Finding Wellness
268 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 1 month ago -The wellness space is cluttered with gurus who swear they have the best solution but the truth is only YOU know what works best for you and your body, mind and spirit. We've been conditioned to think of health as thinness or the absence of illness. But we need to start thinking more holistically beyond just what our body looks and feels like. My goal is to help you look at your whole life: your career, your spirituality, your mental health, your environement, etc. to see how you can support your overall health and wellbeing. Get curious, listen to your body, and start making small shifts today that will have a big impact tomorrow! You are worth the time, money, energy and effort required to live a full, complete, happy and healthy life!

158. Life Update: Body Image and Fitness While on Vacation
March 28, 2024 09:00 - 27 minutes - 19 MBIn today's episode I talk about how to navigate your wellness goals when life comes at you fast. It's OK to take a few steps back and adjust your expectations of yourself sometimes. In fact, I would argue that doing this instead of either giving up entirely or trying to "push through" will set you up to get "back on track" quicker in the long run. I also share about a recent experience I had with negative body image thoughts and whether or not I should workout on an upcoming vacation. Conn...

March 21, 2024 09:00 - 26 minutes - 18 MBIs losing the last 5-10 pounds REALLY worth it? Spoiler alert!! The answer is most likely NO. I'm not here to shit on your weightloss goals BUT I am here to help you set realistic, attainable and most importantly SUSTAINABLE goals. And the reality is those last 5 to 10 pounds can require a level of dedication and commitment that is not only not sustainable but can also have negative impacts on your long term health.

August 10, 2023 09:00 - 21 minutes - 14.6 MBWe live in an Amazon Prime, instant feedback driven world and the same is true for our health. We might give something a try for a few days or even a few weeks and when we don't see immediate results, we QUIT!

150. It's OK to have body goals but I don't miss the person I was 5 or 10 years ago
July 20, 2023 12:00 - 22 minutes - 15.4 MBToday we're talking about the gym, summer shred programs, wanting to lose weight and get back to your old self. For me, I've come to a place where I do have weight loss goals BUT I'm not attached to an actual "goal weight". I have an idea in my head around the weight I was when I felt strong and fast. BUT I wouldn't trade who I am today for who I was then. That person was a hangry bitch. She was full of anxiety and her coping skills were limited to spending hours doing cardio and drinking to...

April 07, 2023 15:00 - 23 minutes - 16.1 MBI don't know about you but I have been so wrapped up in anti-diet culture content that I thought if I was offered a plate of pasta I had to eat it. Otherwise, I was "giving in to diet culture". I think I needed this particular season on my wellness journey but I am really excited to start tuning in to ME. What does MY body want? What makes ME feel good? I'm really excited to go on this journey and to share with you along the way. Connect with Megan: Connect with Megan on Instagram @megan...

145. Is this the thing that's keeping you stuck?
March 16, 2023 12:00 - 16 minutes - 11.7 MBMany of us are feeling stuck when it comes to our health and wellness goals. With summer right around the corner you might feel pressured to lose weight or "tone up". Today I argue that while it might be possible for you to do those things right now, maybe right now isn't the right time. Taking a look at your life more holistically may reveal other areas of your life that might need to be your main focus right now.

142. Toxic messages about mental health in the wellness and personal development spaces
February 23, 2023 11:00 - 20 minutes - 13.9 MBToday we're discussing two of the most toxic messages about mental health in the wellness and personal development spaces. These two messages in particular were a HUGE part of the reason it took me so long to get help for my mental health. Be careful who you follow, who you're getting advice from and the beliefs you choose to subscribe to. Make sure you're not getting in your own way when it comes to feeling better. Also understand that medicine is a piece to the puzzle, not the end all be a...

139. "Getting in shape sucks" - Is this mindset holding you back?
February 03, 2023 14:00 - 20 minutes - 14.1 MBWe're one full month into 2023 and many of us are working on our wellness goals. I heard a saying on a podcast that I thought I really connected with. That saying was "being in shape is awesome, but getting in shape sucks". When I heard that I thought, OMG that's so f*cking true! But as I've taken the last month to step up my running game and "get back in shape" I had a change of opinion around that saying and that mindset in general. I hope this reframe benefits you as you continue on your ...

