To Your Health

Ever feel like sex is just another thing on the To Do list that you'd rather keep putting off?

You're not alone and you're not broken!

SO many women don't look forward to or enjoy sex -- and it's largely not for the reasons you'd think!

Today I'm joined by mental health and sex therapist, Courtney Boyer, who literally wrote the book on this, called "Not Tonight, Honey."

Listen and learn how we've ended up here and what you can do about it.

Courtney Boyer, M.Ed., M.S. is a relationship and sexuality expert and author of Not Tonight, Honey: Why women actually don't want sex and what we can do about it. Courtney believes we can reclaim our power through our sexuality and she helps her clients to infuse passion and creativity into their lives by helping them uncover what's preventing them from connecting with their priorities and purpose. 

As her work in this field develops, Courtney is drawn to the emerging fields of epigenetics, neuropsychology and energy work. She is trained in evidence-based methods like NLP, EMDR, IFS, and trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

After almost 20 years of coaching hundreds of women to lose weight, I feel pretty confident that the #1 issue standing in the way for most is having an all-or-nothing mentality toward their goals.

This approach is what causes the fluctuations from doing it all, to it all falling apart.

If there's one thing that needs to change in order to be more successful at actually reaching your goals and then keeping the weight off, it's this.

Tune in to find out exactly what it looks like to break out of this pattern and start taking a more gradual and sustainable approach.

A week or two into our Gone For Good coaching program, Liz was feeling like a new woman: energy through the roof, headaches gone, finally getting glimpses of feeling like herself.

And then as life has a way of doing, the perfect storm of "life stuff" knocked her down a few pegs.

Normally self-motivated, she couldn't bring herself to do, well, anything except for lay on the couch.

She could have wallowed in the "grind" she was experiencing but she did something else, instead.

She reached out to her coach, Amber, and told her how she was feeling. She made it a priority to attend group coaching calls to surround herself with the support she needed to pull herself out of this funk.

And it worked! Instead of this doom and gloom sticking around for weeks and really setting her back, within a week she was feeling just as good as she had been. The improvements of learning to put the right fuel in her body and letting go of the dozens of food "rules" that had been bogging her down were undeniable and they've just kept coming.

Tune into this episode as Liz and I discuss how leaning on your support system can expedite your results, how to feel comfortable reaching out for help when you have a problem you don't know the answer to, and some of the non-scale benefits that are making Liz's life so much easier and more enjoyable!
