"I need to think about it"- this is a statement I've been hearing too many women say too often to too many THINGS and situations that can be GOOD for them. This podcast is dedicated to re-thinking this phrase and why we need to seriously STOP using it so much and start GOING FOR IT. Too many women say NO to ourselves far too often out of guilt, shame, or fear. Enough of that. Time to shed these limiting beliefs and practices and FLY sister!

Most of us trying to lose weight and get fit focus on our diet- as we have always been told that 90% of fitness is about our nutrition. In many cases that's true. But- often, we can't see the forest for the trees-- we need to consider the bigger picture. What HABITS and daily practices or attitudes are constantly preventing us from making progress? In this show we talk about how to focus on cutting out bad habits and attitudes vs. worrying only about cutting calories.
Ever had a MELTDOWN- a day when maybe you weighed yourself and just lost it after you saw the scale jump up several pounds? Or maybe a friend or co-worker made a comment about your weight and it crushed your ego. Perhaps you tried on those skinny jeans thinking they'd fit and they didn't. Whatever the cause, we can have MELTDOWNS a lot- and often, they can derail our progress. Therein lies the opportunity. The faster you can pull yourself OUT of a meltdown and keep on keeping on -- the better! Learn how!

If you are listening to this show, it's likely you are already on a fitness journey. If you've been stuck in your weight loss in any way, this show is for you. I share why I've learned that consistency to whatever path/workout plan/diet we choose is key- consistency over the LONG-TERM-- that trumps everything. Too many women quit and start over 1000x and if they'd realize how much time they LOSE when they do that....they'd stop and just STAY THE PATH. That's how you win at weight loss.
So many women write to me and say "I know something is wrong with me-- I'm gaining weight, have no sex drive, get headaches all the time, I'm moody, can't sleep, have no energy.....I can't figure it out"- and I ask them : what are you DOING ABOUT IT? They usually answer: nothing. This show is for all you ladies who think you have hormonal imbalance but aren't yet taking action. Let's talk about how much your LIFE will change for the better when you do!
I was single and lonely for most of my adult life. I was the woman everyone wondered "why aren't you married?". And yet, I was stuck in the land of only being asked out by 25 year old guys or married men. I made a decision in 2017 that I was going to meet the love of my life and - I DID - and it's beyond anything I could ever imagine. This is what I want for others to know: you can achieve the greatest love of your life at any time. Don't give up. Make it happen!

