What if confidence was never supposed to come before an action?

In this episode, we're talking about what happened when each of us was forced to act long before we felt ready, and not one of us felt brave going in. The confidence showed up after, every single time, because taking action is where building confidence actually starts.

We get into why self doubt convinces you to wait for a feeling that only arrives through experience, what it means to do it scared, and how gathering evidence from everything you've already survived becomes the proof you can handle whatever comes next, plus:

  • Why waiting to feel ready is a confidence trap that keeps women postponing jobs, relationships, and dreams for years
  • How Elizabeth went from napping through oral reports to hosting a podcast, and why it had nothing to do with waking up brave
  • Why Tara's swim to islands a mile and a quarter offshore became the memory she borrows from every time something hard shows up
  • How Maria reframes overcoming fear with her clients
  • Why outsourcing your confidence to a goal weight, a paycheck, or a milestone keeps it permanently out of reach
  • What midlife women carry that younger women don't
  • How small, simple wins stack into the self trust that makes bigger changes possible

If you've ever put your life on hold waiting to figure out how to be more confident, this episode is your reminder that you're allowed to start scared, and that the confidence you've been waiting for is just on the other side.

Are you carrying emotional weight that no one else can see? Do stress symptoms show up in your stomach, chest, shoulders, or sleep? Have you ever wondered whether your body is trying to tell you something about the pressure you carry?

In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Laryssa Creswell, a licensed clinical professional counselor, who provides trauma-focused treatment for women and teen girls and authored The Invisible Weight We Carry.

We talk about the invisible weight women carry, how it can connect to family expectations and past experiences, and why the mind body connection matters when stress shows up physically. We also talk about what happens when medical answers do not explain the whole picture, and how we can begin noticing what is ours to carry and what is not.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What invisible weight really means and why it can feel so hard to name.
  • How the mental load of motherhood, work, relationships, and daily life can affect your body and mind.
  • Why physical stress symptoms may be connected to emotional stress, unresolved experiences, or old family patterns.
  • How stress in the body can show up through headaches, stomach issues, chest tightness, muscle tension, exhaustion, and other stress symptoms.
  • Why women often carry an emotional load that is shaped by expectations, caregiving, and the roles they were taught to play.
  • Why past experiences can still influence present stress responses

If you have ever felt like the stress in body is already speaking and you are carrying too much, but could not fully explain what “too much” even means, this episode will feel deeply validating.

What if menopause was never supposed to be something you had to fix?

So many women reach midlife hearing the same message over and over: lose the weight, cut the carbs, control your body, and then maybe you’ll feel healthy, confident, and in control.

In this episode, we’re joined by Jenn Salib Huber, registered dietitian and naturopathic doctor, to talk about what actually changes during perimenopause and menopause, why menopause weight gain can feel so loaded, and how body neutrality offers a different way to relate to your changing body.

We get into menopause nutrition, diet culture, menopause metabolism, carbohydrates, strength, sleep, community, and why women over 40 deserve support that is rooted in nutrition science instead of fear, plus:

  • Why menopause is the end of your period, not the end of you
  • How perimenopause nutrition can support energy without cutting carbs
  • Why menopause body changes do not mean your body is broken
  • How body trust helps you stop outsourcing every food and movement choice
  • Why healthy aging is about strength, mobility, connection, and care
  • How community can become a missing ingredient in midlife wellness

If you’ve ever felt confused by menopause advice, pressured to shrink your body, or unsure how to support yourself through this transition, this episode is your reminder that your body is not a problem to solve.

What if the food in your pantry could tell you more than what is on the nutrition label?

So many of us walk through the grocery store looking for foods that seem healthy, easy, and nourishing, but we are rarely taught to ask where those foods came from, how they were grown, or what was lost along the way. We see beautiful produce that may have no flavor, pantry staples that all look the same, and labels that make big claims without always helping us understand what is actually in the food we are feeding ourselves and our families.

In this episode, we’re talking with Sarela Herrada, co-founder of SIMPLi, a regenerative organic pantry brand known for beans, grains, and oils.

And instead of stopping at the usual conversation about protein, fiber, or what to buy at the store, Sarela helps us look at the bigger picture: how soil health, farming practices, indigenous agriculture, crop rotation, and food sourcing all shape the flavor, nutrition, and impact of what ends up on our plates.

We get into what regenerative organic actually means, why sustainable agriculture is about more than a farming trend, and how food systems affect everything from nutrient density to farmer fairness, plus:

  • Why nutrient dense food starts with the soil before it ever reaches your kitchen
  • How organic beans, grains, and oils can carry more flavor and nourishment
  • Why cooking beans from dried can be worth the extra step
  • What makes Simpli beans different from conventional pantry staples
  • Why food as medicine is not just a buzzword when we understand how food is grown
  • How indigenous agriculture has shaped regenerative practices for generations
  • Why asking where your food comes from can change the way you shop
  • What to look for when choosing better food for your everyday meals

If you’ve ever wondered whether your pantry staples are actually supporting your health, your values, and the kind of food system you want to participate in, this episode is your invitation to start asking important questions before your food ever hits the plate.

Let’s rebrand wellness together!

Stress does not always announce itself loudly. Sometimes it shows up quietly, in the way you lose patience faster, feel drained before the day begins, or keep pushing through because everything still feels “manageable enough.”

Many women spend years carrying responsibilities, meeting expectations, and moving through exhaustion without realizing how much stress has built up beneath the surface. What starts as feeling overwhelmed can slowly affect your energy, relationships, focus, and overall sense of well-being.

In this episode, we are joined by Chetna Sethi, owner of Luminous Connections LLC. Chetna is an author, occupational therapist, burnout prevention specialist, and lifestyle balance coach who helps people recognize the early signs of burnout and create healthier, more sustainable ways of living and working.

We talk about burnout in a way that goes beyond the usual conversation. Sometimes what we call burnout is actually pre-burnout, the stage where chronic stress begins to take a toll long before complete exhaustion sets in.

This conversation explores why burnout can be difficult to recognize, how everyday expectations can keep people stuck in unhealthy patterns, and why exhaustion is not always solved by simply trying harder. We also discuss the competing demands that pull at our time and energy, especially for women who are balancing work, family, relationships, and personal well-being.

In this episode you’ll learn i:

  • Early burnout symptoms and how chronic stress can build over time
    • Why burnout is not simply a resilience problem
    • How chronic stress can affect multiple areas of life
    • Why awareness is an important part of burnout prevention
    • The role workplace culture, organizational culture, and expectations can play in workplace burnout
    • Why meaningful work can still lead to exhaustion
    • Why burnout may be connected to a larger systems problem rather than individual failure

Before you push through another week on autopilot, listen in for a more compassionate way to understand burnout, balance, and the stress you may have been carrying for too long.

What if beauty was never supposed to be something you had to earn?

So many women reach midlife carrying the same message they were handed for years: Lose the weight, do your hair, wear the makeup, change your body, and then maybe you’ll feel beautiful. Maybe you’ll feel confident. Maybe you’ll finally feel like you are enough.

In this episode, we’re talking about what happened when Maria was invited to speak at a women’s beauty and self-love event, only to realize that another speaker was planning to frame weight loss as a path to self-love.

And instead of staying quiet, saying yes, and ignoring the discomfort, Maria asked the question that changed the whole conversation: what message do you actually want women to leave with?

We get into what it means to speak up when a message does not align with your values, why beauty and body value get tied together so easily, and how powerful it can be to name the contradiction when self-love is being sold through appearance pressure, plus:

  • Why Maria almost turned down the event and what made her speak up instead
  • How beauty culture and diet culture can work together to make women question their value
  • Why losing weight should never be framed as the reason someone becomes worthy, lovable, or confident
  • Why you do not have to educate everyone, but you can choose to plant a seed when someone seems reachable
  • Why speaking up can create a ripple effect, especially when the person listening has influence in her own community
  • What it looks like to redefine beauty beyond the mirror and build self-love that is not based on appearance

If you’ve ever struggled with body comments, beauty standards, or the pressure to change yourself before you’re allowed to feel good, this episode is your reminder that you are allowed to question the message and choose something more aligned.

Have you ever eaten past the point of fullness and immediately thought, “What is wrong with me?”

Maybe you told yourself you had no self-control. Maybe you promised you would start over on Monday. Maybe you felt guilty, frustrated, or ashamed, then tried to fix it with another plan, another set of rules, or another attempt to “be good.”

In this episode, we’re talking about the restrict binge cycle, and why the story you’ve been told about it may be completely wrong.

Because what if your eating patterns are not a sign that you need more willpower or self-control? What if your body is responding exactly the way it was designed to respond? And what if the very thing you keep turning to for control is the thing keeping you stuck?

We’re breaking down why food restriction can lead to intense cravings, overeating, and shame, and why willpower is not the answer most people think it is. We also talk about the sneaky ways restriction can show up, even when you are not technically “on a diet.”

You'll learn:

  • What the restrict binge cycle is and why so many people get stuck in it
  • Why overeating is not always a lack of self-control
  • How physical restriction and mental restriction can both affect your relationship with food
  • How hunger hormones shift when your body feels deprived, and why willpower was never going to win that fight
  • Why certain foods can feel more tempting when you label them as “bad” or off-limits
  • Why the guilt and shame after a binge keep the binge cycle alive long after the eating stops
  • How diet culture profits from making you believe you are the problem
  • Why self-compassion is such an important part of healing your relationship with food

This conversation is for anyone who has ever felt like they cannot trust themselves around food. We hope it helps you see that your body is not the enemy, and that there may be a much kinder, more freeing way forward.

Have you ever said yes and felt your stomach drop the second the word left your mouth? Have you ever gone along with something, not because you wanted to, but because saying no felt too risky, too selfish, or just too hard?

That discomfort has a name, and it runs a lot deeper than conflict avoidance or wanting to keep the peace. People pleasing is a fear based pattern, and in this episode, we get into what's really driving it, why saying no can feel almost impossible, and what it actually costs you when your self worth gets tied to how much you give.

In this episode, you'll hear:

  • What people pleasing in relationships really looks like: overgiving, over-helping, and automatically going along with what everyone else wants
  • Where genuine kindness ends and self abandonment begins, and how to recognize which one's driving you
  • How self worth, approval seeking, and conditional love shape the way you try to stay accepted and loved
  • Why body image can become another arena where people pleasers learn to seek approval and shrink themselves to fit in
  • How simple boundary language can help you pause before the automatic yes takes over
  • Why learning to sit with discomfort is the real path to choosing yourself

If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's comfort, this one's for you. Your self worth was never supposed to depend on how much you help, how agreeable you are, or how well you keep the peace.

What if the reason you hate working out isn’t because you’re lazy, but because the space was never built with you in mind?

Most of us have been there. You walk into a gym, the mirrors are everywhere, someone yells something about burning off the weekend, and you spend the whole class watching yourself and wondering why you don't look like everyone else.

In this episode, we get into why boutique fitness has become as much about belonging as exercise, the emotional exhaustion of fitness culture, and why Tara thinks most people don’t actually hate working out nearly as much as they hate the experience surrounding it, plus:

  • Why she removed the mirrors from her fitness studio entirely and what that one decision says about everything else she's built
  • How she's created a fitness community where the energy people walk in with is protected and the judgment doesn't get through the door
  • What strength training for women looks like when the goal is chasing strong instead of chasing skinny
  • How she runs a genuinely body positive gym without making it a whole thing every single session
  • Why belonging, safety, and joy turn out to be the health behaviors that actually keep people consistent and what HAES fitness has to do with it

If you've always had a heavy feeling before, during and after going to your fitness studio, you'll need to hear what Tara shared in this episode about inclusive fitness as it's such a breath of fresh air.