January 19, 2023 15:00 - 22 minutes - 15.2 MBI've spent the last few years on a journey of learning about myself and healing from anxiety and depression. Along the way, I've learned the importance of self care and really became protective of my energy. And while that is an amazing thing to be able to do for yourself, I also didn't really push myself out of my comfort zone too much and held myself back from growth along the way. I'm not upset about this because it's all part of the journey! BUT I'm ready to push myself this year in my w...

Today I'm sharing some pretty powerful reminders as we wrap up this holiday season and close the door on 2022.

If you're struggling with your self-care routine or just don't know where to start, the No BS Mama Self-Care...

132. 5 Ways I'm supporting my wellness through the holidays
November 29, 2022 16:00 - 17 minutes - 12 MBThe internet is flooded with fitness gurus who are shouting from the rooftops the best way to get fit, lose weight, etc. I'm here to remind you that YOU are the expert on you.

I'm slowing coming out of that and will be experimenting with some things that I believe work...
131. Newsflash! You get to define what success looks like
November 08, 2022 16:00 - 23 minutes - 15.9 MBWe're so quick to beat ourselves up and say that we're failing. We're so quick to say nothing is going right and everything is a mess. But when was the last time you actually took inventory of your life and actually defined what success means to you? How can you say you're failing if you haven't even defined what success looks like? You have nothing to measure. Tune in to hear how this perspective shift really made me reflect in the last couple of weeks. If you're struggling with your self...
130. A heartfelt look back over the past year
November 03, 2022 15:00 - 22 minutes - 15.2 MBI know we usually evaluate the year at the end of December or beginning of January, but I had an epiphany recently that forced me to take a look back over the past 12 months and everything that has happened since last November. From dealing with anger and grief, to quitting my job, to building my self-care and resilience habits, getting used to life without Timmy in the house and so much more. If you're struggling with your self-care routine or just don't know where to start, the No BS Mam...
129. Sick of hearing about 'self-care'? Let's REDEFINE what self-care is and what it looks like!
November 01, 2022 13:00 - 19 minutes - 13.4 MB"There's no massage in the world that's going to undo a decade of neglect!" If you're sick of hearing things like "make sure you're practicing self-care" it's likely because you're thinking about it all wrong. When I talk about self-care, I'm not talking about the spa days, the bubble baths, the weekend get-aways, etc. I'm talking about the disciplined habits throughout your day and throughout your week that prevent you from getting to that depleted place. Self-care shouldn't be a grand g...

127. Mamas! Use this idea to prioritize your self-care needs no matter what!
October 25, 2022 20:00 - 17 minutes - 12.1 MBLet's ditch the all or nothing mentality when it comes to prioritizing our self-care. Today we're talking about using the idea of a minimum baseline to make sure you're getting your needs met no matter what! Because yes, it would be great if we could all have a full hour (or more) of self-care practices every day. But the reality is that's not always possible and some days really are just jam packed. So if we can establish a bare minimum effort, that takes 10-15 minutess max, we make sure th...

October 04, 2022 19:00 - 28 minutes - 19.5 MBSometimes we hold on to good things because...well because they're good. Why fix what's not broken, right?

September 20, 2022 16:00 - 23 minutes - 16.4 MBWhen we're feeling like shit or feeling stuck it's EASY to feel sorry for ourselves or to wish we were further along than we are right now. But I encourage you to look back instead of looking ahead. In what ways are you different today than you were back then? THAT is something to be proud of, something worth celebrating. I know it doesn't come easy to you to recognize your growth so let this be your reminder. Learn more about the No BS Mama Support Sesh HERE This opportunity is for you i...

August 16, 2022 14:00 - 17 minutes - 12 MBIt's unpopular opinion time!
