Trying to improve your physical health without addressing your mental and emotional health is like doing an expensive renovation on a foundation that is imploding. It might work for a while but eventually, the fact that you skipped over the most important work is going to come to light.

So, in this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I talk about the importance of emotional health and how to take responsibility for yours so you can make change stick:) You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-246/ **** Looking for more support?  Join me in the Rumble & Rise arena at https://graceandgrit.com/readytorumble **** Are you loving the Grace and Grit Podcast?  Help us keep the mic on!

Your brain is amazing. It is constantly processing information, making decisions, organizing, caching out and so much more. It does A LOT for you each day AND… Because it’s efficient, the human brain is always looking for shortcuts to conserve energy and make its job easier. That’s what habits are. So, if you want to change your habits, you have to make it EASY for your brain to execute new behaviors. And that is where the concept of “decision-free living” comes in. In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I talk about the incredible power of this practice and how to implement it into your life to skyrocket your success:) You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-245/ **** Looking for more support?  Join me in the Rumble & Rise arena at https://graceandgrit.com/readytorumble **** Are you loving the Grace and Grit Podcast?  Help us keep the mic on!

​I help my clients rumble more gracefully with the parts of their life that feel misaligned so they can stop eating and drinking and Netflix-ing in an attempt to avoid them. And while I wish every client I work with would share their story publicly, I understand that not all of them want to. Much to my delight, however, Patti Ziegler did. I have had the privilege of working with Patti 1:1 for 6 months and in this interview, she shares a bit of what she’s learned, how she’s changed, and why she is so excited for the next chapter of her life. Have a listen. I hope it inspires you as much as it inspired me. You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-242/ **** Ignite Your Self-Confidence Workshop!

There are a lot of things that contribute to the “health” of a human. And, yet, we are often sold measures for improving our health that isolate parts of our humanness. If you want to lose weight, focus on physical health. If you have depression or anxiety, focus on mental health. If you are struggling in your relationships, focus on that. But can you achieve a deep state of health by separating the dimensions of health in this way? I would argue no. Treating 1 dimension of health in isolation is like strengthening 1 body part to try and improve the conditioning of the entire body. When aspiring to improve your health, I am a huge proponent of approaching the work as a generalist rather than as a specialist. Curious to hear more. Check out this episode.

You are a dynamic thing, constantly evolving and forever changing. Which means the state of your health is dynamic too. Wellness culture treats health as a binary thing. You either have it or you don’t. But there is a wide space in between worth considering. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I explore what health looks like in the face of dis-ease, illness, and injury.

Health does not grow in negligent, hostile or toxic places, which the mind can certainly become without proper attention and direction. If you aren’t exerting consistent daily effort to keep your mindset in a place that promotes grace, resilience, and perseverance any goals you achieve will be very short-lived. Managing the mind is single-handedly the most powerful thing a woman could do to improve her health AND it is the most lacking element in most health and wellness programs. In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I share with you six of the most common thoughts that prevent women from reaching the level of health she truly craves.

Comparison has a dark side, no question. It has the capacity to rob you of your happiness, squash your self-confidence and prevent you from taking meaningful action in areas that matter to you. Comparison also has a bright side. Yes, really. Check out this episode to learn more about how to use comparison to fuel you rather than deplete you.

My clients and students all say they have different reasons for working with me: they want to get stronger, they want to shed fat, they want to be able to keep up with their kids or grandkids etc. But really… They all want the same thing, more confidence. Confidence that they will keep the promises they make to themselves. Confidence to move through the world in a way that feels honest and true to them. Confidence to take on the things that have been on their heart for years Confidence to trust their own knowing and make decisions for themselves. Confidence is the REAL byproduct of the skills and strategies I teach women and, in this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I am going to teach you the pathway for developing more of it too. Have a listen! And please share it with a woman who could benefit from the message.

Several years ago I created a FREE five day program called #five2thrive that women are still downloading and reaping value from today. That video series introduces the 5 key elements that I think are paramount to improving health: sleep, hydration, nutrition, movement, and mindset. But there is one other element, I wish I had added to that list. Community. Ladies, we are communal creatures. We aren’t meant to do hard things alone. So, this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast is to remind you about the incredible power of community and connection along the path to change.
