201. How to Improve SELF-Control & Reach Your Goals With Tracy Pleschourt
September 20, 2023 05:00 - 56 minutes - 38.8 MBOne common barrier we hear to people achieving their health and weight loss goals is a lack of self-control or self-discipline. We believe self-control is a short-term strategy, not a long-term one. You’re more likely to reach your goals if you have a strong “why” and systems set-up for your success. But you will always need self-control in the little moments of decision during the day that put you on the trajectory to make better, or worse, subsequent choices for the rest of the day. ...
200. Osteoporosis, Fracture, & Fall Prevention With Patrick Donovan, PT, DPT
September 13, 2023 05:00 - 52 minutes - 35.9 MBAccording to the CDC, 51.5% of women over 50 have low bone mass. This statistic blew our mind! Without proper treatment, this can develop into osteoporosis and greatly impact your fracture risk, mobility, and quality of life. Unless you get a DEXA scan, it’s hard to know if you have low bone mass. Maintaining your strength and balance can be the difference between living independently or in an assisted living facility…or between an assisted living facility and long-term care. So those wh...

[Sneak-Peak Lesson] The Law of Attraction (for Your Health) *Limited-Time*
September 10, 2023 05:00 - 27 minutes - 18.6 MBWe believe sustainable weight loss and better health occurs as 2 sides of the same coin. There’s the strategy side, and the mindset side of the coin. The mindset side consists of your thoughts, emotions, and habits which manifest as your weight and health. You cannot master your physical state without also mastering your mental and emotional state. Your thoughts create your emotions, your emotions drive your actions, and your actions create your results. This lesson does a great job expl...

June 21, 2023 05:00 - 50 minutes - 35 MBAnyone who has struggled with insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, trouble staying asleep, or waking up too early knows how a bad night of sleep can make everything harder. Good sleep is essential for good physical, mental, and emotional health. One of the biggest barriers to losing weight in midlife and after menopause is poor sleep.

April 26, 2023 05:00 - 4 minutes - 2.94 MBOne common mistake I see when people are losing weight or improving their health is… inadvertently raising their stress by using the word “need.” How many times a day do you have thoughts like… “I need to go to the gym” or “I need to meal prep.” You don’t actually need to do anything. In fact, using the word need is counterproductive to your weight loss and health goals. 👉You don’t need the word need. 👈 The word need, along with should, and have to, are three things that cause stre...

179. THIS Will Help Reduce Emotional Eating (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)
April 05, 2023 05:00 - 7 minutes - 5.4 MBYears ago I interviewed an emotional eating expert for the podcast. I still remember being so surprised that the #1 personality trait of an emotional eater was… ✖️Not perfectionism. ✖️Not being a control freak. ✅ Being a people pleaser.

March 15, 2023 05:00 - 10 minutes - 7.31 MBThis weight loss mindset tip episode was spurred from a post on James Clear’s instagram account. It said: “It doesn’t make sense to continue wanting something if you aren’t willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don’t want to live the lifestyle, release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process, is to guarantee disappointment.” Have you ever felt like you’ve worked so hard for so long to reach a goal, and still aren’t where you want to be?

March 08, 2023 06:00 - 10 minutes - 7.13 MBWe’ve all been there… Tempted to skip a workout we said we were going to do. The little angel on one shoulder encourages you to go.
