Podcasts about faster way

Amazon may be testing a major review change, with some shoppers seeing only 10 reviews unless they apply for more. Amazon clarifies its multiple account policy. Plus, it's Episode 500 of the AM/PM Podcast! We're back with another episode of the Weekly Buzz with Helium 10's VP of Education and Strategy, Bradley Sutton. Every week, we cover the latest breaking news in the Amazon, TikTok Shop, Walmart, and E-commerce space, talk about Helium 10's newest features, and provide a training tip for the week for serious sellers of any level. In this episode, we're switching things up with a fresh new look, and it's the perfect time because this is Episode 500 of the AM/PM Podcast! Join us for a quick trip down memory lane as we celebrate nearly 10 years of the AM/PM Podcast and keep Manny Coats' classic “How cool is that? Pretty cool, I think.” spirit alive. Amazon reviews might be acting weird again, and it could be more than just the usual “dog page” error some shoppers have seen for months. In this week's first story, Bradley shares a new test showing up on certain customer accounts where you can only view 10 reviews and then have to “apply” to see more, with Amazon promising an email response within five business days. If this expands, it could push more shoppers toward Rufus-style review summaries rather than reading reviews directly, and it could significantly impact how sellers and tools analyze review data. Especially after Amazon's crackdown that removed Helium 10's Review Insights. The good news: the Helium 10 team is working on a new, fully “Amazon-compliant” version that still provides high-quality review insights, and Bradley asks viewers to share in the comments if they're seeing the same review limits and whether they think it could roll out more widely.

This stage of life, our fabulous fifties, sixties and beyond, is prime travel season. We are empty nesters. We have a little more freedom. We maybe a little more disposable income. We are retired or it's on the horizon. And with March here next week, spring break travel season is officially here. And, if you don't already know this about me…we own a house in a little beach community so we travel to it A LOT.  So here's the question I hear all the time: “How do you travel so much and still stay on track?” Today's Friday Extra Credit episode gives you a GPS-style travel guide — how to travel without losing your way on your fat loss and healthy weight maintenance journey.

Sometimes I get questions about registration…Do I sign up for the regular FASTer Way to Fat Loss class, or do I want the VIP membership? And I totally understand the confusion. A lot of programs have a basic entry option and then a VIP version with bells and whistles layered on top. That's not the case with our VIP program. So in today's episode I want to walk you through exactly what VIP membership with the FASTer Way is, how it works, and what you can expect — so you can register confidently and understand the value your coach brings to both options. Because at age 50 and beyond, we aren't after quick fixes and fast regains. We are looking for healthy lifestyle tweaks to get to and stay at a healthy weight goal long term.  Think of this episode as an orientation day at school. We're going to walk the campus together and I'll show you what life looks like inside VIP. Who knows?

In Part 2 of this conversation, we're clarifying an important distinction: chronic undereating that leads to biological binge responses is not the same as biblical gluttony.Gluttony is a heart issue — replacing our need for God with food.But many women are not struggling because they love food too much.They're struggling because they've been under-fueling their bodies for years.In this episode, Rachel unpacks:The difference between gluttony and biological survival responsesWhat chronic calorie restriction does to hormones and metabolismWhy restriction often backfires for fat lossWhat reverse dieting is and how it worksWhy slowly increasing calories can restore metabolic trustHow maintenance phases actually support long-term fat lossWhy reverse dieting can be a worshipful act of stewardshipIf you've believed the lie that you must restrict forever to see results, this episode will reframe everything.What You'll LearnWhy gluttony and biological binge cycles are not the same thingHow leptin, ghrelin, cortisol, and thyroid hormones respond to chronic dietingSigns your metabolism may be suppressedWhy eating more strategically can reduce binge urgesHow reverse dieting increases metabolic capacityWhy maintenance is not failure — it's foundationalHow to cycle between maintenance and deficit wiselyScripture Referenced1 Corinthians 6:19–20“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you… You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.”Ready for Structure?If this episode resonated with you, Rachel's next FASTer Way round is open.

