Christina is the special guest chef and recipe provider in our Nourish Yourself coaching program that runs only once a year. We recently put out an AMA on Instagram asking what questions and anxieties are particularly present for you in this precarious post holiday moment when the New Year, arrives along with RESOLUTIONS SELF CARE and of course DIETS.We got so many wonderful questions, from what is ‘balanced eating' and how do I get there, to how to handle other peoples' body/diet talk. Today, we discuss your questions and provide (hopefully) some answers. We will be doing a part 2 early next month (when maybe a few dry-January/Whole 30 plans haven't shaken out as hoped). Feel free to comment with more questions to be answered in that episode!These are also the questions that are addressed in Nourish Yourself, our seven-week anti-diet coaching program that aims to equip you with the information you need to empower yourself around food and gain the confidence to make choices that work for YOUR life and YOUR body. Our winter 2025 course starts in March and enrollment opens in February—you can sign up for the waitlist here to be notified.During Nourish Yourself you get 7 Weeks of gentle focus, redefining the patterns and thought processes holding us back from ease and joy around food, cooking and even grocery shopping! The course also features Live Virtual one-to-one sessions with Cadence and a LIVE VIRTUAL GROUP COOKING CLASS with Christina Chaey to ground us in our own personal skills and goals.Let go of anxiety and overwhelm around food and 'diet'. Get the information and tools you need to find what works for you, your life and your body.

Please check out my other offerings…Virtual Run Club enrollment is currently open and closes Jan 10th. Each series we start with a group coach call. 9 out of 10 participants begin by saying how much they hate running or are terrified to start. It's a truly beginner friendly program. Many VRC alums have gone on to create non-obsessive, joyful running practices, and even inspired our next level up Virtual Marathon Training Club.I also teach beginner strength and stability via Kettlebells and Pilates as well as several restorative classes and workshops including Anti-Anxiety Cardio and Fascia Release™ . All my programs are designed to gently shift our bodies into balance without the shame or ‘sweat is fat crying' mentality that infects so much of mainstream fitness. I hope you can find something here that supports you.You can also find plenty of free support on my IG HERETranscriptCadence: Hello, I'm Cadence Dubus. This is Busy Body podcast and today I'm here with Christina Chaey. I'm super excited to kind of co-host this conversation today with Christina because we are collaborating on the Nourish Yourself program which is rolling out this winter/spring to support everyone. Christina, introduce yourself and why you're here today.Christina: Oh, sure. Hi, I'm Christina Chaey. I use she/her pronouns, and I am a recipe developer, a writer, soon-to-be first-time cookbook author. I have my first cookbook coming out in early 2026. I write a newsletter on Substack called Gentle Foods where I write essays and contribute recipes really around a very aligned topic of you know kind of nourishing yourself and just meditations on I think finding peace with cooking and just finding ritual and practice in that process.Cadence: That's exactly one of the reasons why I reached out to you to do this program together, because your focus is very much in this space of accessible eating that's still delicious, exciting, interesting, not rote, you know. And also makes space for mistakes or jazzing up something from your pantry, like there's a lot of options. It feels very scalable. I really like cooking and I like eating, but looking at your recipes, I'm like, oh, I could literally take it to this next level. Or I can imagine someone who really is like, I've never really cooked something more complicated than like stir-fry. You also have options and you're very like clear about that in your Substack, like try this breakfast thing it's like three ingredients and I've been eating it all week and I feel like somebody who's like kind of looking at you aspirationally would be like okay, maybe I can try that, you know, and then you know see your photos from like the big holiday meals and stuff that you make that are really like, okay, I can see why she worked at Bon Appétit. And understand that there's a scale to go to, but it doesn't feel at all like, oh my god, I could never and I just follow her to be wowed all the time.So I wanted to bring that in because I really felt and feel like food appreciation and kind of food awareness, food knowledge is such an important aspect of developing peace around food. And knowledge in general, that's such a part of my brand, like how your body works, understanding why things happen, understanding what pain is, understanding what cellulite is, like understanding these things so that they aren't haunting us or kind of like hanging over us in some way. So that's a really important aspect of the program is that you really bring this like, you can do it, here's just ways to make hummus not be the most boring thing for you.Or, like, we literally do a live cooking class with you, which, you know, I think everyone experiences, like, oh, I'm doing it. It's happening. Like, I just made a meal that's going to last me several days, and it wasn't the scariest thing I ever did.Christina: Right, totally.Cadence: So we did an AMA that you beautifully articulated on your [Instagram] stories. We wanted to answer some questions today that are very much in line with what we talk about in the course. And the people that ask those questions, those are our peeps. These are who we hope are going to join.Christina: Yeah.Cadence: Talk us through what you put out there.Christina: Yeah. And thank you for that lovely introduction. You know, Nourish is something where I feel like I never took that course with you when you were running it, I think maybe a year before we started working on it together, but I wanted to. I was very intrigued by it. And even as someone who works in this industry, who has worked in food and worked in food media and restaurants and whatever for the last decade-plus of my life, it's just funny because I'll read a description of the Nourish course on your website and I'll be like, I need that! And all to say the things that we're talking about today, the questions that we're examining and hopefully trying to shed some light on, one: I feel like I want to emphasize to people like these are not the right answers. We're not coming with right answers. We're not coming with like definitive science or whatever. Like that's not what I do. I feel like what I try to do is examine sort of like the emotional and the stuff that we kind of hold on to that's like behind the questions. Like, okay, what are the things that we're really feeling that are driving some of these anxieties and fears and guilt? And how do we look at these things with a bit more compassion? And I feel like that's something that you share as well.Cadence: Another way to say we're not giving the right answers is that really the way that I teach and coach people is what is called in the industry “client-led,” meaning my role is to be like a shepherd, a guide. I really believe people have the answers in them. I think we are all beautiful, sentient beings and really we kind of know. We're like plants growing towards the light. We kind of know where we want to be.Often we don't have the resources which could literally be knowledge, straight knowledge. So that's literally what's in our course. Like the three workshops that people get, one is just like, what are carbohydrates, protein, fat? What are they doing? How do we digest them? Did you ever sit down and really look those up and learn about how they break down your body? Or have you just been reading like pop diet information from various magazines and being like carbs fat protein good. If you don't really understand how these work, you're always going to be just at the mercy of the next kind of fad or headline or whatever. And also it could just be someone creating space, which I think is a big part of we're doing, like a container to help you have insight. Even like a yoga class is basically a space for people to breathe, be self-reflective, go internal, be restful. They might not be able to provide that for themselves regularly.Christina: Totally.Cadence: But they're like, oh, I love this class that I take every Saturday morning. Who cares what the moves are? What it is is this calm space where the lights are dimmed and there's nice music. And maybe that's really the value of that. So I also really always, and I think this is also a place that our values align, I am always steering people away from anyone who's like, “This is the right way and that is the wrong way.” That is a huge red flag immediately because there isn't a way that works for every single human, and you know there are like general rules of non-self-harm and things like that don't poison you know but one person's like ideal way of eating can be completely not workable for another person based on all kinds of things. So that is literally why the diet industry exists because it's complicated. If it was simple, that whole world wouldn't work.Christina: Yeah. You know the other thing I was going to say is that we are only human. We too are people and consumers of media and just like, crap in the world. Yesterday as I was doing some prep for this episode, I totally got got by one of those sponsored ads that are popping up all over my Instagram that are like, “This is the way that you're going to eat right and everything's going to change and your skin's going to clear up and you're going to lose 20 pounds and you're going to blah, blah, blah and then, and then it'll be over for all of you,” you know? But I totally got got. It was an ad from some kind of low FODMAP-specific food delivery service. But the ad was like, it was aesthetically attractive, it was showing all these yummy foods, it was talking about, you know, how the service makes it easy to go through all the steps of what it means to follow a low FODMAP diet, which for anyone who doesn't know is just, It's a certain kind of diet that's often prescribed by doctors that involves specific phases of eliminating like a ton of foods and then reintroducing them slowly. And I was just like, wow, this sounds great! I love this! I need this. And then I was like…but I don't! I was like, before the second I was watching this ad where it was talking about these specific phases and how this service was going to help me achieve all of them, this thought has never crossed my mind before as something I might want or need in my life. But the temptation to just have like an easy answer, or I think the right answer, all these things we just talked about is super real and it continues to be something I navigate in my own life, which is why I appreciated that so many of the questions that we got from people really followed a few major themes.Number one, thank you to everyone for sending these amazing questions. We got dozens. And I think some of the major themes that I noticed in these questions were, you know, a real concern around this “right way” to eat. A lot of stuff around restriction and moderation and finding balance, which I have a lot of thoughts about, and I'm sure you do, too. Ingredient-specific fear mongering, so I would say that's anything related to fears around sugar or carbs or seed oils or whatever it is, this messaging around “evil foods.” And then I think another huge one was just handling when other people around you are engaging in this sort of harmful talk around dieting and other toxic mentalities around food and bodies.Cadence: A bunch of the questions also were with like domestic partners which is super challenging.Christina: Okay so I have a question for you, which is like, do you have a question that you feel like immediately struck you as like, oh my god, great question?Cadence: I have a few. They were all so good, they were great, so I think there's kind of a theme, there's like sort of a few questions that get mixed into one, which is all this kind of like how to frame healthy eating without that turning into restriction, how to eat well and balanced without giving up things that you like. How do I be healthy without overanalyzing everything that I'm eating? These are all in this same kind of Venn diagram of eating without freaking out, which I think is very much what we try to address in the Nourish program. Cause I think that there's a billion people out there, mainly women and femme-socialized people, who probably had much more extreme, disordered eating when they were younger, have kind of healed that to a point. They're not doing the more extreme behaviors that they did, you know, in their teens or their twenties. But now they're kind of in this nowhere zone, this ether where they're like, okay, I know what I shouldn't do anymore. I'm not micromanaging my meals like crazy or I'm not starving or binging or doing these more intense things. But I still have enormous anxiety, you know, and now it's just kind of floating around constantly and it's almost like I'm doing an impression of somebody who eats well and balanced, but I don't really know what that is. I don't know if that's resonating in my body. And it makes one really vulnerable to those kinds of Instagram ads because of course you want someone to go, “this is the way” or “stop eating this” or “all seed oils are killing you,” you know, “your coffee is rotten.” Like all these things. Have you heard that one, how the coffee beans are all rancid.Christina: I don't want to hear it. I have, I have, I just willfully tune it out.Cadence: Yeah, exactly. So I think that person, like that is this person who's educated and food aware enough that they're not living on completely super high processed food, but they are literally worrying, should I not be eating seed oils? Or, you know, is every time I eat a pastry or, you know, some salami, pepperoni, something that's processed in that way, is that horrible? And then I think with that comes a lot of restriction in ways that are maybe more subtle, but that's just the anxiety piece. Like a lot of just like, “I never have sugar” or “I never have dessert” or like, “I don't keep X, Y, Z in my house.” It's not a really joyful, free place. Even if from the outside, that person looks like, oh, they're eating a sandwich. They had avocado toast for breakfast. Like, what are you talking about? They seem fine.Christina: Yeah. As I was listening to you talk, I was reminded of something I've been working on a lot this year, which is just this idea of positive visions. I think what you were saying was basically like, if you're coming from this place of what not to do, if that's one column, this other column of what to do is not self-directed. It's not self-informed. It's not something that you're actively pursuing. All you're doing is pursuing something that you don't want to do. And so it totally makes sense that it then leaves this morass of just like, well, what do I do? And then it is this perfect funnel for all kinds of information and misinformation to come through, and at that point, it's just like no wonder