In this episode of our "Game Changers" podcast, host Sophie Brazell-Ng explores the power of creativity at work with two distinguished guests — Sarah Partridge, founder and director of The Change Academy, and Rob Cannon, a coach, consultant, and author of ‘Aha! A User's Guide To Creativity'. This episode seeks to unravel the essence of creativity within the workplace and its profound impact on business resilience and innovation. The conversation begins with a deep exploration of the fundamental definitions of creativity, juxtaposed with innovation, highlighting how creativity sparks novel ideas while innovation transforms these ideas into reality. Sarah and Rob stress the increasing importance of fostering a creative workplace culture, especially in the volatile and uncertain modern business environment, citing the need for resilience and adaptability. Listeners are also introduced to practical challenges and strategies for harnessing creativity at work. The guests emphasise the role of leaders in modelling creative behaviours, establishing psychological safety, and encouraging experimentation to cultivate a vibrant creative culture. Additionally, the dialogue touches on the contemporary relevance of creativity in the context of Generative AI, discussing its potential to both constrain and elevate human creativity. This insightful episode concludes with key takeaways to inspire and empower listeners to embrace their innate creative capacities and implement practices that promote creativity and innovation in their professional lives.

So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

Craving a break from your routines? Discover why that might actually be sabotaging your happiness…as well as your progress.Molly Watts returns to the Change Academy to help me unravel the counterintuitive link between structure and relaxation. Learn how to craft routines that boost mental and physical well-being, make your time off more enjoyable, and ease the transition back into your normal schedule.Key Takeaways- It's important to challenge our assumptions about what "freedom" really means in our lives. True freedom often comes from embracing structure, not abandoning it. - When it comes to improved mental and physical well-being, the consistency of our routines matters more than optimizing them.- Building awareness of how routine disruptions affect us can help us make better choices.- Structure and routine are not the opposite of freedom, but the scaffolding that makes freedom possible. With practice, we can learn to find freedom within structure, leading to greater life satisfaction and achievement of our goals.Mentioned- Alcohol Minimalist Podcast with Molly Watts- Weighless Program for sustainable weight management Interested in having Monica present at your next live or virtual event?

Why is it sometimes so darned hard to just do the things that we KNOW will make us healthier, happier and more effective in our jobs and lives?Behavioral activation offers us a framework for understanding and responding to that familiar situation of not wanting to do the thing that we know will actually move us forward.Joining me on the show today is Dr. Bethy Campbell, a clinical psychologist, teacher, and coach who regularly stops by the Change Academy to help us make sense of our own brains.Four Ways We Get Stuck (and How to Get Unstuck)Overcoping (aka doubling down):: Excessive or overly intense efforts to manage stress or negative emotions. What to do: Set realistic goals, prioritize, and establish boundariesAvoidance (aka procrastination): Staying away from situations, activities, or thoughts that are distressing. What to do: Break the task or behavior into small stepsWithdrawal (aka isolating): Staying away from people and activities that you previously enjoyed; refusing to ask for help or support. What to do: Actively seek out social interactions and engaging activitiesUnintentionality (aka numbing): Lack of awareness or conscious control over behaviors: engaging in mindless activity that may not be that rewarding. What to do: Set limits on mindless activities, create structured routinesMentioned- Change Academy #115: How to transform difficult emotions into powerful insights- Change Academy #11: The Attention Intention Action cycle Interested in having Monica present at your next live or virtual event?

Behavioral economics has given us a lot of insights into how we can influence our own and other's behavior. But the approach has some serious limitations, especially when applied to promoting health behaviors.Joining me on the podcast is Michelle Segar, a frequent guest here on the Change Academy. Michelle is an NIH-funded researcher at the University of Michigan. She's also a best-selling author and health coach whose work focuses on fostering behavior change that can survive the complexity and unpredictability of the real world.TakeawaysTake some time on a regular basis to reflect on how your personal values, beliefs, and motivations align with your desired behavioral changes (and vice versa!)Acknowledge emotional and psychological issues that may present barriers to change. Consider seeking support from a mental health professional, especially if you face challenges like depression, anxiety, or past trauma.Take a look at your social and physical environment and think about how these factors impact your behavior. Consider where you might find supportive communities or how altering your environment might encourage positive habits.Consider getting involved with community initiatives or advocacy groups that are working to address broader societal issues that impact our ability to choose healthier behaviors. For example, groups advocating to make our cities and neighborhoods more walkable or bike-friendly, or organizing mobile farmer's markets, or upgrading local recreational facilities.

Over the years, I have worked with a lot of people on various aspects of behavior change–mostly having to do with health behaviors. I have witnessed and celebrated some amazing breakthroughs and successes.But I have also seen people stumble and struggle. Regularly. Something happens and they fall back into old habits or patterns that they'd successfully moved away from.It's disappointing but it's not a tragedy. Because this is just part of the change process. What I do find tragic–and unnecessary–is when these lapses cause people to people give up entirely.Today, we're going to talk about how to survive these inevitable episodes and get yourself back in the game more quickly.Key TakeawaysSetbacks are a natural part of the change process and do not negate previous progress.Refrain from attaching a negative story to a lapse, as it can lead to further setbacks.Approach setbacks with curiosity and self-compassion; seek to understand the underlying causes. Rebound from setbacks by learning from them and redirecting energy back towards the goal.A supportive community can provide reflection, encouragement, and valuable insightsMentioned in this EpisodePermission giving thoughts (Change Academy episode)Weighless program ★ Support this podcast ★
Is there something in your life that's been driving you crazy for a while? Some situation at work that you find yourself venting to your spouse about every night at dinner? Or maybe a recurring conflict with your partner or your kids that never seems to be adequately resolved? Do you find yourself ruminating over a problematic situation every time you have a moment alone in the car?In this episode, Dr. Bethy Campbell and I are sharing a 4-step process that can help you exit that complaint loop and actually move toward positive change. Bethy is a clinical psychologist, a marriage and family therapist.The technique that we're talking about today is taken from her book on Helping Skills, a book that would be a great resource if you are in a situation where you're frequently called upon to provide guidance and emotional support.But this absolutely an approach that can (and should) apply to your own knotty situations.Key TakeawaysComplaining has its place. When done constructively, it can help us acknowledge and process pent-up feelings, and encourage self-awareness and self-compassion. Repetitive, non-constructive complaining–in addition to wearing out our friends and loved ones patience–increases our stress and hinders problem-solving. Reorienting the language we use to talk about the problem can help us see more possibilities for resolution or change. If you don't have a trusted partner to help you reflect, journaling or recording voice memos can help you spot and reframe unhelpful language.

