Ever have wicked thoughts or evil impulses? Discover the source of these wild thoughts and how to combat them.Four facts you need to knowGod has objectively defeated Satan. He has delivered us from sin's penalty and power. In the interim, we are involved in guerilla warfare with demonic forces.As believers, we have been transferred from the kingdom of darkness to the Kingdom of light with all the rights, privileges, and position a child of God entails.The spiritual battle involves a responsibility to “put on” the spiritual protection God has provided. We can resist the enemy's attempts to deceive, accuse, and cast doubt when we stand firm.The great majority of spiritual warfare need never go beyond the regular practice of living out our position in Christ by faith. Our practice of the spiritual armor protects us from Satan's attempts and minimizes any impact by the enemy.There are times however, when we must move beyond “standing firm” and ENGAGE the enemy in actual combatWhen taking significant steps of faith for spiritual growthWhen invading enemy territoryWhen exposing him for who he really isWhen we repent and make a “clean break” with the world, a long-held sin pattern, or an unholy relationshipWhen God is preparing us for a “great work” for His gloryHow to engage the enemy and win: Taking up the shield of FAITHTake the helmet of SALVATIONTake the sword of the SPIRITSummary: How to engage the enemy in spiritual warfarePrerequisite is a HEALTHY spiritual lifeUnderstand your POSITION in ChristDISCERN when demonic influence may be the causeClaim God's promises OUT LOUDTake our authority and position in Christ to COMMAND demonic forces to cease their activity and departBroadcast ResourceThe Invisible War ResourcesMessage NotesAdditional Resource MentionsThe Invisible War Small Group OfferConnect888-333-6003WebsiteChip Ingram AppInstagramFacebookTwitterPartner With UsDonate Online888-333-6003

God gave us a body to take care of and it is important to maintain that body with love and care. Especially because we are at the end of the genesis curse, there are many considerations these days to living a healthy life. It is also important from an eschatological perspective, because one day the world will ostracize those who do not obey its counterfeit system of worship — which means we must not be dependent on institutions or pharmaceutical drugs as much as possible. In this free series I go over 20 years of experience in the realm of health and wellness and discuss important strategies on how to maintain what we've been given so that you can be as healthy as possible for what's to come. * 00:00 - Introduction* 05:36 - The Adrenals* 16:45 - The Thyroid & Iodine* 38:14 - Wrap-Up This is a public episode.

Healthy Practitioner, Healthy Business: The Future of Podiatry Practice Running a podiatry clinic shouldn't come at the expense of your health, happiness, or home life.

Ultra-processed foods have become central to the way we eat and to many of the challenges we face in public health nutrition. They dominate supermarket shelves, shape population diets, and often appear as the prime suspect in rising obesity and metabolic disease rates. But beyond the label itself, what exactly makes these foods problematic? Is it their nutrient composition, their texture and palatability, the rate at which we consume them, or the broader environments that make them so accessible and appealing? The debate around ultra-processed foods sits at the intersection of metabolic science, behaviour, and policy. It raises uncomfortable questions about how food systems evolved to prioritise convenience and profit, and what it might take to meaningfully change that trajectory. In this episode, Dr. Kevin Hall joins the podcast to examine the evidence from controlled feeding studies and population research, exploring what we really know about ultra-processed foods, overeating, and how we might begin to fix the food environment.

"You can never outperform your self-image."  Reclaiming health begins with ownership. True healing happens when you stop outsourcing your well-being and start living by principles that restore your body's natural intelligence. That means breaking free from the dependency mindset built by Big Pharma, choosing single-ingredient foods over processed ones, fasting to reset your metabolism, and sleeping deeply to rebuild from within. Health is not just the absence of disease—it's the active pursuit of energy, purpose, and clarity.  Ben Azadi shares how he went from obese and depressed to a peak state of physical and mental fitness. Drawing from his book Metabolic Freedom, Ben reveals how changing your self-image rewires your biology, fasting activates your body's repair systems, and gratitude—what he calls "Vitamin G"—becomes the ultimate anti-inflammatory. His philosophy blends science and purpose to show that you can heal yourself by living in alignment with nature's design.  Ben is a bestselling author, speaker, and educator on metabolic health. Through his mentorship with Dr. Daniel Pompa and nearly two decades of experience, Ben has guided tens of thousands toward vibrant energy and longevity. His mission is clear: to make you healthy again—physically, mentally, and purposefully.  Expert action steps:  Take daily Vitamin G—gratitude rewires your brain and heals your body.  Live on purpose with your purpose—direction fuels longevity.  Cut out the noise—fill your mind with empowering information and people.  Learn more & connect:  Go to metabolicfreedombook.com to find Ben's books and free bonus materials.  Also in this episode:  Chicken Soup for the Soul by Jack Canfield, Amy Newmark and Mark Victor Hansen  Good Energy by Casey Means and Calley Means  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level.

