Do you ever have sugar cravings after you have a big meal? Do you crave sugar late at night or in the middle of the day? Do you think about the sweet treat waiting for you at home or the office, and no matter how hard you try to fight off the urge, you find yourself breaking and indulging anyways?
You are not alone! The average American consumes more than 17 teaspoons of sugar a day, which is over 70 grams, which accounts for more than 14% of the average diet. Most of this sugar comes from processed foods, which add sugar to things like ketchup, sauces, and even bread.

One of the toughest challenges is getting back up after being knocked down. It takes a great deal of strength, courage, and determination. One of the greatest challenges, yes, but also one of the most gratifying and enjoyable. The capacity to recover and move on is a trait that may be honed through practice. It calls for a shift in perspective, from dwelling on mistakes to planning for future improvements. If you are facing a tough spot in your life, The Proclivity Method helps you get back on track on a healthy journey to becoming the best version you can be.
Kaitlyn shares her experiences beyond The Proclivity Method. 3 months after her training, she talks about her belief in herself being the best it was in quite some time.

According to the World Health Organization over 100 million women around the world use oral contraceptives as their birth control plan. Since the pill became available in 1960 it has been one of the most commonly used forms of birth control for females between the ages of 15-49.

Although highly effective “the pill” is known to have adverse side effects including nausea, breast tenderness, headaches, missed periods, weight gain, mood changes and decreased sex drive. With so many short term side effects and the possibility of even longer term side effects many women are looking to more natural birth control plans but aren’t sure where to start.

Episode 64: Salt. Friend or Foe?
Salt is a naturally occurring compound that we mostly use to season the foods we eat, giving it more flavor and better taste. Yet over the past few decades salt has gotten a bad reputation as it has been linked to high blood pressure, heart disease and even stomach cancer.
Those 3 killers are enough for most people to run home and trash their salt, but is salt to blame? Is it really that dangerous or is it the missing piece to your health puzzle?
In today’s episode we get real salty as we talk about the misinformation of salt and how getting proper sodium can be the one change you didn’t know you needed to make!

Do you like to have a morning cup of coffee to start your day? If you are one of the 150 million people in the United States, statistics show that you have an 85% chance of having at least one cup of coffee before you walk out the door.
After the first cup, most Americans don’t stop there as the average is 3 cups of coffee per day with 65% drinking those cups before noon and 30% being consumed between meals. There is no wonder then why America imports over 4 billion dollars in coffee every year!
With coffee being consumed by so many people throughout the world the real question is should we be drinking it? Is it healthy for us? Can it help us lose weight? Does it cause cancer? How much should I be drinking?
In today’s episode Emily and Joel dive into these questions and more as we discuss whether coffee should or shouldn’t be part of your daily routine!

Did you know that over 163 million people eat out at least once a week in America? That is nearly 63% of the population who spend an average of $71 a week which in total comes out to 602 billion dollars a year!
Although this may not surprise you, the repercussions of constantly eating out are adding up as the obesity rate in America is the highest it has ever been in history at 42%.
Why does eating out have such an impact on our overall weight and health? The issue is that most restaurants save money by using lower quality foods and ingredients including harmful seed oils that create inflammation and weight gain.
Does this mean that you should never eat out again? NO! There are plenty of options to eat healthy and stay metabolically flexible when you are traveling, eating out or visiting family and friends for dinner.
It starts with knowing what foods will help you stay metabolically flexible and what foods won’t. The next step is then doing a little research and finding the restaurants that source their food locally and use higher quality ingredients.
Want the blueprint on how to make eating out enjoyable and healthy? In this episode Emily and Joel dive into how to keep your body burning fat and feeling good all while enjoying your time out!