Kunnen we “gewoon” verduurzamen? Groene groei?Of is er een diepere verandering nodig in ons zelfbeeld en wereldbeeld?Daar spreek ik over met Manu Busschots, oprichter van KlimaatGesprekken en de Deep Change Academy.Daarnaast praten we over meesterschap, een verschuiving van ego naar eco in midlife, overspannen zijn, klimaatpsychologie en Manu's fascinatie over de discrepantie tussen wat mensen denken en doen.Manu is coach en oprichter van De Ondersteen, zijn coachingspraktijk voor coaching op loopbaanvraagstukken en leiderschap.In 2016 richtte hij KlimaatGesprekken erbij op. Met klimaatgesprekken draaien ze alle principes waarom we maar niet in actie komen helemaal om, en geven ze mensen dmv gesprekken en positieve psychologie handvatten bij het starten en versnellen van hun verduurzaming.Intussen zijn bij klimaatGesprekken honderden vrijwilligers actief en wonnen ze in 2022 de Duurzame Dinsdagprijs.In 2020 richtte Manu de Deep Change Academy op om professionals ín de duurzaamheid samen te brengen en te trainen om meer impact te maken. Zijn boek daarover komt in april uit.Ik hou erg van hoe grondig Manu zijn werk benaderd. En mooi hoe zijn kijk of verduurzamen met elke schakel in zijn pad completer is geworden.Hij verwoordt heel helder wat ik ook voel; die diepere verandering in ons zijn, onze kijk en tegelijk onze systemen, die nodig is om echt een duurzame wereld op deze planeet te creëren.Show Notes met 20 lessenManu BusschotsDe OndersteenKlimaatGesprekkenDeep Change AcademyHet boek Van Duurzaamheid naar Deep Change - Handvatten voor moed, zelfzorg en meer impact maken (via link alle info en pre-order optie voor het boek, itt wat we in de aflevering zeggen, zelfs al vanaf maart te verkrijgen!!)Krijg de beste inzichten uit de reizen van deze ondernemers wekelijks in je inbox?Mijn boekenkast met favoriete boeken van mij en van de gasten.Mail me (tijmen@studiogeorge.nl) over de aflevering. Vind ik leuk.LESSENMijn vader vond geld vies. Van die visie ben ik later afgekomen. Zonder geld is er niks te investeren in een duurzame wereld.“Ik ben altijd gefascineerd door de discrepantie tussen wat we weten en wat we doen.”“Op het moment dat ik iets weet of voel dan is het voor mij heel moeilijk om aan de kant te blijven staan.” Ik wil dan graag iets bijdragen.Ik kan ‘nee' zeggen, omdat ik zo duidelijk de ‘ja' op anderen dingen voel. En doordat ik door schade en schande wijs ben geworden.Ik ben bijna gevaarlijk optimistisch als je kijkt naar de ondernemersrisico's die ik heb genomen.“Mijn eerste 20 jaar ben ik opgevoed door anderen, daarna ben ik 20-30 jaar bezig geweest met mijn heropvoeding. Worden wie ik wil zijn.”Mijn drive is verschoven van mezelf blijven ontwikkelen en verbeteren, naar hetgeen ik geleerd heb inzetten voor m'n omgeving. “Ik ben van ego-ontwikkeling naar eco-ontwikkeling gegaan.”Je gezin of je onderneming is een beetje als je eigen koninkrijkje bouwen. Een plek die je neerzet waar alles wat je geleerd hebt en jouw waardensysteem gelden.Het product kan wel onderscheidend zijn, maar het verschil moet wel dat verschil zijn wat de klant zoekt. De term ‘mannencoach' werkte niet. Mannen willen niet per se door een man gecoacht worden en vrouwen voelden zich niet aangesproken door deze naam.Hoe persoonlijker je iets maakt, hoe universeler het wordt. Iedereen is onzeker en zal wat herkennen in je verhaal.Er is een fysieke limiet aan wat je lichaam aankan, ook als je je werk heel erg leuk vindt.Overspannenheid is het voorstadium van een burnout.Het succes van de klimaatgesprekken zit hem in de erkenning van de menselijke aard en het aanwakkeren van intrinsieke motivatie.Weet heel goed wat je levenslust geeft. Dan wordt werk leuk. Ik heb er 10 jaar naar gezocht.Denk in ecosystemen en ga waar de interesse ligt. Trek aan levende paarden, niet de dode.Ik ben van nature toch een trainer en ondernemer, en de organisatie Klimaatgesprekken had juist uitbouwen en stabiliteit nodig.Hoe moreel is het als we wel alles verduurzaamd hebben, maar er nog steeds een grote ongelijkheid is? En andersom ook, krijg je wel iedereen mee in het verduurzamen, wanneer er zoveel ongelijkheid is.Ik heb moeite met het begrip duurzaamheid. Het wordt vaak gekaapt voor greenwashing en staat voor mij niet gelijk aan deep change. En regeneratief staat vooral voor eco, daar mist het sociale aspect.Simpelweg alle energiebronnen vervangen is slechts symptoombestrijding. Er is een grotere verandering nodig in onze relatie met de natuur en elkaar. Deep Change is een soort bescheidenheid in je denken en je relatie met elkaar.Ondernemers zouden de consument meer als burger kunnen benaderen om zo bij te dragen aan een duurzamere wereld.LinksHerenboeren

If you've ever taken an introductory psychology class or done some reading on human behavior and development, you've probably stumbled across the Transtheoretical Model, better known as the Stages of Change. It offers some insights into how behavior change happens, why it sometimes doesn't (or seems like it doesn't) and how we can better support behavior change efforts–both our own and those of people around us. But there are some nuances to this that I think deserve a little more exploration and who better to do that with than clinical psychologist and friend of the podcast, Dr. Bethy Campbell?We have also created an assessment for you to get a read on where you are in relationship to any change you are working on or contemplating, along with a playlist of Change Academy episodes targeting that particular stage of change. Key Takeaways- By aligning our helping strategies with the helpee's readiness, we enhance the effectiveness of our support,- The stages of change are not linear. It's normal to move back and forth as you progress through your behavior change journey.- Before a change is ever expressed in someone's actions, there's actually a lot of change that has taken place. - Change is a complex process and may involve being at several different stages of change simultaneously.MentionedLifeRAFT Model , by Dr. Elizabeth CampbellAttention Attention Action Cycle (Change Academy episode #11)Assessment: How ready are you? ★ Support this podcast ★
On today's episode of the Strong Jon Fitness Podcast, we're joined by Dr Karin Nordin. Karin is a loving dog mom, funfetti flavor super-fan, and self-help book encyclopedia… and she also happens to be a PhD expert in health behavior change and published mindset theory researcher. After graduating with her doctorate, Karin had a striking realization: The typical self-help and productivity approaches of the personal development industry were shockingly inconsistent with the actual research on change. That inconsistency became the fuel for her business Body Brain Alliance, where she's on a mission to teach compassion-first change techniques that help dedicated self-improvers become their 2.0 selves. As part of that mission, Body Brain Alliance provides programs for change enthusiasts, as well as high-level education on curriculum design and coaching practices for impact-first entrepreneurs. To make it simple: We teach people to change, and we teach coaches how to teach people to change Here's what we got into in the interview: How Karin got started with behaviour change What people get wrong with behaviour change Setting and changing expectations Behaviour change for busy people who get overwhelmed with life And so much more!

