In this week's episode, I'm talking about the pros and cons of the transition from summer to fall, "clean" eating for fat loss, my personal journey with binge eating "clean" foods and wondering why I couldn't lose weight, watching tv during the day, the ONE thing I miss about having my own car, re-sealable bags, Vancouver's abysmal coffee shop ranking video, onion hair, New York Airbnb situation, Selling The OC, and the out-of-control tipping culture.

After a mini-pod break, I'm baaaaaack! In this week's episode, I'll be diving into the recap of my 4-month fat loss phase. I'll cover my initial expectations, the ultimate outcomes, my macros, exercise routine, and the shift in my mindset.

I'll also chat about the concept of "Almond moms," explore the 'icks' inspired by Jared Fried's stand-up special, and I'll share my "everything shower."

Towards the end of the episode, I'll delve into how my world, both in the physical realm and online space, has become increasingly saturated with baby culture and mom culture. I'll share my insights on the constant stream of targeted ads bombarding me due to my age and gender, and how I've been intentional to find balance amidst it all.

This week, I'm excited to be joined by a very special guest, my husband Ryan. It wasn't easy to persuade him to come on the show, so I hope you all appreciate this rare appearance as much as I do! I kick off the episode flying solo, reflecting on our wedding day.

Later in the episode, Ryan and I dive into a candid conversation about our individual experiences on that unforgettable day. We share the aspects that truly warmed our hearts, the delightful surprises that caught us off guard, and even some things we might consider doing differently if we were to do it all over again. Your support and well-wishes on our wedding day meant the world to us, and we want to express our gratitude from the bottom of our hearts.

Thank you for tuning in, and for all the love you've sent our way. We hope you enjoy this intimate discussion as much as we enjoyed sharing it. <3

In today's episode I'm talking about my final wedding dress fitting, wedding veil's, first dance song, manifesting menstruation, and other wedding musings. I'm also sharing WHY I'm a big proponent of simplifying and repeating meals. I talk about ways to add-in variety while still sticking with staple meals to lessen the overwhelm and decision fatigue that often happens when you ask yourself, "what's for dinner?"

In today's episode, I'll be recapping my weekend on the island, which included my wedding day makeup trial, an unexpected discovery that apparently I enjoy golf!!!, updates on our condo progress (or lack thereof), and other musings from the weekend. I'm also delving into a topic inspired by a recent conversation with a potential client: the frustrations and burnout that can arise from working with a coach or program that may have mismanaged expectations. This might involve overpromising and underdelivering, lacking transparency regarding the client's involvement, or simply not being the right fit.  I'll explore the reasons behind why I think some people experience diet and coach burnout.

Today, I'm exploring a topic that's been on my mind lately: Body Love. The anti-diet and body positivity movement pushes for everyone to love their body. The intention is good, but is it realistic? And what if you never get there...Are you failing?...Can you still have a good relationship with food and with yourself? I'm sharing what I practice for myself and what I encourage my clients to work towards instead. 
Other topics:

• Self acceptance vs cooperation
• Self love vs self-respect
• Examples of self-respect 
• Weekend recap
