Growing up in a beach town in California, Erin Wathen was always an active kid, competed on sports teams in high school, and taught aerobics in college. She has run 1/2 marathons, finished a Tough Mudder and many 6 hour Spin rides for Charity. A graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) and a Food Addiction Counselor (INFACT), Erin is also a Certified Spinning® Instructor (STAR 3), Vinyasa Yoga instructor (200 Hour) and Classical Pilates instructor. Even with all of her knowledge and exercise, she still was not at peace with her own body. Erin found nutrition to be the missing piece of the puzzle, as she was always on a diet and yet never at her goal weight. Through a lot of trial and error, she found her last diet. The last diet became her food plan and the basis of her book “Why Can’t I Stick to My Diet? : How To End The Food Drama”. Erin's philosophy simply put; Health isn’t a number on the scale or how often we exercise, but our lives as whole. Together we will work on solutions that fit i

Logan "Goody Beats" Delgado has achieved true transformation in multiple areas of his life. He has lost pounds, gained confidence, and built a lifestyle of his own design all the while being a family man. In this episode, you will learn more about Logan's story of what (and surprisingly who) motivated him to transform his life, create a business around social media, and share his journey with the world of how the ketogenic diet serves his goals. You can learn from and follow this keto dude on Instagram @goodybeats or join the over 90,000 subscribers on YouTube. A ketogenic diet in particular benefits from more macronutrients from fat. Supplementing with omega-3 fats, like those found in OMAX Health, have been shown to boost heart health, reduce risk of coronary heart disease, and can help our bodies maintain normal blood triglyceride levels. They also have been clinically proven to boost neurotransmitter activity, while supporting memory, focus, concentration, and energy. Make sure to grab your "OMAX 3" throu

Founder of the popular Hormones Balance online community, holistic nutrition coach MagdalenaWszelaki (on Instagram @hormonebalance) knows the value of cooking for hormone balance firsthand. Developing hyperthyroidism and then Hashimoto's, adrenal fatigue and estrogen dominance propelled her to leave a high-pressured advertising career and develop a new way of eating that would repair and keep her hormones working smoothly. Now symptom free, Magdalena shares her practical, proven knowledge so others may benefit. In Cooking for Hormone Balance, she draws on current research to explain the essential role food plays in keeping our hormones in harmony and offers easy, flavorful recipes to help us eat our way to good health. She also offers clear, concise action plans for what to remove and add to our daily diet to regain hormonal balance, including guides for specific conditions.

Meat, meat, meat, and more meat! Dr. Shawn "The Carnivore" Baker, M.D. is here to share with us his experience about being on a carnivore diet for over three years. He is an orthopedic surgeon, Air Force veteran, semi-pro rugby player, triathlete, Highland Games Masters world champion, and so much more. The main takeaway I hope we all have is that our dietary approach should always be done with doing our research on the foods we put into our bodies, take note of how we feel (internally and externally), and create a sense of awareness of how our diet can positively or negatively alter our health and performance goals.

Sal Di Stefano (on Instagram @mindpumpsal), one of the hosts of the incredible Mind Pump podcast, has decades of experience he is bringing to the table in this interview all about the many benefits and dangers to properly conducting a fast.

More about today's expert guestl... Sal was 14 years old when he touched his first weight and from that moment he was hooked. Growing up asthmatic, frequently sick and painfully skinny, Sal saw weightlifting as a way to change his body and his self-image.

The winner will be announced on IG on Wednesday, May 16 2018.  The benefits of a having a tribe are undeniable. Those of us with strong social circles are living longer, happier, and healthier lives compared to those who lack connections. Today, we live in an über-connected era, in which anyone is able to make thousands of friends with the swipe of a finger—yet the way we are connecting leaves us feeling mistrustful, jealous, disempowered, fearful, misunderstood, and ultimately defeated. We are often left believing that success is a solo, isolating endeavor or, worse, that it is reserved only for the ruthless, physically blessed, or self-absorbed. Inspired by Lori’s own journey through loss, loneliness, and disconnection and her fears of remaining an outsider and of never reaching her dreams, A Tribe Called Bliss details how Lori shed