Earlier this month, I sat down with Kelly Howard of the Fit is Freedom podcast. You may remember Kelly from a Change Academy episode on how incorporating more fun and adventure can help you be more consistent about your fitness practice. Kelly invited me back to the Fit is Freedom podcast to share some tips with her listeners on how to enjoy the upcoming the holiday season without throwing all of our healthy habits and progress under the bus. I thought you would be interested in hearing this conversation as well. So, with Kelly's permission, I'm sharing that episode here with you. I share a couple of specific strategies that I find useful at this time of year…one is a mindset shift. The other is straight up tactical. We also talk a bit about the 30 Day nutrition upgrade that's coming up on November 8th—because that program is part of my answer to the question of how to stay on track even with all the disruption and opportunities to indulge that come with the holidays. If you haven't yet registered for the 30 Day Nutrition Upgrade, you can do that at changeacademhypodcast.com/upgrade (or just click on the link in the show notes).

On this episode of the Fit is Freedom Podcast, I am re-joined by the amazing Monica Reinagel to share a new and exciting fitness approach to the impending holiday season! Join us as we share our plan to approach this season in a way that allows us to enjoy it and indulge in all of the fun and treats without overdoing it! Join our private Facebook Group! We've all heard of the Sunday scaries. It's that little bit of dread and stress that you feel preparing for the week ahead. But have you heard of the holiday scaries? Well, maybe it's because I just made it up! In all seriousness, so many of us get the holiday scaries when we start to worry about the stress of all the food and drink to come. The overindulgence of the season makes so many of us feel like we have to overcompensate when January hits. We feel this pressure to do all of these New Year's resolutions because we've gone way overboard from the first sight of Halloween candy to the final holiday cookie. Get The fitness consistency book that will change your life! All About Monica Monica is a trained nutritionist, author, and host of two amazing podcasts (Nutrition Diva and Change Academy) who dedicates her life to helping and coaching others to lead healthier lives.

What is it? The program is a 30-day program that focuses on progress and accountability. There is a group element that comes with special access to a Facebook group and special Zoom meetings for support with others participating.. You also have access to a special tool (Monica's App) that allows you to keep track of your choices without feeling completely bogged down, offering just enough structure to hold on to your healthy habits! What is the main goal? The main goal of this program is to bring awareness to your choices during this thirty-day time period in hopes of continuing it through the holidays. It offers support and a touch of accountability in a way that is user-friendly. How will it work? There will be an initial Zoom meeting for a 30-day kickoff! After the kickoff, participants will utilize the App to learn their health “grade” based on their choices throughout this time, aspiring for a particular average instead of having to count every single calorie. Participants will also frequent the Facebook group to share their struggles and successes, learning from each other along the journey. Why? There are so many reasons why someone would want to join in on this adventure! First and foremost, it will help you stay accountable heading into the holidays. Secondly, surrounding yourself with a community of others who are aspiring for the same goal is a great motivator! Lastly, participating will help you appreciate your choices and learn that there's a big difference between indulgence and overindulgence. The goal is to learn your limits ahead of this season so that you can truly enjoy them guilt-free! Schedule a FREE 15 minute discovery call with Kelly here!
Today on Far From Perfect I am talking with Karin Nordin, who is a Behavior Change Expert. She has her PhD and is CEO of Body Brain Alliance. If you're like me you might recognize her from her work at Precision Nutrition. Karin's work focuses on two things, Helping people approach self help without self hate and helping people close the gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it. This is done by science! She talks to us about how your brain has no distinction between a small task and a HUGE one. We talk about how self help is divided into two polar categories; action focused and how to tap into your inner goddess. She talks to us about how to connect these two sides. We discuss Interbody brain alliance, time management(and what that really means). We also talk about Cognitive Flexibility and her Tips to boost productivity. We even dabble in ADHD. And wait for it...Committing to doing less!!! This is such an amazing conversation that you won't want to miss. Karin offers: Change Academy(which is a DIY), Alliance Coaching (1:1), Meaningful Mornings, and Compassionate Calendar.

If you've been listening to the Change Academy for a while, you'll remember Molly Watts from several previous episodes. But if you're newer to the Academy, let me quickly tell you who she is. Molly is the host of the top-rated Alcohol Minimalist podcast and author of the book Breaking the Bottle Legacy. Molly's work focuses on helping people create a more peaceful and sustainable relationship with alcohol. And the approach that Molly takes is very consonant with our philosophy here on the Change Academy. Molly has graciously agreed to let us share an excerpt from her podcast in which she shares the three things she had to stop doing in order to finally change her drinking habits. You can substitute just about any unwanted or problematic behavior or habit for “drinking” and Molly's advice would be just as valuable. She's also generously offered a free digital copy of her book to any Change Academy listeners who would like one. (See below). As you listen, think about how Molly's insights about changing her drinking behavior might apply to a behavioral pattern or habit loop that you've struggled to change.Key Takeaways We often make change harder than it needs to be by setting unrealistic expectations and then beating ourselves up for failing. Failure is not proof that you cannot succeed…unless you choose to make it that. Small consistent effort ultimately gets us to our goals sooner than big dramatic gestures that fizzle out. Self-judgment is toxic to the process of growth and change. Instead we need to approach ourselves and our behavior with curiosity and compassion. If the behavior we are trying to change is one that we are using as a coping mechanism, we're going to need to address whatever it is that are using it to cope with.