Do you find yourself hungry throughout the day?
If the answer is yes, you are not alone. Most people struggle with losing weight, having energy and dealing with hunger cravings during the day.
The problem is that as a society we have become hyper focused on “diets” and “watching our calories” that we are missing the underlying problem of vitamin deficiency that is affecting millions of people every year.
92% of Americans are suffering from one or more mineral or vitamin deficiency. This is an astounding number…
The reason is that processed foods have become a staple in the American diet while the soil of farmlands across the nation continue to be deficient in micronutrients producing less high nutrient whole foods.
This is why so many people struggle with hunger cravings throughout the day because their body isn’t receiving enough micronutrients to maintain proper cell production so that body asks for more fuel, even if it’s not the best quality.
This leads to overeating, weight gain, poor energy and a plethora of different digestive issues. Yet it doesn’t have to be this way! By making a few adjustments to the QUALITY of foods you get you can start to crave less, have more energy and start burning more fat!
Join Emily and Joel as they talk about the importance of quality foods and how they can help you to create a metabolically flexible body that will burn more fat, create more energy and stop those mid day cravings!

If you are part of the 95% that didn’t find success you are probably frustrated with counting calories, macros and each oz of food that goes on your plate only to see little to no change.
Yet what if we were to tell you that losing weight IS A LOT easier than you think? What if we told you that your body is already primed to be a fat burning machine? That you actually need to eat more to lose weight instead of less? Would you believe us?

When you look in the mirror what do you see? What words do you use to describe the body that is in front of you? Is it words that build you up or break you down?
Unfortunately studies show that 91% of women are unhappy with their body image with only 5% of women who actually possess the body type that is portrayed in mainstream media.
With this hyper focus on the way a body “should look” instead of how it “should feel” it is no wonder why the weight loss industry is a $72 billion dollar industry that continues to grow while the problem still exists.
Yet what if we could all see our bodies for what they are instead of what they aren’t?
What would happen if we celebrated our bodies in the mirror instead of picking them apart?
What if we no longer focused on what others thought and instead focused on what we can cultivate within ourselves?
In episode 45 we go in depth with Nutrition and Body Image coach Mikayla Coley to talk about how body image and healthy nutrition go hand in hand and how you can start cultivating the body you have always wanted today!

Do you remember the original food pyramid? It was created in 1992 and at the base of the pyramid was “Bread, cereal, rice and pasta” which led many to believe that a diet high in carbs and low in fat was the optimal way to a healthy body.
Many years later scientific data has proven that the food pyramid was flawed yet the remains of the “carb craze” still lingers to this day as many are confused on not only what carbs are, but how they interact with our bodies.
So the question is, are carbs bad for you?

What was the last diet that you did? Did you count your calories, limit your sugar intake and focus on eating more whole foods? Did it work? If you are like most people it probably did, that is for a certain amount of time before you found yourself back where you started.

If you are like most people, the motivation that sparked the change eventually died out as the reality of life started to push back. It is no surprise that 70% of people who set goals DO NOT achieve them.
Why is this? Is there a lack of dedication? Are people scared to reach their true potential? Do we put too much pressure on ourselves to be perfect?

No we are not talking about your nightcap we are talking about the essential element to life, H20. Let me guess, you are saying to yourself right now that “I totally drink enough water everyday”, guess again.
In a study conducted by Cornell University they found that 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated….. 75%! This means chances are high that you too are dehydrated even if you think you aren’t.
If you happen to be one of the 25% of people who are properly hydrated you still most likely have a gaping hole in your hydration game and it’s your electrolytes. When your electrolytes are low it can cause low energy, food cravings and poor sleep! Who knew drinking was so important?

Episode 38: Sleeping For Weight Loss
Are you struggling to lose weight? Do you dedicate hours each week to the gym while focusing on eating healthy and still can’t seem to lose that stubborn belly fat or get to the body composition you want?
This is a common problem with a common culprit and it's something that you DO or DON’T DO every single day of your life….
SLEEP!
Yes, sleep or the lack of it is one of the greatest contributors to weight gain, chronic disease and hormonal imbalances that will wreak havoc on your body regardless of your nutrition plan and exercise regimen.
So what can you do? The easy answer is SLEEP MORE! Yet as we know, simple and easy are not the same thing.
Join Emily and Joel as they talk about how creating a healthy sleep routine can help you supercharge your workouts and weight loss for good!

Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker
Have you ever gotten so busy in your day that you were unable to sit down to eat? Before you know it you have gone without a meal for 12 hours or more and find yourself on high alert to get food ASAP.
.
This may cause feelings of being hangry, light headed, weak or emotionally charged which can cause us to reach for foods that we know aren’t “the best” but will help to curb these uncomfortable feelings.
.
This type of cycle can lead us into increased inflammation, weakened immune systems and weight gain just to name a few.
.
But what if you had the power to go without food? What if you actually felt better skipping your meals? What if you lost weight, decreased inflammation, increased muscle and tissue repair and even lowered your chances of cancer and altheizmers?
.
Would you be interested?

