I love Philip Pape’s approach to health, because everything he teaches is evidence-based.

So today he’s joining me on the podcast to unpack a few “trendy” nutrition and fitness topics like fat loss, muscle building, protein, calorie-counting, satiety, GLP-1s and more!

Join us a we explore what’s really going on with health and weight loss — especially for women over forty. And don’t forget that this spring I’m teaching the first and only live round of Your Emotional Eating Blueprint: Why Am I Eating This Now? course, which you can hear more about by getting on my email list here

We discuss:

  • Mindset shifts for health over 40
  • Why Philip uses the term “fat loss” instead of “weight loss”
  • Over-fat vs under-muscled & why that’s a false dichotomy
  • Why crash diets don’t work
  • How Ali shifted her nutrition through perimenopause and menopause
  • Protein’s role in satiety and satisfaction
  • Walking vs running and the importance of sleep
  • GLP-1s and dieting

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