All of us occasionally struggle with negative or overwhelming emotional reactions. But few of us have been taught to handle difficult feelings effectively. In this episode, Dr. Bethy Campbell returns to the Change Academy to share techniques for working with our most challenging emotions–enabling us to handle stressful situations with greater resilience and to access healthier emotional responses. Dr. Bethy Campbell is a clinical psychologist, a marriage and family therapist, with special expertise and certification in career development counseling. During her academic career, she also pioneered a curriculum on Helping Skills, a process that people who are not trained therapists can safely use to support others (or help themselves) when dealing with psychologically or emotionally challenging situations.Key Takeaways Our emotions can be a powerful source of information, but we need to learn how to recognize and interpret the signals they are sending. Although our feelings are neither good or bad, the way we express those emotions may be healthy or unhealthy. Our primary emotional responses may be buried under several layers of secondary emotions that need to be explored first. Simply labeling and rating the intensity of our emotions is often enough to dissipate their intensity. The goal is not to eliminate emotions but to foster a healthier relationship with them, leading to improved self-understanding and emotional well-being. Lab Experiment(adapted from Helping Skills Training for Nonprofessional Counselors)Consider how primary and secondary emotions and emotional signals apply to your own life. Can you think of a time when secondary emotions clouded your awareness and expression of your primary emotions? Write down your recollections of that time, highlighting primary and secondary emotions. What do you believe your emotions were signaling and motivating you to do? How might talking (or writing?) about these feelings help you access primary emotions and adaptive signals?

Late breaking news! Kelly is giving Change Academy listeners an electronic copy of her new book for free! Scroll down for the link to that I met Kelly Howard a few months ago, when she invited me to be a guest on her podcast. I loved the concept of her podcast, which is that fitness is not just another chore that we're supposed to do. It is a gateway to more freedom. Kelly takes that message beyond her podcast and into the real world, where she runs a company that offers hiking, biking, backpacking, and kayaking adventures, as well as fitness coaching programs to help people prepare for those adventures. In other words, fitness is not the real goal. Fun and freedom are the goals, and fitness makes those possible. It's a perfect example of something we talk about all the time here, which is how important it is to have a compelling why, and to align our goals to our larger objectives.In this conversation, you'll hear how Kelly applies those principles to the work that she does. But these insights apply just as well to any other goals that you may be working on. Takeaways: For most of the things we want to achieve, being consistent is more important than achieving mastery. The value of creating a detailed plan always has to be balanced with the flexibility that allows us to pivot when plans go awry We need to be just as intentional about rest and recovery as we are about effort Specific events can be great things to work toward.

Episode Summary Here on the Fit is Freedom Podcast, we talk a lot about fitness. We talk a lot about movement and adventure and reaching big goals. But there's one important piece to health and fitness that I thought our guest Monica Reinagel could weigh in on. That important piece to the health puzzle is nutrition. As a trained nutritionist, Monica will help answer all of our questions about food's importance. Some of the topics we'll cover include: The dangers of fad dieting Why protein is important Amazing tips for optimizing your nutrition Being mindful-ish and what that means Join our private Facebook Group! About Monica Reinagel Monica is a trained nutritionist, author, and host of two amazing podcasts (Nutrition Diva and Change Academy) who dedicates her life to helping and coaching others to lead healthier lives. Interestingly enough, before her podcast debut and her nutritionist credentials, she was also a trained opera singer! How cool! Monica Reinagel website Monica Reinagel Facebook Page Monica Reinagel Instagram Change Academy Podcast Nutrition Diva Podcast Tips for Nutrition The awesome thing about Monica's approach to nutrition is that it is simple. It's upfront and easy to follow. It's realistic, and it isn't lost in all of the “eat this, not this” rules that society leads us to believe are the right way to diet. Among many things discussed, Monica shares some incredible tips including... Don't Do an Overhaul It's much easier to take small parts of your life and adjust then take your life and transplant it into a completely different diet and lifestyle. It's just not sustainable. Start small. Look for little areas of improvement and work with what you already know. Be Flexible Life is going to happen! You're going to get invited to a girl's night out. You're going to forget to pack your meal-prepped lunch. It's okay. If you have a flexible mindset and know that things are going to come up, you are much less likely to just throw in the towel. Coming Soon! The fitness consistency book that will change your life! Get updates here. Be Forgiving Understand that you (and your nutritional decisions) don't have to be perfect. Knowing that you will make mistakes along the way will keep you moving forward. Let go of that “all or nothing” attitude, and understand that life happens sometimes and that's okay. Have Fun We can't just eat for our health. We need to have fun! Find things that you enjoy and that you look forward to! Be Mindful-ish Adopting a healthy eating lifestyle is all about getting rid of the “shoulds.” Yes, it's great to be mindful about what you're eating, but take everything in stride. Our bodies, circumstances, and environments are constantly changing. It's more important to discover a process for finding what works best for us so that we can adjust along the way.

But the solutions that are being promoted are not necessarily what we need in order to solve the problem of burnout.

Coach Debbie started this podcast with co-host Brock Armstrong for a year after Jon Smith left the show (FIT FAT FAST) and now Debbie continues to follow her passion with her own podcast show! Big Topics we dive into: BG Superhuman Coach Conference Red Flags in our own health and lifestyles Biohacking experiments, N=1 Lessons Learned Ironman elite athletes, marathons, 50k trail run to today The Goldilocks Effects on nutrition, carbs, fat, fasting, and more to find your SWEET SPOT What has happened in the past 10-15 years in the low carb endurance athlete world? Debbie Potts brings back her co-host Brock Armstrong to review fueling, training and performance tips from the past ten years. We dive into... How has low carb fueling and training evolved in the past 15 years? What have you changed in your own nutritional program? How did your views change? What do we know about matching fueling with our training and fasting? Brocks pervious life bio... Brock Armstrong has one goal: to help people move more of their body, more often in more and more interesting and satisfying ways. Brock is a fitness/movement coach who has more than a decade of experience coaching people of all levels to increase their ability to move through this world with ease and confidence. After being sidelined from a career as a professional ballet dancer, a brief bout as a desk jockey, and a solid attempt at endurance sports, Brock now embraces a more functional and behavioural approach to fitness and movement. This comes from his background in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and his extensive experience in the health and wellness industry working with many leading personal trainers, coaches, gurus, and wellness consultants including: Mark Sisson (Primal Blueprint), Katy Bowman (Nutritious Movement), Monica Reinagel (Nutrition Diva), Brad Kearns (author), Dave Asprey (Bulletproof), Ben Greenfield (Kion), Abel James (Fat-Burning Man) and Mark Divine (Unbeatable Mind). Brock's previous podcast is called Second Wind Fitness and you can find it anywhere you listen to audio. Brock is also writer and podcaster for Scientific American and co-hosts the podcast Change Academy with Monica Reinagel. He has appeared as a guest and co-host on many health and wellness podcasts, such as: Fat-Burning Man, Ben Greenfield Fitness, Primal Blueprint, Primal Endurance, B.Rad Podcast, Happy Brain, Endurance Planet, and The Whole Athlete. Are you an ambitious, driven, high charging athlete who is struggling to get the desired results even when doing all the "right" things? Are you struggling with fat loss, poor recovery and inflammation? Did you know Debbie started FIT FAT FAST podcast in 2011 with co-host John Smith then Brock Armstrong? She then changed the name (as we lost the hosting site and had to start over) to SHUT THE FRONT DOOR... then realized that wasn't such a good name then called the show THE WHOLE ATHLETIC to go with her THE WHOLESTIC METHOD coaching program but then got a letter from a company with a similar name ... so we changed the name to THE LOW CARB ATHLETE podcast!