everyone is confused about everything all the time. I actively feel like someone who counts myself as part of that demographic often, and this is my profession, which sometimes I forget that means I know more than the average person about a lot of this stuff. And yet here I am still feeling confused about plenty of things.But yeah, I mean, I think I'm curious to know what conversations look like with clients of yours and people that you work with around this idea of like, well, how do I do it? How do I do it right? And how do you go about shifting that to, well, maybe it's not objective, how do I do it right in an objective, singular way, but how do I make it right for me?Cadence: Yeah, exactly. So that's part of what we address in the program and when I work with people one-to-one, one thing that I ask is that they keep a food diary, which is different than calorie counting. I'm not asking for portion sizes or like how many grams of XYZ. Really, I just want to see a picture of their day because literally a picture of what you're eating says a lot. Like if you're getting up at four in the morning because you have a long commute and your first meal of the day is at like, 5:30 in the morning, that's going to be a very different picture throughout a day. That's a super long day if you get home at like 7:00 at night and you're going to bed at nine or whatever you know, versus someone who gets up at 10:30 in the morning and their first meal of the day is at 11, 11:30. I literally look at everyone's journals and then we just start talking about like, what is your lifestyle? Like what makes the most sense for you? Do you cook? Do you have time to cook? Where do you get your food? Do you like to do that? You know, this is how we start to remove the barriers.Like if you really find it hard to find time to shop, can we prepare your pantry and your shopping lists for when you do shop to really set you up so that you don't have to shop very much. And you still have a lot of options that are nourishing and balanced for you at home. And just literally start to create those creatively together. Like what are snacks that you can have on hand? Like what does a solid day look like for you? And hopefully with the self-awareness that we build in the program, people can also notice like, oh, I actually felt really good when we made XYZ plans, or that didn't work for me, I got really tired or my digestion was off, blah, blah, blah. Great, let's keep, you know, tweaking that to make it work for people.That's why, you know, dieting and various prescribed programs just don't work because it's literally just like putting something on top of someone. And like if you've got kids or you're up really late or whatever, suddenly your little meal plan just doesn't work anymore because it doesn't allow for variation and and that's why everyone quits eventually, I mean one of the many reasons.Christina: Yea. And this is where I feel like it can be so helpful to really challenge certain binaries and certain assumptions that we hold about food specifically. Like I noticed there were a couple of questions that people asked or comments that people made about snacking.Cadence: Right.Christina: And there's such a demonic kind of reputation that snacking has where it's the enemy. Snacking is my weakness. Like it's garbage, whatever. But to me and I think something that we emphasize a lot in this course and in our own philosophies is like the context of it really matters, where if a snack at a certain time of day is going to be the difference between you feeling like you're going to crash and you know binge at night and end up feeling horrible like right before you go to bed or whatever the scenario may be, then that is something that I would you know, I would advocate for you to eat that snack. And then I think from there it becomes a question of just like I think it's about a willingness to engage with what you're actually sort of feeling and how you mentally and physically are actually processing and digesting in the purest sense of the word, like the input.I feel like we have talked about this before, where…sorry I have to gather this thought. Oh yeah, with binaries, I think another one that comes to mind is this idea of “processed food is bad” or “fast food is bad” or whatever. And I'm thinking about someone who was in one of our courses a while back who, oh my God, I'm sorry. Can you hear the cat like screaming? I fed him specifically right before this so that he would not scream. But here he is being nourished again.But anyway, yes, this idea that processed foods are bad, fast food is bad. And I was thinking about this person who was in our course like a little while back, who I think she spent a lot of her day in her car for work, right, like that was just the reality of her life and her lifestyle. And that is a case where it's like, okay, you know that your lifestyle that requires you to get up in the morning and be in a car for an hour or two hours or something first thing in in the morning, that is not the person who is going to wake up tomorrow and be like, I'm gonna make a two-hour trad wife-style home breakfast for myself every morning before I get into my car, you know? Like that's not that's not going to be the right thing for that person. However, something that might be right for that person is, as you said, some education around what kinds of options might make them feel better during that car ride. Maybe it's about just grabbing the egg wrap at, you know, your drive-thru in the morning that you can eat in the car and getting that combo of protein and carbs and et cetera will end up making you sort of feel better throughout the day than a different choice. And those are the kinds of things that I feel like it can be really hard to know how to ask those questions if you don't know that those are the questions.Cadence: Yeah, exactly. That's a great point. And I think there's also an assumption that to change, it has to be somewhat like really drastic. I think that's very much what marketing and doing this around the new year, we're doing this intentionally because this is the time that there's just so much of like basically make a drastic change. The one that you fell down, it was like, “all your problems are solved like forever!” Like there are these really big promises. And it could be these baby steps of, what if you make a better choice at the drive through, start to notice how that feels. Maybe that turns into, oh my god, I can pre-make little egg McMuffin things at home actually and now I've just reduced like the salt and the grease and the this and the that, but like, let me get there slowly in my own time instead of taking that person and expecting them to make homemade granola every morning and like you know source a zillion beautiful nuts and grains and all this stuff. Like that's just that's not gonna happen.Christina: Yeah, and I think too, just being careful to unsubscribe from the…I'm not sure how to call it, maybe the “hierarchy of health” where it's like, you know, homemade granola is great. Homemade egg muffins are great. I am not really interested in telling someone, like, that that is a better choice for their life. Because it might not be, you know, and that's where I think it's so interesting to talk about other ways that we define health for ourselves, other ways that we define balance, where so often these things can look so explicitly like it's only about you know how many grams of carbohydrates you're eating in a day or only about how much unprocessed food you're eating or whatever it may be and it can feel super rigid. And in fact there are other determinants that I prioritize in my life or other things that I value. Maybe I'm someone who like the time I choose to spend not making homemade whatever is time that I would rather spend taking a 20-minute walk, do you know what I mean?Cadence?: It always makes me think of when I talk about this kind of like, what is “healthy,” you know, how much attention do we want or need to put into these aspects of our lives, specifically food and movement and those kinds of like health and wellness categories. I think of a couple of clients that I have and have had in the past who are doctors, like surgeons, emergency room doctors, and a client I had a long time ago who was in some kind of like creative I don't even know what he did. He worked for a big media company and would put out these really huge products of some kind. Big creative projects, videos, things happening in spaces. I think it's the kind of company that Google would hire to do a big event for them or something.Christina: Got it.Cadence: And all these people loved their jobs. Love, love, love their jobs. Huge amount of satisfaction, creativity, meaning. The surgeon in particular I'm thinking about, she would tell me she would do eight-hour surgeries on a moment's notice. That's being an emergency room surgeon, someone comes in with multiple gunshots, you go from chatting in the hallway with your colleague to eight hours straight on your feet, full focus. You're not being like, guys, I have to stop every three hours for a snack. Like, they don't get a pee break. I don't know how, I don't know how they do it. But she, and I mean, I would ask her, I was like, how do you like, what does that feel like? And she was like, you're just so like, this is how there's different people in the world for her and the way her brain works. She's like, you're so focused. Like, I don't have any thoughts about like, I have to pee or that I'm hungry. She's like, once I finish, I'm like, Oh my God, I'm so hungry. Like all this stuff, you know, but yeah, doesn't cross her mind. She's just completely immersed. And similarly, this person who did the creative media stuff, he had crazy long hours. He just worked insane hours. It was 100% taking a toll on his body. He knew it. He was always straining and spraining things. He was eating all over crazy food, no consistency of any kind. But he was really honest that he was like, I love my job. I love my life. Like I'm not willing to change what I'm doing right now. Maybe later he would, you know, but he was just like, this is what I worked my whole life for and I'm not going to like get like, you would get up at six to like immediately start working at home, take a shower, grab a quick snack, get on the subway, be at work. Like, he's not fitting in a 20-minute stretch session there, you know?Christina: Totally.Cadence: And I'm like, I respect that dude. Is that the body that I want to live in? No. But, like, he is super fulfilled in a different way, and I value that. Like, I'm not seeing a sad person who's feeling lost and confused and uncomfortable. He's like, this is the life I've always wanted. And similarly, with people in the medical field, a lot of times the environment dictates how they can take care of themselves, and that's just like a cost-benefit analysis. And to expect that person to drink a green juice in the middle of their 24-hour shift is just illogical, basically.Christina: Yeah. And that really brings up a lot of thoughts for me around how my conception of balance as it pertains to food just continues to evolve as I get older. I think where I am today I would say feels much more like balance doesn't mean that you're perfectly balanced in the middle of the seesaw and, neither here nor there is teeter-tottering to one side at all times. I think it's much more like I've come to believe in this idea of balance as rooted in resilience, which I think is also something that you and I both value a lot philosophically. The reality is that life brings different things to either side of the seesaw constantly. And balance is really about knowing where your center is and how to get there, no matter where you are on that seesaw, if that makes sense.Cadence: Yeah, absolutely. It's something that I write about a lot in my Substack, that we can't aim for sameness. Like sameness doesn't exist.Christina: Yeah.Cadence: Sameness is the perfectionist idea that I'm always going to approach every day, every meal, every problem, every setback with this perfect solution or this relaxed, optimistic, knowing way. But consistency, resilience is kind of the “two steps forward, one step back” thing. When I was in my twenties, I used to run myself ragged, not eat enough, not because I was having disordered eating, but because I was just a dumdum 20-year-old who was just not bringing snacks and being like, whatever. And I would get crazy hungry, eat too much in that I felt ill or like, it's just not nourishing, you know, regularly felt like it was too much for you. And it, and regularly kind of felt like I was going to faint or like shaky, you know, like not, it did not feel good.Christina: Right.Cadence: I have developed enough knowledge, skill, self-reliance, connection, confidence with my body, other resources, just like better planning ahead, joining the [food] co-op, things that give me resources for literally having better snacks around, that even when I still run myself ragged, I don't drop all the way back to that way of handling things. I might still get to a point where I'm like, oh my god I'm so hungry, but I'm not so hungry that I'm like eating an entire pizza on my own or just like cleaning out my whole fridge I'm so hungry like oh my god I'm so hungry I'm gonna eat my meal now you know?Christina: Right.Cadence: And I think like that's a place, that's a promise, you know, that I want to give people. It's like, I can give you the skills that you can lift out of kind of where you're feeling now. So you just have like a little more resilience to fall back on because you will get sick, interrupted, overstressed, overworked, go on vacation, have in-laws in your house for too long. All the things that do make it almost impossible to be like, I'm having my yogurt and chia seeds.Christina: Like you could choose to not do those things, I suppose, but really the consequence is that your world just becomes smaller and smaller. Like, that's not the life I'm trying to live, personally. And I continue to be on this journey, but it's taken me quite a long time to get to the place where I am now, where, you know, I was just thinking about growing up with women's magazines in the 2000s when I was a teenager and how balance with food, for me, my conception of balance with food is really rooted in some of that crap I was consuming during those years where balance was like, an always variety-packed 1200-calorie daily input that ends with a square of dark chocolate, you know? And it's like, well, I don't want a square of dark chocolate all the time. Does that mean I'm doing it wrong? Like it's just so funny to think about how much that defined these long-term ideas I have held around what it looks like to be balanced. And it's something that I find was really echoed in a lot of these questions that we got from people that were around, you know, like staying “healthy” but with “balance.”Cadence: Yeah, exactly. That is something that I address in the workshop. Literally one of the first questions I ask is like, what is healthy? What does that mean? What do we mean when we say that? And I just want to add, when you were like, we could avoid all those things, the social situations, the going out, the traveling, and then our life gets really small. And I would say what I think happens for