EOS (the Entrepreneurial Operating System) gives you a clear roadmap to align people, processes, and profit — but when you combine it with the right financial systems, that's when the real transformation happens.   In this episode, Rick Benton, EOS Implementer and former multi-state business owner, joins Rocky Lalvani to unpack how EOS helps entrepreneurs simplify, scale, and create freedom. Together, they explore how visionaries can step back from the whirlwind, let go of control, and finally build a business that runs on systems — not stress.   5 Key Lessons from the Conversation:  Let Go of the Vine. Growth starts when you release control. EOS helps visionaries trust their team, delegate effectively, and stay focused on the high-value activities that drive impact. Weekly Scorecards > Monthly Panic. Measure what predicts the future, not what reports the past. Weekly scorecards with 5–15 KPIs give you 52 chances a year to course-correct instead of 12. Finance Is the Missing Gear. EOS brings clarity, but without a financial dashboard tied to gross profit and cash flow, you can hit your goals on paper and still miss in the bank account. When EOS and Profit First systems work together, growth becomes predictable and profitable. From Rock Bottom to Rock Foundation. The lessons you've learned — and the systems you've built — become the foundation you can always stand on. You're not starting over; you're building from strength. Stop Hustling, Start Delegating. Hustle culture leads to burnout. Smart owners out-delegate, not out-work. Systems and scorecards let you scale without grinding yourself or your team down.   Key Takeaway: EOS gives you the structure; Profit First systems make sure the structure actually pays. Together, they align your people, vision, and numbers so your business grows with ease — and adds another zero without adding more chaos.   About Rick Benton: Rick's entrepreneurial journey started in high school when he and a friend started an event company. Dedicated to a vision of creating the most exciting and energetic experiences, the business quickly found successes that extended far beyond the local Detroit market. Fast forward a few decades and this multi-state, award winning company provided event planning, coordination, entertainment, and AV production services for national corporate, social and educational clients. After a successful sale and exit of the business in 2018, Rick has been a teacher, a coach, and a business consultant. His superpower is his energy and passion for business, learning and growth, always challenging the existing status quo to find better solutions. He personally understands and experienced the power of EOS and how it offers freedom for entrepreneurs to break through their ceiling, clarify and achieve their vision, while improving the lives of leadership teams, employees and their families. Rick is excited to share that EOS power with you to achieve your VISION, gain TRACTION, and build a HEALTHY, cohesive, and fun-loving leadership team.   Links: EOS: https://www.eosworldwide.com/rick-benton    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rickbenton/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rick.benton/    Conclusion: Scaling isn't about doing more — it's about doing the right things in the right order, backed by clear numbers. EOS brings operational discipline. Profit First adds financial confidence. When those two worlds meet, your business becomes scalable, self-managing, and sustainably profitable.   If you're ready to connect your EOS scorecard to real profit and cash flow, schedule a Profit Assessment Call with Rocky and start turning structure into wealth.   #ProfitFirst #EOS #Entrepreneurship #BusinessGrowth #CashFlow #FractionalCFO #Scorecard #Visionary #Integrator #Delegation #Systems #FinancialFreedom #SmallBusiness #ProfitAnswerMan   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@profitanswerman Sign up to be notified when the next cohort of the Profit First Experience Course is available!