We've been on Spring Break for the last few weeks but we haven't spent the time lounging on a beach. We've been doing some big thinking about the future of the Change Academy and we have some big news to share: We are redefining our respective roles at the Change Academy. Having co-created and co-hosted the show for the past 3 years, Brock is now stepping away from the mic but not going far…just a few steps away, into the production booth. In Brock's final episode as co-host, we share more about the process of deciding to make a big change and why deciding to end a project doesn't mean it wasn't successful. We also share more about what isn't changing and what you can expect in future episodes of the Change Academy.
Many of us tend to shit on external accountability. We're like, “Oh, I want to hold myself accountable. I want to be internally accountable.” Self-accountability is absolutely a thing that we need as humans, but there is nothing wrong with bringing in external accountability to your life when you need that type of support. In the past couple episodes, I talked a lot about my new routine, why I implemented it, and what I changed, and now, I want to talk about my plan for keeping it going, and how I have stayed diligent and dedicated to this routine thus far. In this episode, I'll be talking about three types of external accountability that I'm utilizing in order to stick with this routine: community accountability, financial accountability, and emotional accountability. If you're looking for a place to have a little bit more community accountability and be around other people who are engaging in change, join us in Change Academy. This month, our workshop is all about how to create an effective workout routine, and I hope to see you in there!

In today's episode, we'll be talking about three habit stacks that I've integrated within my new routine and why I made those choices. I'll share three examples of effective habit stacks that I have integrated within my routine: meditating after my workout at the gym, walking my dog when I get home from WeWork, and drinking half a bottle of water before coffee in the morning. If you want to know my perspective on habit stacks, and if you want more in-depth information about how to create them correctly, join us in Change Academy! In this month's workshop inside of Change Academy, we're focusing on how to become a frequent exerciser, and so, as part of the workshop, we are going to cover effective habit stack formation.

People who exercise and move on a regular basis tend to have lower stress levels and tend to cope with the stress that they are experiencing a lot better. The routine that I'll be sharing with you about today is a shift that I made from working out three-ish times per week to going to the gym six days per week. Exercise is one of the best ways to ease yourself out of go mode and to give yourself a place to redirect all of that energy that would kind of just spiral around in your brain like an angsty hamster if you didn't have somewhere to put it. In today's episode, I'll be talking about my own workout resistance, the benefits of pairing structure with flexibility, and why I might encourage you to consider playing around with what alternate workout routines might look like for you. Our Change Academy theme this month is about how to become a frequent exerciser. So, if you want to learn how to get to the gym on a regular basis, and if you want to learn the tools that I am using, that I have used in the past three weeks to go from a spotty three days at the gym to a consistent six days at the gym every week, join us Change Academy this month! Trigger Warning: If you are a person who's really struggling with working out too much, over-exercising, not taking rest days, please go ahead and skip this episode as it may be triggering for you.

I had reached a point where I was waking up in the morning and opening Instagram before I was even consciously aware of what I was doing. I realized that the more I looked at Instagram and got lost in my online world, the less present I was in my life. In today's episode, we are going to talk about the first change that I made in order to cultivate a routine that was more focused on resilience and stress management: I went on a 30-day social media detox. In the episode, I'll talk about why I quit social media for 30 days as a way to free up resources, challenge a limiting belief, and force presence. We'll discuss a pattern I often see in clients, how social media pulls us away from our own lives, and the importance of facing the music of our own mental monologues. Join us in Change Academy if you want to learn more about the benefits that I experienced during this process!

In the first eight weeks of this year, everything felt hard, my routine was off, and I just felt like my life was not in alignment with my values at all. I sat myself down and asked, “Karin, what is going on here?” The realization that I came to was that I was really stressed out. As Body Brain Alliance grew, I realized I wasn't really doing a lot in my routine in order to cultivate resilience to support myself through those moments where shit was hitting the fan. This episode is the first in a series that will come out over the next couple of weeks. I'll be going in depth on several changes that I made, why I made them, and I'll give you some tips and tricks as well for how you might want to change things up on your end. In today's episode, I'll share about the moment I realized I was stressed and wasn't coping well, the importance of adding more support to your life as you add more to your plate, and the reason behind why I have no desire to reduce my stress but instead want to increase my coping. Also, if you want to learn the tools and techniques that will actually help change your life, Join us in Change Academy!

Today's episode is going to be a little bit of a me @ me. It might sound like a rant, but I want to remind you that I am absolutely in this position alongside of you. I'll be talking about how scrolling does not count as resting. We'll be covering how my personal instinct when I'm tired is to sit on the couch and scroll, how scrolling is actually an energy drain, and why we're ineffective at managing our own stress. Today is the very last day that you can get access to the Stress Management Workshop in Change Academy! We hired researchers to come in and help us with the economy slides, and it's going to be so valuable. If you haven't joined Change Academy and if you feel like you could do a better job of managing stress and managing your stressors, I highly recommend you jump in before today is over so that you get access to that workshop!

In today's episode, we'll be talking about the lessons I learned from the hardest summer of my life. We'll focus on a really stressful situation I've been through and the lessons that I learned, and I think this will be relatable for some of you who are in that season of your life right now. We'll also talk through why stress can be beneficial for us and can help us strengthen our mental skills. I'll also be covering all of the research behind this inside of our Change Academy workshop because there's a lot of research that says having a growth mindset towards stress and interpreting it as a good thing, something that you can improve upon, something that can benefit you, that is actually going to have a massive impact on, not only your experience in those moments, but also your improvement afterwards. I'm also going to be administering a live stress intervention inside of the workshop. Join us in Change Academy to get access to the workshop!

Summary: Resistance is what we feel when we don't want to do a task. It's that sense of feeling stuck. It's kind of like a numb feeling but also an angry feeling at the same time. It's that general “ugh” that you get in your body when there's something that needs to be done and you don't want to do it. In today's episode, we'll be talking about what it means to arrive earlier than resistance, why our brains tend to dislike uncertainty, and the two ways that I've learned to apply arriving earlier than my resistance to my daily life. Also, keep an ear out at the end of the episode for my challenge to you this week! If you're interested in learning more about the psychological underpinnings of resistance, join us in Change Academy! Change Academy is where I give way more concrete tips, way more concrete resources, and way more concrete strategies.

