If you've ever ground away on a treadmill and wondered why the scale won't budge, this episode is for you. Lisa Oldson, MD breaks down one of the most persistent myths in weight loss culture: that exercise is the key to getting thinner. Decades of research say otherwise, and understanding why is one of the most liberating things you can do for your relationship with movement.In this episode you'll learn why exercise triggers metabolic compensation (your body is smarter than any fitness tracker), what Herman Pontzer's landmark research on the Hadza people of Tanzania revealed about calorie burn and physical activity, and why even marathon training rarely produces significant weight loss. You'll also learn why exercise IS one of the most powerful predictors of long-term weight maintenance once the weight is lost, and why that distinction matters enormously.Dr. Lisa also covers the surprisingly robust evidence linking regular movement to depression, anxiety, and stress relief. This includes research showing that exercise can be as effective as antidepressants and therapy for some people. She also walks through the behavioral science of actually building a habit that sticks, covering the Stages of Change, Self-Determination Theory, identity-based habits, and why motivation is the wrong thing to chase.Thanks for listening!

You're working out. You're eating healthy. You're trying to make the right choices.So why isn't the scale moving?In this episode of The Mindset Diet, I break down eight “healthy” habits that may look good on paper but could actually be slowing down your weight loss progress. From under-eating protein to relying on supplements, overdoing cardio-style workouts, cutting carbs, and walking into the week without a food plan, this episode will help you spot the hidden gaps in your routine and understand what to do instead.This episode is especially for the woman who feels like she is doing everything right but still not seeing results.Work with us:Inside the Built By Balance program, we do not just ask, “Are you eating healthy?” or “Are you working out?”We look at the full picture: your protein, calories, meal structure, workouts, stress, sleep, recovery, hormones, lifestyle, and the specific constraints that may be keeping your body from responding.You do not need another random diet, free workout plan, or trendy recipe. You need clarity on what is actually holding you back and a plan to fix it.Apply for coaching here: http://builtbybalancefitness.com/book-a-call

After 30 years in health, Dr. Mindy is calling time on the rules.This solo episode is one of the most personal things she's shared on this podcast. It covers two big ideas: the science and story behind why she stopped fasting for most of the past year and the five health habits she's deliberately walking away from in 2026.First, flex fasting. When cortisol is high from grief, trauma, illness, perimenopause, or chronic stress rigidly pushing through long fasting windows doesn't support the body. It depletes it. Dr. Mindy shares what happened when she lost a close friend and found herself in an acute stress state, what the research says about prolonged fasting and the HPA axis, and how she developed a new approach she's calling flex fasting: a more intuitive, body-led way to use fasting as a tool without turning it into a rule.Then the five things she's giving up: counting (macros, biometrics, followers, all of it), the gym, other people's urgency, productivity over health, and information overconsumption. Each one is a direct response to what the wellness industry has quietly done to us — turned health into a full-time job with a performance review.RESOURCES MENTIONED:Fast Like a Girl: https://www.drmindypelz.com/booksAge Like a Girl: https://www.drmindypelz.com/booksSubstack Article "I Stopped Fasting for a Year": https://substack.com/@drmindypelz/Carb Manager App carbmanager.com, available on iOS, Android, and webThe Movement Diet: Redefining Fitness at Every Age with Katy BowmanStudy: Prolonged Fasting, HPA Axis & Cortisol - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12736288/Study: Estrogen & Cortisol Regulation - https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article/102/12/4457/4587523Midlife Women Fasting Trial - https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-65678-zStudy: Self-Selected Fasting Windows - https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-024-03375-yBEAM Minerals, use code MINDY for 20% off: https://www.beamminerals.com/?oid=4&affid=648LMNT, get a free sample pack with your order: https://bit.ly/drinklmntpelzTo view full show notes, resources mentioned, transcripts, and more, visit

The habits that actually optimize your health are not the hard ones. They are the small, low-effort ones you can do without rearranging your whole life. We get sold protocols and programs and things that can feel too complicated or demand time you do not have, so the simple hacks get passed over because it feels too obvious to matter. But the simplest and obvious healthy habits are obvious because they work. When you stack a few of them together, they compound into something that changes your life in the long run. In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I walk through the easy, low-effort habits I do every day that have optimized my life tenfold, even on the busiest days, from how I start my morning to how I trick myself into staying hydrated. Let's dive in! What's Discussed: (1:56) Why start every morning with 32 ounces of lemon water and how that can set up your whole day. (3:33) Why three short walks beat one long walk for your body. (5:19) Why working out first thing makes me sharper and more productive all day. (5:48) The impact of hot and cold therapy and how to do it without a sauna or cold plunge. (7:06) Why weight training is non-negotiable, especially after 40. (8:04) Why having healthy food on hand saves you from your own worst decisions. (8:42) The healthy habit nobody calls a habit: laughing every day. (9:51) The elastic band trick that forces you to actually drink enough water. Thank You to Our Sponsors!