For so many women, the word "metabolism" has become tied to frustration, body shame, and the feeling that something must be wrong with them. You try to eat less, move more, push harder, and still feel like your body is not responding the way you hoped it would. Metabolism gets talked about constantly, but almost never explained correctly.

But what if your body is not fighting against you at all, and has actually been trying to protect you this entire time?

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Alyssa Olenick. She holds a PhD in Exercise Physiology, is a certified sports nutritionist, and a CrossFit Level 2 Trainer whose entire research background is rooted in metabolism and metabolic health. She is also a competitive strength athlete and ultramarathon runner who trains the way she teaches. What she brings to this conversation is the kind of clarity around women's health, strength training, and cardiovascular fitness that most women never get access to from a single source.

In this episode, you will discover:

  • The part of metabolic health that has nothing to do with calories or weight
  • What most women are never told about how resistance training actually works in the body
  • What your fitness level actually signals about your long term women's health
  • Why endurance training and strength training are not interchangeable, and why that distinction matters
  • How hybrid training fits into a real schedule without overhauling everything you are already doing
  • What cardio workout routines are actually building in your body over time
  • Where athletic performance fits in even if you have never thought of yourself as an athlete

This conversation is grounded in science but written for real life, and it meets you exactly where you are with your body and your health.

The science of how your body works is not as complicated as it has been made out to be, and this episode shows exactly why.

Have you ever felt like your mood, focus, and energy are all over the place, and you cannot quite figure out why? It can be frustrating when you are doing your best with healthy eating, but something still feels off mentally and physically.

A lot of the advice out there focuses on cutting things out, following strict plans, or chasing the latest supplement trend. But what if supporting your brain health started with adding more of what your body actually needs instead of taking things away?

In this episode, Amanda Ashcraft and Ann Kent, co-authors of The Brain Plate, dive into how nutritional science influences food, mood, and behavior. They discuss the gut-brain connection, the importance of balancing blood sugar for sustained energy, and how fueling your body properly supports both mental and physical well-being.

We also touch on supplement safety, dive into what supplement facts really mean, and share a grounded approach to nourishing your body without the confusion of trends.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How fueling your body properly supports cognitive function, especially with carbohydrates
  • Why intuitive eating is essential to rebuilding trust with your body and hunger cues
  • How to think about ADHD support in ways that make mealtime easier
  • Simple, sustainable approaches to midlife nutrition without restrictive diets
  • What to prioritize before adding supplements, and how to figure out what your body really needs

If you're trying to better understand your energy, mood, or focus, this episode gives you practical advice on how to nourish your body and mind for lasting health.

Ever feel like the number on the scale determines whether it’s a good or bad day?

You’re not alone. While the scale is just a tool, for a lot of us, it has become the thing that decides how the whole day goes.

That kind of hold does not come from nowhere. It builds over years of being taught that the number means something about you, your discipline, your worth, your right to feel good in your own skin.

In this episode, we'll put into light a conversation most women have only in their heads and would never say out loud. We get into how a better body image IS possible even when scale anxiety is high, and how the SHIFT framework can play a role in helping you promote a better relationship with yourself and your body.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • How to get over your scale obsession by identifying the story you carry every time you step on the scale
  • Why how you feel seconds after seeing that number influences your mood and daily choices more than you think and how to take back control
  • How to use the SHIFT framework to rebuild your self worth, eliminate scale anxiety and improve the relationship with your body
  • What body acceptance can look like when loving your body is not yet on the table
  • How to set small, tangible goals that make healing feel less overwhelming
  • Why weight fluctuations are not a verdict on who you are
  • What to do when you don't know how to stop weighing yourself and what to do instead
  • How the most challenging parts of this healing process are signs of positive changes

This conversation doesn’t pretend that body acceptance and healing your self worth is a straight line. So, if you're ready for something more honest and grounded, we invite you to step into this episode before stepping back on that scale

Do you stare into your refrigerator every night at 6:00 PM, wondering what to feed your family? What sounds simple can quickly feel heavy when you are trying to make good choices, manage a busy schedule, and feed a family with different needs.

In this episode, we explore the hidden stress of dinner planning, especially for parents managing picky eaters and the constant pressure to create balanced meals with the right protein-carb combinations and healthy fats.

We also share ways to make things easier. From building a list of core meals to using a cycle menu, doing a pantry audit, and thinking about the division of feeding responsibility, the focus is on lowering kitchen stress with practical systems that actually fit real life.

In this conversation, we cover:

  • How to repurpose one cooked component into multiple different meals throughout the week.
  • Why decision fatigue makes meal planning harder than it needs to be
  • Ways these systems can simplify simple family dinners
  • How a recipe club can help reduce the mental load of daily food choices

Sometimes the hardest part is not cooking the meal. It is carrying the weight of deciding, again and again, what feeding your family is supposed to look like.

If your 80-year-old self was sitting next to you today, what would she wish you had done differently? What do you think would change if you treated your 80 year old self like someone you truly loved and wanted to protect? Can you picture the life you are building for your future self, not just emotionally, but in the way you move, connect, and care for yourself each day?

The habits you build today, especially around physical activity and emotional awareness, shape the strength and joy you carry into later life. Small choices, repeated over time, can support better joint health, stronger leg strength, and the kind of resilience that helps you stay engaged in your own life.

This episode begins with a simple doctor visit, then it opens into a bigger reflection on intentional aging. We will learn how movement, mindset, and social connection influence the kind of life we carry into older age, and what it really means to support longevity for women in ways that feel practical and personal.

Today, we talk about:

  • How visualization can help you make better choices for your future health
  • Why strength training matters for preventing falls, protecting mobility, and supporting independence as you age
  • How emotional fitness helps you handle change, loss, and the mental side of growing older
  • Why grip strength is an important sign of overall vitality and long-term function

If you care about living well for the long run and want real, grounded healthy aging strategies, this episode will leave you thinking differently about the choices you make now, and the life you are shaping for your older self.

Episode 187 - Wounds and Scars

View Details

Our life scars often come from the moments we never expected, parental divorce, friendship loss, grief, betrayal, and the experiences that quietly reshape us over time.

What if those painful chapters are not proof that something is wrong with you, but part of your life resume, a reflection of everything you have survived along the way? What if they speak to your strength and your ability to keep moving forward?

We explore how difficult experiences become part of who we are, and how healing can begin when we stop pretending we are untouched by them. We talk about the power of naming our wounds, the role of an inner circle during hard seasons, and why emotional resilience is not about avoiding pain but learning how to carry it with compassion. The conversation also touches on coping with infant loss, healing from betrayal, and the lasting impact these experiences can have on personal growth.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How vulnerability strength can help you feel more supported, seen, and connected.
  • What grief recovery can teach us about survival, healing, and self-compassion.
  • Why daily habits can make hard seasons easier to navigate with more steadiness.
  • How sharing your story with trusted people can create space for healing.
  • Why viewing your past through a more compassionate lens can change how you see yourself.

Let this conversation be a reminder that healing does not erase your story. It only helps you carry it with more grace.

Episode 186 - Women with Scars (Christa Welch)

View Details

Have you ever looked at your emotional scars and felt like they were something you needed to hide instead of acknowledge?

Many women carry visible (and invisible) scars and deeper life experiences that stay with them over time. These moments can leave an emotional wound that shapes how you see yourself and how you move through your life.

In this episode, we are joined by Christa Welch, a licensed clinical social worker and founder of Betty Center. She shares the story behind a powerful photography project that invites women to be seen in a more honest and compassionate way.

We talk about how the Women with Scars exhibition supports authentic living by helping women reconnect with their stories. Christa also shares how her mother shaped her vision for a healing space for women, along with the meaning behind capturing women in natural settings.

She opens up about her divorce and her experience as a survivor of cancer, which strengthened her commitment to supporting others through overcoming trauma. We also explore overcoming shame through connection, honesty, and finding people who can hold space without judgment.

You’ll learn in this episode:

  • Why your experiences can support growth and strengthen your sense of personal resilience
  • How a supportive environment can help women build self compassion for women and feel more grounded
  • The role of storytelling in supporting emotional repair and deeper understanding
  • How connection and community, including single mother support , can help during difficult life transitions
  • Simple ways to reconnect with your body and emotions through practices that support holistic wellness for women

If you’ve been searching for guidance around substance abuse, healing, or understanding your own scars, this episode offers a grounded perspective that encourages care, reflection, mindful movement, and forward progress.

The fitness industry often suggests that if you're not gasping for breath and drenched in sweat, your activity doesn't count.

But what if progress lies in the moments when you're resting, not pushing beyond your limits? "More" isn't always better, so how do we separate the hype from the science behind HIIT?

In this episode, we will guide you through the realities of interval training, debunk some common myths, and show you how to use it effectively for your health.

We discuss how the fitness world has tweaked the original concept of HIIT, making people feel they need to work harder with less rest. Tara explains how exercise intensity affects your body, why your heart and lungs need recovery time to benefit from a sprint, and why she includes strength training in her classes. We also dive into focusing on body movement without falling into diet culture's pressures.

You’ll discover:

  • Why HIIT benefits are best achieved through short bursts of intensity rather than long, exhausting sessions.
  • How to distinguish between aerobic and anaerobic movement to maximize your metabolic effect.
  • What to look for in active recovery and rest periods to strengthen your heart and lungs.
  • Why workout consistency matters more than chasing fitness trends, especially when you're under stress.

Take this opportunity to redefine your relationship with intensity and boost your cardiovascular health while improving your physical activity level.

Have you ever stepped into a weight room and felt so self aware that the fear of being judged almost made you walk straight back out? That split second of doubt can stop you before you even begin, and it can block you from finding a way to move your body that feels freeing instead of forced.

That tension feeds fitness comparison, where you size up your progress against someone else’s highlight reel. Today, we break down why feeling out of place is a normal stress response and how a small shift in perspective can help you build real confidence.

In this episode, we explore:

  • How to navigate gym anxiety by understanding your brain's natural scan for social threats.
  • The impact of physical appearance on your willingness to try new things.
  • Why adopting a learner mindset allows you to "butcher" the moves while you grow.
  • Practical gym etiquette to help you move from outsider to part of the community.
  • Using exposure therapy principles to gradually increase your comfort in group fitness settings.

We’ll also go over how stepping away from a high-pressure movement culture creates the space you need to master intuitive eating. We are sharing the strategies that help you build a sustainable exercise habit as a form of healthy self care rather than a punishment.

If you are ready to start showing up fully for yourself, this episode is for you.

Has your pursuit of food freedom has turned into a chaotic free for all that leaves you feeling more sluggish than supported? Many assume intuitive eating means eating whatever sounds good in the moment. Taste becomes the only guide. That idea often leads to confusion, especially for those trying to step away from diet culture and follow a non diet approach.

In this episode, we explore what eating intuitively really looks like in practice. It is a blend of internal cues, emotions, and rational thought. When those three work together, you begin to build body intuition and a deeper sense of body respect.

We talk about how mindful eating plays a role in this process and why it takes time to develop. You will hear how this approach creates space for both satisfaction and nourishing meals, without turning food into a new set of rules.

This conversation focuses on:

  • How gentle nutrition fits into this process without turning it into strict rules
  • The role of nutrient dense foods in creating meals that support your energy and digestion
  • How to balance cravings with awareness instead of relying on taste alone
  • Ways to recognize patterns in your eating habits and body responses
  • How emotional eating support helps you better understand your relationship with food

Food neutrality becomes easier when you remove judgment and allow yourself to experiment. Over time, you stop labeling foods as good or bad and start making decisions based on what your body actually needs.