Today's lesson is a BIG one. It starts with a history lesson of the previous 2 decades of governmental guidelines on nutrition because, for the first time, America's dietary guidelines finally reflect what research and America's obesity problem have been reflecting all along:  whole foods are what we should be eating for health and weight maintenance AND ultra processed foods with lots of grains, sugars, and carbs, have been keeping us sick and fat.  It's not just about calories. It's not about willpower.  The problem has been the food recommendations — and especially highly processed foods — all along. Stay tuned to be educated and motivated on what you should be eating for health and fat loss!  Join my next FASTer Way to Fat Loss® class for women 50+ here: https://www.fasterwaycoach.com/AMYBRYAN  Join my Jan. 16-20 Cortisol Reset week for only $20 here: https://fasterwaycoach.com/cortisol-reset?aid=AMYBRYAN

Today you're going to hear a real conversation with two women who decided to do this journey together. Not perfectly. Not obsessively. But together. They talk about: Losing weight and inches of fat The accountability that comes from having a friend alongside you And maybe most importantly… how their "why" shifted Because this wasn't about “getting skinny.” It was about: Getting stronger Feeling confident in their bodies Showing up for themselves in midlife And actually enjoying the process instead of white-knuckling it So take a listen — not just for the results they're seeing, but for the mindset shift, the laughter, and the reminder that fat loss doesn't have to be lonely or miserable.

If you've spent any time on social media, you've probably heard this phrase: “High cortisol causes belly fat.” And maybe you've wondered: Is cortisol my problem? Is my stress ruining my metabolism? Am I doing everything right and still stuck because my cortisol is too high? Today we're going to clear this up —Because here's the good news right up front: If you're following the FASTer Way lifestyle, you are already doing many things that help regulate cortisol. This episode teaches what cortisol actually is, when it becomes a problem, and what you can do—very practically—to support your body.

If you're a woman over 50 struggling with your weight and you've ever said—or thought— “Menopause broke my body,” or “Something must be wrong with me,” this episode is for you. Because here's the truth no one explained to us: Menopause doesn't need to be fixed. It needs to be supported. Today, we're going to connect the dots between common menopause symptoms— like stubborn weight gain, low energy, poor sleep, brain fog, cravings, mood swings— and the nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle habits that can dramatically improve them. Not extreme. Not miserable. And definitely not “eat less and move more.” Join me in my next FASTer Way to Fat Loss® 21-Day RESET here:  https://www.fasterwaycoach.com/AMYBRYAN 

Today's episode is the first of a new rhythm:

Welcome to the very first episode of The WELL Podcast — a space to refill, reset, and reconnect with the version of you that feels grounded, energized, and at peace. As we step into a brand-new year, it's easy to get swept up in goal-setting culture… the hustle, the pressure, the "do more, be more, fix yourself" mentality. But what if your goals didn't drain you this year? What if they actually supported your wellness, restored your peace, and helped you feel more like YOU? In today's episode, we're talking about how to dream big and create meaningful goals — without abandoning your body, your faith, or your mental and emotional health in the process. You'll learn how to shift from striving into intention, from burnout into alignment, and from overwhelm into grounded clarity. This isn't about chasing achievement — it's about becoming well. • Why traditional goal-setting often leads to burnout • The difference between busy goals and soul-aligned goals • How to anchor your dreams in faith, identity, and wellness • How your nervous system, rhythms, and energy matter in goal-setting • A simple framework for creating goals that feel supportive, not stressful • What it looks like to build dreams that nourish you — not drain you We'll also slow down together for a few reflection moments so you can reconnect with what truly matters to you this season.   THE FIRST STEP IS ALWAYS HONORING YOUR BODY:  Join me in the Faster Way to Fat Loss program You get: ⭐️30 minute workous ⭐️Macro Friendly meal plans and trackers ⭐️Fasting Tracker ⭐️Water Tracker ⭐️Motivation ⭐️Accountability

In this episode of the FASTer Way Podcast, you'll get to know Lori Ebanietti, our newest FASTer Way Pro Trainer—and proof that strength, energy, and confidence don't have an expiration date. At 58, Lori brings over 40 years of fitness experience and real-life wisdom to the conversation as she and CEO Amanda Tress dive into what actually works for women navigating perimenopause and menopause—from lifting heavy and fueling properly to sleep, stress, and hormone support. If you've ever felt like your body changed overnight, workouts stopped "working," or your energy just isn't what it used to be, this episode is for you. You'll learn how building muscle pays off for decades, why under-fueling backfires in midlife, and how the right habits (and support) can help you feel strong, clear, and capable at any age. Whether you're in your 30s and want an edge, deep in perimenopause, or fully in menopause and ready to thrive—not just survive—this conversation will leave you inspired, informed, and excited to train smarter for the long game.

