Fuel Her Awesome- Food Freedom, Intuitive Eating, Empowered Eating, Overcoming Obsession With Weight Loss, Strength Training

Hey friends, I missed you! I'm so glad to be back!! One of the coolest things about stepping away was being able to focus on a recalibration and re-centering on why we have the Fuel Her Awesome show and the purpose and mission of this show.

Today we're talking about rest, recalibration, and getting ready to absolutely crush your goals. If you are someone who has high expectations for yourself, sometimes letting go and resting is harder than doing. Do you relate? 

Let's have a conversation about how we can step into that next chapter, with faith in the process, even when we may feel afraid.

As I've been navigating my own challenges as I move into a new chapter, I reali...

Today, I'm having another incredibly stimulating, exciting, and interesting conversation with Dr. David Wiss. I was drawn to Dr. Wiss because he's been opening doors to a conversation that is pretty controversial in my field. 

At the professional level in the dietetic world, there is this polarization happening. Either you are 'anti-diet' or you are part of the 'diet culture' problem. As an eating disorder professional, this has ...

In today's episode, we are talking about how to raise empowered eaters. As a mama, this topic is super close to my heart, and if you are a mama, I know this topic is going to be helpful to you. If you're not a mama, maybe you have nieces or nephews, or are a teacher or work with children in some type of role. In one capacity or another, we all have interactions with the next generation. So, whether you check that mama box or not, I...

In today's episode you get to listen in to a very juicy conversation with two of my favorite colleagues, and this conversation has been brewing for at least a couple of years.

The concept of intuitive eating can sometimes seem really hard to navigate in today's world. Intuitive eating has completely revolutionized and pushed back against 'diet culture' and this is a beautiful thing! But, now we have this whole population of folks...

Ready or not, we're in the second week of 2024 and we are knee deep in 'weight-loss season'. So, I think it's a great time to have a conversation about: what really works for weight loss, what doesn't work for weight loss, how does our metabolism work, and how can we move through all the noise and stay on the empowered eating course.

Now, I believe in defining your health goals based on what YOU value. Sometimes that involves wei...

Hello gorgeous! I'm so glad you're here today because I am so passionate about this topic, this idea, of differentiating between discipline and rigidity. This topic is such a crucial component in your healthy food and body journey, but it can also feel complicated. The gains are so worth it though, because when we can differentiate between discipline and rigidity things become a lot more clear.

Now, if you have a history of strug...

Hey my friend, welcome to 2024! Today we're talking about how to set yourself up for empowered eating in the next 30 days. This is such a great time to reflect on the past year, and set some goals for the year ahead, to truly set ourselves up for an empowered eating makeover this new year. 

One of the ways I have found beneficial in setting, and attaining, goals is to take some time to mindfully reset and reframe our entire envir...
