True Self Podcast

I'm so excited for this episode!! Christina has been on my podcast bucket list from the very beginning and I've been super blessed to have connection with this lady.

On this episode, I ask Christina to recount who she is and her story that has made her become the amazing Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Reiki Practitioner she is now. She explains the difference between a conventional doctor and functional doctor and how the latter's approach is what has help her heal her body from all the ailments she has gone through.

I also share with her how she is my expander so, naturally, I ask her to explain what that is and how that works when it comes to manifesting the life you want to live. Whether that is personally, emotionally or from a financial stand point.

I absolutely LOVE her honesty and confidence in which she explains anything and everything. I highly encourage you to listen to her podcast "Wellness Realness" and check out her website www.christinaricewellness.com and definitely follow her on Instagram @christinaricewellness for all things health and wellness.

Nutrition is of the utmost importance for a healthy life. Focusing on food quality and eating mostly whole foods is the key to good nutrition. People who are eating a standard American diet made up of mostly processed foods, will admit that they don’t usually consume fruits and vegetables every day. The USDA’s dietary guidelines recommend any where from 5-13 servings of fruits and veggies daily. Adding variety is another factor as well. JuicePlus has made it simple in bridging the gap in our daily nutrition, putting whole foods in capsules. If you want to improve upon your health with a simple step add Juice Plus to your daily routine.

If you've been a part or are a part of the Tucson CrossFit community, you know who our guest is today. Leanda Keahi-Bevans is a well know for her positivity, tenacity and all around positive energy. She was featured on CrossFit's website (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXaoDjuCgaQ). She tell us the story that lead her to a depressive state for 13 years and how CrossFit helped her take her health and confidence back. She has gone through breast cancer and is fighting the good fight a second time around!

This is our longest episode yet! And it would've ran longer if it wasn't because we were hungry and it was dinner time. Leanda is spunky and is a wonderful story-teller and if there was one thing we learned from her interview is that positivity always wins!

Let's talk about how difficult it is to ask and accept help when you know you need it. Byanka and Yahaira both admit that this is a problem that they deal with constantly. Going through this thing called life, we expect to go through it alone and be able to solve our problems by ourselves. Well, that's simply not true. We all need coaches and mentors to help us along the way, especially when it comes to weight loss.

We go in and out of subjects but the overall theme here is realizing that eating for health and longevity is not the same as eating for performance or aesthetics. The point of the podcast is to bring to light that extreme dieting and diets are being peddled as healthy. Health is the act of taking care of your body for longevity purposes and aesthetics are merely a side-effect of this.

There are a few tears shed...again. But, they aren't in vain. There's some real impactful topics at hand so we hope you enjoy!