You cannot live in a calorie deficit forever and keep losing fat. Not at 20. Not at 40. And definitely not at 50+. Your body is too smart. Your hormones are too influential. Your metabolism is too adaptive. And trying to white-knuckle your way through the holidays in a deficit? It's not impossible by any means but maybe not the best time.  So today, we're talking about your ENTIRE YEAR—how to use deficit, maintenance, and surplus phases intentionally to make progress without burnout.  Join my FASTer Way to Fat Loss® 21-Day RESET for women 50+ here:  https://www.fasterwaycoach.com/AMYBRYAN   

In this raw and honest episode, CEO Amanda Tress opens up about one of the hardest seasons of her life: burnout, chronic stress, insomnia, and the moment her body finally said enough.  This episode is about what happens after burnout—when clarity returns, alignment deepens, and the path forward becomes undeniable. Amanda shares how leaning into faith, prayer, and the right people brought renewed energy, focus, and confidence—and why FASTer Way is more aligned than ever with its mission. We're stepping into 2026 with vision, momentum, and belief in what's possible. Exponential growth is coming, and we're taking you with us. If you've been looking for hope, direction, or a reminder that what's ahead can be better than what's behind—this conversation will meet you right where you are and get you excited for what's next.

Today we're diving into a topic that might surprise you… because it has nothing to do with carbs, macros, or fasting.  Today is all about your gut — your microbiome — and how it plays a major role in your ability to lose fat, feel energized, and stay healthy as you age. It's a highly Googled topic and there's so much noise and conflicting information on social media.

What's the Real Cost of That Evening Glass of Wine? A Sobriety Journey with Kate VitelaKate Vitela, a registered nurse, shares her powerful journey from physical alcohol dependence to over seven years of sobriety. Her story isn't defined by a dramatic rock-bottom moment but by a gradual awakening to how daily drinking eroded her sleep, career, and relationships. Now, Kate offers a hopeful perspective on recovery through neuroplasticity—the brain's incredible ability to rewire itself and form new neural pathways. “Our brains can reorganize,” she says. “We can completely transform as human beings.” This challenges the outdated notion that addiction is a lifelong disease requiring constant management.In this candid conversation, we dive into what that evening glass of wine means for midlife women. For many, it's more than a drink—it's a rebellious act of self-care, a boundary between meeting others' needs and claiming a moment for themselves. But Kate reveals the hidden costs: even one drink disrupts REM sleep, circadian rhythm, and hormones, far beyond just calories. Host, Michele Folan, shares a personal experiment, contrasting a sleep score of 62 after bourbon with 91-94 on alcohol-free nights.Kate doesn't judge moderation but offers a bold reframe: “Alcohol is ethanol—a poison. Moderation is just microdosing poison.” She argues that midlife is the perfect time to rethink your relationship with alcohol. With greater motivation and a clearer sense of what doesn't work, midlife women are uniquely positioned to embrace change.Whether you're sober-curious, exploring moderation, or questioning alcohol's role in your life, this episode invites you to uncover what drinking is truly costing you—and what freedom could look like. Through her work with women, Kate shows that true empowerment comes from self-care practices that nourish without requiring recovery.Listen now to discover how to reclaim your power, improve your sleep, and embrace a life free from alcohol's grip.You can find Kate Vitela at https://www.instagram.com/rewiredsober/Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rewired-sober/id1781739552 or wherever you listen_________________________________________

This week's Coach Confessional is part personal health update, part huge FASTer Way announcement — and 100% worth a listen.

Haven reacts in classic Haven fashion — part skeptical, part intrigued, and totally ready to rally the team for a “colonic party.” But the big news?

When you start digging deeper instead of accepting "that's just how it is," that's when the real breakthroughs happen. These ladies are proof that there's so much more to the story.