Rebuilding trust with your body can feel challenging. This episode offers a grounded way to approach this work without turning it into another rigid system

Do you ever feel like the food industry is moving faster than you can keep up with? Between viral products, changing claims, and nonstop noise, it can be hard to tell what actually matters.

In this episode, Elizabeth takes us inside expo west for a behind-the-scenes look at what’s emerging in food trends, the evolving grocery future, and the bigger conversation around food innovation. What she noticed opens up a thoughtful conversation about how products are positioned, how perception is shaped, and why so many people feel overwhelmed trying to make sense of it all.

This episode explores the growing pull of future foods, the influence of food marketing, and the subtle ways wellness marketing affects everyday shopping decisions. It also speaks directly to the food confusion and nutrition confusion that can build when bold claims, trendy ingredients, and conflicting advice all compete for attention.

Rather than getting swept up in hype, this conversation invites a more grounded look at ingredient transparency, personalized nutrition, and what it means to support holistic wellbeing in a landscape shaped by shifting grocery trends and broader wellness trends. If you’ve been craving a steadier way to think about nutrient dense foods as a health conscious consumer, this episode will leave you with plenty to reflect on.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What expo west reveals about where the food industry may be heading
  • Which food trends are starting to shape the grocery future
  • How food innovation is influencing the conversation around future foods
  • Why food marketing and wellness marketing matter more than many people realize
  • What may be fueling so much food confusion and nutrition confusion
  • Why ingredient transparency matters to today’s health conscious consumer
  • How shopping decisions are shaped by more than nutrition alone
  • Where personalized nutrition connects to changing grocery trends
  • Why nutrient dense foods still matter amid rising wellness trends
  • How all of this connects back to holistic wellbeing

If you’ve been trying to sort through mixed messages and understand what today’s wellness conversation is really asking of you, this episode offers a thoughtful place to begin.

Do you ever feel annoyed when your mind races during a meditation practice instead of staying perfectly quiet? You’re not alone.

The great news is that you can transform your health by realizing that the true goal of a meditation practice is simply noticing where your thoughts go rather than trying to force an empty mind.

In this episode, we walk you through the tenets of mindfulness skills and how to use them to support your health.

We talk about how the present moment is often missed because we are stuck in the past or the future. We explain that a consistent meditation practice is like a metaphor for our intuitive eating journey, where we learn to sit with discomfort and practice self compassion rather than judgment. We explore how tuning into physical sensations can strengthen your body connection and help you navigate life's "waves" more effectively.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How to define mindful awareness using five specific tenets.
  • What to do when you notice your thoughts drifting away from the present moment.
  • Why an anchor point , like your breath, is essential for staying grounded.
  • How mindful breathing techniques exercise your "pause muscle".
  • Why active listening to your body is a foundational skill.
  • What the science says about guided meditation benefits for brain health
  • How to improve emotional regulation by observing thoughts like passing clouds.
  • Why debunking meditation myths makes the practice more accessible.

If you’ve been searching for a better body connection, self compassion, and mindfulness skills, this episode is your invitation to begin your intuitive eating journey.

Ever experienced having a stranger snap at you in a movie theater line and felt that sting of anger for the rest of the day?

This not only drains your energy, it keeps you from seeing the truth.

We often make big assumptions about people based on one stressful moment and forget that everyone carries a heavy load that we cannot see. And these tense moments lock you into a scarcity mindset where the whole world feels like it is out to get you.

In this episode, we talk about why a stranger's bad mood is not a reflection of your value and how you can find a grounded path toward self assurance by changing how you view the world. We’ll explore:

  • The "Q-Tip" rule to protect your emotional well-being
  • Why shrinking your skills hurts your self confidence
  • Moving from competition to community building
  • How social support and workplace wellness change your daily life
  • Making a permanent mindset shift to fuel business growth

We’ll also talk about how nourishing your inner life through better relationships creates the foundation you need to master intuitive eating. We are sharing the life lessons that help you grow with intention and show up more fully in your relationships and your work.

If you are ready to stop playing small and start practicing deeper human connection, this episode is for you. These are the same steps we use in our wellness work to protect your energy and support real personal growth.

If self worth wasn’t tied to how much you accomplish each day, who would you be beneath the endless to-do list?

Under the invisible load of modern life, many of us keep dozens of mental tabs open. By midlife, you may be the primary emotional caretaker, always showing up for everyone else while your wellness journey quietly falls aside.

In this episode, we share breakthroughs from our recent wellness retreat centered on the art of rest and reset. We explore how your human value exists beyond being "useful" to society and how witnessing others embrace this truth refines your perspective on intuitive living.

Here’s what we unpack in this episode:

  • How to set healthy boundaries without guilt and release the pressure to be everything for everyone
  • The powerful role of community support in female empowerment and rediscovering your voice
  • Why a wellness retreat can become a transformative catalyst for deep rest, clarity, and personal growth

Stay until the end as we share the powerful question from our recent women’s community retreat that helped shift everything, moving from anticipating everyone else’s needs to finally honoring your own.

Have you ever felt like being 'put together' is just the tax you have to pay to be taken seriously? Whether you’re navigating the pressures of motherhood, a demanding career, or just a Sunday morning, there is this relentless weight of social media pressure telling us that our pretty privilege is our most valuable currency.

But what if your self worth wasn’t something you had to earn through a gym membership or a skincare routine?

Your worthiness is inherent, not earned. When we stop viewing our bodies as projects, we find genuine emotional well-being, where the goal isn’t looking 'better,' but finally feeling at home in our own skin.

And to bring it all together, in this episode we’re talking about:

  • Moving from external beauty standards to internal validation
  • Practical steps to improve body confidence without the hustle
  • How to start intuitive eating and rebuild your mind body connection by shifting away from diet culture

We’re going to share the specific questions we’ve started asking ourselves whenever we feel that urge to 'fix' our appearance. It’s a collective shift that has completely redefined our individual wellness journey experiences, and we’re giving you the practical tools to stop performing and start living with a plan that feels like a relief instead of a chore.

Remember, your value is not a "price of admission" that you have to pay with your appearance.

Do you ever feel like you’re doing everything right all day only to lose control with food the second you walk through your front door? Most people think they have a willpower problem, when they actually have an unmet physical or emotional need.

It can be common to feel like you’re stuck in a cycle of grazing through the kitchen after a long day of work. Many people try to choose healthy-habit snacks like carrots when they secretly want something sweet, leading to a cascade of overeating. Others are struggling with feeling disconnected from our hunger cues, unsatisfied with their food choices, or decision fatigue.

Finding peace with your evening routine is absolutely possible. But instead of searching for more willpower, we want to help you understand what needs your body may be trying to communicate to you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why you experience phantom eating when your actual physical needs are not being met
  • How to build a wind-down routine to transition from a stressful day without a snack spiral
  • The way to identify hidden patterns in your wellness journey to regain a sense of control
  • What it feels like to move away from diet culture and toward true food freedom
  • How mindful eating and satisfying snacks can help you end the cycle of rebound eating
  • We also touch on how decision fatigue contributes to emotional eating and why you must trust the process of learning to listen to your body.

Taking these steps will help you prioritize your emotional wellness, and build a more supportive relationship with food. By choosing satisfying snacks and practicing intuitive eating, you can start to trust yourself again in the kitchen.

Have you ever felt discouraged by what you see in fitness posts online?

A scroll through your feed can quickly stir up body image issues, especially when before and after photos are used as proof of success. But what these photos often leave out is important context like effort, mindset, and overall well-being.

In this episode, we take a closer look at the impact of transformation marketing and how it shapes our ideas about health. You’ll hear why these visuals often reflect diet culture and social media influence, instead of reflecting what really matters. They rarely capture non-scale victories or signs of emotional wellness and self-worth that are harder to see, but more meaningful over time.

We talk about how constant exposure to “ideal” bodies can trigger weight stigma and lead to harmful patterns like weight cycling. These messages can pull you away from intuitive eating, movement that feels good, and even connection with your body. The pressure to chase visual results can chip away at confidence and joy in the process.

Instead of relying on narrow ideas of success, we explore what real progress looks like in everyday life. Think strength gains, reduced pain, improved energy, or simply feeling calm in your body. These shifts reflect true health, even if they never show up in a photo.

You’ll also learn how to step back from harmful messages by doing a digital detox. Curating your feed can create more space for things that align with health at every size, mental health in fitness, and body neutrality, so you can start defining wellness in your own terms.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What before and after photos miss about your actual progress
  • Why body image messaging in fitness often leads to emotional stress
  • How intuitive eating and body neutrality shift the focus toward self-worth
  • The connection between transformation marketing and weight stigma
  • Steps to reclaim your feed and prioritize mental health in fitness

If this episode helped you see fitness culture in a new light, share it with a friend who’s ready to ditch the pressure and define progress on their own terms.

Do you ever feel like you're doing everything “right” with food, but still feel stuck in your body and unsure about your choices? Maybe you’ve tried to eat clean, count points, or follow the plan, only to feel even more confused or frustrated.

In this episode, we open up about the deep impact of diet culture. From childhood restrictions to careers shaped by body expectations, we share how messages around body image, weight, and control shape our choices long before we realize it.

This honest conversation explores the roots of disordered eating, the guilt of emotional eating, and the struggle to feel at home in a changing body. You’ll hear how cultural pressures and family patterns can shape your choices around eating, increase food obsession, affect your sense of body autonomy, and lower your confidence in making decisions about food and movement.

You’ll learn how phrases like “clean eating” and “getting your body back” after pregnancy feed into the binge restrict cycle, reinforce weight stigma, and disrupt the ability to connect with your body’s needs. If you’ve ever blamed yourself for a craving or tied your worth to your reflection, this is a safe space to pause and ask why.

We share what helped us move toward intuitive eating and how shifting to an anti-diet approach allowed us to find real food freedom. Whether you're navigating life in a post-pregnancy body or just tired of chasing food rules, this episode will remind you that you can support your health without judgment or control.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How childhood messages around food can lead to lasting patterns
  • What makes a relationship with food feel obsessive or disconnected
  • Why body image pressure shows up differently across life stages
  • How generational beliefs and culture shape your approach to eating
  • What it looks like to shift toward body trust, compassion, and calm

If your brain is always spinning about meals or your value feels linked to a number, you're not alone. There’s a gentler path grounded in intuitive nutrition, body acceptance, and health at every size. It starts with curiosity, not criticism.

Is weight loss truly the path to health? Most of us have been taught that it is, but if you’ve ever felt uneasy about that narrative, there are valid reasons why.

In this episode, we sit down with Evelyn Tribole, co-creator of intuitive eating, to unpack why so many of us feel confused, frustrated, or pressured when it comes to our bodies. Together, we explore how diet culture, misleading medical trends, and misinformation have warped our view of health.

You’ll hear why true informed consent is critically missing from today's conversations about GLP-1 drugs, such as Ozempic, and why that matters for your long-term safety. Evelyn explains how tuning into your hunger cues and developing interoceptive awareness are actually the missing keys to real physical and emotional well-being. We also dive into the science of how chronic weight cycling can quietly harm your health more than weight itself.

This conversation reveals how nutrition education should be used to rebuild body trust, not destroy it. If you’ve ever felt caught between taking care of yourself and escaping harmful food rules, this episode offers a new path.

