Ep 145Ep 145: Best Nutrition & Mindset Resources + Dealing With Exercise Addiction With A Desk Job
This episode is all about becoming smarter and more aware! After catching up and talking recent workouts, we tackled some AWESOME reader questions... "I was listening recently you mentioned that you just finished the book "The Microbiome Diet." I have been struggling with my digestion for the past 2 months and following the Paleo guidelines, but it doesn't seem to be fixing the issue. I can only imagine that it has something to do with my gut. I am curious as to which other nutrition books you have read and enjoyed in the past and which ones you are looking into. I am currently a personal trainer and have lately been very interested in nutrition. I would like to keep learning and broaden my knowledge on all of the latest nutritional trends that we have seen in our society." What a great question! Books mentioned: The Microbiome Diet The Paleo Cure Eat To Live (Not recommended) The Wild Diet The Mind-Gut Connection (Super stoked to start) And a few favorite mindset resources discussed: Infinite Possibilities Dying To Be Me Finish Sarah Blakely (on Youtube) And the 2nd question we discussed dealing with exercise compulsion/addiction when you're stuck at a desk all day. How to relief feelings of anxiety from non-movement and to safely fit movement in your day. Make sure to hit up FitWomensWeekly.net and sign up for FREE for the 12 days of Sweat & Strength!

Ep 130Ep 130: Former Combat Photographer Stacy Pearsall Transforms Her Life & Body After Post War Injuries & Weight Gain

Ep 127Ep. 127: Have We All Forgotten How To JUST Eat?
Macros, intermittent fasting, paleo, Whole30, keto... it's as if we need a plan to survive and eat. The other day I was telling Dan that I was going to start IF (intermittent fasting) with Alex to which he responded with... "Why do women need a plan for eating!? Why can't you just eat good food, leave out the sugar and just eat when you're hungry?" The man has a point. For so long, I've been tracking macros or trying something. Have we (women) forgotten how to naturally eat? Why do we need a plan? I talk about it today and also fill you guys in on some random happenings!

Ep 126Ep. 126: I Love You Girls Gone Wod But... Body Image Chat
Girls Gone Wod with Joy and Claire is one of my favorite podcast. It's two friends sitting together and talking about life, food, fitness and everything else in between. But recently Joy has been having a lot of deep chats about body image, what's positive and what's negative and how women are bringing one another down on social media by showing off their bodies instead of physical strengths. As someone who has battled exercise addiction and food obsessions, I get it. But That doesn't mean I don't have a counter argument. Luckily, Ashley (@AshleyDrummonds) is with me and we share VERY similar thoughts on positive body image between ladies. So sit back and enjoy. If you have thoughts don't hesitate to share!

Ep 122Ep. 122: What Happens When Your Period Don't Return After Cutting Back Exercise?
We've heard stories about the women who lost their periods due to high intensity exercise, so they cut back for a bit, ate more and voila... period returns. (Listen to Ep 111 for Tina Muir's story). But that's not always the case. What happens when you cut back on exercise, relax more with food, and nothing happens? No period, no hormonal changes... just frustration and more waiting. That's what's going on for my friend Emma (@healthybalancewithemma). I feel honored that she asked to share her story and the steps she's taken to work for her fertility. In today's episode she shares everything. What led her to not have a period. How long she waited before seeing a doctor. And the steps she has taken since to try and regain her fertility.
