An article was published last week in the Huffington post discussing why everything that we know about obesity is wrong. 

Here is the article

I think it was a pretty good article. But, rather than give you my thoughts on the article, I want to give you my thoughts on the topic and let you make your own decision about this topic. 

Hope you enjoy this episode.

There are two types of hard: 

1) The challenge of getting up and doing the work that you need to do

2) The challenge of dealing with the consequences of not doing the work that you need to do. 

You get to choose which one that you want to deal with.

Today on the podcast, I am going to discuss the dichotomy of hard and discuss why this simple reframing of what you consider hard might change your perspective towards doing the "hard" thing in life that help you be successful. 

 

 

Today on the podcast I intervnew Justin Janoska. Justin helps women with hormonal imbalances and autoimmune disease take back their health and he is the founder of PCOS Powerhouse and Thyroid Revive programs.

In this episode we talk about:

- Justin's story and what inspired him to become obsessive about helping women with autoimmune disesae

- Restrictive dieting. When and where it can help with autoimmune disease and hormonal imbalances and when it can do more harm than good.

-The role of emotional and psychological stress and past trauma on the immune response and its contribution to autoimmune disease and PCOS

- The primary root causes of autoimmune disease as well as PCOS that must not be overlooked.

-Why clarity about what you want in life and your passion to fulfill your purpose is critical to your success in healing.

This was a really insightful interview and we didn't get to touch on all of the topics that I wanted to cover. I am probably going to have Justin on again to elaborate on some of the topics that we were only able to touch briefly on.

When we experience pain and discomfort long enough, we become numb to it and the pain becomes our new normal.

Every single day I speak to people who have let pain and discomfort become the new normal.

I think it would be safe to say that most people don't know how good they are supposed to feel.

On this episode, I talk about my thoughts on this topic and invite you to join me in a 28 Day Reset program that I am running in October.

Being skinny is not a prerequisite to health. 

Today on the podcast, I am going to review a research paper that presented some compelling data about the relationship between fitness, weight and longevity. 

The researchers of this paper make a strong argument for why public health messages and recommendations from doctors should focus on fitness rather than weight, and I agree. 

We have painted fat as bad as a society, but the truth is fat is a diverse organ that plays an important role in our metabolism and health. I talk about this on episode #63 of the podcast.

I know I am going to ruffle some feathers with this episode, but when I get a lot of questions on a particular topic, rather than answering them over and over again, I make an episode.

I get this question at least once per week. Someone asks me what I think about a particular multi-level-marketing company and usually if I haven't heard of the company before I will go in and review their products and I have been surprised that my answer is almost always the same. 

Tune in to find out more. 

PS: I promise this is not a podcast bashing these companies, I just want people to understand when and where using these products might be best.

It was a dark and stormy morning back in 2009 that I will never forget.

I had recently read a poorly research article on the magical benefits of apple cider vinegar for digestive health, and since I was dealing with a digestive issue I decided to try it out. 

Four mornings and 4 two ounce shots of apple cider vinegar later and I gagged, I choked a little, and dry heaved over my kitchen sink for about 15 seconds. 

For years, I was traumatized by that experience and would gag at the thought or mention of apple cider vinegar for years thereafter. 

If you reasonate with this experience, this episode is for you. 

We are going to discuss: 

1) The actual reason that one might want to use apple cider vinegar

2) Who is probably best avoiding ACV

3) How to use it effectively (if you choose to) without traumatizing yourself for life

"Everybody has sight, but few people have vision." 

-Eric Thomas

When it comes to creating your ideal life most people talk about setting a goal and and coming up with a plan to execute that goal. 

This is great advice. But in my experience in my own life and in the lives of those that I have worked with, there is something more important than goals and that is having a CLEAR VISION. 

Today on the show, I am going to talk about the importance of having a vision and how you can create your vision and use it to PROPEL you towards your goals.