Finally, we discuss why a weight inclusive approach, rooted in frameworks like Health at Every Size and body neutrality, is the secret to sustainable health. Tune in to learn how to finally find peace in your food relationship.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • Why intuitive eating is about more than just hunger and fullness
  • How current weight loss trends are ignoring informed consent
  • What your body is trying to tell you through interoceptive awareness
  • How to protect your mental health while pursuing physical well-being
  • Why respect for all bodies must be the foundation of healthcare

This episode is about reclaiming your agency in a world that profits from your insecurity. Whether you are navigating complex health choices or simply want to feel at home in your body again, we hope this conversation empowers you to break the cycle of suffering and embrace a more compassionate, evidence-based path forward.

For too long, we’ve been told that our self-worth is tied to our waistline, turning body image into a constant battleground rather than a source of strength.

The pressure to conform to certain beauty standards is all around us, often making us feel like our value is determined by how we look. Society pushes us to meet specific expectations, making it hard to focus on what really matters: our health, our personal growth, and who we truly are. It’s time to shift our focus to true women’s wellness, where we focus on nurturing ourselves instead of trying to meet external expectations..

In this episode of Wellness Rebranded, we talk with AliceAnne Loftus, founder of Leading Lady Coaching. AliceAnne has dedicated her work to supporting women in leadership, while also building communities where women support, empower, and amplify other women. In 2023, she took a bold leap to make her community a diet culture free safe zone.

We discuss the power of women supporting women and how creating spaces for empowering women in business can have a lasting impact. Alice Anne shares her personal story of struggling with body image and how she learned to embrace body positivity and intuitive eating. She talks about how shifting her focus from external expectations to her own well-being changed her approach to leadership and life.

This episode is for anyone who has felt trapped by societal beauty standards or stuck in the cycle of diet culture. Here’s what you’ll get to learn:

  • Body image pressure can pull focus from your goals, relationships, and daily life
  • Self-worth is not earned through discipline, size, or approval
  • Intuitive eating can help you rebuild trust with food and your body
  • Women’s wellness includes mental health, stress, and support, not just appearance
  • Body positivity grows faster in rooms built on women supporting women

Join us as we rethink what it means to take care of ourselves and each other, in both our personal lives and our businesses.

Feeling like food is taking up way too much brain space?

You're not alone and it's more common than you think.

The constant overthinking, the mental load you carry around eating, and the pressure built from years of unspoken rules is exhausting and easy to miss because it’s been normalized. But that doesn’t mean it’s healthy, and it definitely doesn’t have to stay that way.

In this episode, we unpack what it really means when your thoughts are constantly circling around food, eating, and your body. We will explore how diet culture, food tracking apps, and overwhelming food rules can lead to food obsession, chronic overthinking, and a disconnect from your body’s natural cues.

This conversation normalizes the mental load so many women carry about food and introduces key mindset shifts rooted in intuitive eating, mindful eating, and health at every size. You’ll hear how cultural messaging, past dieting patterns, and body mistrust can quietly erode self-trust and lead to patterns like emotional eating, food anxiety, and even disordered eating.

You’ll also learn the difference between a healthy level of food awareness and the kind that drains your energy and joy. If you've been craving more peace, less guilt, and a better relationship with food, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a new way forward.

You’ll learn:

  • What it looks like when food takes up too much brain space
  • The connection between body image, control, and food-related stress
  • How body trust and food freedom start with unlearning cultural messages
  • Why overthinking food is often a symptom of larger emotional or identity struggles
  • What a healthy relationship with food can actually feel like in daily life

Healing isn’t a solo project—community is a real wellness intervention.

In this episode, Maria breaks down why emotional and mental wellbeing improves when we’re supported, witnessed, and validated by other people, not just “checked on,” but truly seen. She shares what it means to feel emotionally seen, how that kind of connection can calm the nervous system, and why so many of us default to fixing, minimizing, or rushing past emotions instead of holding space.

Maria shares what she learned from 12 years working in an emergency room, including how quickly someone can shift when they feel safe, understood, and not judged. That lived experience sparked her creation of the Emotional Fitness Studio, an “emotional gym” where people build emotional awareness and practical tools through shared experiences, not just information.

Whether you’re local or not, the episode ends with actionable ways to create emotional-fitness moments in everyday life, at home, in the car, in relationships, through curiosity, attention, and making space for all emotions.

In this episode:

  • Healing often happens faster when you’re supported in community instead of trying to carry everything alone.
  • Feeling emotionally seen—acknowledged, validated, accepted—can settle the nervous system in real time.
  • Shared experience reduces shame and helps people feel less isolated in what they’re carrying.
  • You can create “emotional fitness” anywhere by noticing, asking curious questions, and resisting the urge to fix.
  • Safe spaces are built through intention, care, and welcoming all emotions without judgment.

Feeling like movement would help, but still choosing the couch is more common than we admit.

In this episode, the Wellness: Rebranded hosts unpack why so many women want to move their bodies but feel too exhausted, overwhelmed, or mentally drained to do it. The conversation begins by normalizing this experience and naming the difference between physical exhaustion and mental load, especially in seasons of burnout.

This episode also introduces practical reframes like exercise snacks, the five-minute rule, redefining what movement looks like in daily life, and the importance of support and scheduling. The core message is clear: wellness is personal, movement isn’t one-size-fits-all, and exhaustion is a signal—not a failure.

In this episode:

  • Mental and emotional exhaustion can block movement more than physical fatigue
  • Shame and “shoulds” make movement harder, not easier
  • Short bursts of movement still count and can improve energy
  • Enjoyment matters more than intensity or location
  • Rest and movement both belong in a sustainable wellness routine

Have you noticed that fiber seems like the new wellness darling?

Almost overnight, influencers, headlines, and health gurus have shifted their focus to a trend called fibermaxxing — complete with daily targets, checklists, and potentially, a whole lot of pressure to “get it right.”

Join us as we take a closer look at what fibermaxxing actually is, why it’s gaining so much popularity, and what to consider if you’ve been thinking about giving it a try. We also explore what this wellness moment reveals about diet culture as a whole—and how quickly “helpful” advice can turn into another source of pressure.

Along the way, we dig into an important conversation on fiber, including the difference between getting it from whole foods versus supplements and “fiber-added” products, and why more isn’t always better, especially for digestion and gut health, an.

In this episode:

  • Why fiber has become wellness culture’s latest fixation
  • When “more” fiber helps—and when it might backfire
  • The unintended consequences of common nutrition messaging
  • How simple, balanced nourishment supports long-term health

Rest is not the same as restoration, and your nervous system can feel the difference. If you’re exhausted from “getting through the day,” this conversation is for you.

In this episode, Tara, Maria, and Elizabeth unpack the difference between rest, relaxation, and true restoration and why your nervous system desperately needs all three. They explore what burnout really feels like in mid-life, especially for women juggling motherhood, marriage, careers, emotional labor, and the invisible mental load.

They also introduce Exhale, their in-person one-day retreat in Annapolis designed to help you feel safe, seen, supported, and truly restored alongside other women.

  • Recognize the signs of a depleted nervous system and how distraction and over-responsibility keep you stuck in survival mode.
  • Learn how time and energy function as boundaries, and why saying “no” (even to your kids) can be a powerful act of self-respect.
  • Get practical ideas for creating restorative rituals that fit into real life, from simple shower routines to mindset shifts and reframes.
  • Hear how the Exhale retreat in Annapolis is designed to remove your mental load, offer co-regulation, and give you a full day of being safe, seen, and supported.

A clearer relationship with food begins with understanding the habits you barely notice. Today’s conversation cuts through confusion and reveals the patterns driving how you eat… often without realizing it.

Elizabeth walks Tara and Maria through her seven-question quiz, a simple tool that uncovers your unique eating style and the hidden beliefs shaping your choices. From unconscious eating to emotional patterns to simple gaps in nutrition knowledge, the hosts unpack how wildly different these experiences can look and why awareness is the key to change.

This episode is for any woman who keeps “starting over on Monday,” feels stuck in repeating habits, or wants to understand food without judgment, shame, or diet culture.

Take the “What Type Of Eater Are You?” Quiz: https://elizabethharrisnutrition.com/quiz

In this episode:
• Why unconscious eating looks different for everyone
• How hidden beliefs and guilt drive eating habits
• Why understanding your “eating personality” is essential for lasting change
• Practical ways to simplify meals without dieting
• How Elizabeth’s quiz gives you clarity and next-step guidance

Losing your voice can become the moment you finally decide to hear yourself. This episode is a raw, vulnerable look at what happens when life forces you to stop, sit down, and re-meet the woman you really are.

Maria introduces a new layer of the Wellness: Rebranded movement: sharing real stories from real women. For the first guest in this series, we welcome Liana Morris to tell what she calls her “awakening story.”

Liana opens up about years of hustle, a kitchen-island breakdown during 2020, an autoimmune diagnosis, thyroid removal, and then literally losing her voice for months. She shares how therapy, yoga, mantras, values work, and creating non-negotiable space in her schedule helped her untangle her identity from job titles and roles like “corporate worker” and “do-it-all mom.”

Together, we explore how hustle culture, diet culture, and constant urgency pull women away from who they are, and how contrast, acceptance, and small daily practices can bring you back home to yourself. This episode is for any woman who feels overwhelmed, disconnected, or like she’s hiding her true self behind responsibilities and expectations.

In this episode:

  • A powerful awakening story of illness, surgery, and losing a voice—then finding a truer one
  • How yoga, meditation, mantras, and values exercises can create literal and emotional space in your life
  • Why hustle culture, diet culture, and constant urgency exhaust your nervous system and identity
  • The role of contrast, acceptance, and “this too shall pass” in moving through hard seasons
  • Encouragement for women who feel lost, stuck, or like they don’t know who they are anymore

In this episode of Wellness: Rebranded, we explore one of the most memorable emotional intelligence analogies you’ll ever hear: “Emotions are like farts.”

It’s funny, unexpected, and shockingly accurate and it opens the door to a deeper conversation about what emotions really are, why they matter, and how to build a healthier relationship with them.

Join us as we break down why emotions aren’t “good” or “bad,” why suppressing them always backfires, and how understanding your emotional patterns becomes your internal GPS for living a more aligned, grounded life.

In this episode:

  • Why emotions are natural, unavoidable, and meant to be felt
  • The real meaning of emotional intelligence (and why it matters for mental health)
  • How fear shows up in everyday decision-making
  • How to identify emotions beyond the basic five
  • Why naming emotions increases self-awareness and reduces stress
  • How childhood, modeling, and family dynamics shape emotional expression
  • Why your reaction — not the emotion itself — determines the outcome
  • Simple tools to start recognizing your emotions, including the feelings wheel and journaling

Today we welcome Ellen Lunay, the founder of Here: A Pop-Up Shop in Annapolis, whose life took a dramatic turn when a routine mammogram in August 2022 revealed breast cancer. At 51, at the same moment she'd just dropped her oldest daughter off at college and was prepping for her fall pop-up shop, Ellen found herself walking through surgery, radiation, business care and motherhood all at once.

In this episode, El opens up about what carried her through: the power of community over competition, learning how to ask for help, embracing grace and boundaries, and why sharing your story matters. If you’re navigating a health challenge, a business hurdle, or wondering how to build meaningful connections in your life, you’ll want to hear this.

In this episode:

  • How Ellen discovered the diagnosis and how she responded immediately.
  • Why the community she built through her business became one of her greatest supports.
  • The difference between being the giver and being willing to receive help.
  • How naming your story actually helps calm your nervous system and guide decisions.
  • Why rest, grace and boundaries are essential — especially when you’re used to “hustle.”
  • What’s changed for Ellen for the better since her diagnosis — how she now shows up differently in business, in motherhood, in life.
  • Words of encouragement for anyone facing big change or a health scare: how to breathe, how to advocate, how to accept help.