people, is instead of avoiding those things, they just live in fear of them. They're excited for their trip to Cancún, and they're terrified that they're going to be drinking and eating too much and all this stuff. They're super excited to go to Christmas and New Year's or whatever holiday they're celebrating. At the same time, they're like, oh, there's going to be all these cookies and stuff. And there's this sense which I have addressed in several kind of social media posts that I've done, this idea that like one thing, one event, one meal, one handful of cookies is setting you down this dark path or undoing everything. And that's such a reductive way of thinking. And it's fed so much by like women's magazines. Like, that your guilty pleasure, your naughty treat, all this kind of stuff. Really what we're trying to build is a resilient engagement with our nourishment, with food, via appreciation, via just resourcing, with our knowledge, with our understanding and intuition with our bodies. Because like a cookie or a holiday meal or a two-week vacation, it doesn't, literally how our bodies work, how our metabolism works, it really doesn't affect you the way that we think it does. Sure, you get bloated, maybe. I mean I went to Italy for like 10 days and I definitely came back and I was like wow, two plates of pasta and a bottle of wine every day does make a difference. But also since I don't live in Italy sadly, I didn't worry about it because I knew I was just going to come home and go back to my usual way of eating, which is a much, much sadder version in comparison to eating in Italy, basically.Christina: Right, right.Cadence: But I want to give people that kind of confidence, wisdom, that like you can go to a party and go bananas if you want. And then you just go back to the way that you normally take care of yourself and it just doesn't matter. And I want to really relieve people of that anxiety and guilt and you know. A bigger question which we like can't even address here is like, if this holiday period is turning into some kind of spiral for you where you are really feeling that you're doing a lot of imbibing in a way that doesn't feel good, but is kind of this release and now you kind of can't stop and that's like a whole other thing to address you know and that is probably more about like restricted behavior at other times and shame and messaging that you're having. But just the general person who's like freaked out because their friend brought cookies over for them and left them at their house and they're like well, now I'm gonna eat that whole plate of cookies. Yeah, you are, and then they'll be gone and then there won't be another plate of cookies and you'll just go back to your normal life and it's just like, it's really okay.Christina: Right, right. I mean, I think it's really about this idea of, and this is from a question that someone asked about, like, what helps you with food fear? Like, i.e. eating bad foods, bad things will happen if I eat X food, etc. I think so much of it is around just that boogeyman of that bad thing that's going to happen that remains undetermined, undefined, nonspecific. I think fear grows and thrives in non-specificity.Cadence: When we don't really know what we're talking about, you're so much more susceptible to someone saying that nut oils are destroying your digestion. And you're like, I guess? I don't really understand what digestion is actually!Christina: Right, right, right.Cadence: Like if you were to be like, tell me what digestion means. What does that actually mean? What happens when we swallow a piece of food and what happens? Where does it go? I don't think many people could really do that.Christina: “I don't know, but it's bad.”Cadence: Yeah, exactly. “But it's perilous at every stage!”Christina: I know we have to kind of wind it down a little bit, but I wanted to make sure that we talked about all the things we wanted to talk about.Cadence: Yeah, I can actually go for another 15 minutes if we want to answer some specific questions.Christina: Oh, nice. Okay. Well, I wanted to make sure we talked a little bit about this behemoth topic of handling other people's diet talk, because there were quite a few questions around that. I enjoyed one question that was, “When people around you talk dieting do you dissociate, push back, or a secret third thing?” I love a secret third thing joke. But you know, a lot of like how to deal with parents who are passing on harmful diet culture rhetoric to kids or moms who have disordered eating who always want to talk about it, that kind of thing.Cadence: I think it's super hard because I notice when it happens around me, a lot of people say things where it's like so quick and it's not the movies, I'm not someone who could just right away like fires off a zinger, you know.Christina: You mean like in response?Cadence: Yeah. In reality, I'm really taken aback. I'm just like, oh my god, that's where your headspace is right now? I thought we were just having sushi together. Like, what? And I found recently, we were out with couple friends of ours that, as couple friends tend to go, we're not like super best friends, super intimate friends with them. And the woman in the group at some point was like, oh, I just like to, we went to dim sum, which I love to do. And I didn't realize that she'd never really experienced the whole experience. If people don't know what dim sum is, you go to these cavernous restaurants in, at least in New York, this is my experience. And they have carts that go around with all these amazing dumplings and whatever you want. Endless options. Little cakes, little this and that. And there are little plates with two to four to six little items on there.Christina: The pinnacle of small plates eating, truly.Cadence: Yeah, seriously, yeah. And the whole point is you go with a group of people and then there's just so much food on the table and everyone's trying things and it's super fun, it's just like such a fun experience. And she kind of was like, slowing down and I was like I want to order another one of the shrimp noodle things, those are my favorite, and she was like, “Oh I think I'm done, I really just like to taste different things or something. Like basically she was trying to say like she doesn't eat a lot, she just like, bites things? It was a nonsensical statement. And I didn't have a response. I think what I often do is model my own comfort, you know?Christina: Well, because like, what are you going to say to that?Cadence: Exactly. But I want to address this person's question in that sometimes people literally say, “oh, I'm not going to eat that.” “I'm trying to be good” or “I'm cutting out X, Y, Z.” And that's easier to be like, “oh, I don't really engage with food like that.” Like, I don't really believe in that. Anyway, moving on. Or just be like, hope that works for you! Moving on. But I think a lot of times people say things in a more subtle way. Like, “I just like to take bites” or like, you know, some weird subtle thing that is kind of a, yeah, it's a diet. It's a restrictive diet-y way of shading what's happening. And in those situations, I try to just be like, “Well, I like to eat until I'm done eating. That's what I like to do. So I'm going to order my shrimp noodles and I'm going to eat them.” And I'm not going to make a big show of it. And I'm not going to go, “Oh, I ate so much” and I'm not going to go like, “No dinner for me tonight,” you know? I'm literally just going to eat my damn food and move on and hope that you'll notice that that seems like a more relaxed way of being.Christina: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's tricky. I don't really know. I'm trying to think about what I do. I feel like I want to think more about how to approach situations like this, because as it stands right now, often it's just, as you mentioned, it's so quick that I don't really have time to process what I'm hearing, much less a response. Also, I think it gets really tricky because of autonomy and like, this is your prerogative and this is your body and your experience and who am I toCadence: I have this client who has parents that are really bonkers with this stuff, they're always on diets and it's very, very hard for her to go visit them. I think when it's something like that, where it's an intimate relation, it's a parent, it's a partner, it's a super close friend that you see a lot that you do things with. I think you can literally make a boundary and just say, “Hey, you know, I'm glad like whatever, that's how you do stuff. I'm really not in that.” I think there's enough media around diet culture that most people understand that some people are really against dieting. And you can just be like, “I don't want to hear that kind of stuff. It's actually upsetting for me or it's stressful for me.” Like, you know, I think that's fair and still can respect, they can do what they want. And I think it's also okay to internally judge and just be like, it doesn't work. Whatever they're doing is not great. It's not positive. So like, you don't have to share space with it. You just don't. You can just be like, your mom that's cutting out all dairy and wheat and going on weird crash diets every six weeks, it's not good. You don't have to kind of enable that by letting them blabber on about it. You can just be like mom, is there someone else that you can share this with because I actually find it stressful and I'd rather we talked about something else.Christina: Yeah I agree. I do think in certain relationships that can be a good strategy for sure.Cadence: Virginia Sole-Smith had something in a [podcast] episode that she had or something. I don't know if it's her quote or someone else, but she, I learned it off of her stuff. If someone literally, if you're at a buffet and someone, whoever it is, is like, “Oh, I'm being bad” or whatever, that kind of thing, or like, “we're all dieting tomorrow”. Her response, which I have memorized so that I can throw it out if I'm ever in that situation, is just to say, “Oh, it's too bad how diet culture makes us feel like we have to earn our food” or whatever the situation is. “It's too bad diet culture makes us feel like certain foods are good or bad.” Because it really puts it on them, like, we already agree, right? It's really too bad, right? It forces them to…it will probably make them be quiet, basically.Christina: I mean, that's clever. I like that a lot. I also think that it does a good job of framing it as like, we are all on the same side of being affected by this systemic issue.Cadence: Yeah.Christina: We might not hold the same beliefs or philosophies, but we are both subject to the same messaging that is objectively harmful. And I think even people who engage in those behaviors often are aware, as we've talked about in this episode already, that like, this is not, you know, this is not it. It's like, all you know is what you don't do.Cadence: Exactly. Exactly. It's a little opening door of like, there's a little empathy in there that possibly could spark a conversation, or not, but it might just give them a little something to think about, too. if you care, you know, to kind of leave them with that, that they might be like, right.Christina: Yeah. That's a good one. I'm going to pocket that one for my own life.Cadence: I really liked this question: How do you figure out how to build a nutrition plan without a nutritionist? I love this question because, kind of to your point earlier about the hierarchy of health, we tend to also outsource our health and our judgment, you know, like positive judgment about what we need to like an authority figure, you know?Christina: Right. Like you tell me what is good or bad for me.Cadence: Yeah. The doctor told me I need to do this or that so I guess I do. We really love when people tell us what if we're wrong like we just love all that. And similarly I think there can be kind of like lore that the only way to be healthy is to have an authority figure tell you what to do, which is also why the marketing works for like the one that you fell down. It seems really authoritative right, it was like “I have all the answers” and you're like “Great!”Christina: I'm like, “Great, I love answers.”Cadence: Yeah, exactly. And also I want to address that we are not nutritionists, and that's intentional. Like I actually at one point considered getting a nutritional degree.Christina: Same.Cadence: And then I realized that it was just really not, again, how I wanted to engage with food. I think that we have too much over focus on grams of protein and how much carbohydrates and all these kinds of things, people are very worried about that. And it's kind of missing the forest for the trees. Really, if you can just, you know, eat a variety of foods regularly, consistently, and eat regularly. Most people really need to eat more, which always like blows peoples' minds. Even if people consider themselves overweight, usually they're skipping a bunch of meals. There's just like a real lack of consistency. And if you look at any living animal, we both have pets. People have pets out there. Generally, you feed your pets very consistently. And that keeps them healthy. It keeps their weight balanced. It's part of caring for them, right? You don't forget to feed them for a day or just feed them once and then some little snacks of theirs and then be like, whatever, you'll have dinner tomorrow. But we do that to ourselves, which blows my mind. Or I always tell people, if someone was like, could you babysit my eight-year-old, you wouldn't be like, sure, I'm going to feed them nothing but coffee until 1, then we're going to get like a bag of chips, and then I'll make them a sandwich around 4. Then we'll eat some leftovers at 11:30 at night. And then a bottle of wine. Your friend would be like, I'm never speaking to you again. You would be like oh, I'm gonna make them breakfast, and I'm gonna ask them later if they need a snack, and I'm gonna make sure they drink some water, and I'm gonna you know. But for ourselves we're just like, oh yeah, what I just said was totally fine and I'm gonna do that for 15 years. So I think building a nutrition plan without a nutritionist is literally just like what we talked about in the beginning, examining what works for your lifestyle and figuring out, is there a need? Do you literally eat no fruits and vegetables? Well, those are really helpful so let's try and get those in. But maybe you eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Maybe you're overanalyzing your diet. And it's really just like, I've definitely had people in the course that I'm like, we had someone in the course who comes from a cooking restaurant family. Oh my god, her meals were great. She was like, variety, all the things, balance, blah, blah, blah. I had no problems with what she was eating. I was just like, this is great. You eat all kinds of stuff. You're getting everything you need.Christina: And more importantly, she didn't really have problems with what she was eating, right?Cadence: Exactly.Christina: If this is the person you're thinking about, her predominant concern was, “Why don't I look the way that I think eating this way should make me look?”Cadence: Exactly. Exactly.Christina: Which is a totally different, like…we're just not having the same conversation anymore.Cadence: And that's huge. And