This week, I'm excited to welcome back Melissa Urban to the show to discuss her new book, The New Whole30: A Fresh Approach to Food and Life. Melissa Urban is the co-creator and CEO of the Whole30 program, a New York Times bestselling author, and a respected voice in the wellness community. Her new book reintroduces the Whole30 program with updates based on recent science and her personal evolution, making the program more inclusive, empathetic, and accessible. In this conversation, we cover: The Whole30 Framework: Melissa revisits the Whole30 as a 30-day elimination and reintroduction program designed to help individuals identify how foods affect their health and well-being. It's not a diet or detox but a personalized tool to find your "food freedom." The Evolution of Whole30: Melissa explains the updates in the new book, including changes in tone and scientific understanding, as well as new accommodations for vegetarians, vegans, and plant-based eaters. Boundaries and Wellness: Drawing from her book The Book of Boundaries, Melissa explores the role of boundaries in improving relationships and mental health, showing how the Whole30 is a “boundary bootcamp” for better self-awareness and confidence. Emotional and Psychological Challenges: Melissa shares insights on navigating emotional attachments to food, managing social dynamics, and overcoming fears related to dietary changes. Her empathetic approach acknowledges these challenges while offering practical solutions. Why 30 Days Matters: The Whole30's duration strikes a balance between accessibility and effectiveness, helping participants experience life-changing benefits in energy, sleep, digestion, and mental clarity, with a gradual reintroduction phase to solidify learnings.

Boundaries can be physical… like fences, or gates at the top or bottom of stairs to keep toddlers and pets from going up or down. Boundaries can also be emotional and are established by using communication skills. Physical and emotional boundaries are often used to keep us safe. Emotional boundaries are essential in healthy relationships. Yet many people are reluctant to set boundaries with others. It's difficult, it can be scary and it puts one in a vulnerable position. However, learning to set boundaries is a must in healthy adult relationships and to improve our sense of personal power. Listen in and learn to set boundaries in life, especially with food pushers!Resources:BariAfterare: www.bariaftercare.comConnie Stapleton PhD website: www.conniestapletonphd.comBariAftercare website: https://www.conniestapletonphd.com/bariaftercareBariAftercare Facebook page (for members only): https://www.facebook.com/groups/BariAftercareKevin Stephens: Your Bariatric Buddy   https://www.facebook.com/groups/yourbariatricbuddy/peopleInstagram: @cale101 (Caleshia Haynes)Instagram: @therealbariboss (Tabitha Johnson)Instagram @drsusanmitchell (Dr. Susan Mitchell)Instagram: @lauraleepreston (Laura Preston)ProCare Vitamins (10% off with code ConnieStapleton)Dr. Susan Mitchell:https://www.facebook.com/DrSusanMitchellhttps://www.facebook.com/bariatricsurgerystrategiesBoundaries by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend https://www.drcloud.com/books/boundariesThe Book of Boundaries: Set the Limits That Will Set You Free by Melissa Urban https://www.melissau.com/boundaries-book/Please subscribe to the show and rate it on Apple Podcasts, download free information at www.conniestapletonphd.com, and follow me on Twitter (@cstapletonphd), Instagram (@cstapletonphd), YouTube, LinkedIn, and on Facebook.

Melissa Urban is a bestselling author and the founder of the Whole 30 nutrition program, known for her transformative journey from an unhealthy lifestyle to becoming a leader in health and wellness. Born in New Hampshire and raised in a close-knit Portuguese Catholic family, Melissa struggled with a five-year drug addiction in her early 20s. After her second stint in rehab, she made the decision to completely overhaul her life, starting with exercise and healthier habits. ⁣ Her recovery journey began at a gym, where she joined a running group that helped her see herself as a healthy person. This mindset shift was crucial in maintaining her sobriety. Melissa's fitness journey evolved from running to triathlons, kettlebells, and eventually CrossFit, where she became deeply involved, even owning a gym and contributing to the CrossFit Journal. In 2009, inspired by her CrossFit experience, Melissa created the Whole 30 as a personal experiment. The program quickly gained popularity, leading her to quit her insurance job in 2010 to focus on it full-time. She relocated to Utah and began holding seminars across the country, marking the start of Whole 30 as a thriving business. Today, the program has expanded into a widely recognized brand, with partnerships with companies like LaCroix and Chipotle. ⁣ Melissa continues to spread the Whole 30 message through social media and her writing, while enjoying life in Salt Lake City, Utah. She remains focused on helping others discover what works best for their health through the Whole 30 program and is dedicated to staying flexible and open to new opportunities.