Halloween is here and so are the overflowing candy buckets, sugar highs, and parental questions about how much is too much. In this episode, Tara, Elizabeth, and Maria have a real, honest conversation about what it looks like to help kids enjoy Halloween candy without guilt, fear, or restriction.

You’ll hear personal stories from childhood Halloween memories, the “Switch Witch” phase, and how each host has evolved in their approach as parents. Together, they break down how to raise intuitive eaters who can enjoy the fun of Halloween and learn how to listen to their bodies.

In this episode:

  • Why restricting candy often leads to binging later
  • How to give kids freedom around sweets without losing structure
  • What “intuitive eating for families” actually looks like in practice
  • The power of letting kids experience their body’s feedback (“my tummy hurts”)
  • How to talk about candy without making it “good” or “bad”
  • Setting up mealtimes that help everyone feel nourished before the candy rush
  • Modeling self-compassion and balance—for your kids and yourself

​​If you’ve ever wondered, “Is my teen just moody—or is something deeper going on?” this one’s for you.

In this candid conversation, we sit down with Dr. Melissa Wellner, double board–certified adult, child & adolescent psychiatrist and founder of Annapolis Psychiatry, to break down what’s typical vs. concerning, how to start supportive (non-scary) conversations, when to loop in a pro, and why caring for your mental health is part of caring for your kids.

In this episode:

  • The gut-check for moms: when to trust your instincts and call the pediatrician
  • School says they’re fine…but your gut says otherwise (what to do next)
  • Masking: why high achievers can still be struggling
  • Age-by-age trends: anxiety in younger kids, depression in tweens/teens, and how conditions overlap (ADHD + anxiety)
  • Therapy vs. medication: what’s first-line, what’s optional, and how to think about timing
  • Scripts to start the talk without stigma (and without embarrassing your teen)
  • The mom side: guilt, mental load, and setting boundaries without shame

If “balance your hormones” feels like a wellness buzzword, this conversation will be a breath of fresh air. Tara and Elizabeth sit down with Gregory Dodell, MD—board-certified endocrinologist, owner of Central Park Endocrinology, and the brain behind Everything Endocrine on Instagram—to unpack hormones without diet culture.

Dr. Dodell shares his evolution to weight-neutral, stigma-free care, explains what hormones actually are, and gives clear, practical guidance for PCOS, thyroid health, cortisol, and when GLP-1 medications make sense.

We also cover the lab tests worth asking for, why strength training matters, GLP-1s, and how to navigate the “just lose weight” directive so many patients still hear. Consider this your evidence-informed, compassion-first hormone primer.

In this episode:

  • Dr. Dodell’s shift from weight-centric training to weight-inclusive care
  • Hormones 101: pituitary → thyroid feedback loops, cortisol basics
  • PCOS made simple: insulin resistance as the foundation
  • “Balance your hormones” claims—what helps and what’s hype
  • Lab panels to discuss with your provider (and how often)
  • GLP-1 meds: when they help, red flags, and the importance of monitoring + muscle
  • How to respond when a provider says “just lose weight”

When you think about health, you probably picture food and exercise. But the truth is, health is shaped far more by social determinants of health—the conditions in which we live, learn, work, and connect.

In this episode we break down what social determinants of health really are, why they matter, and how they can shape your wellbeing just as much (or more) than diet and exercise. By understanding the social determinants of health, you can drop the shame, find more compassion, and focus on the areas of wellness that truly support your life.

You’ll learn:

  • What social determinants of health mean and why they’re often overlooked in wellness culture
  • The surprising impact of your zip code and neighborhood on life expectancy
  • How education and income level are tied to long-term health outcomes
  • The role of community and social support in reducing risk of early death
  • Why chronic stress and financial wellbeing can affect every organ system
  • How sleep, creativity, volunteering, and career satisfaction improve wellbeing beyond the gym or kitchen
  • What NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis) means and why everyday movement matters

If you’ve ever felt pressured to “eat perfectly” or “work out more” to be healthy, this episode will help you zoom out. You’ll see how whole-person wellbeing is shaped by environment, relationships, and access—not just personal choices.

What if your doctor could “prescribe” a nature walk, a museum visit, or coffee with a friend—and it actually improved your health? In this episode, we explore social prescribing, a growing global movement that connects people to non-clinical supports proven to enhance physical, mental, and social well-being.

Rebecca (Becky) Hass, certified life coach, Programming & Outreach Manager for Anne Arundel County Public Library, and author of 101 Seeds for Library Joy, shares how she combines positive psychology with community engagement through her consulting company, Joy Work, LLC.

In this episode:

  • What social prescribing is—and why it started in the UK
  • How “link workers” and community navigators connect people to art, movement, nature, volunteering, and more
  • The loneliness epidemic and why social health belongs beside physical and mental health
  • Real stories from libraries, gyms, and neighborhoods proving that connection heals
  • Barriers (transportation, awareness, “sick-care” systems) and what pilots in the US are testing
  • How to self-prescribe joy and belonging—without waiting for a doctor’s note

Ever catch yourself spiraling from “I ate a bagel” to “welp, day’s ruined”? Today Maria and Elizabeth unpack the sneaky thought patterns that mess with our wellness and show you how to call them out, reframe them, and move on with a lot more self-compassion.

In this episode, we are diving into why thoughts aren’t facts and how the thoughts–feelings–actions triangle drives our choices. Using real-life examples, from the intuitive eating “what-the-hell” effect to the classic “I said one wrong word; I’m a failure”, we break down common cognitive distortions and teach practical ways to reality-check and rewire them.

In this episode:

  • Why thoughts aren’t facts—and why it matters for your wellness journey
  • The “what-the-hell” effect in intuitive eating and how it relates to black-and-white thinking
  • How catastrophizing turns one mistake into a worst-case scenario
  • The tendency to discount positives and why accepting compliments feels hard
  • Labeling ourselves or others and how it limits growth
  • Practical strategies to reality-test your thoughts and build more flexible thinking

Friendships are one of the most important pieces of our health and wellness puzzle, but in midlife, they can look very different than they did in our 20s or 30s. Some friendships fade, some deepen, and some need a little “redesigning” to stay healthy and supportive.

In this episode, we get real about the ups and downs of friendships in our 40s, 50s, and beyond. From the pain of being ghosted by a lifelong friend to the relief of no longer putting up with draining relationships, we explore how midlife changes our approach to connection, boundaries, and community.

We share personal stories—both heartbreaks and joys—and talk about why friendships are not just emotional, but also physical health lifelines. You’ll hear about redesigning relationships, the role of boundaries, and why even one or two solid friendships can be more powerful than a dozen “okay-ish” ones.

In this episode:

  • Why some friendships naturally fade (and why it’s not always about you)
  • How to “redesign” a friendship before letting it go
  • The role of confidence, clarity, and boundaries in midlife relationships
  • Why loneliness—physical or emotional—can harm health more than you realize
  • How strong friendships can become an essential part of your wellness journey

We all know what we “should” do: move our bodies more, eat in ways that support us, stick to the habits that make us feel better. But actually doing those things consistently? That’s where resistance shows up.

In this episode we unpack resistance, such as the excuses, fears, and old belief patterns that can keep us stuck even when we know what we want. From the intimidation of walking into a gym to the frustration of not seeing results fast enough in therapy, resistance shows up in sneaky ways across health, wellness, and life.

We share personal stories, client experiences, and even a trainer’s unlikely journey that started with just sitting in her car outside the gym. You’ll hear why resistance isn’t a failure, how small “bare minimum” steps can build momentum, and why self-compassion is essential for lasting change.

In this episode:

  • How childhood experiences and shame can shape resistance as adults
  • The role of all-or-nothing thinking and learned helplessness
  • Why resistance often masks itself as “I don’t have time” or “I’ll start later”
  • The power of micro-steps, short-term goals, and finding your “why”
  • Why self-compassion—not guilt or blame—is the real motivator for change

The new Fit for TV documentary on The Biggest Loser has us fired up. This reality show wasn’t just “entertainment,” it reshaped diet culture, fitness, and the way we think about bodies in ways that were harmful, abusive, and dehumanizing.

In this episode, we’re breaking down why the show was so damaging and what it means for how we approach health today. This documentary was a stark reminder that your body isn’t a spectacle, you don’t owe anyone a before-and-after picture, and health should never come at the cost of your dignity.

In this episode:

  • How The Biggest Loser normalized extreme and unsafe weight loss practices.
  • The ripple effects it created in gyms, workplaces, and wellness programs across the country.
  • Why diet culture about profit, not health.
  • Weighing benefits vs costs of weight loss programs.
  • Red flags to look out for in trainers, programs, and “health” challenges.
  • What compassionate, sustainable, and whole-person wellness actually looks like.

What if your workout had nothing to do with the number on the scale—and everything to do with what your body can do?

This week we’re joined by Mark Breedon, an online personal trainer who helps women build lasting confidence by getting stronger than they ever imagined. His weight-neutral philosophy shifts the focus away from aesthetics and toward strength, health, and independence because life-changing results aren’t just about how you look, they’re about what you can do.

Mark shares how he went from chasing bigger biceps to falling in love with powerlifting, and how that transformation led him to create a coaching approach free from weigh-ins, before-and-after photos, and body measurements.

In this episode:

  • How training for strength can be more fulfilling and sustainable than training for weight loss
  • Real-life examples of clients discovering their strength (yes, even in their 70s and 80s!)
  • Why women often thrive in a strength-based program
  • The biggest mistakes the fitness industry makes about motivation and “discipline”
  • How to set non-aesthetic goals that keep you excited to train

AI tools like ChatGPT are everywhere. People are using them for everything from writing workouts and meal plans to getting therapy or relationship advice. But can AI truly replace the role of a trained professional? In this conversation, we explore the pros and cons of using AI for deeply personal, health-related, and emotional needs.

We talk about where AI can be a useful tool, and where it falls short. From privacy concerns and accuracy issues to the irreplaceable value of human connection, empathy, and individualized care, this episode unpacks why your lived experience can’t be reduced to an algorithm.

In this episode:

  • The surprising ways people are using AI for emotional and health support
  • Why therapy is more than just techniques and advice. It’s about relationship
  • The problem with AI “hallucinations” and made-up facts
  • Privacy concerns when sharing personal information with AI tools

Body Positivity, Weight Neutrality, and Health at Every Size… these terms get thrown around a lot, but what do they actually mean?

This episode breaks down the often misunderstood concepts. With nuance, personal perspective, and plenty of real-world examples, we unpack the key differences between these movements, and how they show up in both fitness and healthcare settings.

Whether you're new to these terms or have been navigating them for a while, this conversation will help you better understand what they really stand for and how to use them to support your health journey without shame or confusion.

In this episode:

  • The origins and evolution of body positivity (and why some have moved toward body neutrality)
  • What weight neutrality means for fitness, health goals, and working with a trainer
  • How HAES is often misunderstood—and what it’s really advocating for
  • Why none of these frameworks are anti-weight loss (even if they don’t center it)
  • How healthcare providers and systems often misapply these concepts—or ignore them entirely
  • The importance of reducing weight stigma and honoring body diversity

What if your workout did more than build muscle—what if it actually rewired your brain?

Brad Evans, the creator of Jukestir, joins the podcast to talk all about this unique punching bag that’s changing the way we think about fitness. Originally designed as a fun martial arts tool, Jukestir has evolved into a powerful nervous system training device that’s now used in neurological rehab labs, Rock Steady Boxing programs, and with everyday people of all ages and abilities.