Summary: In today's episode, we'll be talking about circadian rhythms and mental health and the importance of getting the amount of sleep you need to function, nourishment from food, and energy from the sun. As always, I'll start by sharing a story, then we'll discuss my personal experience with how sleeping in affects my mental health, getting stuck in a funk cycle and pulling myself out of it, and how our hormonal and biological patterns can influence our abilities to adopt behavior change. PS: When it comes to the actual science behind circadian rhythms, I'm not an expert, and I don't want you to treat me as an expert.

Summary: In today's episode, we'll be talking about how unhelpful it is to hold ourselves to such high standards all of the time. We are humans, and life is 50/50. Some days our brains might want to be in the angry mode, and some days our brains feel stuck in a funk that feels impossible to get out of. I hope this episode serves as a reminder that those days are a part of life. We'll discuss the question I was asked on the Back of the Pack retreat: “How do you do life?”, we'll dive further into how life is 50/50, and we'll touch on just how we show our bodies love and acceptance, we can show our brains love and acceptance as well.

Summary: In today's episode, we'll be talking about routines. More specifically, I want to talk about this weird push-pull that we often experience with routines. On one hand, we want them, we gravitate towards them, our brains tell us that routines are safe, and a lot of times we might even struggle with creating new routines. But on the other hand, we sometimes struggle to break or move away from routines that aren't serving us. If you want to discover your own morning routine that serves you and you don't know what you might need, I would definitely recommend checking out my Meaningful Mornings course. This whole course is about building your routine that is actually based on what you want to do and not just sort of these arbitrary standards of what you should do. Key Takeaways: 1:06 - Distancing Myself from Social Media 2:21 - This Routine is No Longer Serving Me? 3:33 - Where Are You Clinging to a Routine/Habit/Ritual That Isn't Serving You? 4:11 - Meaningful Mornings Resources: Meaningful Mornings Course: https://bodybrainalliance.com/meaningful-mornings/ Join Change Academy Pro: https://bodybrainalliance.thrivecart.com/academypro/ Alliance Coaching Application: www.bodybrainalliance.com/applynow Alliance Coaching: https://bodybrainalliance.com/coaching/ Change Academy: https://bodybrainalliance.com/change-academy/ Follow Karin on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/karinnordinphd Transcripts Available at: https://bodybrainalliance.com/blog/
Summary: In today's episode, we'll be talking about these three shitty aspects of scaling a business: you'll disappoint more people, you'll no longer be able to make quick changes, and your problems will scale alongside your business. I'll also share the one single piece of advice I would have given to myself before I scaled BBA. This episode is an invitation for you to just check in with yourself because the industry is gonna tell you that scaling is the natural next step for everybody, and maybe it's not the natural next step for you. Since I know I have a lot of coaches in my audience, I'm making an effort to record a few business-focused episodes for those who are interested in what it's like to be a CEO.

This episode is such a good conversation with Monica Reinagel, a coach who is an absolute pro at nutrition and lifestyle behavior change. If you don't take pages and pages and pages of notes from this one, well, go back and replay it again from the beginning and take notes. You'll put a lot of what Monica shares into practice with your clients - right away. Monica is a licensed board-certified nutritionist with a Master's of Science and Human Nutrition. She's the host of the Change Academy and Nutrition Diva Podcasts. She writes for medium.com, Scientific American, Food and Nutrition Magazine, and she's a frequent health expert guest on shows like The Today Show, CBS News, and NPRs Morning Edition. During the conversation, Monica dives into the idea that people know what to do but they don't know how to make it happen, and how she expanded her nutrition coaching to behavior change. Monica also shares with us the 5 Key Principals that a coach can use to ensure their clients are ready and able to achieve their goals. Monica gives some great examples of how we can make our coaching more effective and less complex. She also emphasizes how us coaches need to balance the do's with the don'ts, keeping our clients away from focusing on perfection, and focusing on the means - not the extremes. She is a boss.

Summary: Is your environment noisy and distracting when you're trying to get work done? Are you working 12 straight hours with no breaks for nourishing food and hydration? These things might be directly impacting your ability to focus. In today's episode, we'll be talking about why focus is not a skill and rather how it's a condition of the brain. We'll discuss the three things that impact your ability to focus. When we can understand that focus is a condition of the brain (it is a brain space we can be in), then we can control the factors that might influence us or help us click into that brain space. Caveat: I am not an expert on ADHD, and I do not discuss ADHD in my content. If you have ADHD, though it might still apply to you, it also might work a little differently for you.

Summary: This episode is inspired by two things: the science behind either sharing your goals or keeping them to yourself, and whether goals become easier with more visibility on social media. In the episode, we'll discuss both the benefits and the drawbacks of telling other people about your goals and the benefits and drawbacks of keeping your goals to yourself. When choosing whether or not to keep your goal private or share it publicly, I really hope that you consider how much of the sharing is for yourself and how much of the sharing is for the approval or permission of others. I hope this episode is helpful and brings you new insight into whether or not you want to share your goals publicly!

Summary: Our brains are creatures of habit, and they were designed to keep us alive. They like following patterns because when we follow patterns that we've had previously, it reduces the energy that we have to spend on thinking. So, when you're in a pattern or when you've been doing something a certain way, your brain doesn't like to deviate from that way. In today's episode, I'll be sharing a bit about my goal of eating 2,023 servings of plants in 2023 and how I'm making the shift from not planning out what I eat ahead of time, to actually planning out what I eat ahead of time and sticking with it. I'll also go into how our rebellious brains are creatures of routines, how they can get in our way when it comes to our goals, and how their desire for habitual patterns directly affects our ability to plan. Let me know how this is shifting your thinking or is helpful for you!

Summary: I've been wanting to talk to you about a question that might feel a little bit like a poke or might be a little bit sensitive for some people. The question is are you really advanced enough to worry about that? A lot of the time, business owners get wrapped up in all of the complexity of funnels and sales pages SEO, and are you advanced enough for those things to truly make a difference? In today's episode, we'll touch on this very question and how to best use that question to discern when to leave or take education given to us about our goals. We'll also discuss how to check your ego so that you can embrace your beginner status which will lead you to simplify, grow, change, and evolve to get closer to where you want to be.

There are many (and I do mean many) excuses our brains come up with to not move more but in this episode, I will tackle the most common excuses we all give to avoid exercise - and give my best rebuttal to each. Try using these on your less active friends or, yes, even on yourself when your inner lazy bones tries to fool you into hitting the couch instead of hitting the bricks. --Find the Change Academy podcast at https://changeacademypodcast.com/Get the B.Rad Whey Protein at http://brockarmstrong.com/bradwhey
Summary: In today's episode, we are going to have a little mini lesson on boundaries. A part of holding yourself accountable is holding your boundaries. What I think we sometimes don't realize is that boundaries are mental and social constructs which means we have to speak them into existence otherwise they're just imaginary. I'll tell you about a situation involving my own boundaries that really pissed me off. We're gonna talk about why it pissed me off, what I realized about the situation, and how I took responsibility. We help a lot of clients with boundaries in Alliance Coaching, and our topic of the month for Change Academy is self-accountability. As a reminder, if you want to grab our self-accountability workshop, this is the last day to get it in Change Academy!