Trying to eat more without gaining weight? Wondering how much protein you actually need — or if you’ve gone overboard? And what about that burning reflux that ruins your sleep? In this week’s episode of The Nutrition Couch, dietitians Leanne Ward and Susie Burrell cut through the confusion with practical, no-BS advice that real women can use every day. Here’s what you’ll learn: The truth about “free foods” and fat loss — what dietitians really mean by low-calorie “free” foods, and how to use them to bulk up meals, feel satisfied, and enjoy more flavour without blowing your calories. Protein myths busted — how much women actually need for fat loss, hormones and muscle support, what “too much” looks like, and why overdoing protein can leave you bloated, gassy, and tired. Healthy, affordable protein swaps — the best whole-food and budget-friendly sources of protein (and why most “protein everything” snacks aren’t helping your gut or your wallet). Smarter drink choices for summer — the surprising truth about tonic water sugar, and the best low-sugar options for your next G&T or alcohol-free spritz. Reflux fixes that actually work — how to eat at night without triggering reflux, which foods make it worse, and the simple evening habits that can finally help you sleep better. If you want to eat well, feel full, and still hit your health goals — without tracking every calorie or giving up your favourite foods — this episode is your blueprint.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Pet Shop Girls Podcast, we sit down with Clayton Payne — the Pet Business Disruptor himself — to dig into the side of the industry that doesn't always get enough airtime: distribution. With nearly 20 years of experience, Clayton brings a no-fluff perspective on what it really takes for retailers, brands, and distributors to succeed together.We get real about the challenges smaller brands face getting on shelves, why understanding consumer mindsets is the starting line for success, and how retailers can sharpen their negotiation tactics without losing relationships. We also dive into evolving market trends (spoiler: cats are stealing the spotlight) and the importance of authenticity in every corner of this business.This conversation is loaded with practical advice — whether you're a retailer looking to gain an edge, a brand trying to break into distribution, or just curious about how the pet industry ecosystem really works.✨ Key TakeawaysUnderstanding consumer mindsets is non-negotiable for distribution success.Retailers shouldn't chase trends — they should lead them.Authenticity builds customer trust that lasts.Smaller brands face steep challenges with pricing and distribution access.Distributors must stress test pricing models for viability.Strong communication and relationship-building matter more than one-off deals.Brands need a clear marketing pipeline to get into — and stay in — distribution.Premium cat products are becoming a major growth category.Negotiation works best as a collaboration, not a battle.Healthy partnerships between retailers, brands, and distributors fuel mutual success.Connect with the Pet Shop Girls!Find us everywhere: https://linktr.ee/petshopgirlsConnect with Carly (House of Paws):https://www.instagram.com/houseofpawsboutiquehttps://www.tiktok.com/@houseofpawsboutiquehttps://www.facebook.com/houseofpawsboutiqueConnect with Sherry (Odyssey Pets):https://www.facebook.com/odysseypetshttps://www.instagram.com/odysseypetshttps://linktr.ee/odysseypetsdallasThe Pet Shop Girls Podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.

Empathy can be one of the most destructive forces to connection—or one of the most powerful. Without it, relationships become cold and judgmental. But too much of it, without boundaries, and we lose ourselves trying to carry everyone else's pain. So how do we find that middle ground? In this episode, Justin and Abi unpack what healthy empathy looks like, and what happens when it gets twisted into judgment or codependency. They share raw and personal stories from their own marriage—navigating chronic illness, financial stress, different upbringings, and PTSD—to show how empathy helped them heal long-standing patterns of resentment, disconnection, and pain. You'll learn the difference between cognitive and affective empathy, how boundaries make empathy safer, and why being "too empathetic" can actually be a sign of unprocessed trauma. If you've ever struggled with being too empathetic, not empathetic enough, or confused about what empathy should look like in healthy relationships, this conversation is a game-changer.

“Healthy theology affirms the spiritual realm without obsessing over it. Faith keeps us grounded when the unseen feels overwhelming.” In Daniel 10, the curtain between heaven and earth is pulled back, revealing an unseen world of spiritual activity. As Daniel receives a new vision and encounters a radiant messenger, we’re reminded that God’s purposes are unfolding even when we can’t see them. Nicole Unice explores what Scripture teaches about the spiritual realm—what’s revealed, what’s mysterious, and how believers can live anchored in confidence rather than fear. She balances two extremes: over-focusing on spiritual warfare or dismissing it altogether. The episode draws out timeless truths about prayer, unseen realities, and the sovereignty of God that will carry into Daniel 11 and 12. Main Takeaways There is an unseen realm: Both Old and New Testaments affirm that invisible realities exist (see Ephesians 6:12, Colossians 1:16, Hebrews 1:14). God hears our prayers—even when we can’t see results. The angel tells Daniel his prayer was heard immediately, though the answer was delayed by spiritual resistance (Daniel 10:12–13). Healthy theology stays balanced. We recognize the spiritual realm without obsessing over it. Faith, prayer, and Scripture keep us grounded. Revelation points to the Revealer. The focus is not on angels or visions but on the God who reveals Himself and strengthens His people. Trust closes the gap between prayer and response. Faith bridges the unseen—God’s timing and sovereignty are trustworthy even when unseen battles rage. Bible Verse References: Daniel 10:12–13 — God hears Daniel’s prayer. Ephesians 6:12 — Our struggle is not against flesh and blood. Hebrews 1:14 — Angels are ministering spirits sent to serve believers. Colossians 1:16 — All things, visible and invisible, are created through Christ. Psalm 139:16 — All our days are written in God’s book.