that's the kind of thing that we can talk about in the group, you get individual sessions with me. So that's like exactly what we would talk about in an individual session. I would go, actually, everything you eat looks great, balanced. You're eating regularly, you're not starving in the middle of the day. Like everything's great. What's the problem? “Well, how come X, Y, Z?” And I'd be like, all right, let's talk about body types. Let's talk about other things, movement, like whatever. That might be what that person gets out of that course.Christina: Yeah.Cadence: And then joining kettlebell classes and Run Club and like addressing that aspect of her life instead. Not intentionally to lose weight, but really just to connect to her body in a different way and develop a different perspective about her body.Christina: Yeah we're really working them up to that incendiary “you'll just never be skinny” viral video, which, for those who don't know, I would love if you could just explain that one because that's probably the most incendiary thing that you've ever published.Cadence: I'm going to post it again towards the end of January.Christina: It's the perfect time for it, really.Cadence: And it came actually, that story about the cookies that I used that was like from a real client and I had a conversation with this client who was like tortured about these cookies that her friend brought over. And she has the coolest life. She's like TV-adjacent in LA and her friend brought her to this amazing cooking show competition thing and so they like brought home boxes from all these contestants.Christina: Amazing.Cadence: And I was like, this sounds amazing. Like best weekend ever. And she was like, yeah, but now I have this box of cookies here. And I was like, please explain the problem. And then she was like, well, I'm going to eat them. And I was like, yeah…and then? And so I made this Reel, like almost just based off of that conversation where I was just basically like, our perception of ourselves, the less punchy version is that our perception of ourselves that somehow we're supposed to dramatically look different from the way that we look today is for 99% of us just not true. You're never going to be skinny. Very few people are skinny, this idea of skinny. For my body to be skinny, I would have to be very ill. I have had a naturally muscular body always. There's a picture that I remember from when I was a little kid on a swing set with my arms like this, you know, like holding the swing set ropes with my little delts and biceps. I wasn't even doing sports, that's just my body. My mom can do 10 pushups and she never lifted weights. Like that's, you know, that's just like my genes, you know? So, we have this kind of idea maybe that gets developed when we're teenagers or something that somehow I'm gonna one day be skinny and that this cookie that I'm eating today or my missed workout that's why I'm not I'm not. You know all these little things but it's really like, let's be reasonable about what our body actually is. What does our family look like? What's reasonable for our lifestyle? Of course, Instagram is full of people who've dramatically changed their bodies. Dramatically. They also spend almost like a side job doing that.Christina: Which is my other favorite Cadence-ism about that being a hobby. Or how do you phrase it? It's just like, body modification is a hobby. The same thing as any other kind of hobby that you invest time and resources and dedicate to.Cadence: The six-pack with everything defined. That's body modification. It's like a kink that they're interested in. It's the same as someone whose face is covered in piercings, who has tattoos head to toe. You know there are plenty of people out there who are really invested in the appearance of their body as this hobby as like a fetish almost and I would really put I don't think bodybuilders would disagree with me. They're so interested in how can I morph my body, can I get really big, can I lose all my body fat. I follow a guy who regularly posts when he was just this like enormous superhero body and now he's still super muscular but he's like I don't train like that anymore, I'm not competing anymore, it's like not my interest. I'm like a dad now. He's just like I don't have the time to do that anymore. That's like I'm restoring a car in the driveway. It's like I'm still interested in my body and what it can do and looking in a certain way, but I don't have the time, you know, he's like, i'm in a relationship, like my life has more stuff going on than when I was likeChristina: Yeah and I think it's the difference between thinking about it that way versus thinking about it as a like, well if only the stars aligned and all these factors lined up and then yeah, this would happen, this kind of body would happen, and it's like, no.Cadence: Yeah. If only you signed up for the Instagram ad FODMAP thing, in a year you would be like, tiny Christina. No, literally not true. I always am shocked how tall you are. It's just not going to happen.Christina: Speaking of that, and then I will speak of it no more, I saved that low-FODMAP sponcon ad just for the purposes of referring to it for this conversation, which I immediately regretted because now guess what I'm getting is just only other versions of that ad, which I'm sure will continue on through the new year.Cadence: Yeah, exactly.Christina: But what can I say? I'm only human. Well I don't know, I feel like that's kind of a lovely place to wrap our thoughts for this part one. And we will be doing a part two at the beginning of, well this is coming out at the beginning of January, we're going to do another one that comes out at the beginning of February where we'll again be soliciting questions on the topic of I think we decided that was going to be around building sustainability and this idea of like, okay, like it's the end of January and whatever thing you decided you were going to do, like the low FODMAP meal plan delivery system got boring within two weeks, shocker, now what? And so I'm really looking forward to, I see that as a conversation around, okay, we know the “don'ts” column. How do we start filling the “do's” column?Cadence: Yeah, exactly. Very cool. Well thank you so much.Christina: Thank you. Happy new year. This is technically the last day of 2024, though you'll be seeing it in 2025.Cadence: Exactly. Thank you so much.Christina: Thank you.Busy Body Podcast is produced by Brad Parsons at Train Sound StudioMusic is written by Robert Bryn, performed by the Wild YaksIllustrations and design by Jackie Mendez at Aesthetics_Frames and Me!

Examples of the 121 Exclusion which showcase how small changes, can lead to huge tax impacts. In this episode of 'Real Estate is Taxing,' host Natalie Kolodij breaks down the intricacies of the 121 exclusion, which allows homeowners to exclude a significant amount of capital gains on the sale of their primary residence. . She details various scenarios to highlight how specific timelines and conditions—such as rental periods, military duty, and temporary absences—affect eligibility for the exclusion. By understanding these nuances, listeners can avoid costly tax errors and optimize their exclusion benefits.IG: @RE_Tax_Strategist Transcript [00:00:00] Welcome to Real Estate is Taxing, where we talk about all things real estate tax and break down complex concepts into understandable, entertaining tax topics. My name is Natalie Kolodij I'm your host, and I am so excited that you've decided to join me.[00:00:23] Have you ever pulled into the McDonald's drive through at 10 40 in the morning on a Sunday to get McDonald's breakfast? Only to find out the location near your house stopped serving breakfast at 10 30, you just missed it. And you were so sure you had till 11 o'clock to get that. Amazing egg McMuffin. [00:00:45] You've been thinking about all week. Imagine that feeling times a thousand or more. That's what today's episode is about. And the best way I could think of. To describe the [00:01:00] impact of when someone thinks they are going to qualify. For the full 1 21 exclusion and have up to a half million dollars tax free. Only to find out that the timing or the way they executed it fell a little bit short. On today's episode. I'm going to walk you guys through several different scenarios of the potential application of the 1 21 exclusion. And really point out the way a few key, little bitty timing impacts. Can lead to either a partial exclusion or in some cases, no exclusion at all. When this comes up, it is obviously something that people are pretty upset to find out. So hopefully hearing this episode ahead of time will prevent a few people from living through that experience. [00:02:00] [00:02:00] And maybe this episode will also remind you to check the cutoff time for your egg McMuffin this weekend. [00:02:06] You are the guardian of your own destiny. So let's get into things, manifest it, and to make sure we are not missing these crucial timing cutoffs. [00:02:16] [00:02:16] If you knew me, you know, the 1 21 exclusion is a code section that I can talk about for hours and hours and hours, there is so much unique complexity to it. For today's episode, we are just going to break it down into a few simplistic parts. We're taking this at a thousand foot view. So that you can recognize the reason why these situations we're going to walk through will or will not work. [00:02:43] And you'll be able to see how these small timing differences can create a huge difference in the taxable outcome. The 1 21 exclusion. Allows a taxpayer to exclude up to [00:03:00] $250,000 of gain or 500,000 if married. On the sale of their primary home, as long as they have owned and occupied it for two out of the most recent five years. [00:03:13] The first nuance to break out. That will relate to today's episode. Is those two out of five years are actually a calculation to the literal day. So two years is actually 730 days. Five years is going to be 1,825 days. For simplicity, we're ignoring leap years. So it is a literal to the day calculation. That's why a slight misjudgment on when you should move or sell, et cetera. Can have a huge impact. The next piece to be aware of for today's episode is something called non-qualified use. In a nutshell, any time when [00:04:00] that primary home. Is used for something other than being a primary home. Those years are considered. [00:04:06] Non-qualified use. And the gain related proportionately to those years. Typically can't be excluded under the 1 21 exclusion. Now this code provision didn't come into play until 2009. So any time of non-qualified use before that. Doesn't count does not come into play here. And there are also three key exclusions. To what is considered non-qualified use. The first one would be any rental use. That occurs after. The taxpayer's most recent use of the home as a primary residence. The second exclusion. Is if someone is active duty military. They can have potentially up to a 10 year gap. Due to [00:05:00] being active duty. Where that time, where the home is rented or not being used as a primary home. That does not count as non-qualified use. And the final exclusion. Is that a taxpayer can have up to a two year temporary absence. That can be disqualified from being non-qualified use. [00:05:21] So if there's a temporary absence of. Two years or less. Due to a health circumstance or a job related change or some kind of major unforeseen circumstance. That two year or less window also does not count against the calculation for the gain as non-qualified use. [00:05:44] Now that you are all filled in on the key items we need for today's episode. Let's run through these examples. In all of the examples I am going to walk through. We are assuming that the taxpayer [00:06:00] originally buys this property to be a primary residence the day they buy it, it is for the purpose of moving in and living in this house. So example one. Taxpayer purchases, the primary home. They own and occupy it for 730 days. [00:06:21] And then. They decide to sell the residence. They have occupied it and owned it for two years or more. That's 730 day mark. So in this scenario, they would qualify for their full amount of the 1 21 exclusion. [00:06:37] Situation too. The taxpayer purchases, a primary home. They own and occupy it for 720 days. And then they go to sell the home. Because they were shy of that 730 day mark. The amount of exclusion they qualify for is [00:07:00] going to be $0. That two year minimum. Is required unless there's an unforeseen circumstance. We're not getting into that in today's episode. So if they just decided to sell because they wanted to, there was no other reason. If they have only lived in it for that 720 days. They don't get any part of an exclusion. [00:07:26] There's no rounding. If they have only met that 720 day mark. Their entire gain is going to be taxable. There will be no 1 21 exclusion. [00:07:39] So are you starting to see why these slight differences in a calculation can have a huge impact? Let's get into a few more tricky circumstances. In the next example. Let's say the taxpayer purchases, a primary home. They own and occupy it for [00:08:00] 750 days. They then move out and rent it for 1000 days. That's 750 days gets them that two year minimum of at least seven 30. And as long as they rent it for no more than three years. They don't have any non-qualified use and they still have their full 1 21 exclusion. Three years would be 1095 days. So in this example, because the taxpayer did occupy for the minimum of 730 days. And then they did not rent it for any more than three years or 1095 days. They can sell the home at the end of this and receive their full 1 21 exclusion. The only thing that will be taxable. Is, they will have, do have payback of the depreciation they took while it was a rental. [00:08:53] There's going to be unrecaptured 1250 depreciation or some depreciation recapture. But otherwise. [00:09:00] That circumstance allows for a full 1 21 exclusion. The fact that it was ...

In this week's episode of the podcast, I am excited to welcome my longtime drinking buddy, Megan, whose influence played a pivotal role in my first ever podcast. Together, we offer listeners an update on Megan's life, specifically her marriage, providing a candid glimpse into the complexities and challenges of relationships. Reflecting on our shared experiences together, we delve into the theme of alcohol and its impact on our lives, candidly discussing the times when drinking led to less-than-ideal outcomes during our hangouts including ordering a Pussy Mcmuffin at Mcdonalds. Through humorous anecdotes and introspective moments, we explore the fine line between fun and excess, shedding light on the reality and its occasional pitfalls. Furthermore, Megan and I dive into a thought-provoking discussion surrounding the new dark biography on Nickelodeon titled "Quiet on the Set," delving into the unsettling revelations surrounding our childhood heroes from the 90s. We navigate the harsness between the nostalgic fondness we once held for these figures and the unsettling truths that have come to light through scandals and controversies. With a blend of nostalgia and critical analysis, ultimately reflecting on the broader cultural shifts and reckonings that have reshaped our perceptions of the past.

