In today’s episode, I’m going to be talking about four heavy hitters when it comes to losing body fat.

These are aspects of the physique change process that aren’t often talked about because truthfully they’re probably the hardest to address, but that's exactly why I want to dive into them in today's episode.

They are:

• The connection between stress, weight and hormonal balance
• The connection between emotional well-being and weight loss resistance
• The muscle mass/ weight loss connection
• Underlying unaddressed health issues

In today's short podcast, I wanted to introduce you to a concept that has dramatically impacted how I approach the care of my body. And that is "body stewardship."

I will define what body stewardship is, what it is not, and hopefully prompt you to think about this concept and how it applies to your own perspective towards your body and the way in which you care for it.

In today's episode I'm deep diving into three idols that might be preventing you from stewarding your body well. These areas are Food, Exercise & Rest. Your relationship with, and perspective towards these three areas play a huge role in the decisions you make in the name of body stewardship.

• What is body stewardship (I recommend going back and listening to Ep.3 FIRST if you've not listened to it already)
• the Idol of Food
• the Idol of Exercise
• the Idol of Rest
• Closing

• If you cannot do it perfectly you don't do it at all
• You chase diets, you don't build habits
• You're trying to change too much too fast
• You're results focused not behaviors focused
• You're planning based on your "best" day not your typical day
• You aren't addressing your mindset

Love your body.
Love yourself.
You're perfect the way you are.

Messages like these sound pretty good don't they?

But in todays podcast, I dig deeper. I take us into scripture, which reveals not only that the message of "love your body, love yourself" isn't biblical, it's also not the panacea to body image struggles that it's marketed to be.

I'll discuss:

• What body positivity/love your body is
• Why it's an impossible and unnecessary ask
• The slippery slope of self love
• Caring for the body versus loving the body
• How scripture addresses the body and body image
• The REAL solution to body image struggles isn't ourselves. It's Jesus.

How can you approach social settings, social events, picnics, birthdays, parties, dinners out, get togethers, etc in light of the fact that you're trying to create change in your habits around food and eating?

In today's episode, this is the topic I'm tackling.

I will discuss:

• How giving others the benefit of the doubt can go a long way to changing your experience
• The importance of communication and asking for support
• How you can view these situations as opportunities to show up as future you
• Why watching your words matters a great deal
• What to do when people are negative, nasty or mean towards you or your new health habits
• Respecting others food choices earns that respect in return

In today's episode I'm tackling a trending topic- hormonal birth control.

Ironically, this episode is releasing in the wake of a controversial Washington Post article (which I will link below in the show notes) about the explosion of women who are stopping their birth control because they aren't have a positive experience while on it.

I have blogged on this topic in years past, and done several posts on Instagram, but I wanted to do a full podcast, because it's something I feel very very passionate about.

Women deserve to have all the information PRIOR to taking birth control, and unfortunately many times they are not given this by their providers.

In today's episode I will discuss:

• The widespread use of hormonal birth control
• The dangers of giving birth control use to teenage girls
• Why natural ovulation is important for women's health
• Why birth control is not a true root cause solution, at best it is symptom management
• The short and long term side effects of birth control use

In today's episode I am taking on one of the biggest limiting factors I see in the clients I work with: ALL OR NOTHING THINKING.

How often have you caught yourself saying things like:

• I eat great during the week but I “always” binge the weekends.
• I “never” make it more than three weeks into a diet before I mess it up.
• Now is not a good time. There’s too much happening. I’ll start when I can give it all my attention
• I just downed a row of Oreos. Well, I guess my diet is “ruined” might as well finish the whole package.

This is all or nothing thinking and I promise you, it is hurting your ability to reach your goals.

Today I'll discuss:

• What is all or nothing thinking?
• Why do we do it?
• What are the negative effects of all or nothing thinking?
• A step by step process for working your way out of all or nothing thinking

Weight loss versus fat loss. These two terms are often used interchangeably, however they mean something very different and that's exactly what I'm diving into in this episode. Once you understand the differences between weight loss and fat loss, you will understand how to lose weight the RIGHT way, and keep it off. For good.

We will be unpacking:

• Weight loss versus fat loss- what is the difference?
• Why a focus just on losing weight almost always leads to weight regain
• Metabolic adaptations to weight loss
• How to shift from a focus on losing weight to losing fat
• The importance of muscle in metabolism and weight maintenance long term

This episode offers 4 action steps you can take TODAY to focus on fat loss, not just weight loss!

In today's episode, I want to tackle the question: Does God Care About My Body? As Christians, many of us tend to emphasize the spiritual over the physical, yet, as I'll discuss today, God created us as embodied souls. He chose to give us a physical body. And only when we understand how much our bodies matter to God will we truly be able to value our bodies ourselves.

If you have not already listened to my episodes discussing body stewardship, I recommend starting with Episode 3 "What is Body Stewardship?"

And Episode 6 "Idols that prevent us from stewarding our bodies well."

In today's short episode, I simply want to take us into Scripture, so that you understand what God thinks about the physical body, why it matters to Him, and why, consequently, it should matter to us.

I'll be discussing:

• How unawareness of how much God values the body is part of the reason why we fail to value our own bodies
• God created us as embodied souls for a reason
• Scriptural references as to why the physical body matters
• How a biblical view of the body can help shape the way we view our bodies and care for our bodies

In today's podcast I'm tackling the topic of Ozempic. While the benefits of this drug are everywhere, what's less talked about, are the downsides to using this drug.

I want to cover those downsides, the potential risks (especially when discontinuing Ozempic) share some practical strategies to mitigate the negative metabolic effects if you are on Ozempic or want to take it, and then lastly, offer you natural science backed alternatives to using these drugs- alternatives that will work just as well, for LIFE, with no side effects whatsoever.

I will be discussing:

• How these drugs work
• How did we get here? Where these drugs are so popular and widespread used?
• The impact of Ozempic on weight loss and maintenance.
• Potential downsides of rapid weight loss, including muscle loss and metabolic adaptation.
• Practical strategies to mitigate muscle loss and maintain metabolic health if you do chose to use these drugs
• Natural science backed ways to increase GLP-1 in the body without taking Ozempic