Brad shares the story of how a garage experiment turned into a paradigm-shifting fitness tool that promotes resilience, coordination, and mindfulness, all through unpredictable movement and, yes, fun. Whether you're an MMA fighter, a 70-year-old building balance, or someone who just wants workouts to be less boring, this episode is for you.

In this episode:

  • Why most fitness approaches are “outside-in” and how Jukestir flips the script
  • The surprising mental and emotional benefits of missing your target
  • How training the nervous system improves speed, reaction time, and stress tolerance
  • Using Jukestir for fall prevention, Parkinson’s support, and mindfulness
  • The power of play, unpredictability, and movement for all ages

We’re in an era where GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy are everywhere. On TV, in social media feeds, at the doctor’s office, and in everyday conversations. And while these medications may be helpful or even life-changing for some, they’re also bringing up a lot of complicated feelings for many others, especially those who are choosing not to take them, or are trying to navigate their use in a weight-centric world.

This episode holds space for those feelings. We’re not here to judge anyone’s decisions. Whether you’re on a GLP-1, thinking about it, or actively avoiding it, this conversation is for you. Because no matter what, you're making decisions in a culture steeped in weight stigma, misinformation, and unrealistic expectations.

In this episode:

  • Why seeing GLP-1 use everywhere can be triggering—even if you support body neutrality
  • The influence of diet culture, media, and peer pressure on health decisions
  • Personal reflections on navigating this era in a larger body
  • Questions to ask yourself before making health-related decisions
  • How self-compassion and boundary-setting can protect your mental health
  • Reframing weight loss narratives: why thin doesn’t always mean healthy
  • A reminder that you don’t know anyone’s full story

We get it. You're trying to fit everything into your mornings: a workout, meditation, a full breakfast, maybe even the Today Show. But who has time for all of that before the workday starts? In this episode, we’re breaking down the concept of exercise snacking—short bursts of movement you can sprinkle into your day to support your physical and mental health without needing a full gym session.

From four-minute Tabata sets to dance parties while making breakfast, we explore creative ways to rethink what counts as “exercise” (spoiler: a lot more than you think). Plus, we share the companion ideas of nutrition nudges and mindful minis—because small steps do add up.

In this episode:

  • What exercise snacking actually is (and why the name needs a rebrand)
  • How short workouts can offer major benefits
  • Real-life examples of “snacks” that count—from stair sprints to pool piggybacks
  • Why mindful moments and small nutrition upgrades make a difference too
  • How to habit stack these into your day without adding more to your to-do list

What do Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, and the “10,000 steps a day” rule have in common? They’re all a little mysterious… and maybe a bit made up.

In this solo episode, personal trainer Tara breaks down the truth behind the 10K steps myth and shares what the research actually says about how many steps you need for better health. Spoiler: it’s not as much as you’ve been told.

In this episode:

  • Why the 10,000-step target isn’t rooted in science
  • What studies show about how fewer steps still create massive health benefits
  • The real number of daily steps that make a difference
  • Easy, creative ways to sneak in more movement (without hitting the gym)
  • Why any movement is better than none—and how to make it count

Whether you’re a weekend walker, a desk dweller, or a step-count queen, this episode will leave you feeling encouraged, informed, and totally seen.

“You should listen to your body” — but what does that actually mean?

In this episode, we’re breaking down one of the most common (and confusing) pieces of advice in the intuitive eating space: how to actually understand how food makes you feel. If you’ve ever thought, “I want to listen to my body… but I have no idea what I’m listening for,” this one’s for you.

We walk through the real-life barriers that block us from tuning in — like busyness, distraction, diet rules, and self-worth — and then guide you through simple ways to reconnect with your internal cues. From digestive reactions to emotional responses, energy levels to satisfaction, we cover the full spectrum of physical and mental signals your body gives you after eating.

In this episode:

  • How to check in with simple prompts like “pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral?”
  • What to notice beyond fullness: energy, mood, digestion, and more
  • How to move from food rules to body trust
  • Real-life examples (including some funny ones!) of how tuning in changes everything

Whether you're just starting your intuitive eating journey or want to deepen your connection to your body, this episode will give you practical tools and new perspectives to explore.

If your body couldn’t change no matter what—how would you show up for yourself?

This follow-up episode dives deeper into one powerful question that left Maria reeling (in the best way). What if your body stayed exactly as it is—forever? Would you still hit the gym? Would you live off chocolate cake? Would you finally wear the bikini?

We talk honestly about body acceptance, the difference between looking good vs. feeling good, and how our motivations shape our behaviors. Spoiler: even the experts have off days, skipped workouts, and regret eating 700 M&Ms. You’re in good company.

In this episode:

  • What it really means to feel good in your body
  • Why chasing physical changes isn’t the only path to wellness
  • The truth about intuitive eating (no, it’s not just eating cake all day)
  • The evolving, messy, beautiful relationship we all have with food and fitness
  • Permission to be imperfect—and show up anyway

"I just want to feel good in my body this summer." Sound familiar? You’re not alone.

What does that really mean? And more importantly, does it always have to involve changing the way you look? In this episode, we explore this through personal stories, struggles, and redefinitions of what it truly means to feel good in your body. We peel back the layers of societal expectations, internalized body shame, and toxic summer body narratives.

Whether you're dealing with physical discomfort, emotional burnout, or that persistent inner critic telling you you "need to lose 15 pounds," this episode will help you reframe what feeling good actually looks like — on your own terms.

In this episode:

  • What it really means to "feel good in your body"
  • Why body confidence doesn’t require body change
  • How diet culture and discomfort are tied together
  • The power of calling out judgment in others (and ourselves)
  • Replacing negative self-talk with facts and self-compassion
  • Movement and nourishment as tools for feeling better
  • The game-changing question: What would you do if changing your body wasn’t an option?

If your life were a recipe, these three ingredients would be non-negotiable.

In this episode, Maria, a mental health therapist, shares the three foundational elements that every woman needs to thrive — self-worth, self-esteem, and self-love — and explains how a lack of these essential ingredients shows up in our daily lives through burnout, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and overgiving.

Together, we explore what each of these concepts really means, how to recognize where you might be running low, and how to start rebuilding your internal foundation, not for others, but for you.

In this episode:

  • The difference between self-worth, self-esteem, and self-love — and why all three matter
  • How low self-esteem shows up subtly (and not-so-subtly) in your career, relationships, and health
  • Real-life stories that reveal what happens when you don’t know your worth
  • Why women often resist rest, joy, and slowing down (and how to change that)
  • How to audit your relationships and protect your energy
  • The game-changing mindset of treating yourself like someone you're dating

We're joined by Maureen Benkovich aka the “Sober Fit Chick”, alcohol freedom coach, speaker, author, and former personal trainer, to talk about what it means to explore alcohol use, especially as women navigating trauma, motherhood, wellness, and identity.

Maureen shares her deeply personal journey with binge drinking, infertility, and how she found her way to freedom — and now helps others do the same.

TW: this conversation includes talk of infertility and pregnancy loss.

In this episode:

  • The gray area of alcohol use and why it's more common than you think
  • How alcohol is often used to numb emotions, anxiety, and social discomfort
  • Why removing alcohol can feel like losing part of your identity
  • The shame, stigma, and social pressure that surround not drinking
  • How curiosity — not judgment — can be the first step to change
  • Practical tools to start evaluating your relationship with alcohol
  • What “sitting in the suck” means and how to stay with your emotions

We hear the word mindfulness all the time, but what does it actually mean… and more importantly, how do we practice it in real life?

In this episode, Maria, Tara and Elizabeth have a refreshingly real conversation on what mindfulness looks like outside of a yoga studio. From zoning out while driving to doom scrolling (or as Maria calls it — dumbscrolling), we explore how modern life disconnects us from the present moment — and how small shifts can bring us back to ourselves.

In this episode:

  • Why mindfulness isn’t just for people who meditate
  • The difference between mindfulness and meditation
  • Everyday moments where you’re probably already practicing mindfulness (and don’t even know it)
  • The physical and emotional health benefits of mindfulness — backed by science
  • Personal stories of how we each stay present

Burnout doesn’t just happen in therapy rooms or hospitals—it happens in boardrooms, loan offices, and anywhere women are expected to give endlessly without pause. In this episode, we’re joined by Tanner Greenwalt, a seasoned mortgage professional who is changing the way her industry views mental health and success.

Tanner shares her personal journey through burnout, what recovery looked like, and how she learned to set boundaries in a profession that rarely encourages it. We also discuss what burnout really feels like (hint: it’s not just being tired), why slowing down is essential—not selfish—and how mental health should be the foundation of any meaningful definition of success.

We talk about:

  • What burnout really looks and feels like in high-pressure jobs
  • The hidden emotional toll of careers in finance and service industries
  • Tools for completing the stress cycle during your workday
  • The lie that burnout is "just part of the job"
  • Redefining success around mental health, joy, and sustainability
  • Advice we’d give to our younger selves about boundaries and wellbeing
  • Why wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity

Protein is having a moment—but how much do you actually need?

In this episode, we’re digging into the hype, the research, and the real-life application of protein intake for women in all stages of life, including perimenopause and menopause. With so much noise around macros and protein powders, it can be hard to know what’s real and what’s just diet culture in disguise.

Elizabeth breaks down the science (with receipts), Tara shares what’s trending in the fitness world, and Maria asks all the questions we know you’re wondering too.

In this episode:

  • Why nutrition is more nuanced than social media makes it seem
  • How much protein you might need—and what the research actually says
  • What you need to know about the RDA
  • Red flags when you’re eating too much protein
  • Easy sources of protein beyond chicken and fish
  • When and why to use protein powder or bars
  • Why your overall eating pattern matters more than a single meal

Why is it so hard for us to love our bodies?

In this episode, we explore the pervasive body negativity women are taught from an early age—and what it takes to shift that narrative. Inspired by a moving presentation from Tara, we dive deep into how we speak about, think about, and experience our bodies. Instead of focusing on what our bodies look like, we celebrate what they do.

We share personal reflections, powerful mindset shifts, and a call to action to rewrite the script—not only for ourselves but for the next generation. It’s time to write our bodies love letters! XOXO

In this episode:

  • A quote from Kate Winslet that sets the tone for the conversation
  • How cultural messaging trains us to bond over hating our bodies
  • Reframing body appreciation to focus on function over form
  • The difference between what others see and what we feel about our bodies
  • Encouragement to speak kindly about your body in front of your children

  • How our brains have adapted (or struggled) in the digital age
  • Social media, attention spans, and the science behind digital dependence

Think menopause is all about suffering in silence? Think again! We’re bringing back the Menopause Man himself, Ren Jones. Ren Jones was on episode 64 of the podcast, and he dropped wisdom that had us rethinking everything. Ren is a certified personal trainer specializing in menopause health, fitness, and nutrition, helping women over 30 feel strong, confident, and at home in their bodies.

In this episode:

  • Why mourning your "younger self" keeps you stuck—and what to do instead
  • The real reason strength training is a non-negotiable (hint: it’s not about weight loss)
  • Why eating more might actually be the key to feeling better
  • The sneaky ways diet culture and wellness culture manipulate women—especially in midlife
  • The total nonsense of “hormone balancing”

Ren doesn’t just talk the talk—he’s on a mission to empower women to take back their health without the gimmicks. Expect a mix of science, straight talk, and serious laughs (because if you’re not laughing through midlife, what are you even doing?).

Your body is the least interesting thing about you.

This episode is all about the complex world of body shaming, self-worth, and societal expectations with a personal story that sheds light on resilience and self-acceptance. After receiving a prestigious award from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), Tara shares her experience with online criticism and how it underscored the importance of detaching self-worth from body image.