What was school like for you? Did you love what you learned in grade school? Did you excel in High School? What was your biggest takeaway from graduating college?
.
We all have different experiences when it comes to school but the topics, structure and opportunities tend to be the same for all of us.
.
The question to explore is if the foundation and focus of schooling could be different? What would happen if we reached beyond the boundaries established by the education system? What would we learn? How would we grow?

Have you ever used these words before? “I never can stick to my diet” or “I try to lose weight but I always gain it back” or “diet’s just don’t work for me, I can’t help my genetics”.
If you are like most individuals who have struggled with starting and sticking with a diet, these sentences may be all too familiar.
But why all the drama? We know what we need to eat. We know that healthy organic foods are what our bodies need. Why can’t we just find what works and stick with it?
What if we took the drama out of going on a diet? What if eating healthy is just part of who we are instead of what we do? What if nutrition was easy?
Join me tomorrow at 12pm as I host language expert and nutritional specialist, Kimberly Kesting who will show you how to de-escalate your diet drama and create the lasting changes you have been looking for!

Do you find yourself motivated to make a change in your fitness, nutrition and life but after a period of time you lose your motivation?

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and expecting a different result. So what if this year you took a different approach? What if this year you focused more on what you are doing outside of the gym then in?

Whether it’s your boss, girlfriend, boyfriend, parents or friends; it just seems that everyone is against you and nobody understands.

In this episode I talk about The Victim Mentality and how with just a slight change of direction you can drastically change your life starting TODAY!
Do you struggle with getting to sleep or find yourself wide awake in the middle of the night tossing and turning?
If you are like most people on earth you probably don’t get the recommended 8 hours of sleep a night due to the fact that you are running a business, completing your masters, working two jobs, raising children and a host of other reasons and responsibilities that are keeping you up.
The problem is that lack of sleep is related to a host of health problems including memory loss, dementia, heart attacks, strokes, anxiety, depression, cancer, weight gain, diabetes and weakened immunity.
But what if there was a way to optimize your sleep so that you could get deeper, more restorative sleep in less time while avoiding the midnight wake up call? Would you be interested?
In this episode I talk with CEO of Eight Sleep Matteo Franceschetti about the groundbreaking sleep technology that is revolutionizing human performance and recovery so that you can sleep deeper and wake up lighter in less time than ever before.

4 Step Process
Do you feel like you should be farther along in life? Do you struggle to stay on track throughout your day? Are you easily distracted or derailed when a problem or situation arises?
.
It is not uncommon that most people answer YES to one, if not all of these questions.
.
It’s not that you aren’t motivated or ready for a change. The problem is that you don’t have the proper focus, because you don’t have the proper bandwidth.
.
By adjusting your bandwidth you will not only find drastic success, but you will achieve it in less time and with less stress than you ever thought possible.
.
In this show I breakdown how to change your bandwidth in 3 simple steps!

Do you ever find yourself feeling “rushed” throughout your day? Do you feel like there isn’t enough time for you to get everything done?
If you have ever felt the crushing pressure of an endless “To Do List” then you know exactly what I am talking about.
Although you try with all your might to squeeze productivity into every last minute of your day, you somehow end it feeling unaccomplished, unappreciated and completely exhausted.
Is this how it has to be? Is our fast paced society to blame? How can we be productive and still have time at the end of the day?
The answer doesn’t start with a better task management system or new calendar. The answer starts with how YOU structure your day to create the freedom that YOU want.
In today's episode I go over the exact system that I use for myself and all of my clients that will help you get MORE done, in LESS time and with less STRESS!

“Wise Speech is rarer and more valuable than gold and rubies” - Proverbs 20:15
.
The power of our words can make or break the very foundation that we stand on. From the way that we speak to ourselves or the way we talk to others, our words matter.
.
The question is, how often do you pay attention to the way you communicate? Our words have the power to build up and tear down the people around us and ourselves.
.
With the right communication we can land that new job, attract the right mate, inspire a nation and build our dreams.
.
With the wrong communication we can sabotage our careers, destroy our relationships and suppress our true self.

