In this episode, I guide you through practical and empowering ways to navigate food, movement, and emotional wellbeing during the holidays. I share what I have learned from two decades in the fitness and nutrition space, including how simple shifts like choosing better ingredients, planning your movement, and eating high-protein meals can dramatically improve your energy, reduce bloating, and help you feel more grounded. I also talk about the real reasons our bodies react to certain foods, how to avoid common holiday pitfalls, and how to approach parties and gatherings with confidence and ease.
I also walk you through the mindset and rituals that support mental health during a season that often brings stress, anxiety, and heightened emotions. From scheduling intentional movement to preparing healthy treats at home, I give you the tools to enjoy traditions without feeling deprived or overwhelmed. My intention is to help you feel vibrant, present, and connected throughout the holidays, while reminding you that you can care for your body and soul without giving up the foods and experiences you love.
