Nutrition

February 10, 2021 11:00 - 24 minutes - 46.3 MB

I find that most people are obsessed with finding “the right way to eat”. They want to know the nutritional food plan that will fix their eating habits forever.   And get them the result with their body that they want. But this approach always leaves them stuck. Because they’re focusing on “what they’re eating” and not “how they’re eating”. In this episode, I share what you should (and shouldn’t) focus on when it comes to nutrition. And when a focus on nutrition can be prioriti...

It’s common for us to feel like we want to fix our eating habits and weight. Like we want to control every aspect of our food choices. So we can finally get the result with our bodies that we want.

This is the time of the year where many are seeking accountability partners. In order to increase their chances of following through with their healthy eating goals. From experience, I know this approach with food never works long-term. Because you’re depending on someone else to achieve the results you want with food and body. And you’re not taking full responsibility over the way you’re eating right now. In this episode, I’m sharing what it really takes to be accountable with hea...

Your Food Story

January 13, 2021 11:00 - 19 minutes - 36.4 MB

What emotion comes to mind when you think about your past with food? How are you deciding to write your food story? Most of us are focused on our future, healthy eating goals that we want to achieve.

In this episode, I explain why the story you have about your eating habits matters. And how you can rewrite your food story to create the future eating h...

Self Sabotage

December 02, 2020 11:00 - 21 minutes - 39.7 MB

I find most people have no idea why they’re sabotaging their eating habits. Especially when they want to change their results so badly. The desire for change is there.

Slowing Down

Most of us tend to live fast-paced lives. We’re always focused on the next task and what we want to accomplish. As in, we have a very, very hard time slowing down.

Natural Fullness

November 11, 2020 11:00 - 18 minutes - 15.4 MB

It’s common for us to misinterpret our fullness. We will often define fullness as feeling “stuffed”. Or uncomfortably full. We tend to do this when we’ve lost the ability to access our natural fullness cues. Which we need to tell us when we should stop eating in a way that serves our bodies. In this episode, I explain what natural fullness really entails. And how you can access your natural fullness to tell you when to stop eating, always. Learn more at: https://katrentas.com/n...

How do you determine when you’re actually hungry? Can you pinpoint what natural hunger feels like to you? The truth is, most people have no idea what natural hunger feels like for them.

The concept of overeating can be a heavy one for most. It’s a topic with a fair amount of stigma, fear, and shame around it.
