system.

Time Stamps:

0:48 - Why is it important to have support systems?

What makes food delicious? Is it the food's flavor? The seasoning used while cooking it? Does it have to be calorically dense or heavy on the butter and oil to really taste good?

We discuss what actually makes food taste delicious in this episode.

We also discuss why we think most people's palates in America and beyond have been hijacked by over processed, high-calorie foods. We talk about how we like to sample our food, as well as how we like to season our food.

It's important to remember that just because food is high in calories, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's delicious. Healthy food is delicious, too. Foods rich in natural flavors and spices can be quite tasty and delicious. If we want to make an overhaul to our eating and really start making healthier decisions, we've got to address our beliefs about food and what we perceive to be food that tastes good.

We also give some examples as to how we can cleanse our palate and create a big re-set on our taste buds.

Junk food is not synonymous with delicious food, and we talk about why in this episode.

Time Stamps:

0:46 - A disclaimer

2:06 - Restaurant choices

3:06 - What we usually think of as "delicious"

6:03 - How we make food delicious now and what it means

7:44 - What dinner looks like for us most nights

8:40 - Redefining "delicious"

13:46 - Shifting the "delicious" paradigm

16:45 - You have to enjoy your food

In this episode, Pamela and I give five tips for Thanksgiving dinner. Our hope is that along with these tips, you'll be able to better enjoy your Thanksgiving meal guilt and shame free. Enjoy the holiday with the ones that you can and be safe!

We discuss ways we can be mindful and intentional in the earlier part of the week leading up to Thanksgiving.

It's important to load up our plates with fruits, veggies, and lean protein FIRST.

We talk about how we can reframe Thanksgiving day, but recognizing that the biggest meal of the day is in the middle of the day. This doesn't mean we need to have massive meals for breakfast or dinner. We may not even want to eat a big dinner later after the Thanksgiving feast.

We discuss why it's important to prioritize eating the food item that you really love.

We also talk about how it's crucial to not have a "scarcity mindset" when it comes to food. Food is usually plentiful on Thanksgiving. We don't have to eat everything in sight.

Time Stamps:

1:55 - Being mindful in the week leading up to Thanksgiving.

3:00 - Load up on fruits and veggies first.

4:30 - Recognize that your heaviest meal will be in the middle of the day.

5:39 - Make it a priority to eat the foods you love and sample the rest.

7:36 - Don't have a scarcity mindset when it comes to food.

10:30 - A rundown of each tip.

In this episode, Pamela and I discuss the concept known as "body neutrality" and how it can assist us in shifting our perspective in a healthy way. 

We talk about how being body neutral allows us to fall in love with the process, take pride in working towards our goals, and give us a hand in not shaming ourselves to a "perfect" body.

We talk about how to reframe what it means to view our bodies in a much more accepting and forgiving way. A mindset that allows us to progress through life and all of the different seasons that our bodies will ultimately go through.

Time Stamps:

0:39 - What is "body neutrality"?

1:12 - An emotional connection with our body.

4:45 - With this type of awareness and even acceptance, we can work to improve our bodies.

5:20 - The difference between "body neutrality" and "body positivity".

9:33 - There is ebb and flow to it, and our body can be "in process".

10:50 - We can use this mindfulness to stay on track and stay present.

12:02 - How body awareness can help propel us forward.

15:14 - The concept of "body neutrality" is much more forgiving.

In this episode, Pamela and I discuss what self-care is, how to implement it into our lives, and what it can look like.

We start by telling a story of self-discovery where Kyle talks about what he used to think when he heard the word "self-care".

We find that when we live busy lives, self-care becomes a necessary component to resting and recuperating enough to continue striving and working towards our goals.

It was a shift in perspective that allowed both Pamela and Kyle to find the necessity of self-care in their own lives. It became a "need" instead of just a "want".

A great way to implement self-care is to own your mornings. To have rituals. Reactivity can be a sign that you may need to have some self-care time. 

Exercise and movement is self-care. We don't always feel like doing it, but it's good for our health, our weight, and our hormones.

Learning new skills can be a form of self-care. It forces us to stay in the present moment.

We have to find out what refills our cup, then we must work to protect it. 

Time Stamps:

0:35 - Self-discovery.

0:42 - What does self-care mean?

In this episode, Pamela and I discuss the concept of looking at food as fuel for our bodies, for our lifestyles, and for our activity. We give a brief rundown of all three macronutrients (protein, carbs, and fat) and how they serve our bodies.

We must recognize that food is value neutral. It's not good or bad. Some foods are more nutritious that others.

When we view food as neutral, we can observe how it fuels us. Knowing more about macros gives us awareness, autonomy, and freedom.