Live from Studio G—in the heart of what's left of this great country—I'm Steve Gruber, fighting for you every day from the foxhole of freedom to defend what freedoms we have left—Thank you for being here—this is the Steve Gruber Show—   AND Here are 3 big things you need to know this hour—   Number One— The city of Dearborn and its Mayor are outraged after it was tagged as the “Jihad Capital” of America by the Wall Street Journal over the weekend—and they say it means they are in danger—   Number Two— Would you pay $7.29 for an egg McMuffin—just an egg McMuffin? How about $18 for a Big Mac value meal? Yeah welcome to Bidenomics and the damage its doing to just about everything—   Number Three— I realize that you are getting tired of hearing about the border—BUT honestly friends—it is THE ONLY story that matters right now—and everything else is just noise—   For years nations around the Western world have been overrun by migrants from all kinds of third world countries—and it has proven to be destructive—and right now—no matter what kind of leftist propaganda and garbage they are trying to peddle—the wide-open southern border is an existential threat to the future of this country—   That is the simple fact—and every single day the border remains open—more Americans will die—   Some will be poisoned by illegal drugs that pour over the border like fentanyl—others will be killed by violent gang members—other by illegals driving drunk—and it happens every single day in America—and instead of fixing the problems—dishonest lawmakers on both sides of the aisle went into secret negotiations for the past 4 months—only to deliver the worst possible bill I think we could have seen—   Here is what it does in part: It allows 5,000 illegals a day to come into the country before anything has to be done—   It gives work permits to every single illegal that breaks the law and comes in—   It creates another 50,000 green cards every month—   Oh, and did I mention that out of $118 Billion dollars in the bill—only $20 billion is actually to secure the border? Yeah, more than half is headed to Ukraine—and let me tell you—they may call it a bi-partisan bill—BUT the American people are rejecting it as a Bi-partisan middle finger to every person in the middle class and beyond—   It is incomprehensibly stupid—and irresponsible and as you can imagine—everyone has an opinion—   One of the main architects of this blivit—and by the way a blivit according to my dad—was ten pounds of crap in a 5 pound bag—anyway—one of the main architects of this blivit is Republican Senator James Lankford of Oklahoma—and he was defending this horrible legislation—by attacking Elon Musk who had the nerve to point out—just how bad it really is—   Bite #10   One of the other feckless and dishonest America hating weasels that was crafting this trash in secret over the past several months is the ever greasy and slippery Chuck Schumer, the Democrat majority leader from New York—who also did his best to defend the indefensible—while smearing others—   Bite #1   No Chuck, you didn't rise to the occasion—you called this a border bill while packing up more than half of it for the wildly corrupt regime in Ukraine—claiming that somehow—their borders and their nation are more important than our own—and if we keep dumping in truckloads of cash—they will beat the Russian army—again—they will not beat the Russian army—BUT Zelensky will pocket millions if not billions of dollars on his way to an opulent exile somewhere on the beach—after he fleeces the cash from the blatantly corrupt government in Kyiv—   And the cries are now coming from staunch Democrats and adherents of terrible policies that are finally saying—what the hell is going on and what are you doing?   One of the places that its really getting hard to sell the open border is the city of New York—where at least 32 mega centers have been built to house the illegals—in giant wall tent facilities—and that is showing no sign of getting any better—   Bite #11   I think Senator Murphy, who was listening to that beat down is still picking his jock up off the floor—   I mean I don't think he expected Al Sharpton to hammer him with the truth about this incredibly dangerous policy of opening the border for anyone and everyone to come in—   And the problems of dealing with the flood of illegals in need of food, shelter and a plan—has spread all the way across the nation—and its impacting every major city in America—but some are more prepared to say something intelligent than others about the full blown crisis—   Bite #12   Ummmm, yeah—he cannot get to the border because his kids are black? That is one for the ages—and I must again apologize to Lori Lightfoot, because I called her the worst Mayor in the history of Chicago—and look she isn't even close to as bad as this moron—I mean, wow!   And the whole idea—that this ‘dead on arrival' border bill is somehow good because its bi-partisan is flat out stupid—   I am not going to sit here and pat people on the back because they cobbled something together in secret and tell me how great it is—and, I always love this one: its better than nothing—No its not—   Its being rejected by the American people for a reason—its crap and everyone knows it—and Mitch McConnell, James Lankford, Chuck Schumer, Dick Durbin and all the other globalist bastards can take that bill and stick it—we are not going along with this anymore—   Bite #3   People like Frank deserve better—the mom that buried her son this week after he overdosed on fentanyl deserves better—the father killed by a drunk driver that was here illegally deserved better and so did his family—   No more!    We demand real action and real results -NOW on the border—we are not going to accept half measures, half assed efforts and we are not going to be placated—   It seems the only thing they are not short on right now in Washington is excuses—   And it doesn't have to be this way—

McDonald's reported third quarter results Monday morning, including an 11% increase in global systemwide sales, and 8.1% increase in U.S. comp sales. In a release, the company notes domestic comp sales benefited from a strong average check growth driven by menu price increases, as well as restaurant-level execution, effective marketing campaigns, and continued digital and delivery growth.Those menu price increases are up just over 10% for the full year, CFO Ian Borden said during the earnings call, adding that he expects pricing to come down now that inflation is starting to cool. That said, the chain is experiencing some traffic pressures, particularly among lower-income consumers - $45,000 and below.Value was a major theme on the call, with executives pointing to value promotions from various markets, such as a McMuffin/coffee deal in Canada that drove strong performance during the breakfast daypart, Germany's McSmart menu that offers smaller and more affordable meal options, and the $1, $2, $3 Dollar Menu in the U.S. Kempczinski said the company is not seeing changes “in terms of customer acceptance on pricing.”

EPISODE TRANSCRIPTION 00:00 ALAN FREDENDALL Good morning, PT on ICE Daily Show. Happy Thursday morning. Hope your day is off to a great start so far. My name is Alan. Happy to be your host today. Currently, I have the pleasure of serving as Chief Operating Officer. I'm a faculty member in our fitness athlete division. We're here on Leadership Thursday. We talk all things practice, management, ownership, small business, leadership, that sort of thing. Leadership Thursday means it is also Gut Check Thursday. Gut Check Thursday this week is a workout I actually did this past Monday. It is 9, 15, 21 calories on a rowing machine, power snatches with a barbell, 75 pounds for gentlemen, 55 pounds for ladies, and pull ups. Ascending reps game automatically. You should proceed with caution as you get more tired. The reps go up, something we don't like to see too often. Also very redundant in this workout on pulling and grip, right? Pulling on the rower, you have grip on the barbell, and then you have grip and pulling up on the pull-up bar. So it gets redundant, gets really grippy, even with that light barbell. That barbell should be so light you could do all of those rounds unbroken if you really needed to. Maybe one break in the round of 15, maybe one or two breaks in the round of 21. Definitely should be aiming to get that workout done under or around the 10-minute mark. I did that, rested three minutes, and then did 9, 12, 15, rested three minutes, and did 6, 9, 12. I don't recommend doing the extra two rounds. Just stick with the 9, 15, 21. That's plenty of fitness for the day. Courses coming your way from us here at IEFCE. I want to highlight our Extremity Management division led by Lindsay Huey, Mark Gallant, and Cody Gingrich, the newest lead faculty to join the Extremity Management team. You can catch those three out on the road this fall. A couple of different courses coming your way. September 9th and 10th, Mark will be down in Amarillo, Texas. Lindsay will be out in Torrington, Wyoming. The next weekend, September 16th and 17th, Mark will be on the road in Cincinnati, Ohio. The weekend after that, Lindsay will be on the road September 23rd and 24th in Twin Falls, Idaho. The first weekend in October, the 7th and 8th, Lindsay will be up in Ridgefield, Connecticut, and Mark will be in Rochester, Minnesota. November 11th and 12th, Mark will be down in Woodstock, Georgia, which is north of Atlanta, kind of out in the suburbs. The weekend of November 18th and 19th, Mark will again be on the road, this time in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. That's a little bit southeast of Nashville. Cody's first weekend as a lead faculty in the division will be the weekend of December 2nd and 3rd. That'll be out in Newark, California. That's the Bay Area, the Fremont area. And then December 9th and 10th, the last chance to catch extremity management for the year will be in Fort Collins, Colorado with Lindsay. So that's what's coming your way from the extremity division. 03:21 GROWING & SCALING YOUR PRACTICE Today we're going to be talking about hiring from the viewpoint of growing and scaling your practice. And I want to highlight the McDonald's story. So I want to talk about kind of what's always in our mind when we're thinking about growing our team, which is that little voice in the back of our head that says, geez, I hope the person that I hire is mostly like me, right? When we think about growing our team, we're often thinking about how to basically mirror or replicate ourselves. And while that's not 100% possible, that is the goal as we grow and scale. That what we're really talking about when we're bringing new people on the team, we're growing our current practice. We're thinking about maybe even a second location. We're thinking about maintaining our standards of how we run our business, of how we practice physical therapy and preserving our company's culture. So we're going to talk about the who, the what and the how. The who today is going to be McDonald's. Yes, McDonald's, the Golden Arches, the fast food company. The what is going to be talking about how they grow and scale their businesses. And the how is going to be the foundational training that every member of the team has, how that relates to your team as a physical therapist growing your practice and how shared belief systems are really important. So as a company grows, those things tend to get diluted over time. Over multiple generations of leaders and employees, teammates, whatever you want to call the folks who work with you. As we tend to get many generations deep, we noticed a subtle decline in quality and culture of when you first went to the business, when it was a single owner operator, you knew the owner. You knew how things went. You had a relationship with that person. And maybe when you come back to that business, our business in this case being physical therapy, maybe you can't see that provider before. Maybe their schedule is full and they offer to have you see another provider. As the customer is the end user, how do we know that that person is good as the first person? And how do we know that the 10th person is as good as the third person? And so on and so forth. And unfortunately, what we see happen is companies tend to grow, especially as they tend to grow to new locations and maybe even start to franchise. We see that that stuff just gets diluted over and over again until the current business that we are going to no longer resembles the initial encounter with that business. Maybe even to the point that as the customer is the end user, we decide not to give that business our money anymore. So how do we avoid that? How do we avoid the customer coming to that conclusion? 07:26 THE WHO: MCDONALD'S Well, we need to start with the who. We need to start with McDonald's. If you're not familiar with McDonald's, we'll talk about that and we'll talk about how they grew and really the foundations that allow them to grow there. So love or hate them. Everybody has their thought immediately in their mind, their knee-jerk reaction about McDonald's, but they certainly know how to run a business. They know how to deliver a consistent product. That product, at least in my personal opinion, may be quite mediocre. But dang, when you go to McDonald's in Texas or McDonald's in Michigan or McDonald's in Seattle, it doesn't matter. McDonald's in Hong Kong, it is maybe mediocre, but it's consistently mediocre, right? A McDonald's hamburger in Texas tastes the same way as a McDonald's hamburger in New York and the fries are the same and the experience of purchasing from McDonald's is largely the same as well. So they know how to deliver a consistent product and we want to figure out how they do that. They also certainly know how to grow. McDonald's has been in business for 83 years, almost 100 years of continuous business. We've talked here on Leadership Thursday before about how many businesses don't make it to the one-year mark, to the five-year mark, that about the 10-year mark, 75% of all businesses are gone. They have gone out of business before they reach the 10-year mark. So to have been in business almost 100 years continuously is quite impressive. They are the largest restaurant business in human history. They have $24 billion a year in gross revenue. Now that is an amount of money that can be hard to conceptualize. Let me break it down for you. If you haven't heard of ATI Physical Therapy, they are the largest chain of physical therapy clinics in the world. They only grow $600 million a year in annual gross revenue. So any town that is big enough to have a McDonald's, a Walmart, probably also has an ATI Physical Therapy for reference. Nonetheless, McDonald's is almost 40 times larger. They are present in 120 of the 195 countries on the planet, and they are the fourth largest employer in human history. Of the largest employer on the planet currently is Walmart. The second is the Chinese Government Railroad. The third is the Chinese Government Police Service, and the fourth is McDonald's. So of the jobs that you could currently get, you can't go work for the Chinese Government Railroad or police service. You can't just go drop an application and start. We're talking about the second largest American-based employer on the planet. Now if you haven't seen the movie The Founder, I highly recommend you watch that movie. It's one of my most favorite movies. Every time I watch it, I take something away from it. Came out in 2016, and it's really kind of the tale of the start of McDonald's and the growth of McDonald's across the country and eventually the world. 