Together, we explore how body shaming can affect everyone, regardless of body size or appearance, and discuss why your inherent worth isn’t defined by others’ opinions or fleeting societal standards.

In this episode:

  • How Tara’s award sparked both support and criticism, revealing the pervasive issue of body shaming
  • The impact of shifting beauty standards and the ever-moving goalposts of body ideals
  • Why self-worth is intrinsic and unearned, rooted in simply existing
  • The importance of supportive communities and finding people who celebrate your success
  • Why representation in fitness and wellness spaces matters for inclusivity and empowerment

Tune in to this episode to embrace the movement of redefining self-worth, finding acceptance, and building a culture that celebrates all bodies.

Gray hairs with attitude, body image trolls, and the absurd pressure to look perfect—yeah, we’re going there today.

In this episode, we were having a casual, off-line conversation about beauty, aging, and societal pressures when we thought — hey, this is too good not to share! Inspired by Nelly Furtado’s candid post on body neutrality, we dive into the absurdity of beauty standards. From tweezing gray hairs to handling unsolicited advice about makeup, we explore the unrelenting pressure women face to “look the part” at every age. Spoiler alert: even people in the pictures don’t look like that!

Even though we don’t live in a society that celebrates aging, it’s not all heavy—we keep it real and funny as we tackle topics like diet culture, body criticism, and how women often unintentionally reinforce these unrealistic ideals. We also dish out three actionable ways to break the cycle and show up for each other with love, not judgment.

In this episode:

  • Nelly Furtado’s refreshing take on body neutrality
  • Maria’s war with her gray hairs (and why they seem to have superpowers)
  • How social media magnifies beauty pressure (and makes us overthink everything)
  • Tara’s take on bodybuilders who peak for just three hours and still dominate Instagram
  • The subtle ways we bash ourselves (and how to STOP IT)

This episode is full of advice on identifying areas where boundaries are needed, tips for communicating them confidently, and strategies to handle pushback. Whether you need to set limits around holiday gatherings, manage comments about food and body image, or redefine your social circles, we discuss why boundaries matter, how they can strengthen relationships, and why you deserve to set them.

Ever wonder why we’re all so obsessed with how we look, and what it’s really doing to our mental health?

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Charlotte Markey, a leading body image scientist and psychology professor at Rutgers University. With nearly three decades of research on body image and eating behaviors, Dr. Markey provides invaluable insights into how we perceive our bodies, self-acceptance, the impact of social media, and strategies for developing a healthier relationship with body image.

We explore the concept of maladaptive body image behaviors, how parents can positively influence their children’s body image, and why promoting body positivity is essential for mental health. Dr. Markey also shares her experiences in writing her Body Image Book Series and discusses the role of self-compassion and acceptance in body image healing.

In this episode:

  • Defining body image and identifying maladaptive behaviors.
  • The impact of social media on body image and mental health.
  • Why 'fat talk' between friends isn’t the bonding experience you think it is
  • Practical tips for parents to guide their children on body image.
  • Addressing the backlash against body positivity and promoting size diversity.
  • Insights from Dr. Markey’s Body Image Book Series and her latest book Adult-ish: The Body Image Book for Life(2024).

Have you ever been called a name about your physical body that you wish you weren’t being called, but decided to play it off as a joke instead of standing up for yourself?

In this episode, Tara, Maria and Elizabeth talk about the importance of identifying the true source of our problems—whether it’s a tripped breaker in the kitchen or a deeper emotional wound, such as childhood nicknames that have stuck around too long.

The episode explores topics like inner child work, emotional healing, and how our early life experiences shape our current relationships, especially with ourselves. From fitness to mental health, they discuss how understanding the "why" behind our struggles allows us to fix them at the root, rather than just treating the symptoms.

In this episode:

  • A funny story about appliances that weren't really broken—and the life lesson it taught.
  • How childhood wounds can show up in adult life, especially as "adult temper tantrums.”
  • The importance of finding the true source of emotional, mental, and physical issues.
  • Working on identifying the needs of your inner child to bring about lasting change.
  • Why we should stop commenting on appearance
  • Embracing the parts of yourself that have been criticized and turning them into sources of pride.

“Let’s stop commenting on each other’s appearance. Even if it’s a joke, it leaves a mark.”

  • Emotions and Cravings: Stress, boredom, and emotions play a huge role in what we reach for in the pantry.
  • Is there a perfect diet? Spoiler alert: NO!

Have you ever been told by a doctor that ‘just losing weight’ will solve your problems? You are not alone.

In this episode, Elizabeth shares a personal experience she recently had at the doctor's office. In December, she celebrated her 50th birthday and, as part of her routine health check-up, underwent some tests. The results revealed that she had high cholesterol. Seeking to understand more about her condition, Elizabeth asked the doctor for clarification. The doctor's recommendation was straightforward but surprising: lose 5 to 10 pounds.

This encounter sparks a broader discussion about weight stigma in health care and how it affects patient treatment and perception. Elizabeth, a registered dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, dives into the implications of such advice and the potential biases it reflects. Tune in to hear more about the actions Elizabeth decided to take based on this interaction, her insights on navigating health care as an advocate for intuitive eating, and her reflections on how weight-centric advice can impact overall well-being.

Did you know that BMI is a deeply flawed measure of health?

In this episode, Tara, Elizabeth and Maria break down what BMI (the Body Mass Index) gets wrong — how it harms and what you can pay attention to instead.

The history behind BMI is very interesting. The Body Mass Index was created by Adolphe Quetelet, a Belgian astronomer, mathematician, statistician, and sociologist. He devised the basis of the BMI between 1830 and 1850 as he developed what he called "social physics".

BMI does not tell us anything about health - and in fact, BMI can be very bad for mental health and create a lot of weight stigmas and shame.

Topics discussed in this episode:

  • The history of BMI.
  • Why you should ditch tracking your BMI.
  • Examples of how BMI can be harmful.
  • What you can pay attention to rather than BMI.

“Weight and health are not the same thing, and BMI is not really that useful.”

Throughout this episode, the hosts, including a personal trainer, therapist, and dietitian, provide valuable insights into handling and navigating body shaming, even in an era that promotes body positivity.

If you've experienced body shaming or any form of bullying, this episode offers practical tools and advice to help you overcome negativity and emerge stronger.

All the way from scenic New Zealand, fitness and mobility coach Jana Barrett shares some wonderful insights and important information, especially for women over 50.

Among other topics, some of the things they discuss are:

  • The difference between a “normal” workout and a mobility-focused workout
  • The importance of using a progressive, managed movement program

  • How long do we really need each day to maintain optimal health
  • The “bottom line” of what makes movement meaningful, and how you can prioritize it!

Are you recovering from an injury and eager to get back to doing what you love? You CAN regain your confidence and safely resume the activities you love after an injury - but there are some concepts to consider. Healing requires thoughtful and intentional planning and care as your body heals.

Tara shares from her experience and training some things to consider if you’re on the mend from an exercise-related injury - and Elizabeth talks about living through this in real life and in real time!

Some useful general principles that Tara discusses in this conversation:

  • To stretch or not to stretch? You can’t hurt it by NOT stretching it, but you could do damage if it’s something that’s overstretched.
  • Try not to get discouraged!
  • Cold prevents swelling, and swelling inhibits healing. | Warm will always feel better, but it may not bring healing. Strain your back? Go ahead and try to relax everything with a warm, Epsom salt bath.

Then she gives us five important tips to help you heal from exercise-related injuries: (These are just a few thoughts, listen to the episode for more info…)

  1. Give it a few days. But also talk to your doctor and get them involved so they can assess and give you a game plan.
  2. Take it easy and don’t rush back into exercise. A general guideline is that your recovery time should be twice as long as the time your injury kept you out of commission. (So if you’re out of commission for 5 days, ease back into your exercise program over the next 10 days once you get started again.)
  3. When you do come back to exercise, start with small goals.
  4. Don’t ignore your pain. Listen to your body! The guideline for this is if you feel a slow-onset burning pain, it’s probably ok. If you get acute-onset stabbing pain, DON’T continue with whatever you’re doing.
  5. Get back to what you love once you’re ready! Getting hurt doesn’t mean that you should quit altogether.

Be creative! Just because you’ve injured one area of your body doesn’t mean you can’t work the rest of it. Research has shown that working on the able side of your body with actually strengthen the injured side!

September is National Suicide Prevention Month. Today’s episode is our contribution to raising awareness and opening the conversation on one of the most pressing concerns in our society today: Suicide.

Mis-information and stigma are both reasons why suicide is still very much a conversation kept behind closed doors. It is OK to talk about suicide and it is an effective way to prevent it. Maria’s conversation with Lauren Jenkins, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, includes both anecdotal examples and research regarding mental health resources, warning signs of suicide, and how we can support others who are experiencing suicidal thoughts. These two licensed mental health professionals stress the importance of breaking the taboo around the topic of suicide, and the positive impact when holding space for others.

If you have children, being aware of your youth’s mental health struggles is important, too, considering the rise of teenage suicide rates today.

Your life matters and it is worth living! In this episode, you’ll be encouraged to start asking others about suicide and reach out for help if you are struggling. You are not alone!

Highlights of their discussion include:

  • Does discussing suicide increase the risk for it to happen?
  • Recognizing warning signs about suicide
  • Productive ways to open the conversation with others
  • Some ways to respond if someone shares about suicidal thoughts
  • Words of wisdom and comfort to those who have lost a loved-one to suicide…

Most people don’t want to die, they want to stop living with the pain…so opening the conversation gives them the hope that you are a lifeline!

  • Maria Winters

Awareness is the first step to sustainable health and liberation.

Welcome back as we wrap up this discussion with therapist Maria Winters, who shares some important concepts to help you move forward in your emotional health journey. The healing trio digs deep into what is (and isn’t) lazy, the labels we give to ourselves or are placed on us, how we can (and can’t) influence others or navigate change, and so.much.MORE!

(If you haven’t listened to the first part of our discussion from last week, please go ahead and do that first and then join us back here!)

These concepts not only deal with mental health but can be connected to our physical well-being. Additionally, they can empower your interpersonal relationships. You’ll find that incorporating them into your wellness journey will spill over into so many areas of your life!

Embrace these five additional important points to improve your mental well-being:

  1. Your life is happening right now - stay focused and present in the moment!
  2. Not being productive is NOT the same as being lazy. Our bodies need rest…
  3. If you’re alive, it’s not never too late to (fill in the blank) .
  4. Your mental health diagnosis - or any kind of “diagnosis - does not define you. You are so much more than any label that has been given to you.
  5. The only person you can change is yourself.

Happiness is a practice. It’s something that’s not going to be stable or at the same level all the time… Find those activities that bring joy and then add them to your life.

Define happiness for yourself!

Good mental health is foundational to how we move forward - or don’t move forward - in every other area of our lives. In this first episode of a two-part mini-series, Maria Winters gives us 5 “value bombs” that can help ensure we exercise real self-care and enhance our emotional well-being. The bullet points themselves are important because they are practical concepts and tips. However, even more importantly, during the discussion, Maria gives examples and explains why they are so important to us all, and how some of them have gotten misunderstood or even warped in our minds over time.

(If you have children - or know someone who does - forward this episode to them! You and the will discover some important tips for helping children grow in their future mental health, too.)

And come back again next week as the healing trio wraps up this important discussion.

Embrace these five important points for optimum mental health:

  1. Carefully choose what arguments are worth your energy.
  2. Other people’s needs are important - but so are yours!
  3. Once you’ve moved forward from a negative situation or mindset - leave it in the past.
  4. Put boundaries in place: you are not obligated to have a relationship with toxic family members.
  5. You were born worthy.