We talk a lot about how proteins/fats/carbs serve us and serve our bodily functions. Then we give examples for each, usually in the nutrition-rich category.

When we become more aware of what we're consuming day to day, we have the opportunity to tweak and make subtle adjustments that allow us to improve our eating and performance.

Time Stamps:

0:30 - Food is neither "good" nor "bad".

1:50 - The great thing about knowing more about macros.

2:37 - Protein, carbs, and fats.

3:03 - Protein is important.

6:09 - Good sources of protein.

6:55 - Carbs explained and why they matter.

9:20 - Sources of healthy carbs.

10:05 - Fats and why we shouldn't demonize them.

11:28 - Healthy sources of dietary fats.

13:30 - Becoming aware.

16:40 - When we view food in this way, food becomes more value-neutral.

In this episode, we discuss how doing the seemingly "right" things in regards to weight loss may be leading many of us astray. Should you do tons of steady state cardio to lose body fat? Should you endure really rigid diets in order to attain the body you've always been after? Maybe not. We talk about some misconceptions as well as give advice on what can be more effective and sustainable long-term.

Sometimes, we assume doing the right things means torturing ourselves. We think we need to do hours of cardio each day, and succumb to really rigid and restrictive diets. But what if none of the traditional things we've been told our whole lives works?

It's necessary to be kind to ourselves on our health journeys. We must find what works for us. We shouldn't be trying to starve ourselves thin. We shouldn't be attempting to burn an extra 1,000 calories a day on the treadmill. 

We aim to give some practical tools and ideas in this episode, the practices that actually work.

Time Stamps:

0:35 - Doing the "right" things.

1:01 - The social media trap.

2:30 - We often get discouraged when we think we're doing the right things.

4:00 - Restrictive diets.

4:44 - When I struggled (Kyle).

5:40 - Beating ourselves up doesn't help.

7:47 - More cardio may not be the answer.

9:30 - A story about skipping meals.

10:17 - The rebound effect.

10:30 - Be flexible - consistency over perfection.

13:06 - Harmful diets.

13:52 - Intuitive eating.

16:33 - We justify shaming ourselves.

In this episode we discuss why it's not the best idea to completely cut out a macronutrient or food group. We also discuss the Keto diet and it's pitfalls.

We start by explaining the details of the Ketogenic Diet. We talk about how it works, why people may think it's effective, and some of the many pitfalls associated with.

Keto was originally designed to help people with epilepsy. If someone is actually following a keto diet, they are entering ketosis, and they are splitting up their macros to have very high fat, very low carbs (usually in the form of vegetables), and moderate protein.

Keto can be very hard to adhere to, which makes it fairly unsustainable.

We assume keto is great for weight loss because we shed water when we cut our carb intake and this can appear as though we're losing body fat. The problem is there is usually a dramatic rebound. Once a person has any number of carb sources, the water weight comes right back.

We explain why we promote a balanced diet for most of our clients, what that means, and what that can look like. We talk in detail about why keeping your carbs might be advantageous from a physical performance perspective.

Time Stamps:

1:35 - It might be better for you to keep your carbs.

2:08 - "The Keto Diet".

4:42 - The challenge of going Keto or very low-carb.

7:55 - Keto or low-carb diets can hinder athletic performance.

10:03 - A balanced diet explanation.

11:32 - The best sources of healthier carbs.

15:26 - We enjoy simple carbs from time to time.

In this episode, we give a brief overview of what it means to have a "growth mindset" versus a more common "fixed mindset". Many of us have a mindset that tells us that our abilities and traits are fixed and after a certain point cannot be changed. 

A growth mindset is one in which we believe we can improve through determination, practice, and hard work.

A Fixed mindset is one in which we believe our talents and abilities are pre-determined and that there is a ceiling to them.

Having a growth mindset is paramount when trying to learn new skills. Having a growth mindset is crucial when aiming to do difficult things such as changing our bodies, completing a project, and leveling up our lives.

Part of having a growth mindset is falling in love with the process of working towards our goals. We establish systems and routines that will eventually get us to where we want to be. It's impossible to fall in love with the process of working to get better with a fixed mindset. A fixed mindset assumes not much can change.

Knowing our "why" give our work and practice it's purpose and meaning. Celebrating small wins along the way allows us to feel good about continuing on with our journey of hard work and practice.

Time Stamps:

0:32 - A "Growth Mindset".

1:49 - A "Fixed Mindset".

4:19 - Why having a growth mindset is important.

5:50 - Falling in love with the process.

7:21 - Knowing our "WHY".

8:10 - Celebrate the small wins.

10:10 - Growth over speed.

12:59 - Expect set-backs.

13:48 - Using the phrase "not yet".
