If there was one goal I could encourage every client I work with to set in 2020, it would be to develop and fiercely protect their self-confidence.

Because with the right dose of self-confidence your ability to pursue and conquer your other goals will skyrocket.

Are you leading the dance with food or is food leading you?

We are in the thick of the holiday season where opportunities to eat and drink are around every corner. And, if you don’t stay mindful of why you are consuming these things, you can roll into the new year with a lot of undesirable consequences.

In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I present listeners with powerful questions to ask themselves to ensure they maintain a healthy relationship with food.

Grace & Grit Podcast - Episode 190: Trimming the Holiday Fat
play

12/07/19 • 23 min

There is often a disconnect between what we believe the holidays are about and how we actually go about living them.

We say we believe the holidays are all about love, peace, gratitude, and connection, but we don’t make time for those things. Or, we are only partially present.

Instead, we live the holidays stressed, fatigued, overwhelmed, resentful, and frustrated. Worse yet, we use the rational that we are doing it for others.

But here’s a hard truth... if mama ain’t happy, no one is happy!

If you truly want to enjoy the holiday season this year and roll into the New Year feeling energized and ready, check out this episode of the Grace and Grit Podcast.

Grace & Grit Podcast - Episode 047: Thriving Through the Holidays w/ Sara Bradford
play

12/10/16 • 35 min

I am currently in the throws of teaching a new program this year that is really geared towards helping women maintain a high level of self-care during the holidays, and it is really something I should have started years ago. I was compelled to start this program because, every year during the holidays, I see women struggling more than any other time of the year to maintain their health standards.

They start putting their own self-care on the back burner to keep up with the demands of the season.

They allow boundaries to be crossed and far too many compromises around their own health to be made.

They do it all by rationalizing that they will do better come Jan 1. But ...

January 1 comes and women are exhausted and sick (literally), because of all of the negotiating they did around they holidays, so they fail to do better. It is a painful cycle to watch, and I have had to watch it for too many years. Every year I joke that I am going to take February off because people are so crabby and bitter and sick, and I really believe a lot of that stems from what has happened around the holidays.

So...At 6am, every day for 1 month, I have a small but mighty group of women showing up on a live coaching call with me because they have committed to not losing themselves within the pile of stress & consumption that shows up simultaneously with the joy and celebration of the holidays.

And I wanted to extend a bit of holiday support to you as well, so today I have invited back to the show, my friend and nutritionist extraordinaire, Sara Bradford to discuss some of the specific challenges that show up around this time of year and how we can navigate them more successfully.

Grace & Grit Podcast - Episode 226: 3 Steps to Infuse Your Life With More Life
play

02/13/21 • 30 min

I don’t know about you but, I don’t just want to live my life, I want to rock my life.

And to do that I need to stay honest with myself about when I am in need of recovery, restoration and revitalization.

But aren’t those the same things? You might be wondering:)

No.

The wellness industry tends to focus on recovery, which is oh-so-important, but it also isn’t enough to live your best life (with a strong dose of enthusiasm).

Tune into this episode if you are someone who wants to shape your life into the most vibrant experience.

Grace & Grit Podcast - Episode 229: The real work of deep health.
play

03/27/21 • 34 min

Is it just me or does it feel like “weight loss” is the loudest conversation in the women’s health arena?

It drives me nuts! Why?

For a few reasons:

  • A woman’s weight doesn’t really tell you a damn thing about the state of her health.
  • Health is so much more than how much weight a woman carries on her body.
  • Even if excess weight on a woman’s body is causing health challenges, the answer is not as simple as weight loss.

In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I share two topics that really define the work that I do in the world as a health coach: deep work and deep health.

If you are ready to explore women’s health beyond the “weight loss” conversation, do not miss this episode.

Grace & Grit Podcast - Episode 257: Healthy Self-Discipline
play

10/23/21 • 33 min

I have worked with clients who struggle to apply any degree of discipline when it comes to their own self-care and I have worked with clients who have applied discipline to the point of self-destruction.

Neither promotes health.

If you want to improve your health, you need a dash of self-discipline but how much you need really depends on what else is happening in your life.

In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I will help you identify when you might need to dial up the self-discipline in your process and when you might need to dial it down.

This past month inside of my Rumble & Rise membership community I taught an in-depth class all about mending our relationship with sugar. More specifically, how to regulate blood sugar. And...

As a bonus to the masterclass that I taught, I invited my dear friend and nutritionist extraordinaire, Mary Miller Brooks, in to have a conversion with me.

The conversation was so rich, I decided to share it with the Grace & Grit community.

In this interview, Mary & I discuss:

  • What blood sugar is,
  • The consequences of dysregulated blood sugar,
  • Lifestyle factors that influence blood sugar,
  • Ways to measure blood sugar,

... and so much more!

If you are interested in better understanding blood sugar regulation give this a listen (better yet... come join us inside the Rumble & Rise community).

The diet industry is a multibillion-dollar industry that has sold people on the notion that “what works for one person will work for everyone”. And it has failed, miserably.

Wellness is not a cookie-cutter formula that can be applied to every human. In fact, the path that will return a person to a state of well-being is as unique as the individual who is pursuing it.

In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I have invited my friend and nutritionist extraordinaire, Mary Miller Brooks to the show, to discuss why it is so important to customize the journey back to health.

We cover a lot of ground, discussing things like:

  • gut health
  • thyroid health
  • food mapping
  • sweating as a detox mechanism

...and so much more!