11:27 THE WHAT: SUCCESSFUL GROWTH So that's the what we're going to talk about today. We're going to talk about the franchising of the McDonald's Corporation. Amazing movie. Nick Offerman and John Carroll Lynch play the McDonald's brothers who formed the first McDonald's out in California many, many, many, many years ago. And Michael Keaton does a great job playing Ray Kroc, the guy who finds the McDonald's brothers and becomes the person that franchises McDonald's into the business that it is today. So the original McDonald's started out in San Bernardino, California. It was a one-location restaurant run by the McDonald's brothers. They had a very systematic way of approaching a business. They practiced and trained and redesigned the restaurant again and again and again to optimize efficiency, to basically make burgers and fries and shakes as fast as possible in the almost pre-drive-through era of you had to drive to McDonald's and walk up to the window and order your food. And they created a wonderful, flourishing business that Ray Kroc stumbled upon. He actually was selling a machine that could make six milkshakes at once. And he was hand delivering it to the McDonald's brothers out in California when he watched just how busy their restaurant was all day long and decided this, these guys are onto something. If we could take this business and multiply it, we could really make a lot of money. So those brothers practiced. They had their employees practice work, right? They trained almost military style of running and operating their business. And they did so with a systematic approach, a fundamental approach to how to cook and serve food in a high quality, yes, but also a consistent and efficient manner. And it was built upon a common foundation of training and also of shared values of we want to deliver a high quality product, but we want to do it efficiently. People don't want to sit and wait 30 minutes for a hamburger. They want to be able to walk up to this window and a couple of minutes, get their food, pay and be on their way. Right. The person that's on lunch break or grabbing a bite to eat after work or before work or whatever, walk up, grab your food, go again in the pre drive through area, definitely the pre door dash era of delivering a high quality product. Very, very fast. So Ray Kroc stumbled upon these guys and started to franchise it. Initially did not go the right way. And I think it's important to know that it did not start off in an amazing way that immediately started cheapening ingredients, started using premixed milkshakes instead of actual milk in the milkshakes and initially started with a model that had really minimal control over new locations and leaders. And early on, and you'll see this if you watch the movie, McDonald's all over the country was completely random and different as far as what you might expect. You might find a McDonald's in Illinois that sold hamburgers and french fries and milkshakes, but you might go to a McDonald's in Wisconsin and find barbecue food. You might go to a McDonald's in St. Louis and find them selling tacos. So they kind of had a rocky start that they got away from their foundations. They no longer kept that regimented training, that regimented shared value systems. But I'll tell you the tale of how they turned it around. One of the cooks that worked at one of the original McDonald's, his name was Fred Turner In 1961, he created a training system called what is now known as Hamburg University of saying, hey, this is getting crazy. Every location that the customer goes to, they might be serving completely different food. There may be a completely different experience. They might be dirty at one location, unbelievably clean at the next, a different food just all over the place with consistency and quality. We have to fix this. And that kind of evolved with Fred Turner working alongside Ray Kroc into forming now what is known as the present day McDonald's, which again, the food may not be the highest quality, it might not taste the best, but darn it, it is consistent. And that is really the values that McDonald's presents today. Consistency and simplicity and uniformity with a goal and a shared belief system of quality, service and cleanliness. So they formed this university back in the 60s, Hamburg University. They now have locations in eight countries. They started in 1961. That guy, Fred Turner, who was just a cook, worked his way up and eventually became the CEO of McDonald's for 20 years and really kind of led the global expansion of McDonald's across the planet onto every street corner in America, into 120 countries across the planet. Down to really specific stuff. He was really insistent that fries had to be cut 0.28 inches thick, that one pound of beef should make exactly 10 1.6 ounce patties, so on and so forth. Consistency, the ability to replicate that business across not only shifts at the same location, but at every location across the town, across the state, across the country and eventually across the planet. So that is the who, that is the what. 13:59 THE HOW: SHARED TRAINING & BELIEFS Now we need to talk about how, how did they get there? Again, they had a rocky start, but how they arrived at where they're at now, again, one of the largest, most successful businesses in the history of our species. How did they get there? They get there these days by being very, very selective that each addition to their team is of similar quality to the rest of the team, that they have a shared belief system and that they all go through the same foundational training of when you are maybe a line cook or fry cook or you work the drive through McDonald's. Yes, you are just an hourly wage employee, but once you are maybe going to get promoted when the regional manager, when the owner decides your management material, you go to Hamburger University. If you are thinking about starting a McDonald's franchise, you also go to Hamburger University. They are very selective in who goes to Hamburger University. Only 1% of the people who apply get accepted. And the goal of Hamburger University is to teach managers and owners how to run a McDonald's to the McDonald's standard. Again, we have that common shared training foundation. We are hiring people with a shared common belief system. We are allowing the business to grow and scale without the end user, the customer being really able to notice any change in quality. McDonald's is doing it right. If you leave your house at 6 a.m. and you have a 12 hour road trip and you grab a coffee from McDonald's and a McMuffin at the start of your journey, if you stop at McDonald's four states away for lunch or dinner, it should feel almost exactly like the McDonald's that you stopped at at the start of your journey right by your house. It should really be no different. And even you have probably done this and if you haven't done this, you are a liar. You have gotten a drink at McDonald's in the morning on a long road trip and you have stopped maybe at multiple McDonald's along your route to get a refill of your drink. And again, if you haven't done that, you are probably lying. A lot of us have done that. So that replicated experience location over location over location. And I think we have a lot to learn from that model. And that model does not start with putting money first. It does not start with putting numbers first. It starts with making sure that we are incredibly selective of who we let join our team. And so that brings me to the how. How do we do that? We do that by being extraordinarily picky with who we let join our team. A lot of people will see your clinic, your business, whatever you are doing, being very successful and they want to invite themselves to come on board the ship. They are happy to stop by and drop off their resume and let you know that they are ready to start a position whenever you are ready to start paying them. And oftentimes we find ourselves as our business, our clinic, our practice is growing. We need people more than we care about exactly who that person is. And we have the mindset of we can train that person later. We can mentor that person later. All that matters is that I have more patients on my schedule than I can see. I have a month long wait list. I have a three month wait list. I have a six month wait list. And that's money I'm not capturing now. So I'm just going to hire that person who walked in the door and threw their resume on my desk. And we can't do that. Not if we want to replicate a really high quality experience, a consistent quality experience for our patients and our clients. Not enough businesses are picky enough at this process of making sure that person has the same beliefs that we do, making sure that we have a common shared foundation of training. Us here, we now only hire students who do a long rotation here or folks who have passed the ICE certification exam. That's where our standard is at now. That tells us that person either we have trained them in our training, our foundation as well, and we find out if they have our common belief systems or not, or we know that is on board already because they have passed such a rigorous certification as the ICE cert. But not enough of us are that picky. 17:23 WHEN GROWTH GOES WRONG And what happens if we don't do that? What happens when growth goes wrong? I want to just share a hypothetical example, speaking of the extremity management division today. Imagine that folks just have maybe even a little bit of a difference in what they believe and what they have been trained to do as physical therapists. And we say, you know what? They're only like 20% different. It doesn't matter. It doesn't really matter at the end of the day. Let's just hire this person anyways, even if they are maybe 20% different than the rest of the folks already on the team. Let's take an example of Lindsay and Mark from our extremity management team. Let's say that Mark believes that the foot, the ankle and foot, has no orthopedic value whatsoever. When he teaches his course, he just kind of glosses over that material and maybe even ends his class early. He ends faster than he planned to, right? Maybe he just kind of flips through the slides, shows a couple techniques, maybe an exercise, and he says, you know what? The ankle is really not that important to the body. Have a great weekend. Thanks for being here. Bye. And we're done at 3.30. Now, as we take that person who is now going to train more people underneath of them, the next person Mark trains is likely going to give even less attention to the ankle and foot. They're going to pass over even more of the fine details. And you can imagine if we take that now several generations deep, three, four, five generations deep, that that next person teaching extremity management may not even teach the ankle and foot, right? They may delete it from their slides entirely. Hey, we don't teach that in this course. Which is not true at all, right? Now we have a consistency problem in the product. What about the other end of the continuum? What if Lindsay believes the opposite? What if she believes the foot is the most important structure in the human body? What if she believes that great toe extension is linked to developing Alzheimer's disease? What if she spends so much time on the ankle and foot when she teaches extremity management that now her classes run until 7 p.m. on Sunday? Again, we have for a different reason, a consistency product, a consistency problem with the product we're delivering. Now again, that same example, as we get multiple generations deep, you could imagine the next person Lindsay trains underneath her maybe believes the foot is even more important and spends even more time on the ankle and foot. And maybe three, four, five generations deep, that person spends all of Sunday talking about the ankle and foot. We don't even talk about the hip and the knee anymore. Everything's about the ankle and the foot. And eventually what we come upon is a divergent offering of the same product. That the consistency of the product is diminished or absent entirely. And we have an entirely splinter product being offered. We're now offering two separate products from the same company, even though up many layers above in the leadership position, we're trying to figure out why the inconsistency is there. And it comes from not having that shared common training foundation and that shared belief system. So who is McDonald's? What is how they have franchised across the planet into one of the most successful businesses And the how is being really particular in who you let on your team and making sure that they already arrive with similar belief systems about how to practice physical therapy in a common training foundation. So many people arrive, new students, new grads with a wide variety of beliefs depending on where they went to school, what continued education courses they may have taken after it really can lead to that divergent offering of product that really creates a consistency and a quality product for your business over time. And again, in our mind is the original owner, the leader of the business. That's something we're trying to avoid at all costs. When we think about hiring new people, we're thinking about how can I essentially copy myself as much as possible so that when people come to see this new person I've hired or this eighth new person I've hired or my new location, how can I be sure that they get the same consistent product that I initially delivered when I started the business and it comes down to that shared common training foundation and that belief system. So that's the first part of this series. I want to take you all through the who, the what and the how. Next time I want to talk about once you have actually found that person, where do we go from there into the nitty gritty of things like operating agreements, things of making sure that our training foundation stays the same as we move through our practice, as we move through time together with these members on our team. I hope this was helpful. I hope you have fun with Gut Check Thursday. I hope you have a wonderful, fantastic Thursday and a great Labor Day weekend. We'll actually see you next week for a little bit of talk on carbohydrates on Fitness Athlete Friday. Have a great Thursday. Have a great weekend.