(Whether it’s family, friends, or your job…) those who most disrespect your boundaries

are the ones who benefit the most from you not having any!

It’s all around us - impossible to get around, isn’t it?

Could that be why it’s so hard to stop focusing on weight loss?

Tara and Elizabeth talk about the challenges we all face as we move away from the toxic diet culture and towards a healthier relationship with food and our bodies, and they share some tips to help you reframe your mindset.

Here are some questions to ask yourself as you’re considering moving away from looking at health solely in terms of weight loss: (These are just a few, Elizabeth shares more in the episode!)

  • What has my experience been focusing on weight loss?
  • Has it gotten me the lasting results that I’ve been looking for?
  • How has dieting impacted my mental and emotional well-being?
  • Am I experiencing a lot of stress, guilt, anxiety, and overwhelm over food and my body?
  • What impact has diet culture had in my life; how much time, money, and energy have I spent pursuing unhealthy ideals?

“You don’t have to be a dieter to be impacted by diet culture…”

  • Elizabeth Harris

Some takeaways:

  • Think about the intentions behind the decisions you make toward food and your health
  • Consider the effect that diet culture may be causing in your life; how much time, money, and energy have I spent pursuing unhealthy ideals
  • How changes in behavior can impact your health - irrespective of weight loss!
  • Proactive, positive ways to respond to unnecessary and potentially harmful comments people make.
  • The fears that may be holding us back from crossing the chasm to intuitive eating - and encouragement that it’s worth the leap!

In this episode of the Wellness Rebranded podcast, we dive into the world of menopause and how fitness routines can help women thrive during this challenging phase of life. Join us as we uncover the secrets to maintaining strength, confidence, and mental well-being. But beware, just when you think you have all the answers, a surprising twist to everything you heard in this episode is “challenged.”. You’ll have to tune in to discover the twist...

Weight training is as close to a magic pill as you’re going to get during menopause. It improves energy levels, builds strength, and boosts confidence in your body’s abilities.

  • Tara DeLeon

The Benefits of Weight Training Weight training is beneficial for physical fitness at any stage of life, but it gains higher significance during menopause. Research has shown that strength training improves energy levels, builds physical strength, boosts self-confidence, and has a positive impact on mental health. This is beneficial during menopause as it helps women regain self-confidence in their bodies and abilities, especially when they could be dealing with body-image issues or grieving over physical changes. During the discussion, Tara explains how weight training can profoundly impact women during menopause. Not only does it enhance energy levels, but it also fosters confidence and boosts mood. From Tara's professional experience, weight training stands out as the apt tool for managing menopausal symptoms, being vital for regaining physical prowess and boosting mental strength. For her, it is especially significant for women who are grappling with self-esteem or body image issues, offering a comprehensive solution for holistic and improved wellness.

Does it sound familiar? Constantly obsessing over food and your body, trying every diet and exercise trend, but never feeling satisfied or happy in your own skin? Have you been told to just stick to the plan or push harder in order to see the results you want? But instead, you're left feeling frustrated, exhausted, and defeated. It's time to break free from the cycle of diet culture and shift your mindset towards intuitive eating and self-compassion. In this conversation with Melissa Szurovy, who has been working with Elizabeth for a few years, Melissa shares part of her journey with the complexities of weight metrics, individualizing exercise programs for joy and satisfaction, and developing the trust and patience needed to transform your relationship with food and your body.

Do you struggle to understand or respect your fullness cues? This is often one of the last pieces of the puzzle to fit into place on the Intuitive Eating journey. We’re making it easier by explaining how to use the hunger fullness scale, giving examples, recognizing barriers to feeling your fullness, and sharing how to more effectively connect with your fullness and other eating cues.

We also talk about our own discoveries related to learning from and listening to our bodies when dealing with hunger, eating, and nutrition.

Satisfaction is such an important and undervalued component of feeling full

and actually landing on a way of eating that feels good for you.

  • Elizabeth Harris

Note: This is Part 2 of the Tuning Into Intuition series we started a short while ago. If you haven’t already, listen to Part 1, Tuning Into Your Hunger Cues (episode 29), to get started on this topic.

Your takeaways from the show:

    • Grasp the concepts behind the Intuitive Eating Hunger-Fullness Scale and get examples of how to use it
    • Identify factors that block you from recognizing and honoring your fullness cues.
    • Recognize the significance of prioritizing nourishment for maintaining optimal health.
    • Distinguish between the sensations of feeling full and feeling satisfied.
    • Examine how diet culture shapes our understanding of fullness and satisfaction.
  • What was YOUR takeaway? Share it on socials and don’t forget to tag us so we can share it too!

Are you having a hard time enjoying your exercise routine because you feel pressured to do and achieve more?

Moving your body is supposed to be a gentle and kind process to enrich the quality of your life. But sometimes we forget why we actually want to move because of diet culture and the pressure to achieve the “ideal body type”.

Welcome to episode 17 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast. Today, we’re talking about improving your relationship with movement and embracing a more joyful approach.

We are also sharing some of the red flags and warning signs that may show up if you’re experiencing an unhealthy relationship with movement.

It’s empowering to move our body and get stronger, but it’s also important to have the right mindset and goals when it comes to fully enjoying the benefits of exercise.

Let’s rebrand wellness together!

“Have you lost weight?” may not be the weight loss compliment you think it is.

While it may seem like an innocent gesture to make someone feel good, here’s the thing:

Diet culture has conditioned us to believe that losing weight is the best way to be accepted and valued in society.

Welcome to episode 16 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode, we want to talk about rethinking weight loss compliments. It’s true, we love receiving compliments every now and then but what happens when this compliment reinforces something hurtful?

We’ll share our own insights and opinions on the topic and our experiences about receiving compliments that may not necessarily improve our way of thinking.

It’s important to reflect on the message that you’re sending when you’re complimenting someone’s weight or body in general. So, if you’re ready to learn about the effects of weight loss compliments then join us for another insightful episode!

Cheers to rebranding wellness together!

Goals can be really helpful, but society sends us the message that in order to be happy you NEED to achieve a goal.

But, in reality- this is a great example of hustle culture!

Life is about way more than a never ending battle to DO more.

But how can you reframe your thoughts about goal setting, and create a more positive relationship with them?

Welcome to episode 14 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode, we’re discussing goals- how they can sometimes get in the way, and what to do instead!

We are ALL about reflecting on the things that are important to us WHILE being more present and less busy.

So, let’s connect with what we truly value, and dive into a different perspective on goals that focuses more on the process rather than outcomes.

Raise your hand if your nutrition plan pendulum swings from food restriction right on over to binge eating!

Now, what feelings would come up if I told you that you have unconditional permission to eat the food you like and ENJOY?

Do you wholeheartedly believe that you’d run to the supermarket and buy multiple gallons of ice cream and eat till you felt sick?

Or, do you fear what others would think or say if you just freely ate what you desired?

There’s a better way to enjoy food and get healthy that doesn’t involve you tormenting yourself and have your thoughts be consumed by food.

Welcome to episode 12 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode we are discussing how to gain food freedom by using intuitive eating principles.

Permission takes the power away from the food and puts it back in your hands!

We invite you to move away from scarcity mindset and break up with dieting for good!

There are so many diet culture messages around us about what to eat and how to look.

And we're often told that it's all about the numbers: calories, macros, more protein, no carbs, yes carbs, fat, fat-free… and the list goes on.

The truth is that dieting simply doesn't work, and it can even be harmful for your health and well-being.

In today’s episode, we’re continuing our intuitive eating series and talking about the first 5 intuitive eating principles.

Overall, intuitive eating is about improving your relationship with food and your body, learning to listen to your body's cues and needs, rather than relying on outside sources like diet culture or restrictive diets.

But, before we can fully practice intuitive eating and heal from the damage caused by the dieting mentality, we need to first understand the principles of having a healthy relationship with food and your body.

How much time and energy have you spent dieting? Or feeling guilty or frustrated when you’ve eaten something you think you shouldn’t?

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the world of intuitive eating and how it can help you stop dieting (or feeling as though you should be!) and improve your relationship with food.Intuitive eating is a self-care eating framework that focuses on trusting yourself and listening to your body. In short, intuitive eating principles focus on YOU instead of counting calories, macros, or unsustainable “rules”.

One of the main intuitive eating benefits is that it's NOT about perfect outcomes—it's about listening to your body wisdom and trusting yourself, rather than what a one-size-fits-all diet plan says you should eat.

Ready to stop dieting so you can feel more peaceful around food? Let’s dig in!

What do you think of when you hear the word “wellness”?

Do you immediately picture Instagram influencers, eliteness, or striving to be in PERFECT health using precise and regimented health plans?

There's this sort of underlying theme and obsession with pursuing health or having the “perfect” health everywhere you look these days.

As if it's within our control if we could just eat the top superfoods of the moment, stick to a popular calorie-counting diet plan, or exercise and meditate enough.

We have set out to change this narrative, and promote genuine health and self-care!

Welcome to episode 6 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode, we are discussing the impossible standards of the wellness industry, and the motivations behind their messaging.

Also, we chat about why we're all so passionate about presenting a different version of health and wellness that actually enhances your health.

We are encouraging you to drop the idea that there's this magic solution out there that's going to make your health better if you do everything “right”.

Remember it's more about the day-to-day, and we’re here to help guide you each step of the way!

Have you ever tried replacing negative thoughts with positive ones?

Did it work?

There’s an endless supply of posts on social media that would have you believe that the reason why negative thoughts come to mind is your fault and something to “fix”. Or, that your thoughts aren’t valid, and need to be sugar-coated.

Although well-intentioned, (and aesthetically pleasing) these types of posts are prime examples of toxic positivity.

Welcome to episode 4 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode, we’re delving into how culture often categorizes negative thoughts or emotions as problematic and something to be fought off- resulting in toxic positivity.

Also, we discuss what this does to your mental health, and what you can do to work through these emotions in a healthy way.

Remember, you are not your thoughts.

Drop the struggle with trying to change your thoughts, and instead, change the way you relate to your experiences.

Do you avoid discomfort and pain?

Chances are the answer is, yes- because pain is uncomfortable.

The thing is, you may fall back on coping mechanisms like chronic procrastination or perfectionism as a means of pain avoidance just to stay in your comfort zone. But, there is a much more effective way to deal with these emotions.

Welcome to episode 3 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode, we are delving into why mental health is important as you journey through wellness, and the reasons why you may be avoiding pain.

Also, why stepping out of your comfort zone is the one thing standing between you and the meaningful life you want to build, and offering you an effective technique to step into these emotions and work through them.

Remember, that your brain is trying its best to keep you safe, but seeking discomfort can lead you to the next best version of yourself!

Do you think there’s a right or wrong way to get the full benefits of exercise?

Is there a running list of good or bad foods on your mind at all times?

Are you feeling discouraged because no matter what you do, you don’t fit the mold of the “ideal” body type?

These ideas can all be attributed to the toxic diet culture we are all exposed to on a daily basis. This way of thinking isn’t only harmful, it’s unhealthy and unattainable. But, a different approach exists, and it’s one that respects and nurtures your body AND feels good!

Welcome to the first episode of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode, we are discussing all things diet culture and how prevalent and maddening it is.

We delve into how it affects our approach to health and fitness, nutrition and mental health. Also, how first becoming aware of it is the first step to detoxing yourself of it for good!

Just because we are swimming in the waters of diet culture every single day, doesn't mean we are destined to drown in it.

You can take control of your health AND enjoy your life in a way that uniquely suits you!
