Holly Bertone was an FBI Chief of Staff for Counterintelligence until her career was derailed cancer and autoimmune disorders. Twenty years in a high-pressure job with ultimate stakes had taken their toll and contributed to the demise of her health.   But she didn't let her years of intelligence training go to waist. After leaving her dream job she began investigating why her body was failing her. It was espionage on her "food monsters" that enabled her to finally crack the code on her emotional eating.   It wasn't long before she accomplished her new mission of becoming a Certified Holistic Health Coach. Now she is using the same investigative tactics to help other high-achieving women solve their own mysteries by overcoming emotional eating and reclaiming their health.   Holly joins Chuck Carroll to share her incredible journey back to health on The Exam Room Podcast.   — — SHOW LINKS — — Holly Bertone Website: https://hollybertone.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/holly.bertone — — EVENTS — — Lotus Health Summit Where: Rochester, MN When: April 17-18, 2025 Who: Drs.

Emotional eating can feel like an unstoppable force — especially in perimenopause when hormones are all over the place. But what if you could finally break free from the cycle without guilt or restriction? This week, I'm joined by Certified Holistic Health Coach Holly Bertone

In this episode of The Made Fit Show, we're thrilled to welcome Holly Bertone, a former FBI Chief of Staff in counterintelligence, who has completely transformed her career to become a certified holistic health coach. Holly's journey from navigating high-stakes government roles to empowering women to overcome emotional eating is nothing short of remarkable. After struggling with her own food-related challenges, Holly discovered that managing emotional eating is much like her former work in the FBI—it's all about identifying patterns and neutralizing threats. Now, Holly is on a mission to help high-achieving midlife women break free from the grips of emotional eating and defy the pressures of diet culture. She shares how her science-backed, non-restrictive approach empowers women to fuel their bodies for energy, health, and happiness without relying on willpower or extreme dieting tactics. Holly's unique perspective, shaped by her two decades in high-pressure government roles, allows her to offer fresh, actionable insights for those struggling with food struggles, stress, and the cycle of restrictive dieting. During this conversation, Holly opens up about her own personal transformation, including her experience with emotional eating while working at the FBI, where she found comfort in mindlessly eating M&Ms while powering through her work. She shares candid stories about the emotional connection to food, how it can affect our well-being, and how women can navigate their own journeys toward better health with a mindset shift. Whether you're a woman navigating the pressures of a high-achieving career, managing family responsibilities, or struggling to break free from food-related stress, Holly's empowering message will resonate with you. Tune in for an inspiring discussion filled with insights and practical strategies to help you reclaim your health, break free from emotional eating, and rebel against diet culture—all while living a balanced, fulfilling life. https://academy.pinkfortitude.com/about     This episode is sponsored by one of my favorite companies that I use every day - Kion  Go to the link to get 20% off https://www.getkion.com/made   Melissa McAllister FNTP, FNC, RWP I wasn't always a health nut – in fact, I used to be a French Fries and Pepsi connoisseur!

Holly Bertone and Karen Stringer are two incredible women who have used The Miracle Morning to overcome tremendous challenges, achieve their biggest goals, and create lives they once thought were impossible.

As a former FBI Chief of Staff for Counterintelligence, she pivoted to a career as a Certified Holistic Health Coach after battling breast cancer and an autoimmune disease. And if that wasn't enough, while going through a difficult divorce, The Miracle Morning became her anchor, helping her rebuild her confidence, business, and life. In this conversation, you'll hear how they applied The Miracle Morning principles to unlock new opportunities, shift their mindset, and achieve goals they could only dream about.

Send us some LOVE!What happens when a life of success and achievement is abruptly halted by illness and loss? Join me as I chat with Holly Bertone, a holistic health coach specializing in midlife wellness for women. Holly shares her compelling journey from the heights of the FBI and competitive athletics to confronting the harsh realities of breast cancer, an autoimmune disease, and chronic fatigue. She opens up about the dual grief of losing her mother and grappling with an identity crisis after the end of her prestigious career and athletic endeavors. Through her story, Holly emphasizes the critical importance of acknowledging and managing grief to foster health and wellness. Explore the concept of the "comeback" through both significant life events and smaller, cumulative challenges. We discuss the "base camp cycle," a metaphor for the initial enthusiasm and subsequent struggle we all face when attempting to improve our lives after setbacks. Drawing inspiration from iconic 80s movies like Rocky, we delve into the necessity of resolving unresolved emotions such as grief, resentment, guilt, and shame to create a sustainable future. Then, let's shift the focus to creating your future self by prioritizing metabolic health over vanity metrics. Holly shares personal anecdotes about overcoming unhealthy habits and transforming obstacles into opportunities for growth. Holly's Rocky-inspired framework for comebacks, along with her advice on small, consistent efforts, offers practical guidance for advocating for your future self.