We all want the dream body, but almost none of us want to slow down long enough to build the base it actually requires. In today's episode, I'm sharing one of the most important lessons I've learned as both a coach and a client: you can't build a strong, sustainable body without a strong foundation.  I use the analogy of building a dream home because just like a house needs a solid foundation before the walls go up, your body needs metabolic stability and healthy habits before you layer on intense training or dieting.  Most of us try to skip this part because we're in a hurry to see results.  I get it. I used to be the impatient one who wanted the plan, the strategy, and the visible progress right away. But rushing your transformation is the fastest way to end up starting over again and again.  In this episode, I break down what the “foundation phase” actually looks like, including how we assess metabolism using SHREDS and why stabilizing sleep, hunger cues, digestion, energy, stress, and recovery is non-negotiable.  I share why this phase can feel slow and why that slow work is what makes everything that comes after actually stick. I also walk through the three phases of a healthy nutrition journey and how to know which phase you're truly ready for.  This is about building a body that can handle real life. Vacations, busy seasons, holidays, stress, and everything in between. When your foundation is strong, you don't fall apart when your routine changes. You adapt and you bounce back.  If you've been feeling frustrated with slow progress, this episode may be the reframe you needed. Take a breath — you might just be pouring the concrete.  Time Stamps: (2:57) Next Stage of Homeownership (4:34) Building The Foundation (7:27) When I First Started My Fitness Journey (12:42) The Metabolic Assessment (19:42) Building The Walls Next (20:27) Vital Spark's 3 Phases (28:02) Please Share and Review---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Episode Summary:In this timely revisited episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly dives deep into the topic of binge drinking—what it is, how it affects your brain, and most importantly, how to avoid it. In the spirit of No Binge November, Molly reflects on the broader implications of binge behavior across all areas of life, not just alcohol. She challenges long-held assumptions, shares science-backed insights, and offers both mindset shifts and practical tools to help you reduce or eliminate binge episodes.Whether you've ever thought, “I'm not a binge drinker,” or you've struggled with black-and-white thinking like, “Once I start, I can't stop,” this episode provides clarity, context, and encouragement to build a more peaceful, mindful relationship with alcohol.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why binge drinking might look different than you thinkThe scientific definition of binge drinking from the NIHHow higher ABV drinks can quietly turn moderate drinking into binge drinkingThe impact of binge drinking on your brain and behaviorMindset patterns that contribute to binge episodesTools and strategies to help you stay mindful and break the cycleKey Takeaways:Binge drinking isn't just about getting sloppy drunk—it can be more subtle, and many daily drinkers may unknowingly meet the criteria.A typical IPA may pack more alcohol than you realize, impacting your overall intake more than expected.Mindset plays a powerful role—believing "I just can't stop" can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.The goal of being an alcohol minimalist inherently means avoiding binge episodes and embracing calm, controlled drinking habits.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 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 ★