Please help me welcome Dr. Tricia Pingle to the show. Speaker 3 (03:47): Thank you. It is so nice to be here. Thank you for having me. I can't wait to dive in and have an amazing chat today. Speaker 1 (03:53): I know, me too. And let, we gotta start by talking about your hip hop dancing that you do. I too love to dance. I don't dance hip hop, but you've got the energy for it. And I know a lot of women listening, that's what they're here seeking is like, why don't I have the energy to do the things I wanna do? So maybe share a little bit about how you came to have this great energy at the stage of life that you're in. Speaker 3 (04:20): Yeah, I think, you know, dance is one of the things I say that saved me. 'cause When I was younger I used to dance and it was how I found joy. And my dad was a musician, grew up listening to music. Music was part of what brought me joy and happiness. And as I got older and I went through, you know, stressors, losing my dad at 24 years old, you know, going through medical school, getting married, having children, having symptoms throughout my life that were always dismissed. You know, the things like acne and heavy menstrual periods and bloating and all of that brings into a stress and kind of took me away from myself. And I talk to a lot of women in their forties particularly where they say, gosh, Dr. Pingle, I really feel like I've lost who I am. I feel like I've lost my joy. Speaker 3 (05:04): I feel like I'm not the same person I used to be. And I'm mean, and I'm irritable and I'm snappy and I don't sleep well. And I was going through a lot of that in my thirties and when I finally recognized it, I thought, this is it. I need to go back to what I wanna do for my soul. And I put myself into a hip hop class. I hadn't done hip hop in maybe 20 years. And I put myself in a class with a bunch of teenagers, 14, 15, 16 years old and in an advanced class. And I said, I'm just gonna do this. I'm gonna commit this to myself. And I can say without of doubt, out of all the things that I did to be well out of the diet, the stress reduction, the supplements, the best thing I ever did was put myself back in that hip hop class. Speaker 3 (05:51): Because as soon as I started moving and I started reconnecting my head and my body, there was a massive change that happened. I found more energy, I found more joy. I found the ability to just let loose. And so I've just been carrying that thread. I've been so, I've been dancing, gosh now regularly with these teenagers for maybe seven to eight years now. And I love it. I just absolutely love it. I couldn't be any happier than when that music is on and my body is new , it's my favorite. It's my favorite, favorite part of my life, honestly. I love it. And I, when I don't have class, if they're on a break or something, I'm miserable. It's sad. , Speaker 1 (06:30): I totally identify with with that as well. Dance was a, I call it dance therapy and it's a real part of my wellbeing as well. When I got healthy and lost a hundred pounds, I started salsa dancing. Well, I used to ballroom dance first, but then it was so rigid and they always, they wanted me to compete and I'm like, I just wanna have fun. So I quit that and I started salsa dancing and now I've done zoo and Zumba and all of this. It's very social, it's athletic, it's expressive, artistic. So you really do get in your body and it's part of what brings me joy as well. And I think that's part of what keeps me healthy. I love that you do the hip hop online. I'm sure everybody really enjoys seeing that and they're like, I wonder how I can get that energy. Speaker 1 (07:19): But for somebody who's listening who's kind of at that midlife stage and they're thinking, oh yeah, that's a a pipe train, Dr. Tricia, I am too tired. Like I don't even have the energy. I know that you talk about stress a lot and how it affects our health, the difference between internal and external stress. You talk about people who don't even realize that stress is a factor because we women are our houses and we just power through everything. Right? Raise your hand if that's you multitask, take care of ev anything and everything all at once. So I don't know if that's a part of your story that you wanna share. How did you come to realize that stress was such a big factor? Yeah, Speaker 3 (08:03): It's crazy. And first of all, I love do it all women. I love that we just strive for all of this, but unfortunately our bodies are not built for that on the go lifestyle. And I think with the technology that we've brought in the iPhones, the, you know, the constant stimulation, the social media, we're actually setting ourselves and our children up for a lot of serious health issues. And we're seeing that in our society. We're seeing more sensitive diabetes, we're seeing more sensitive cancer, cardiovascular disease, higher inflammatory responses, immune problems. And I think a lot of this is coming from this everyday stuff that we try to do and all these goals that we set for ourselves. But we don't give our bodies much grace to go with the rhythm. One of my favorite quotes is from Michael Jackson and it kind of ties into the dancing. Speaker 3 (08:47): And this is that everything living has a rhythm. Do you feel your music? And I think we spend so much time just running past it and just running and pushing through and pushing through and pushing through that we don't stop to actually feel our own rhythm and feel our own music. And that's actually to our decline. When you ask about internal and external stressors, I think most of us know what external stressors are and we all deal with it every single day. Spouses, children, money, jobs, whatever comes at us, you know, the pool pump breaks, you know, things like that that happened at the last minute. But when we have that stress response in our body to those external factors, even scrolling through Instagram, we actually create an internal stress on our body. Whether that be a nutrient deficiency, it could simply be an imbalance of dopamine to serotonin. Speaker 3 (09:36): We have changes in our menstrual cycles in women that that give internal stresses at certain times. Menopause is quite a big stressor. And then if you have other things that are going on, let's say problems with blood sugar or you know, underlying genetic conditions, those also cause stresses on the body. So I think a lot of us spend so much time when I ask saying, are you under stress? And they're like, oh, you know, I have a great life. I have all this stuff. I have a great business, I do all these things and I get through it all. I think I'm fine. I don't think we realize how much that's actually impacting our internal environment. And in order to have energy, we have to give our body time to rest. We have to actually pull away from that instinct to do everything and allow our bodies to heal and repair. Speaker 3 (10:18): And by doing that, our body has the energy and the resources to create more energy, which ironically then allows us to do more. So in my own personal story, everything that I do now, I couldn't do 10 years ago, I was just exhausted and fatigued and just like these women that you're talking about, just unable to even handle anything. Just snapping at everything, feeling lost, feeling sad, not having the energy to do what I want to do. And it wasn't until I backed away and realized how much stress I was really putting on myself internally in nutritional deficiencies, in imbalances, in my hormones that were really, really causing the problem. So I think it's important for us to recognize how much our bodies actually know what to do and how much we're our minds maybe are pushing us beyond that. And we need to back off a little bit and have a little bit more grace. But Speaker 1 (11:09): You know, as I'm hearing you makes perfect sense. You're preaching to the choir 'cause that was me. And there's so much out there about you're doing too much, you're too much dish, you're drinking the coffee in the morning to wind up, you're drinking the wine to wind down. So you know, at some point you have to say like either you've got your head in the ground and you don't wanna hear the truth that you need to stop doing so much. Or what? What is it that women aren't getting? Because I talk to women and they say, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, but they actually won't stop. Like I have a woman in my midlife metabolism program right now and totally anonymous, I'm not gonna mention her name, but she, she goes at it, she's so successful in the things that she has done in her community as a wife and a mom. Speaker 1 (12:02): And when you talk to her, she seems so poised and so full of energy. And then you look at her salivary cortisol and you're like, how is she even standing up? And to get her to even realize that something wrong, she had to get a breast cancer diagnosis, right? Because stress then affects your cortisol and then that increases your risk of cancer. And then when people get cancer, then they pay attention and they go, oh, what am I doing wrong? But to really get her to understand that she's doing too much, this external stress you're talking about is like a herculean task. So what does it take for a woman to really change what she's doing and change her life? I think Speaker 3 (12:42): Having a physician working with you that shows you what it's doing. You know, I think so often you go to the doctor for it and just say, gosh doc, I'm really not sleeping that well. And they're like, oh, here's a medication, or Hi, I'm just not, I don't have the energy I need. Well here's an antidepressant. And nobody's saying, Hey, let's sit down and see could there be something going on? Is there an imbalance? And when you do a full lab workup and you look at it from a functional perspective and you look at it, what's going on and what's happening, there's so many times where I'm going through a lab review and the woman looks at me and says, oh my God, I had no idea, right? Mm-Hmm. . And then many of us have family members that have lost their lives too young, you know, and linked back to stress or something was preventable. Speaker 3 (13:21): And I think there's so much health consciousness going on in our generation right now and in my age group in particular that we're looking at, our parents go and we're like, how can we change that? We don't wanna be that. We don't, we don't wanna leave our kids at 59 years old like my dad did. Or you know, and I think, so a lot of women are seeking answers and they're going to the physician asking for these types of tests and they're not getting clear and can answers 'em what they need to do. There's no doubt stress in the, you know, the, if you go to the doctor and they have to put in your diagnosis code, it's not like they say stress, they'll say fatigue, you know, insomnia, headaches, bloating, constipation, hair loss, perimenopause, these are all in there, but they're all the exact same symptoms of stress. Speaker 3 (14:03): And I think a lot of people, my mission is to get people to recognize that when you have the symptoms of all these other conditions, they are exactly the same symptoms of what you have when your body is under stress. And it takes you working with a physician and seeking a physician that can help you find these imbalances. And then once you do, it's amazing. It could be as simple as a vitamin C deficiency and you throw some vitamin C in there and you're back to yourself. You know, it could be as simple as changing your workout just slightly to do some toning exercises that benefit the calming nervous system, the parasympathetic nervous system. Such small little tweaks and getting women to recognize that is just us getting out there, you and me and talking about it and talking about our experiences and talking about how we've gone through it and how we've gained energy back by doing this exact thing. All of us want the same thing. We wanna be happy, we wanna have energy, we wanna be able to do everything we wanna do. We wanna be connected with others. You know, this is kind of an innate, the innate wants of women and we can actually do it if we pay attention to how much we're beating ourselves up in the meantime. Speaker 1 (15:09): Yes, , we can, yeah. So paying attention. And I do think it takes people like you and me out there telling people and doing the testing and showing them, like, I never heard of salivary cortisol testing in my medical training as a board certified OB G Y N for, you know, over 14 years. It just wasn't even something I knew about. And you know, I'll never forget when I learned about it and I said, oh, I'm gonna do this test and I did it and I had no cortisol. I was like the woman I just described, thank God I didn't have a breast cancer diagnosis at the time. It was a wake up call. It was a real wake up call. And I think that a lot of women don't realize going to their, you know, neighborhood H M O $30 copay doctor, that they're not getting everything that's available that could help them to understand what's going on with their health and actually get that, that vitality back. So I think it's super important that we're out there telling people what's available. Speaker 3 (16:11): Absolutely. And I think women are seeking it. They know, like they know something's not right, it's just they're showing up and being told everything's fine. And then being given a therapy that we haven't even looked at those levels. I mean, you know, as much as I do that cortisol and progesterone have very much of a relationship. So a lot of doctors are just out there pumping a bunch of progesterone without even considering the cortisol impact of it. And it, it takes, our body is an amazing machine and it has the ability to adapt. We adapt to our environment. If you're in the woods and you see a bear, your entire biochemistry and physiology changes in order to save your life and that doesn't include producing testosterone to have sex, your body's not interested in that moment, in that, right? We change everything to, to running, right. Speaker 3 (16:57): And then we wonder why is our libido so low? You know, where we work 12 hours a day, we take care of the kids, we clean the house, we do all this stuff, and we have no interest in sex. Gee, , you know, is it a, is it a testosterone problem or is it a cortisol problem that's causing a testosterone problem? And I think when we start looking at the body as an adaptive being and really paying attention to those little things that we can do along the way, it can make such a drastic impact on our lives. And I hope that everyone out there listens to that and seeks that answer because it doesn't have to be complicated. We do have to be kind to ourselves. You know, we can't keep self-deprecating and pushing ourselves beyond belief. We can only go so far. My grandmother used to say, and this was my grandmother way back in the day, you can't burn a candle at both ends and expect it to keep burning. And that is 100% true. At some point you're gonna burn out. And at that point is unfortunately where most women, you know, start seeking the help. You know, when they get a cancer diagnosis or they or they can't move forward. And that's what happened to me and that's why I just want people to understand you can catch it actually before that happens. You can actually prevent that from happening from what you're hearing is happening to your friends, to your family, you know, to your loved ones. Speaker 1 (18:09): Right. And then what does that do to your nutrient status? Because you're eating food? You know, it's funny, when I weighed 243 pounds, I used to think I had the best nutrition 'cause I was weighed so much more and I had eaten so much more food, which now I look back and I think that's insane. But I don't think that most people are aware of the effects of stress on their nutrient status. Speaker 3 (18:36): Yeah, I mean you could be doing everything right. You could be eating this amazing diet and still being impacted by the stress and you're not getting utilization. So let