I have been thinking a lot lately about fatigue vs burnout. They are both very real challenges this time of year for a lot of people. However, they are NOT the same thing and they require different levels of self-care. If you are physically tired, sleep and rest ARE the solutions. If you are mentally burnout or feeling emotionally “flat” and/or uninspired – it could be that sleep and rest are “part” of the solution but you might need something MORE than that. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, we explore what the “more” might look like:) You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-306/ **** Looking for more support?

You may have the best of intentions to travel through the holiday season with intention, grace, and ease this year AND you may also find yourself sliding down the slippery slope of negotiating your way out of your good intentions if you aren’t careful. A lot of people call this self-sabotage. Moreover, the personal development space uses this label a lot. Which, personally, I think is a mistake and hugely problematic because it implies that you are intentionally hurting yourself. You’re not. In this episode, I help you explore a few possibilities of what’s actually going on. You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-305/ **** Looking for more support?

What a beautiful thing is to witness a woman reclaiming and owning her power and I witness A LOT of that in the work that I do with my clients. Today, I want to share a bit of that magic with you. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I sit down with an amazing woman and current client of mine, Claire Bergman, to talk about a few things she has learned by committing to her own healing journey. Body image, identity, restoration, and recreation are just a few of the topics we explore together. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed facilitating it.

I am a HUGE fan of mindset work and I deeply believe that it plays a significant role in what you do and what you don’t do. That being said, there are things other than our thoughts that can influence how we feel emotionally. Hello, hormones! In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I talk about how our biochemistry can influence our mindset AND how our mindset can mess with our chemistry.

Vague thinking creates vague action. If you want to show up for yourself in a powerful way, getting clear on compelling reasons for doing so is an absolute MUST.

I have worked with a lot of women over the years who had the very best intentions to show up for themselves, but when it came time for the actual showing up part? Well… They didn’t. Breaking promises you make to yourself can become a habit. The good news? Habits can be changed. If you are currently in the habit of negotiating your way out of the work you have called yourself to do, this podcast episode is for you.

Habits are your brain’s energy saving mechanism. When you repeat a pattern often enough, your brain develops a strong neural pathway so you can execute the pattern without having to think. Pretty awesome, right? Well, until it’s not. There are patterns you are repeating every day that aren’t really serving the life you said you wanted to live. And when the brain memorizes those patterns, well… you stay stuck! In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I share the 5 habits I seem to coach clients on most often to help them improve their health and unstick their life. Have a listen. I hope it helps you move your life to higher ground.

There are a lot of promises you could make to yourself in dedication to up-leveling your health and your life, but some promises are more powerful than others. In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I invite you to expand the promises you are making to yourself so you can “stay the course” with the things that truly nourish your body, mind, and soul.

Structure helps us live our lives in alignment with what we say we want. Spontaneity allows for creativity, adventure, and receptivity to what life has to offer us. The human brain often clings to one while neglecting the other, but we benefit from having both in our life. In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I invite you to explore what might need to shift for you to find the sweet spot between the two.

It is bound to happen. You are going to have a day, probably many, along the path to moving your life to higher ground where self-doubt creeps in and you convince yourself that you aren’t making progress. And, in that moment… I hope you will extend yourself the grace of pausing and asking yourself the questions I suggest in this podcast:) You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-296/ **** Looking for more support?

If you are struggling to reach your goals, listen up. There is nothing wrong with you but… your approach to goals? That just might need an upgrade. I have fallen in love with the process of setting and pursuing goals in the past few years and NOT for the reasons you might think.

I am not the same person I was 10 years ago. I bet you aren’t either. Life changes us. We learn, we grow and, with a willingness to keep fighting the good fight, we become more robust versions of our former selves. This podcast has been no different. I started this podcast 7 years ago because I was frustrated that “women’s health” was being crammed into a tiny little conversation of diet and exercise. Today I continue this podcast because I don’t just want to encourage women to think about health in a more expansive way, I want to encourage them to think about their life in a more expansive way. It was time for a reintroduction:) You can listen here: https://graceandgrit.com/podcast-293 **** It's time to make MIDLIFE Magic.

The time, energy, and other precious resources lost to NOT making decisions in your life can be massive and I don’t know anyone who can afford to lose these types of resources. Learning to make decisions faster and with more confidence can quite literally change your life. That’s the conversation we are having on this week’s episode of the Grace & Grit podcast.

Making a commitment to show up for yourself in a new way can feel exciting at first, but as the weeks pass by and novelty starts to fade, staying faithful to your commitment can start to feel hard. And… A lot of that hardness is self-induced. Which is great news because it means you have a lot of control over the difficulty you face with any commitment that you make. Your commitments need commitments:) This is a practice I teach my students to ensure that they stay the course with more consistency and ease. In this episode, I break this concept down for you and share some of the commitments I encourage my own community members to make in dedication to their own process. Have a listen.

The benefits of strength training regularly are many, especially for the midlife woman. And there are a lot of reasons why you may have never built a practice of it or simply strayed from a practice you once had. In this episode, I remind you of why strength training is so valuable to the human body and how to establish (or reestablish) a practice of it so you can start reaping all those benefits.

​There is so much value in taking a few minutes each morning to align yourself with the version of you that you want most fully expressed in the world. I am a big believer that how you start your day is a big indicator of how the rest of your day will roll. In this episode, we explore the immense benefits of being intentional about how you greet the day and how you can start designing a morning routine that gives you a much greater chance of showing up with grace and ease no matter what the day throws you.

This past month inside of my Rumble & Rise membership community I taught an in-depth class all about mending our relationship with sugar. More specifically, how to regulate blood sugar. And… As a bonus to the masterclass that I taught, I invited my dear friend and nutritionist extraordinaire, Mary Miller Brooks, in to have a conversion with me. The conversation was so rich, I decided to share it with the Grace & Grit community. In this interview, Mary & I discuss: What blood sugar is, The consequences of dysregulated blood sugar, Lifestyle factors that influence blood sugar, Ways to measure blood sugar, … and so much more! If you are interested in better understanding blood sugar regulation give this a listen (better yet… come join us inside the Rumble & Rise community).