Blending a family takes grace—and so does blending your finances.When couples merge families, they're also merging priorities, habits, and sometimes, financial baggage. Ron Deal joins us today to show us that with honesty and a shared vision, what begins as a challenge can become a source of strength for blended families navigating both money and marriage.Ron Deal is a bestselling author, licensed marriage & family therapist, podcaster, and popular conference speaker who specializes in marriage enrichment and stepfamily education and is the co-author of The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family. Why Honest Money Conversations MatterThere once was a man who, when his girlfriend thought he was about to propose, surprised her by asking for her credit report instead. It's a funny story—but one that reveals a serious truth. Beneath money conversations are usually heart conversations.For couples forming blended families, this truth runs even deeper. Life has already taught them that marriage isn't guaranteed, whether because of death or a divorce. That experience creates an understandable sense of caution: How deeply do I invest again? Can I trust this new relationship?Money becomes the testing ground for those questions. That's why avoiding financial conversations doesn't protect your relationship—it weakens it. Only about one in four dating or engaged couples forming a blended family ever have a serious talk about finances before they marry. The rest often underestimate what needs to be uncovered.Finances are never just about dollars and cents. They're about values, power, and security. Beneath a discussion about budgets might be an unspoken fear: Will your children be treated equally with mine? Beneath a talk about wills might be a hidden worry: Will you care for my kids if I'm gone?There was once a woman who had been remarried for 25 years—two and a half decades of life together—and she still wondered whether her husband would provide equally for her children after she passed away. The question had never been resolved. It lingered from the past, quietly shaping their relationship.When those unspoken fears remain unaddressed, they create invisible walls. Healthy couples have the courage to name them and work through them together.The Challenge of Inheritance and TrustConsider the story of Sandra and Dave, a couple who married later in life. Sandra, a divorced mother of two adult children, was asked by her new husband, Dave, to change her will and make him her sole beneficiary. To Dave, who had no children of his own, the request seemed simple and loving: We're one now—just leave everything to me, and I'll take care of your family.But Sandra hesitated. Her adult children hadn't had time to form a close bond with Dave. For her, the request stirred deep questions: How do I know that what she's set aside for her children will be honored after she's gone?This is where trust, loyalty, and belonging intersect. Financial peace in a blended family isn't achieved through documents—it's achieved through relational clarity. You can't solve financial questions until you've addressed the relational ones.Moving from Prenuptial to TogethernessSo what's the alternative? In the book, The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family, Ron Deal, Greg Pettis, and David Edwards, introduce what they call a “Togetherness Agreement.”Think of it as a redeemed version of a prenuptial agreement. A traditional prenup is something you do to your spouse—it outlines what they won't receive if the marriage fails. But a Togetherness Agreement is something you do for your spouse. It outlines how you will lovingly and intentionally provide for one another and your families.In a Togetherness Agreement, couples prayerfully decide together:How do they care for children from prior relationshipsHow inherited or premarital assets will be handledHow responsibilities to other households or parents will be honoredAnd how they'll support one another financially in love and unityIt's not about dividing assets—it's about uniting hearts. This process builds emotional safety, which in turn builds trust. When couples feel safe, they can finally exhale, knowing they are truly invested in each other.Taking Inventory—Emotionally and FinanciallyBefore crafting any agreement, couples need to take inventory. That means both emotional and financial reflection.Ask questions like:What financial baggage or debts are we bringing in?What past wounds or fears still shape the way we view money?What are our goals—for our family, our faith, and our future?Blended families are always born out of loss—whether death, divorce, or something else. That history doesn't have to define the new relationship, but it does need to be acknowledged. Honest reflection helps couples avoid repeating old patterns and build a healthier foundation together.Every couple's situation is different, but here are key topics that should be covered in a Togetherness Agreement:Joint and separate accountsDebt and financial obligations from prior marriagesChild or spousal support payments to other householdsRetirement, insurance, and investmentsCollege, cars, and other child-related expensesCovering these topics doesn't weaken love—it strengthens it. It replaces assumptions with clarity and fear with peace.If all of this feels overwhelming, take heart. You don't have to figure it out alone. Seek wise counsel—a trusted financial planner, pastor, or Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) can help you find creative and God-honoring ways to care for your family.And above all, remember this: God's grace is sufficient for your blended family. Submit your plans to Him. Let Him guide the process. As you do, He will grow you—not only in financial wisdom, but in love, unity, and faith.When couples move from mine and yours to ours, they begin to reflect the very heart of God, who makes two one, and who calls us to love generously, even in the way we handle money.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I've been struggling with $26,000 in credit card debt that I recently disclosed to my husband. A credit consolidation company says they can negotiate it down, so I'd pay $400 every two weeks and be debt-free in four years. It sounds good, but is this a trustworthy option—or are there drawbacks I should watch out for?I have UTMA accounts for my two sons, but I am considering switching to 529 plans. I'm mainly concerned that with the UTMA, they'll gain full control of the money once they come of age. Would a 529 plan be a wiser choice?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family by Ron L.