me talk about how stress impacts that and it does that in a couple different ways. So number one, just us running from that bear and adapting to that stressor depletes our B vitamins, particularly B five, B six, B 12, which are highly involved in the way that we break down our food, you know, to create energy. I mean they're essential for the creation of a T p. It also impacts our mineral status. So we'll start to deplete things like magnesium, potassium, we start to get imbalances in our electrolytes, which have impacts on our thyroid, has impacts on muscle contraction, cramps, sleep, those types of things. We also have a pretty big depletion in antioxidants, particularly vitamin C. Speaker 3 (19:26): So when you start to have that direct impact in the nutrients, it impacts everything else in the body. It impacts our production of serotonin. It impacts the way that we manufacture and utilize hormones like estrogen, testosterone, progesterone. It changes the way that we utilize thyroid that we create. It changes the way that we absorb the nutrients from our food. And this is where stress impacts us. The second thing is when you're running from a bear, you're not gonna digest your food. We were kind of set up with these two different nervous systems and many people have heard them as fight or flight or rest and digest. And when you're in a fight or flight, you're not resting and digesting. So when you're running from something and keeping up with that schedule and going and going and going, your body down regulates its digestion, which means you could be eating the most amazing diet and not get a lick of that nutrition because your body has slowed the digestion changed the absorbability due to it dealing with the threat. Speaker 3 (20:22): So it actually comes at you at a double whammy. And then the third whammy is once those are imbalanced, that's another internal stress, which then has more impact on cortisol, which causes more nutritional deficiencies, more downregulation, more symptoms. So by just simply saying, okay, I'm a busy woman and I'm out there running all day long, what's my B vitamin status? What's my vitamin C status? What's my mineral status? Do I have trouble digesting things? Do I, am I noticing bloating? Do I get heartburn? You know, just being aware of some of the things that are being impacted really can make a huge difference in preventing future problems. So I always recommend in general that these are the supplements that most busy women need to take. They need to be on a B vitamin, they need to be on vitamin C and antioxidants. They need to be on a mineral and they need to be on a probiotic. Because all of those are definitely being impacted simply by the lifestyle alone. Speaker 1 (21:17): Yes, absolutely. Amen to that. And then what's the consequence if you have these nutrient depletions and you don't know about it? Speaker 3 (21:25): Yeah, the consequences Speaker 1 (21:26): Happen. Speaker 3 (21:27): Yeah. Lots of symptoms. So commonly I see impacts in sleep almost immediately. Not sleeping soundly, trouble falling asleep, waking up in the middle of the night, lots of changes in mood because serotonin is highly regulated in the gut. It's also made with B vitamins and vitamin C and magnesium and all these things that that I've just mentioned. So I see a lot of anxiety and underlying just baseline irritability, very commonly as it progresses, I start to see more of thyroid issue, primarily in the conversion of thyroid. And I don't wanna get too technical, but you know, you could have an outright low thyroid function or you could have a subclinical state where you're making the thyroid but you're not utilizing it well. So the body starts to store, it starts to store thyroid, it starts to store estrogen. And that's when you start to see these symptoms that look like perimenopause, heavy periods, irregular cycles, headaches, hair loss, wrinkles, you know, poor muscle tone, all these things that we attribute to hot flashes, all these things that we attribute to menopause or perimenopause. Speaker 3 (22:30): But what they really are is a reaction of your body because it can't make what it needs to make. If you were manufacturing, you know, a water bottle on a conveyor belt, there's all these pieces that go into making this water bottle. And when a piece is missing, you have to figure out another way to compensate. And that's what our body does all day. When it's under stress, Hey, I need to make serotonin, I don't have vitamin C. Where can I pull that from? Where can I get that right? So it pulls from other pathways in order to prioritize different ones. And that's where we start to see symptoms. And instead of treating the symptom and suppressing the symptom, we need to ask the question, why am I having anxiety? Am I having anxiety because I have an imbalance? Because I have a nutrient deficiency because I'm pushing myself too far? And when you answer that question, the solution is actually ridiculously simple. You just replete what you're missing. You fill that gap on that conveyor belt. And that's where a lot of the nutritional therapy comes in. In my world of dealing with stress is how can I help the body, you know, get more parts for that conveyor belt while we work on mind body aspect to try to calm the body. We also need to support it. So we support it with a lot of nutrition. A ton of nutrition. Speaker 1 (23:46): Yes, it's super important. I think that everyone really needs micronutrient testing to see where their levels are. I'm sure you're a proponent of tests, don't guess as well. . Speaker 3 (23:57): Yeah, abs. Absolutely. I love micronutrient testing. And that, back to one of your earlier questions, that's one of those aha moments where, you know, my client looks at me and says, oh my God, I had no idea. And once you know you can do something about it, I mean, we're all pretty hard people if they're hardworking people, if there's a problem and we can figure out how to fix it, we will fix it. So we've gotta identify where the weak links are so that we can fix it. And then it's not so complicated. Then you're not spending hours at the doctor's office just saying, doc, I'm not getting better. I'm not getting better. It's like, hey, we tested this, we saw we were low in iron, we repleted that. Now the iron's back to normal. How are your symptoms? And then how is that impacting other areas when we bring up iron, what does that do to other nutrients at that point? We're always adapting and that's what's so, mm-hmm , gosh darn amazing about our bodies is that we can adapt to every little thing. And if we play into that adaption and work with it rather than against it, if we feel our rhythm , then it's amazing what we can do. Speaker 1 (24:58): Yeah, it's so true. And you know, but what do you say to people who are like, I just wanna do the testing once, I wanna know what I need, supplements I need to take, and then I wanna go on my merry way and I don't ever wanna look at that again. Yeah, Speaker 3 (25:12): It's a shame. I have had people like that. They usually come back about five years later and say, okay, I was wrong. Can we look at this again? , , you know, one of the things that I've come to realize just in my own health journey is you're never done getting Well, it's a spectrum where there's an area of health and there's an area of disease. And as we grow and we change and we get older, we change, our chemistry changes, our metabolism changes, things change. And we have to constantly be adapting and growing to that. I don't think anyone can just say, okay, I'm gonna do everything in two months and then I'm gonna be well for the rest of our lives. That's not realistic. , I, I mean, just like I said, just a cell phone alone. I mean, how many times do people check their phone a day? Speaker 3 (25:51): I think it was like upwards of 80 times a day for adults and like double that for children. And it's not even buzzing, right? It's just, we're just innately always stimulating ourselves. We live in this stimulated society and unless society's gonna change, which it's not, we're just gonna keep developing and growing technology and we need to actually address that because otherwise we're just gonna keep changing. So health is a spectrum and I really prefer to work with my clients for a very long period of time. Most of my clients have been me with, been with me for a very long period of time. And every year we're looking at, okay, what were our wins and what do we still need to grow on? What do we still need to learn? How are we gonna get into that mindset of true wellness and health? And that takes time. Mm-Hmm. , it's hard. The hardest part, I don't know if you agree, the hardest part is the mindset part. The mind body part is the hardest one to get a handle of because our brains trick us into thinking we have to deal with something else first, that everyone else comes first or other things come first instead of just breathing or being in the moment. Speaker 1 (26:54): Yeah, it's so true. And as you're talking, I'm thinking, it's not like we think, oh, I'm gonna brush my teeth really good right now and then I won't ever have to do it again. Or I'm gonna clean my house so well I'm never gonna have to clean it again. No. But somehow, I don't know, when it comes to natural healing or nutritional changes or the things we're talking about, I don't know where we get this mentality from that I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna do it and I'm gonna get healthy and then I'm not gonna have to do it anymore. And I always say, health is a journey, not a destination. , it's not like you arrive . Speaker 3 (27:31): Yeah. You know, and I get, I get that all the time, you know, oh well how long do I have to do this nutrition plan for? How long do I have to abstain from alcohol for before I can put it back in? You know, it's like, well I don't know if you can put it back in. We're just gonna have to take this journey, you know, as it goes. And listen to what the body's trying to tell us and adapt to that as we go. One of the biggest obstacles that I get, or objections I guess, is they say, gosh, Dr. Penal, am I gonna have to eat plants like that for the rest of my life? ? Am I gonna have to eat like you and exercise every day like you do ? And I'm like, here's the thing to me, because I've gone through this transformation with my health, it isn't a burden to me to eat. Speaker 3 (28:10): Well, in fact, my body wants to eat well, it, it craves eating well. If I wanted to eat poorly, I couldn't. I physically couldn't because my body will be like, no, you are not eating that. And it's just a, I want to feel well, I have more energy and can do more than I've ever done in my entire life at 47, way more than I ever did when I was 22. It's an amazing thing. And when I see my clients transform and hit that point where I'm at, where they're like they want to be well, they want to continue to eat well because they feel so good, nothing's a better feeling and I know that I set them up. Nothing. You know, nothing is a better feeling. It's the most inspiring thing. It's why you and I show up every single day. It's to help people make that realization that they don't have to abuse their bodies to feel well. Speaker 3 (28:54): And I think we do that. You know, we drink alcohol, we deprioritize exercise or self-care for other people to help other people. And we think we're doing good when in reality we're focusing on everybody else and not ourselves and we're actually putting ourselves at detriment. But when you flip that, you can do so much more. You can give back to society. You can help so many more people. You have the energy to do what you want. You enjoy exercise, you enjoy food, you start dancing again. You know, you do things that truly allow you to appreciate every single moment, which unfortunately not everyone recognizes until something drastic happens. I've lost my entire family above me. So my parents, my grandparents, and I lost them all at a fair, fairly long young age. And to me that's changed my perspective on how I spend time with my kids, how I spend time with my friends and my family and the gratitude that I give forth every single day. Speaker 3 (29:45): Because this is a gift. I'm on lease, right? My life is on lease. It could go at any time. And I just want to be the best that I can be. And I wanna be able to give the knowledge that I've learned through this process to as many people as possible so that they can give it to other people so we can all reconnect and be healthy and well and live this life to the fullest. I, I can't think of anything more. And I think we spend so much time worrying about all those nitpicky things, right? Did we do this on time? Did so-and-so like it when we did that? Did that person ignore my text? You know, what is so-and-so doing on their vacation? You know, we worry about everybody else and we don't spend enough time really worrying about ourselves because we think it's selfish and it's not. Speaker 1 (30:25): It's not, is it Speaker 3 (30:26): ? ? It's not. It allows you to give more. You can do more, so much more. And we can help raise our kids to not set them up for the same thing we set ourselves up for, which scares Olivia daylights outta me with like two year olds on cell phones scrolling through YouTube. I'm like, no. Oh my gosh. Speaker 1 (30:44): . Oh no. So Speaker 3 (30:46): With a diet Coke in hand, right? , Speaker 1 (30:49): I'm wondering if, you know, it's so funny, I'm, I'm in Dubai right now and they have McDonald's here and they have McDonald's ads and I was noticing, so they have it with Arabic letters, which I think are very artistic and beautiful, the Arabic writing and, and I had this thought, is McDonald's healthier? Because the writing about it is pretty over here still as unhealthy. And you know, hopefully McDonald's won't mind that I say that 'cause they know that some of their products have been shown to be challenging. But anyway, I just had that thought. And it's the same for the sodas and things that I see in foreign countries in a foreign language with pretty writing. It doesn't look to me as toxic as I know it is in the US or I encountered it for decades. Do you know what I'm saying? Speaker 3 (31:37): I do. And you know, it's all marketing and marketing images in our heads of what's been told to us to be healthy or not healthy, right? So if it looks different, we're like, oh, that's healthy. I mean they do the same thing. Supplements. I've seen some supplements out there that are so beautiful. Their label is so beautiful and they're absolute junk. And I'm like, but they're selling like hotcakes 'cause their label is so beautiful. You know? So yeah. You know, and, and I think all of our habits are ingrained in exactly the same way. At some point we had an image in our brain that made it say, oh, we should eat that. Or This makes me feel good when I eat. What are they called? The little egg sausage McMuffins or whatever. I feel good when I eat that. So then whenever I feel depressed, I'm going to eat a sausage McMuffin. Speaker 3 (32:16): Right? I don't even know if that's the name. I haven't been to a McDonald's in years, but those are the things we have to use our mind to override. You know, I feel good when I eat quinoa and avocado, right? But it took me a while to overcome that, right, right. To overcome that pre I guess notion in my head. And I think that's one of the biggest challenges we have right now in our country. Particularly because we're just so inundated with information everywhere and it's so overwhelming and you don't know what to believe and you don't know what to look at and you don't know it's healthy. And I think that causes a lot of people just to be overwhelmed by the whole process and say whatever, I'll just eat whatever because this is too much work. It's not as much work as you think. You just need to have a trusted guide to help you, help you get through it and evaluate what you're doing. Speaker 1 (32:57): Yes. A trusted guide is essential and you are one.
