Today Jamie and I dive into the food sensitivity test results, taking a look at the foods that are causing me and my body issues.
I've been working with Jamie for about 7 weeks now and I am already seeing some success. I've lost inches in my mid-section (all bloating from food reactions), there is virtually no pain in my hands and my energy is on the rise.

The food journal has become my best friend, even if I...

While journaling my food habits I discovered I was doing a bit of negative self talk, and that got me thinking... 
Why do we talk negative to ourselves? 
And how do we find ways not to talk negatively to ourselves?

Tracy Brady shares a few things throughout our conversation that we can do to help when we find we're in a negative conversation with ourselves.

My daughter and I talk about once a week. And everytime we talk, we say, that would've made a great podcast. So a few weeks ago on a Saturday morning we talked for almost 3 hours and recorded the whole conversation. I'm sharing the first hour of our conversation, and will follow it up with the 2nd part later this month.

Didn't do much editing so you are getting a very raw and real look at how our mother/daug...

As I walk into 2024 I'm realizing the health issues I learned about in 2023 have continued to decline. I was told my cholesterol was on the rise, my good estrogen was at zero and my bad estrogen was elevated, and I’ve been slowly putting on weight for over a year now.

My lack of action in 2023 leaves me with 2 options; go it alone, which has not worked for me so far. Or phone a friend (who also happens to be a functional nutrit...

Did you know that 9 out of 10 people will fail their new year resolutions?

Did you know that the average resolutions last about 3.74 months?

Yes, yes they will! And because failure of resolution setting is so common, there are unofficial dates commemorating resolution failure. I love this!!

We already know we are going to fail, so why not create a day to celebrate our failures.

The first one is called “Ditch New Year Resolutions Day” a...

On Christmas day I woke up thinking about my sisters and all that we have been through together.
Which got me thinking about birth order and how that impacts how we show up within the family dynamic and maybe in everyday life.

Coming home to yourself.

2023 has been a big year of change for me, one filled with endings and new beginnings. And it was important for me to come home to myself and re-establish a healthy and loving relationship with myself.

Why is it so challenging to feel like we belong with others, or in a group? Maybe it’s because we aren't in the practice of belonging to ourselves.
So what exactly is belonging? 
Belonging is the feeling of security and support when there is a sense of acceptance, inclusion, and identity for a member of a certain group. When an individual can bring their authentic self.
Here’s the cool thing. When we have the cour...

What is it about getting behind the wheel of a car that turns us all into racecar drivers? And why do some of us turn into complete and total assholes, forgetting everything we know about common courtesies. 

Did you know, that the typical reaction time, for stopping at a light, without texting was between one and two seconds, but while texting it increased to three to four seconds, regardless of whether the driver was typi...

Father’s Day is a time for people to celebrate the men in their lives. For children, it is a day to show appreciation for their fathers and father-figures. For adults, it is a day to show how much they love and appreciate the hard work of the fathers and husbands in their lives. 

So how did Father’s Day get started? And what do you do on this day if you don’t have a healthy relationship with your...

This last week the topic of friendly vs friends in a leadership role, came up and it got me thinking. 

Is there a right or a wrong here, or just some best practices to keep in mind while managing human beings? I’ll let you decide…

I believe that when we create these amazing work relationships that say “I’m here for you, and I support you and the job we do together.” When we feel safe, we can be vulnerable and bra...