People in the special operations community often find themselves learning to be human swiss army knives. They do intensive courses in anything from second languages to advanced trauma medicine, where their ability to succeed depends on their ability to manage their time, attention, and energy and study and learn effectively. For instance, we did an episode recently on how to be successful in the Special Forces medic course, known as 18D, and a consistent theme was the importance of good study habits. But nobody teaches that. People either figure it out or fail. And lots of them fail. We want to give people a framework that they can use to understand how to establish strong time management and study habits so that they can learn better and faster during challenging courses.To do that, we talked to Dr. Karin Nordin, a Ph.D. in health behavior change, a published researcher on mindset theory, and a curriculum writer for Precision Nutrition. Dr. Nordin is the founder and CEO of her own business, Body Brain Alliance, which provides behavior change coaching for individuals and curriculum design education for business owners. After teaching at the college level for years and then transitioning into the online coaching industry, she quickly realized that the evidence-based practices for both course design and behavior change were not being taught in an industry that desperately needed them. Now, she's on a mission to create courses that help people change and to teach other coaches how to do the same thing. You can go to www.bodybrainalliance.com to learn about some of Dr. Nordin's work we discussed on this call, like her Change Academy course or her coaching programs.
Today's episode is all about self-accountability. Self-accountability is something that a lot of us have really quirky mindsets about. More and more people have come to me in coaching and told me that they, themselves, are obligers. As a researcher, I have noticed that obliger is almost always a code word for a fixed mindset about the skill of self-accountability. In this episode, we'll dive deeper into your belief about self-accountability, what it means to be an obliger, and how to move towards a growth mindset for the chance to truly develop self-accountability. PS: In the Change Academy workshop this month, I'll be talking exactly about how I started to view myself, not as an obliger, but as someone who could learn how to hold myself accountable and the process of how we learn to hold ourselves accountable.
Happy New Year! If you're anything like me, this first week of the year you are feeling light, optimistic, and motivated. We're all typically really good at holding these new beliefs that we've never been able to hold before about our new 2023 selves, but one of the things that we forget to do is capture those beliefs and learn from what's happening when something is going really well. In today's episode we'll discuss capturing this sense of optimism and why it's important to discover the cause behind the effect of your success. Also, if you are having this amazing week but you're worried about holding yourself accountable for the rest of the year, our Change Academy topic for the month of January is self-accountability. In the Change Academy workshop, we'll be talking about what self-accountability really is, exactly how to develop it, and tips, tools, and strategies to make it feel empowering instead of something that you're lacking or a skill you've never developed.
With Thanksgiving just a week away, we thought it was a good time to touch base with Monica Reinagel, the Nutrition Diva. She can set us straight about some myths concerning weight gain and weight loss, and she can offer some tips for not inflicting too much damage to the waistline at Thanksgiving and throughout the holidays. Monica Reinagel is a licensed nutritionist and the author of six books, including Nutrition Diva's Secrets for a Healthy Diet. She's the host of the Nutrition Over Easy website, and the creator of the weekly Nutrition Diva podcast, which has been one of Apple Podcasts/iTunes' most highly ranked health and fitness podcasts since it debuted in 2008. She also co-hosts a podcast called Change Academy, with fitness and movement coach Brock Armstrong. Monica Reinagel joins us on Zoom, and she welcomes your questions and comments as well...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week on the podcast, I'm welcoming Monica Reinagel back onto the show to discuss a recent recommendation I saw for women who are drinking "higher levels" of alcohol (more than seven standard drinks per week) that said that taking 400 mcg of folic acid was recommended to help off-set increased risk of breast cancer. We're breaking down the facts about folic acid and discussing whether or not this recommendation is based on good science and if folic acid can really help us mitigate increased risk of breast cancer from alcohol. Monica sheds light on where this recommendation comes from and why adding this supplement needs to be considered cautiously. You can find more of Monica's work on www.nutritionovereasy.com. and at www.weighless.life She is also the host of the Change Academy podcast with Brock Armstrong.

Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA: Healthy men under 65: No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week. Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older: No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week. One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink. Abstinence from alcohol Abstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past. Benefits of “low-risk” drinking Following these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. If you' are unsure about whether or not you have alcohol use disorder, please visit the NIAAA for more information.

You're listening to the Change Academy podcast, so we assume that you have some sort of aspirations or goals. Things about your health or your habits or your lifestyle that you'd like to change. A vision for a future that's a little different–and a little better–than the reality of today. But if you've been listening for a while, and not much has changed, you may be suffering from consumption. And we don't mean the old-fashioned disease that all the heroines of 19th-century opera die of. Our challenge for each and every listener of this podcast is to send us an email this week. Tell us three things:1) what you most want to create in your life that is not yet a reality.2) how long you've wanted this3) What action you are taking this week to move toward itWe will respond to every email we get.Don't forget to find out more about the upcoming Weighless sessions at Weighless.life
Dr. Heisz joins me on this episode to talk about her research which examines the effects of physical activity on brain function to promote mental health and cognition in young adults, older adults and individuals with Alzheimer's disease. Her book: Move The Body, Heal The Mind: Overcome Anxiety, Depression, and Dementia and Improve Focus, Creativity, and Sleep, focuses on overcoming inertia; using exercise to help fight addictions; how we can improve our memory with fitness even as we age; and, importantly, how exercise can help us sleep better, improve focus, and be more creative.Don't forget to check out Brock's other podcast called Change Academy where he and Monica Reinagel teach you how to build sustainable habits and a lifestyle that you love.

Weight loss is clearly one of the most common reasons individuals engage in an exercise program. Like it or not, success or failure, the American public tries, tries, and tries again to lose weight and keep it off. While the statistics on weight loss are not great, and the statistics on maintenance are even less encouraging, there is an evidence-based path to safe and effective weight loss. It is this path that we'll discuss in episode 43 of the Wellness Paradox Podcast with licensed nutritionist, author, and behavior change coach Monica Reinagel. With years of experience in weight loss interventions, Monica brings a unique and pragmatic perspective to this discussion. Our wide-ranging conversation will cover an overarching philosophy on weight loss interventions as well as practical interventional strategies to effectively facilitate weight loss and the maintenance of that loss. Importantly, our conversation will discuss the integrated role of nutrition and exercise for significant weight loss, and how nutrition and exercise professionals can work together to help clients achieve their weight loss goals. This is a very thought-provoking discussion on how fitness professionals can approach weight loss goals with their clients. Given there will be no shortage of clients looking to lose weight, this is very high mileage topic to investigate.