Sign up for the FREE Live Webinar: Get Off the ‘Hot Girl' Hamster Wheel You know that moment when you start noticing subtle changes in your skin and wonder if it's too early (or too late) to start 'anti-aging'? This episode of The Skin Real invites you to rethink that narrative. Dr. Mary Alice Mina sits down with Barbara Green to unpack the science and soul of pre-aging: a proactive, empowering approach to skin longevity that begins in your 20s and 30s. Together, they explore what's really happening beneath the surface when collagen starts to dip, why sunscreen is your best anti-aging tool, and how simple, evidence-based routines can keep your skin radiant for decades!   Key Takeaways: ✓ Pre-aging isn't fear-based. it's future-based: it's about protecting, preserving, and boosting what you already have. ✓ Collagen starts to decline by 1% per year in your mid-20s, making daily sun protection and gentle skincare key to maintaining firmness and glow. ✓ Sunscreen is non-negotiable. It's the single most effective way to prevent premature aging—and it doesn't have to be expensive or complicated. ✓ Ingredients that matter: SPF, peptides, vitamin C, niacinamide, and retinol (used appropriately) are the building blocks of youthful, resilient skin. ✓ Healthy skin mirrors healthy habits.

What if it is your desire for a relationship that is keeping you from having one? That is such a crazy suggestion, isn't it? But what if it's true? Could it be that hidden within our desire to be in a relationship was an unconscious motivation that was, in fact, sabotaging us and keeping us from a healthy connection? In this episode, I am suggesting that very thing, that we are our own worst enemy when it comes to attracting lasting love, but we don't know it!   This is part three of a 7-part series where Roy offers answers to the 7 questions found in his newest book, Quantum Questions: How Answering 7 Radical Questions Leads to Attracting a Healthy, Lasting, Intimate Relationship.   This episode discusses the third question in the book, What's the REAL Reason I Want a Relationship? If you want to attract lasting love, learning to be present is critically important.   Don't miss this episode!   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

When you think back on the holidays growing up, I'm willing to bet, the thing you remember most is not the decorations, not the presents, but the thing you remember most is the food. The smell of scalloped potatoes and ham in the oven, have half a dozen choices for pie, the treat tray of homemade goodies that would come out in the afternoon. Those are the memories that stick. But somewhere along the way, chances are after Grandma wasn't making the meal anymore, our modern holiday season became so busy, so commercialized, that we traded those things for convenience. We grab the pre-made cookie dough, the store-bought pies, the boxed side dishes or the gravy packet, and while there's nothing inherently wrong with that, I think many of us feel something is missing. Maybe you find yourself wishing for more or for holidays meals to be like they used to be. Today, I want to talk about how to bring real food back into our kitchens, and give your practical steps on how you create those special traditions for your family. You don't have to be a gourmet cook or have a picture-perfect kitchen. With a little bit of prioritizing and planning, you can make delicious food from scratch that your kids will remember and talk about for a lifetime,  even when you are in the middle of a busy holiday season. I hope this episode inspires you to make positive changes around holiday food this season, to start incorporating more real ingredients so you can feed your family well. But also know that this is not an all or nothing. This is not a legalistic thing that you shall only eat healthy non-processed foods. This is an opportunity to take baby steps towards better eating, and set your kids up to have a legacy of from-scratch cooking in your home.

RFK Jr. says that new dietary guidelines will be released in December and he claims they will change food culture in the U.S. We can hope this change is positive, but considering how RFK Jr has backed mRNA, rubber stamped a MAHA report with AI writing and errors, and push processed prepared meals, the change might be negative. Already the USDA recommends vegetables and fruits, but RFK Jr. has hinted how the new guidelines will include more promotion of meat and dairy products, though he say “Whole Foods” will be a big part of the new guidance. Is it possible the guidelines get worse? Does it matter when few consult them to begin with? What does it matter when some States try to independently start initiatives that lack funding and respect anyway? Even if the entire government of every state moved in a positive direction is it possible the public would rebel? At the core of this problem is a cultural issue that neglects food education, or what the Japanese call Shokuiku, and it extends to healthcare in general. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Episode 3801: Danielle Omar reminds us that food isn't just fuel, it's a powerful form of self-care. Through mindful eating and simple nutrition strategies, she shows how we can reduce stress, improve digestion, and build a healthier, more joyful relationship with what we eat. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.foodconfidence.com/2023/01/23/self-care-ideas-nutrition/ Quotes to ponder: "Healthy eating could be one of the most overlooked, yet vital, forms of self-care." "Are you eating with joy and treating yourself with love and kindness rather than criticizing yourself for eating foods you shouldn't be eating?" "Good digestive health is crucial so your body can break down, use, and store the vitamins and nutrients you consume."