In today's episode I talk about the importance of strength training for women- all women. I recorded this show because I still hear so many women saying things like "I'm worried I'll bulk up if I lift heavy weights" or women who just keep adding more cardio hoping to achieve an ideal "toned" body-- and what they don't know is - the #1 most important thing to achieve that "Toned" look is weight-lifting. Tune in to learn more about why this is SO IMPORTANT.
In this last "bonus episode" to close up my mini-series on "My Top 10 Weight Loss Mistakes and How I'm Fixing Them" I'm talking about the importance of genuine BODY LOVE- cultivating an authentic self-love situation for our bodies. We are so hard on ourselves and often hold ourselves up to such unrealistic expectations-- we cause an undue amount of stress. That stress is what can often impede if not prohibit our weight loss progress and as such it's a vicious cycle. Let's stop the madness and start LOVING ourselves more.
In this bonus episode I talk about the importance of surrounding yourself with friends who support you and inspire you-- and enhance your life instead of tempting you to take 3 steps back. Too many of us keep negative, critical, low-performing people in our lives out of a sense of obligation and we don't recognize the damage they can do: how their attitudes and criticisms can hold us back from becoming our best selves. Let's think about the impact it can make to do some PRUNING in the friend area.
This is bonus episode #1 to close up my mini-series on "My Top 10 Weight Loss Mistakes and How I'm Fixing Them". This episode talks about the life-changing (yes, life-changing!!) habit of MAKING DECLARATIONS. I share 3 big life changes that happened after I DECLARED I would do something-- and then took massive action toward the goal. You'll change your future if you listen to this show and apply the practice, I promise. It works!
Welcome to the finale of this 10-episode mini-series on my Top 10 Weight Loss Mistakes and HOW I'M FIXING THEM. Today I talk about why it's so important and will be transformational in every way if we can commit to a full YEAR of improving our health. I've come to realize how much damage we do to our health and hormones when we try to make fat loss happen FASTER at all costs. And ultimately it very often won't even work. It's time for a new mindset: slow, sustainable shredding. Listen in!
In this episode I talk about how important it is for us to have realistic - long-term timelines for weight loss. We are so easily drawn to fitness programs that offer dramatic transformations in 4-6 weeks - sometimes less -- and the data overwhelmingly shows that the FASTER you lose weight, the less likely it is going to stay off. The more slowly and consistently you lose weight, the more likely that weight loss will be permanent. Furthermore, giving ourselves a reasonable timeline decreases STRESS and improves wellness. All good.
This episode will resonate with so many of you- because I know that you, like me, have done this without even realizing. You've put off LIVING YOUR LIFE to the fullest "until..."-- until you lose 10 lbs or until you are a size X or until you feel good about your arms or your butt or your thighs. Can you relate? We think we need to be perfect- to date, to go out and have fun, even to go to the gym!! It's time to stop idealizing the pursuit of perfection and start LIVING again while we pursue IMPROVEMENT.
In this episode I talk about the importance of self-care. We hear about #selfcare a LOT but many of us dismiss it thinking we "don't have time" or we think "I WISH I had money or time for self-care!"- -it's those times and those people that need it the most. In this podcast I talk about what happened in my life "before and after"- before, when I WAS making self-care a priority, and how I was flourishing in all areas of my life, and then when I let it slip, and all areas started to flounder. Now I'm back to making it a priority!
Supplements. They aren't a magic pill. But they work, if you take them, and take them consistently. In this episode I talk about why supplements are NOT snake oil- they are not a secret solution so that you don't have to work out and diet, but they are integral to our health. Tune in to learn about why you'll benefit from making taking your vitamins daily a top priority.
If you are frustrated trying to lose weight-- it's very natural to think that the answer might be "eat less, move more"- and in fact many DOCTORS will even say this to women who come in asking for help (when really what they need is an integrative medicine doc who can help with comprehensive bloodwork to balance the hormones that are out of whack!)-- but the truth is, all the endless hours of cardio aren't working, and in many cases, they can make our situation worse. Tune in to learn why.
Too many women who are trying to lose weight focus only on the weight loss and don't realize how much their body is in need of healing. I talk about this issue and why HEALING- from the inside out is sooo key to inevitable weight loss success.
In this episode of my 10-episode "mini-series" on the top 10 weight loss mistakes I've made in the past, I talk about mindset. I cover that adage "We don't see things as they are- we see things as WE are." After you tune in to this episode and think about how your emotions may be controlling your consistency (or lack of it), you'll realize how important your mindset is in predicting weight loss success.