If you've ever owned a motor vehicle (or a fancy bike), you know that routine maintenance (getting the oil changed, checking your tire pressure, monitoring the brake pads, etc.), can keep your vehicle running well and on the road for a long time. Every so often, however, a more comprehensive tune-up is recommended. In the same way, healthy habits like eating well, staying active, managing stress, and so on, go a long way toward keeping your body and life running smoothly But every once in a while, our lives can benefit from a more thorough going over.So on the Change Academy podcast, just for fun, we've organized our tuneup into 10 parts, each corresponding to a different part of a car, from the onboard computer, through the navigation system, alignment, brakes, all the way through to the filters, shock absorbers and THE ENGINE (which is what I am about to play for you). Whether or not you currently have any warning lights flashing on the dashboard of your life, I hope you will enjoy this dive into how to maintain your engine as you put on more and more miles.

Episode 432; Finding your WHY as an athlete With Brock Armstrong In this episode, I am always smiling and happy when I talk to my longtime podcast and coach friend Brock Armstrong. Brock and I first connected ten years ago in the Superhuman Coach program with Ben Greenfield. Fast forward ten years later, we both continue to grow, transform and evolve into better versions of ourselves. Catch my video interview with Brock Armstrong here Finding your WHY as an athlete and enhancing your health and performance even as you age is vital. Aging comes with different changes, and it's okay to shift your goal and focus in life to find what works for you. However, for most of us, age is a number with a lot of baggage, most notably, the excuse to let yourself off the hook and put off improving your life. Some things become less important along the way but give yourself permission to shift and stop using age as an excuse for things that you can control. This is the only way to achieve true change and live for your future self. The choices you make today will either help you transform into the best version of yourself tomorrow or vice versa. Join the conversation with Brock Armstrong as he shares how you can find your whys and strategize your choices to align with your vision for your life. Brock is a podcaster, writer, movement coach (Armstrong Coaching), weight loss coach (Weighless Life), and CBT Practitioner.

The reason we are sharing with you now is that our next group is going to be starting on October 8th 2021. Enrollment only opens a couple of times a year so if this is something that you have thought about doing, we didn't want you to miss it!

One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink. Abstinence from alcohol Abstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past. Benefits of “low-risk” drinking Following these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. This week on the podcast I'm delighted to share with you a conversation on Alcohol and Nutrition with Monica Reinagel. Monica is licensed nutritionist with a Master's of Science in Human Nutrition. She also went to culinary school. But long before all of that, she went to music school and studied to be an opera singer–which is what she spent the first half of her professional life doing. (Hence her alter-ego, The Nutrition Diva). Monica and I discuss: * How alcohol affects metabolism * How alcohol can contribute to nutritonal deficiencies. * We talk about how alcohol impacts health and how people are often unaware of their drinking habits. * Decreasing alcohol might help you feel motivated to improve your diet and nutrition. * How drinking more than they want to might be causing you to make worse nutrition choices. * How creating better choices in nutrition and health can help you become more motivated to drink less. * We talk about the science of how alcohol interacts with your liver and why eating when you drink is important. * We talk about low-calorie drinks and why they might not be a great option. * We talk about planning ahead for alcohol and better food choices and what happens when you don't want to follow the plan. You can connect with Monica on both the Nutrition Diva podcast or the Change Academy. Monica's Coaching program is here: Weighless Life Monica's Nutrition Blog
Welcome back to BeREAL! This week, Diana and Ednesha are joined by nutritionist Monica Reinagel to discuss all things about dietary nutrition. Monica Reinagel, MS, LD/N, CNS is a board-certified, licensed nutritionist and a professionally trained chef. Widely regarded as one of the most authoritative voices in nutrition, Monica's expert advice is regularly featured on television, radio, on the web, and in the nation's leading newspapers and magazines. She's the creator of the Nutrition Diva podcast, which has been in the Top 10 of health and nutrition podcasts since its debut in 2008. She is also co-host of the Change Academy podcast, which focuses on the art and science of behavior change. Monica begins the episode by discussing how she got into the field of dietary nutrition. She initially was training to be an opera singer, but after discovering a love for nutritional science, she changed her career path. She talks about her podcast (The Nutrition Diva Podcast) and how it is her primary platform to spread information on dietary nutrition. She also touches on the fact that there are loads of bad information out there about nutrition and dieting and how she hopes to debunk a lot of false beliefs people have about food and health. Monica continues by explaining her work. She says that her work doesn't revolve around telling people what foods are good for them, that information is already well known and easily googled. Instead, she focuses on turning that knowledge about nutrition into action. She recognizes that trying something new introduces the possibility of failure. She looks to minimize the fear of failing that holds many people back from changing their diet. Instead, she tries to show that even though new diets might not always work out, you can always start again. Ednesha hops in to talk about her experience with a nutritionist and how through that journey the way she viewed food and dieting changed drastically. After a short break, the women return to discuss Monica's work as a chef. Although she did attend culinary school, she hasn't worked in a restaurant as a chef. Instead, she works with restaurants to make their menus more nutritional. Monica finished off the episode by talking a bit more about her two podcasts (The Nutrition Diva and The Change Academy). She tells listeners where they can find her and how they can start on their journey of changing their maladaptive eating habits. Thank you so much for tuning into BeREAL this week. Be on the lookout for an all new episode next Tuesday. In the meantime, make sure to check out last week's episode about love trauma and childhood trauma.

Welcome to episode #601 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast - Episode #601 - Host: Mitch Joel. The Heath Brothers (Chip and Dan) write some of the most compelling business books that that world has ever read. To this day, Made To Stick remains a staple and masterclass in how a brand can (and should) tell a better story. From the massive success of that book to Switch (all about change) and then Decisive (all about how to make better choices)... their books are just so powerful. Most recently, I devoured their latest business book, The Power of Moments. Why do certain experiences have specific impact on our lives? How is it that an event that took place when we were a child could be a hardwired value set that we carry with us to this day? Is it all just chance and luck (nature) or is their an opportunity for us to create moments like this (nurture)? I had the pleasure of discussing this and much more with Dan Heath. Along with writing brilliant business books with his brother, Dan is also a Senior Fellow at Duke University's CASE center, which supports social entrepreneurs. At CASE, he founded the Change Academy, a program designed to boost the impact of social sector leaders. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 51:47. Hello from beautiful Montreal.