In this episode, Alex Quin and Michelle Chia return to the podcast after a brief hiatus to share personal and professional updates, discuss the realities of entrepreneurship, and break down the healthy habits that help them sustain long workdays without burning out. From sleep, exercise, nutrition, and stress management to setting boundaries, journaling, and personal growth, they offer practical insights for entrepreneurs looking to build successful businesses while protecting their health and well-being.Episode Outline:[00:00] Welcome Back and Life Updates[02:15] Agency Growth, New Clients, and New Books[04:20] Why We Chose Healthy Habits for Entrepreneurs[08:05] Sleep, Recovery, and Long-Term Performance[10:12] Taking Breaks, Walking, and Staying Active[12:25] Time Blocking and Productivity Systems[14:15] Setting Boundaries With Clients[16:05] Learning to Say No[17:35] WHOOP, Oura Ring, and Health Tracking[19:05] Michelle's Cortisol and Stress Story[21:40] Nutrition, Hydration, and Managing Stress[23:10] The Tarzan "Swinging Vines" Concept[25:05] Becoming Your 2.0 Self[26:40] Journaling, Books, and Personal Growth[27:50] Habits We're Trying to Change[28:40] Final Thoughts and Closing RemarksWisdom Nuggets:Sleep Is a Competitive Advantage: Entrepreneurs often treat sleep like a luxury instead of a necessity. Alex and Michelle remind us that better decisions, sharper focus, and sustainable growth all start with proper recovery. The goal isn't to work more hours—it's to make your hours more effective.Protect Your Energy: Being available 24/7 may feel like great customer service, but constant accessibility creates burnout. Setting healthy boundaries with clients, coworkers, and even family members allows you to show up at your best when it matters most.Track Your Health Like Your Business: Most entrepreneurs obsess over revenue, sales, and analytics while ignoring their own health metrics. Monitoring stress levels, sleep quality, blood work, and recovery can help identify issues early and improve long-term performance.Let Go to Level Up: Growth often requires releasing habits, relationships, or routines that no longer serve your future. Like Tarzan swinging from one vine to the next, you have to let go of the old before you can fully grab onto new opportunities.Become Your Next Version: Success isn't about staying the same person and hoping for different results. The habits, mindset, and behaviors that got you here may not be enough to get you where you want to go next. Continuous self-improvement is a requirement, not an option.Power Quotes"Your heart rhythm is a very important thing that people don't even pay attention to." - Alex Quin"It's okay to say no and it's okay to put yourself first." - Michelle ChiaConnect with Michelle:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/michellechia)Linkedin: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-chia1/)Connect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Books Mentioned:Atomic Habits — James ClearThe Road Less Stupid — Keith J.

In this episode of Lead Time, Tim Ahlman talks with Jim Simpson, a retired higher education leader with decades of experience in curriculum development, administration, accreditation, and student success. Together, they explore what higher education has learned about adult learners, hybrid models, mentorship, internships, and competency-based formation — and what those lessons might mean for Concordia seminaries and pastoral training in the LCMS.This conversation touches on residential seminary, SMP, hybrid learning, accreditation, prior approval, faculty development, and the need for local churches to identify, develop, and deploy leaders for mission.This is not about cutting corners. It is about asking whether the LCMS can adapt faithfully so more people are formed, equipped, and sent to proclaim the Gospel.Support the show⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️Care about the future of the LCMS?Join the LCMS Current!

Could eating the same foods more often actually help you lose more weight? In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD digs into the surprising science behind dietary simplicity, and why reducing the variety of what you eat may be one of the most underrated weight loss strategies out there.Dr. Lisa covers a brand-new 2026 study from the American Psychological Association showing that people who ate repetitive meals lost significantly more weight than those who constantly varied their food choices. She also explains the biology of sensory-specific satiety, the built-in appetite mechanism that food companies exploit to keep you eating more, and shares data from the National Weight Control Registry on how the most successful long-term weight losers actually eat.Plus: a counterintuitive finding about weekend food tracking that may completely change how you approach your weekend meals.You'll walk away with 5 practical tips for simplifying your meals, building a personal dinner rotation, and using food routines to reduce decision fatigue, so healthy eating starts to feel automatic instead of exhausting.Thanks for listening!

In this episode of Lead Time, Tim Ahlman sits down with Coach Patrick Daberkow, head football coach at Concordia University, Nebraska. Together, they talk about what makes a healthy team culture, why football still matters in an age of individualism, how young men are formed through accountability and hardship, and why faith cannot simply be one priority among many — it has to shape the whole life.This conversation is about more than football.

Most entrepreneurs know they should prioritize their health — but knowing and doing are two very different things. In this episode of the Elite Business Advice Podcast, host Chris Moore pulls back the curtain on the health and fitness journey he's been on this year and shares the three things that have actually produced real, consistent results.Chris breaks down why tracking macros — not just calories — changed everything, how he's using tools like ChatGPT and MacrosFirst to take the guesswork out of nutrition, and why pre-logging meals is one of the most powerful habits you're probably not doing. He also gets into the mental benefits of working out 3–4 times per week, why not blowing the diet matters more than not missing a workout, and the role that accountability has played in keeping the momentum going through 6:30 AM morning check-ins and shared wins.If you've been putting your health on the back burner while building your business, this episode is your permission slip to make it a priority — and a practical roadmap for doing it in a way that's actually sustainable.
