Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)The irreplaceable human element of divorce coaching remains vital in an increasingly AI-driven world, with experienced coaches providing emotional intelligence and authentic connection that technology cannot replicate. We explore why artificial intelligence tools can supplement but never substitute the nuanced support, personalized guidance, and trauma-informed approaches that human coaches offer during life's most challenging transitions.• AI tools can help with administrative tasks but cannot read subtle emotional cues or provide genuine human connection• Experienced coaches draw from personal and professional knowledge to offer nuanced advice tailored to individual values and situations• "Compassionate boundaries" balance validation with accountability when emotions cloud judgment• Real-time adaptation allows coaches to pivot instantly when clients face unexpected developments• Trauma-informed approaches help coaches recognize signs of abuse that AI might miss• The coaching relationship itself models healthy communication and boundary-setting for future relationships• Technology works best as a supplement rather than a replacement for human coachingJoin us on July 23rd when Anne Wintemute from AmieeSays will join us to explore AI-driven tools for those in unhealthy relationships.

Want to get in touch? Send Claire a message!Welcome to episode ONE HUNDRED of The Eat for Endurance Podcast! Woohoo! I'm excited to share my interview with Melissa Azzaro, RDN LD aka The Hormone Dietitian about how to get better sleep. Melissa and I talked for over 90 minutes about a TON of different factors that impact sleep, including nutrients, eating patterns, supplements, lifestyle behaviors, and more.Sleep is a huge and complicated topic, and sleep problems are often linked back to numerous things. Here are some of the things we highlighted:Why hormone imbalances, including during perimenopause and times of low energy availability, lead to sleep issuesWhat types of dietary habits and patterns impact sleep quality and quantityHow eating enough, and including enough carbs, is so important for sleepWhy drinking alcohol is doing you no favors in the sleep departmentThe effects of caffeine on sleep and differences among indiviudals Herbal and nutrient supplements that may improve sleepHow exercise can affect sleep, especially relating to timingOther lifestyle factors that impact sleep (e.g. light, temperature, etc)And so much more!When thinking about how to get better sleep, your best bet is to start with some basic, foundational things. Listen to the episode for some recs and ideas!Just a heads up - this conversation has large sections that are mostly focused on women, whether it's talking about hormonal shifts and symptoms during perimenopause or relating to PCOS, or about other female-specific challenges. This is partly because Melissa is a women's health dietitian!But don't worry, we cover many things that are relevant to everyone too.

Want to get in touch? Send Claire a message!In Episode 98 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, I'm taking advantage of a short break between guests to bring you a solo episode all about recovery nutrition for endurance athletes. Many of my clients are training for some exciting events this Fall, and I'm getting lots of questions about what to eat after exercise. Even if you're not training for a specific event or doing long hours-long training sessions, recovery nutrition still is extremely important. In this episode, I'm going to teach you about the main puzzle pieces that impact recovery (nutrition, sleep, rest, life stress), specific nutrition and hydration guidelines to promote recovery and overall health, and how to apply these guidelines to real life as meals and snacks.If you are more of a visual learner, I covered this topic in a recent blog post on my website. There you'll find much of the same content as well as plenty of helpful graphics. I hope you find this episode helpful and as always, I welcome your questions, feedback and topic requests!Links & Announcements:Relevant blog posts: “What to eat after a long run” and “How much do I need to eat as an endurance athlete?”Watch this episode on my YouTube page Check out my free and for-purchase offeringsSign up for my email list to download my FREE fueling before exercise guideFill out a new client inquiry form if you're interested in 1:1 nutrition coachingJoin my Patreon community to support the pod while getting free merch, special discounts, and other perksPlease subscribe or follow the show and rate/review it wherever you listenGet in touch at claire@eatforendurance.comMusic Credit: Joseph McDadeDisclaimer – all information provided is for educational and entertainment purposes only and is in no way meant to replace individual medical and nutrition recommendationsSupport the showThanks for listening!

Organic, Processed, and GMO foods with Brooke Czarnecki, RDN LD

Want to get in touch? Send Claire a message!In Episode 96 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, sports dietitian Brooke Czarnecki of Intentful Nutrition joins me on the pod to help me answer a listener question. This person asked to learn more about organic foods as a runner, and also mentioned that she tries to minimize processed foods surrounding her runs. This inspired me to do an episode on organic versus conventional foods and “processed” versus “unprocessed” foods for athletes. I added a quick GMO chat at the end because it's relevant to this discussion. There's so much confusion, fear-mongering, and extremism when it comes to making nutrition decisions, especially regarding organic, “processed” (in quotes because it's not clearly defined) and GMO foods. For example, there is a widespread belief that if something is labeled organic or non-GMO, it must be nutritionally superior. But that's not true. In reality, this conversation is nuanced and complicated, and cannot be approached with the black-and-white way of thinking that so many people in the health and wellness space love to adopt.  Brooke and I did our best to hit the main points, though there are some gaps in what we cover (especially on GMO foods). We define some key terms, differentiate between opinion and science (while throwing plenty of our own opinions in the mix), and talk about how all of this applies to you, as an athlete, in your everyday eating and performance nutrition.Our overarching message is that the right decision is the one that works best for you. If you want to buy organic, minimally processed, non-GMO foods and products, go for it. AND... There's s no conclusive evidence that organic food is healthier than conventional food. Highly processed foods, including sports nutrition products, have a place in an overall balanced diet, if you want to include them (most endurance athletes need to). Current evidence does not universally support GMO foods as harmful. YOU get to choose how you want to eat. We're just here to tell you that you don't HAVE to buy organic and swear off all “processed” non-GMO foods to be a healthy, worthy human and athlete. Links & Announcements:Brooke's website and InstagramWatch this episode on my YouTube page Check out my free and for-purchase offeringsSign up for my email list to download my FREE fueling before exercise guideFill out a new client inquiry form if you're interested in 1:1 nutrition coachingJoin my Patreon community to support the pod while getting free merch, special discounts, and other perksPlease subscribe or follow the show and rate/review it wherever you listenGet in touch at claire@eatforendurance.com.Music Credit: Joseph McDadeDisclaimer – all information provided is for educational and entertainment purposes only and is in no way meant to replace individual medical and nutrition recommendationsSupport the Show.Thanks for listening!

Want to get in touch? Send Claire a message!Welcome to Episode 95 of The Eat for Endurance Podcast! I have an Athlete Nutrition Profile for you today, featuring ultrarunner and coach Jes Woods. You may already be familiar with Jes, especially if you live in NYC. She coaches thousands of athletes through Nike Run Club, Brooklyn Track Club, and Brooklyn Trail Club, and has also worked with boutique fitness studios including Mile High Run Club and Flywheel. Jes also is a fierce athlete herself. She competed as a triple jumper for nearly a decade, and then discovered distance running after college while working in broadcasting at NBC. She ultimately embraced the ultra running community, started coaching, and turned fitness into a full-time career. We had a great discussion about her nutrition and how that has changed over time as she transitioned into distance running. We explore how she fuels herself, from the marathon to the 200 mile distance, as well as what she observes and teaches her own athletes. Jes also shares that she hates to cook, and tells us how she keeps herself well-nourished to support her health and very active lifestyle. I hope you enjoy this episode! And if you do, please remember to share it with your friends, give it a 5-star rating and write a review wherever you listen to your podcasts.