This is episode 2 in my series of 10- and in this show I talk about the concept of "What you look for, you will find". It's all about mindset, and how we view ourselves, how we talk to ourselves, how we believe in ourselves- and how all of these things - if done the right way, will fuel our activity and keep us on track, keep us from giving up. If done incorrectly they set us up for getting sidetracked or even quitting.
This is the beginning of a 10 episode series where I break down my top 10 fitness and weight loss mistakes that I've made in the past- that I am correcting NOW-- for REAL RESULTS. If you have struggled like me and feel like you eat healthy and work out but are stuck at weight loss- I know that one or two or all of these mistakes will likely hit home for you and you'll be so glad you had the a-ha moment-- as you hear it-- because now you can CHANGE IT!!
If you are stuck in your weight loss journey- and feel like you've been dieting forever, and not getting anywhere-- this episode is for you. If you fall into this category and aren't weighing yourself or taking progress photos of yourself or measuring yourself or all of the above- you are missing out on an opportunity to see far better success than ever before -- in this episode I explain how DATA can be your best friend and how DATA takes all of the EMOTION out of the weight loss journey- and that's the #1 reason (emotion) why people quit. Let's change that!
Too many women strive to do too much, too often and to be too many things to too many people. We think we can be Wonder Woman-- and we just keep GOING AND GOING AND GOING-- and this is why adrenal fatigue and even burnout are becoming more and more common in women of all ages. In this show I talk about how I realized I had STOPPED making my own self-care a priority and how that had a huge negative impact on my health, my work and my life. Now that I'm prioritizing it again, everything is improving. Learn how you can do the same.
The devil is in the details when it comes to weight loss. And many of us have some seriously bad habits when it comes to EATING-- from eating too fast to ordering too much to "last supper" thinking around cheat meals and more. In this episode I share my insights and some of the changes that my man and I have made that are helping us stay really on track with our diets-- and yet still enjoy all the foods- and even adult beverages. Losing weight doesn't have to mean nothing but boiled chicken and broccoli y'all!
Today I have Gunny Sodhi - founder of YouVeda and an Ayurveda expert- on the show to talk about immunity. In this time of the pandemic, everyone is hearing a lot of talk about the immune system but- do we really know what it means to "boost our immune system"? I asked Gunny on the show to talk about the immune system, how it's tied to the gut (go figure) and how we can boost our immunity naturally.
A lot of women complain about being STUCK in their weight loss journey. I certainly have been one of them. And yet, many of us don't realize how BAD our attitude and mindset is- and how that mindset, TRULY- your state of mind- has an effect on the kind of results you'll see. I share in great detail in this 2 part episode how I have changed my mindset in other areas of my life (my business and in my LOVE life) and manifested OUTSTANDING success-- and now I'm doing it in my fitness/weight loss journey. Watch and learn.

Red Light Therapy is getting a lot of buzz lately and for good reason. When I started reading more and more about the myriad health benefits behind Red Light Therapy - from my chiropractor and from my integrative medicine doctor and from books- I knew I had to get some in my world. I asked the founder of MITO Red Light to come on the show and explain why red light therapy is so beneficial for our health-- for both men and women. Trust me, you'll be buying a red light machine after this show!

Too many women are stuck in their fitness journey. The problem is - they don't ever take the time to realize how long they've been stuck and that if they don't make big changes, absolutely nothing will change. They will be forever stuck in a weight loss plateau. If this is you, this show is for you. It's time to put your money where your mouth is, and I'll explain how and why I came to the conclusion in my life that it was time to hire a personal trainer.

Too many women want to lose weight and have been "trying everything" for years-- and are not seeing results. But - they haven't typically tried EVERYTHING. Many women- I was one of them, are not tracking their activity, their food, and being able to have a set of data points at their disposal to make informed decisions from. You can't tell if you have been successful if you don't track what you are doing- and then test and tweak, test again etc. That's what work. Data is a beautiful thing. Learn more why it should be your best friend.
So many people suffer from sleep problems- either not being able to fall asleep or not being able to stay asleep- and very few understand 1) how much this will negatively affect your health if left untreated and 2) that this insomnia thing can be TREATED. There are treatments and lifestyle changes you can make that can dramatically improve your sleep life and therefore- your health and wellness. Tune in to learn more in the first of this series with Dr. Deirdre Conroy.
This episode is a Kelly O SOLO show-- where I discuss my latest bloodwork results and what my doctor has decided to change in my treatment for balancing my hormones. Specifically we are working on increasing my cortisol levels as they are SUPER LOW and my T3 is almost non-existent. So I share my change in treatment and also some food for thought on how we all need to be more PROACTIVE when it comes to our health vs so casual. That's where real transformation happens - not when you just wait for it to show up on its own.

In this 2 part interview, you'll learn about much more than just her fantastic chocolate bars. You'll learn why it's so important to read labels on food- for YOURSELF and for your kids' health.

One of the top questions I get on a regular basis is around working out when you have adrenal fatigue or cortisol issues. I talk on this show from personal experience about the mistakes I've made in the past- the bad advice I've followed (and wished I hadn't) and the good advice I follow now- and how I've learned to listen to my gut and become self-aware-- that's key in managing your hormones and sticking to your fitness game even when you have adrenal issues.
When Gunny Sodhi's young brother died at age 16 while Gunny was in college- it altered his life forever. It was that event which ultimately led him to begin applying Ayurvedic practices to his life to help him heal emotionally. He experienced such profound change through this, he kept with it.