The good news is that better communication isn’t as hard as it seems! In this podcast I will not only teach you the secret to communication but also the guiding principles that will change the way you communicate forever!

Have you ever set a goal and not achieve it? Do you find yourself not wanting to set a goal due to the fear of failure?
.
We have all been there before….
.
Sitting at home and feeling down about our body, life, career or relationships and ready for a change.
.
We finally say enough is enough and we decide today is the day. With momentum building, we jump up to go for a run, start looking for a different career online, and binge watch motivational videos on YouTube.
.
Unfortunately, after a while that spark and momentum start to fade and we find ourselves back to square one feeling worse than when we started.
.
But what if I told you that it has nothing to do with your motivation or momentum? What if I told you that there is a better way for you to achieve your goals no matter what they are?
.
Join me This Thursday on the Ikon Blueprint Facebook Page at 12:30pm where I will be giving you my outline on how to set goals that will actually work! If you are ready for a change then you won’t want to miss this!

EPISODE 4: How To Reset Your Sleep
.
Do you struggle with falling asleep or staying asleep?
.
Do you find yourself staring up at the ceiling worrying about how many hours are left before you have to start your day?
.
Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning and hard for you to stay awake in the afternoon?
.
If you answered yes to any of these, then you are not alone! 1 out of 3 Americans are not getting enough sleep nightly and 1 out of 4 deal with acute insomnia that can last up to 3 months!
.
It is no wonder that people are turning to Sleep Aids to get relief which is estimated to be a 102 billion dollar industry by 2023!
.
But what if there was a simpler answer? One that doesn’t involve any fancy technology or putting yourself into a chemically induced coma?
.
Join me Thursday at 12:30pm on the Ikon Blueprint Facebook Group where I will break down simple steps that will not only help you fall asleep faster, but stay asleep!

Do you ever feel that understanding nutrition is sometimes harder than actually applying it?
.
You are not alone! One of the first things that new clients talk to me about is their diet and nutrition. They ask me what I think about the zone diet, the paleo diet, the mediterranean diet, the Atkins diet, the keto diet…. You get the point
.
With so many people hailing the newest and greatest diet which one is best for you? How about none of them!
.
Join me this tomorrow at 12:30 pm on the Ikon Blueprint Facebook page as I talk about my BULLETPROOF NUTRITION TIP that has yielded the greatest results time and time again and is so simple that you will think that I am lying!
Do you own your days or do your days own you?
.
It is not abnormal for most people to feel exhausted by the end of their work day. They start by rushing out the door because they are running late “again”, and then get to work only to start putting out “fires” before they have a chance to sit down.
.
Because of these unexpected fires, they get derailed from their day and find themselves scrambling to finish their work before they need to rush home to their family or are running late to meet up with friends.
.
By the time their heads hit the pillow they are exhausted but their mind is still running on all of the things that need to get done “tomorrow”.
.
After tossing and turning for what seems to be hours, they finally fall asleep only to be awaken moments later by an alarm reminding them that they have to start it all over again.
.
Does this sound familiar? Do you feel that you are always reacting to the days stressors, never seeming to be able to get ahead of them?
.
I have a solution for you and it’s as easy 1-2-3 and will change the trajectory of your work, relationships and health.
.
Join me this Thursday at 12:30pm on the Ikon Blueprint FaceBook group where I will be giving you my exact plan on how I own my days, weeks and months so that I have stress free days that are laser focused!
PISODE 1: WHY DIET AND EXERCISE DON'T WORK
.
Let me know if this sounds familiar?
.
You decide its time to get in shape so you sign up for the gym and start hitting it hard. You come home and count out your each macro of your meal so that you can stay dialed in.
.
But, after a month of doing everything right you still aren't seeing any changes that you set out to get.
.
Is it your diet? is it your exercise regimen?
.
What if I told you that it's neither? That there is a better solution to losing that stubborn fat, toning up those muscles and getting back your energy?
.
Join me on Thursday at 12:30pm as I uncover different techniques that will optimize your diet and exercise so that you can finally hit the goals you have always wanted!