Holly Bertone is a trailblazer who transitioned from a career at the FBI to becoming a leading voice in holistic health for women. Holly's journey is nothing short of remarkable after battling cancer and chronic illness. She emphasizes the importance of holistic healing, addressing not just the physical symptoms but also the mental and emotional aspects. Holly's "Rocky Framework" guides women to make peace with their past, take responsibility for their health, and create a sustainable, vibrant future. 3 Key Takeaways: Healing is Multifaceted: Disease is often the result of years of chronic inflammation from diet, toxins, stress, and trauma. True healing involves addressing these root causes through a holistic approach that combines lifestyle changes, nutrition, and mental well-being. Small Steps Lead to Sustainable Change: Instead of drastic diets or workouts, focus on small, consistent changes that you enjoy. Empowerment Through Self-Responsibility: Take ownership of your health journey. Recognize that you have the power to make choices that affect your well-being. Call to Action: If Holly's story resonates with you and you're ready to take charge of your health and well-being, visit Holly's website at Your Comeback Story to explore her Rocky Framework and learn how you can start your journey to a healthier, more vibrant life today.

Holly helps women recover from burnout, address mindset issues, achieve sustainable weight loss, and live a healthier lifestyle without strict diets. We delved into the concept of creating a comeback story and the importance of mindset in achieving personal goals.Holly shared her five-step framework, called Rocky, which stands for Rear View Mirror, Own Your Ship, Create Your Future Self, Keep the Vision, and Go Home to You. These steps focus on reflection, taking personal responsibility, envisioning the future self, staying focused on the bigger picture, and connecting with one's inner strength. By following this framework, individuals can navigate challenges, take control of their lives, and embrace personal growth.HIGHLIGHTS:7:18 The Five-Step Comeback Story Process16:48 Starting the Personal Journey Towards Self-Discovery20:08 Finding Meaning in Life's Challenges21:44 Choosing Empowerment Over Victimhood24:56 Embracing Self-Exploration with CompassionCONNECT WITH HOLLY:Podcast HollyInstagramSPONSOR:Cellev8Discount code: THEALISONK2024ALISON'S LINKS:Check out the ULTIMATE PODCASTSGet your copy of Alison's Retreat ChecklistEMAIL MEVISIT MY WebsiteFIND ME on FacebookFOLLOW ME on TwitterFOLLOW ME on InstagramEXPLORE OUR RETREATS HERE!JOIN OUR GROUP HERE If you are a health/fitness/wellness entrepreneur, or a coachINNOVATION AVENUE: Fitness & Self-Care Revolution on FacebookANDROID USERS leave a REVIEW on PODCHASERAPPLE USERS leave a REVIEW on APPLE PODCASTS

A lot of us have a story about that time we hit rock bottom.For some of us, we find out there's yet another rock bottom when the floor bursts out from the one we're on.Then another.What happens when you're looking for the safety net, like someone in a freefall, and it doesn't appear?How does it feel when you have values but are physically incapable of living up to them - especially as an overachiever?Holly Bertone was raised to put the values of honesty and integrity first. When she had the chance to go partying with her friends but she had a commitment, like a babysitting gig, her answer was obvious and did not require any thought. Her dad had a sign in his office that said "If you don't do, you don't get" and this simple mantra had a deep impact on her.In school, she did a project studying the psychology of Charles Manson and became fascinated by how the human mind works. She dreamed of working for the FBI and chasing serial killers.It took a few steps, but she got there - she became a chief of staff at the FBI.Her career and her life were going fine - but Fine is a 4-Letter Word.As an overachiever, she found out that when you raise yourself to that level, the falls that happen when events beyond your control intervene can be especially debilitating.In 2010, she was diagnosed with cancer, and eventually developed Hashimoto's thyroiditis, an autoimmune disorder we've discussed on the show before.In 2017, a series of events led to her forced resignation from the FBI.She started a coaching practice, and just when she was getting traction, her divorce went into a whirlpool, and she couldn't even take on new clients.When honesty and integrity and the belief "if you don't do, you don't get" are your core principles, yet you're so mentally and physically debilitated you can't get out of bed, that's a long, hard fall, especially for an overachiever.In a moment, when you meet Holly, you'll discover how it felt for her to be in a seemingly endless freefall asking, "what now"? Discovering how to reconcile when events beyond her control conflict with her core beliefs has been a journey. And these events have required her to center herself around keeping going, never giving up, knowing her life is still a work in progress.You'll also find out how much of it can be helped by brain chemicals.Holly's hype song is "Now That We Found Love" by Heavy D & The Boyz.Resources:Holly Bertone's website: https://pinkfortitude.com/ Resources for listeners: https://academy.pinkfortitude.com/podcast-landing-welcomeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pinkfortitude/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/holly.bertone/Invitation from Lori:Like Holly, you may reach a point where you feel you've achieved your dreams through a combination of honesty, integrity, and fortitude.Then, life steps in and makes it physically impossible to continue.At some level, you may know you need to take a step back to evaluate where...
