  • 37: 2025 Step by Step Goal Planning Session (Includes Champagne)

    Hello!
    There is SO much to catch up on and we will have plenty of time to sort out what has been happening and how the podcast will go through it's own transformation this year.
    But if you are like me and time is passing you by faster than you can even comprehend, then we need to make sure to take advantage of the body and time that we do have. 
    Here is a step-by-step goal setting exercise my husband and I did for 2025.
    We established the areas of improvement (Finances, Fitness, & Fun), decided on the What (goals in each area), and then the HOW (action plan for each goal).

    Let me know your thoughts and if you go through this exercise yourself!

    Let's GO 2025!!!

  • 36: Game Day - Why You SHOULD Be A People Pleaser

    I'm so excited to bring this perspective on people pleasing to you!  When I heard my friend Deb Penner speak on this subject, it made so much sense.  The narrative that we are recovering people pleasers; trying to "quit" being people pleaser; or feel like we need to not care about others as much as we do--this conversation explains why being a people pleaser is innate to who we are as humans.  And this is a GOOD thing!

    I hope this conversation brings as much light and peace as it has done for me. 

    Let me know if any of these resonate for you!  Let me or Deb know or tag this episode @amyraenutrition @transformativeaf

    The waitlist is now open for The Promise P.A.C.K. (Purpose, Accountability, Consistency, & Knowledge) 2024.  This is  6 month group program where we go over a foundation of health each month and set small goals that we will actually stick to.  I find that information is not the problem, but implementation is!  This program is for women who are sick of stopping and starting their health journey, over all dieting roller-coaster, & want to change their health without impacting their bank accounts.

    Email or DM me to get on the waitlist.  This will only be offered to a small group of women as I have found that growing trust and truth amongst one another.

    Women who join the waitlist will receive a MASSIVE gift that will only elevate their health and experience in the program.  Don't WAIT on this opportunity!

  • 35: Team Huddle - It Happened. I have a pooch.

    Most of us (especially women) have a "trouble" area or some part of our body that bugs us.  That we wish would change or go away all together.  The part of our body that used to look different and is the image we replay in our mind and, or, are continuously chasing, desperate to look like "that" again. 

    Hear me out.  This is not about vanity.  The way I feel about my body physically is a symbol of how I haven't been taking care of my body.  It symbolizes inconsistency in the process.  It symbolizes choosing choices from a place of comfort, not necessarily what's the overall good for my body--and most of all mind. 

    Let me know if any of these resonate for you!  Share with a friend &  tag this episode @amyraenutrition

  • 34: Team Huddle - 3 Ways You're Getting Into Your Own Way

    Are you getting into your own way?  After 2 years of working with clients (and coming across these in my own life), I discuss 3 ways you are getting into your own way.  Whether that be improvement in your health/fitness/wellness journey or in any other aspect of your life--career, motherhood, relationship, etc.

  • 33: Game Day - How to Make Ride or Die Friendships

    Team!  I'm so excited for this conversation with Sarah Siegert who is a friendship coach for women that have primarily moved to a new area or country and are struggling making new friends and building community.

    I can tell you that from the many in person personal development and business events I have been to this year, the one thing many women are looking for are friends.  I mean TRUE friends.  Ride or die.  Join me in this conversation with Sarah if you are feeling like you have outgrown friendships, feel like it's hard to make new friends as an adult, or need more community in your life.

    One of my favorite conversations!

  • 32: Game Day - Better than Beach Body

    It's Game Day!  On this episode of The Chronic Athlete I have a conversation with my new friend April Hovelson.  I recently had the pleasure to meet her in person and she is even more inspiring and kind than I had imagined!

    She is on a mission to help busy women make time for themselves by not only working out, but making it doable in any space and getting creative on what you can use in your home to add extra strength.  She truly has the most giving heart and approach--I mean you can literally get in shape for FREE by just following her! 

    She also has an app which gives more in depth workouts PLUS community!

  • 31: Game Day - The Sober Rebellion

    It's Game Day!  On this episode of The Chronic Athlete I had such a great conversation with Steph Prangley who began as a coach helping women to balance their hormones, but through her own journey now coaches women who are sober curious or are aiming to become sober.  She supports women in not only approaching a sober journey/life, but helping with nutritional support along the way.

    This is one of my favorite episodes and is PACKED with so much knowledge.  No matter how much alcohol you consume, it's important to know the impacts on our bodies and hormones.  The more knowledge we have, the more informed choices we can make.

    You can find Steph leading the rebellion below:

  • 30: Team Huddle - Delusional Dreaming

    Team Huddle - On this solo episode of The Chronic Athlete, we talk about delusional dreaming.

    Are you a delusional dreamer like me?  Do you love to talk about what you WILL do; love to make a plan with your partner or bestie; love to start new challenges; love to dream about all about what you COULD accomplish but fail to take consistent action to back it up?

    Below is a link to the Chronic Athlete Facebook Community where you will find the protein freebie that describes what the heck 100 grams of protein looks like.  I call out some protein power foods and also provide an example of what eating 100 grams of protein looks like within a day.

  • 29: Team Huddle - It All Starts with YOU

    Team Huddle - On this solo episode of The Chronic Athlete, I discuss my recent trip to Arizona for a business roundtable, a disaster of an experience at a hotel, and how all facets in your life begin and end with YOU. 

    Can you believe we are in the last 90 Days of 2023?

    If you want to uplevel your health, one of the habits that can make a real difference in your energy, satiety, and overall weight loss is hitting your daily protein goal. 

    Below is a link to my freebie on what the heck 100 grams of protein looks like by sharing some protein power foods and also an example of what eating 100 grams of protein looks like within a day.

  • 28: Game Day - Life Coach for Moms

    It's Game Day!  On this episode of The Chronic Athlete I had the best conversation with one of my favorite people and leaders, Scottie Durrett.  Scottie works specifically with moms that are overwhelmed, feel like they have become a version of themselves they don't recognize, or have asked themselves, "is this it?".

    She is a true leader as she follows through on the promises she keeps to herself and helps other women do the same.

    She has a community for moms called High Vibes Moms where she offers free weekly support.  Scottie is a woman and leader you want to follow.