Melissa Urban is a badass. And we talk about that term badass and why she likes and why she appreciates the label and explains why we may attach that label to women who are doing big things, but we don't necessarily attach it to men. So, who is Melissa beyond being a badass and what has that baddass-ery led to? It led to her co-founding and becoming the CEO of the Whole 30 brand. She's also a recovered addict, a New York Times Bestselling Author, a mother, a podcast host, a nature churchgoer (those are her terms), and she also talks about boundaries quite a bit and wrote a book all about boundaries, which is called The Book of Boundaries. If you are in the health space, you've probably heard of Melissa and her Whole 30 brand and blog and books. She's really created quite an empire around that concept. But today's conversation is not just about all of Melissa's successes; it's also about some of the challenges and failures she's had when it comes to partnership and relationship and her own journey and experience and learning to be vulnerable and learning to share that sometimes she's not okay and sometimes she struggles just like the rest of us and how she's thought deeply about what she presents to the world and her willingness to share some of the more vulnerable pieces of herself. So, this conversation hopefully will light you up, will hopefully make you realize that there often are no real gurus out there and we're all just trying to do the best we can, and even if we're having some success, we still may be having challenges that we're dealing with on a moment-to-moment basis that may not be presented on social media. Speaking of social media, she has certainly built quite a following on Instagram, and so we talk about some of the downsides that come with social media and how she's learned to create some boundaries for herself. Melissa had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “I am always thinking of boundaries… as protecting future me, setting future me up for success” (7:30). “People don't like confrontation. People don't like saying no” (8:50). “We have this habit of automatically saying yes… because we want to meet other people's expectations” (9:20). “We have to create that pause” (12:50). “In the absence of a plan, the brain is going to do what is easy and what is rewarding” (15:45). “I love the idea of a 30-day commitment” (18:55). “Black and white rules are actually easier for the brain to follow” (19:20). “I like structure. I like routine. They're very comforting to me” (24:10). “Over the years, I've lost that dogmatism; I've lost that [idea that] there is only one right way” (27:45). “There is no one size fits all. There is no one best way. And my job is to figure out the path that works best for you” (28:25). “I discovered I loved hanging out with myself” (34:25). “[Women] are often told that our needs and feelings and comforts don't matter as much as men's” (38:50). “I think I know myself really well and I'm really confident in who I am and what I'm not” (42:00). “I think there's an element of badass-ery in any woman who claws her way up to the C-suite, because it's harder for us than it is for a guy, especially a white guy” (43:10). “I'm really good at empowering people and helping them make changes that stick” (47:35). “I think often we extend others a grace and an understanding and a compassion that we are not willing to extend ourselves” (50:50). “I don't say things just to be nice” (53:30). “We are not a weight loss diet” (56:15). “Social media is such a blessing and a curse” (59:35). “Social media is a pull, not a push. You always control what comes into your feed” (59:40). “I have really strong boundaries and I hold them, and that's how I make social media a place that works for me” (1:01:05).

Episode #10 Description & Links Goals are nice, but how to built and maintain successful systems and environments? Let's talk about it! (With Self-Reflection Worksheet & affiliate Book Links to Amazon related Bestsellers) In todays episode and live coaching session I am going share one of my biggest epiphany and break through moments throughout my own peak performance journey, as well as from coaching many people around the world in becoming and maintaining personal best.   It lies in the power of systems and environments! Actually studies lately have shown that we are even more an habitual being (influenced on habits and beliefs around us) than an intentional being. Means even if we have an amazing set of goals and big intentions, if you stay where you are when it comes to location or people, you are likely going to fail with your ambitions (exemptions from the rule as always, but we are focussing on science), because we can not heal where we got hurt in the first place. The same environment that made us ill isn't able to make us well. So how Do we set up ourselves for success now? First of all in being clear and decisive on where to go and what to allow in, in order to reach our destination. But in order to make informed decisions and set healthy boundaries, we need to be crystal clear with our own needs, and how to take care of them, physically, emotionally and socially. But most of the people are so busy and focused on other peoples needs or even go as far as people pleasing, that they hardly recognize or even know their own needs, that need to be acknowledged, when it comes to ones success and personal fullfillment. That's why you will found a run down of the main human needs in this episode and how to possibly meet them. Here you're going to have a free worksheet to download https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sy9OZneHlBXxdRUqPwdnH6c03jJT3HIh/view?usp=drive_link.Please use this sheet to reflect on and evaluate your own needs, as we go through them. Give them a priority (0-10) in your own life to find out how big of an influence or importance certain needs actually have in your life. In the second step you will get some inspirations on how to meet these identified needs. This will be the baseline for building your individual success blueprint and system. Book recommendations*: If you want to dive deeper into the science of building habits and successful systems, you'll get the perfect guide in James Clear's bestsellers, Atomic Habits (https://amzn.to/3LikEZu) and The 1% Method (https://amzn.to/4bJgm8g). And if you are like a lit of us and you're struggling with saying „no“ or setting healthy boundaries, Melissa Urban has created an incredible and practical guide on how to set and maintain healthy boundaries for yourself and others.

How to WIN everyday in life! (With Self-Reflection Worksheet & affiliate Book Links to Amazon related Bestsellers) Find your personal worksheet here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vtsf6FUBk1rH6hBqT-jpj-qLNiJNIwMS/view?usp=sharing This episode is going to be a tribute to one of my biggest childhood dreams, the upcoming Olympics! During this time, it is all about high-performing (on point), nose length wins, and world record breaking. But how can we climb the Olympus in our daily ambitious life and win on a daily basis? Let me run through 5 of my top tips on how to build a winners mindset and play life like a pro! #1 Find your own definition of success that is beneficial and motivating. When it comes to defining and evaluating our own levels of success, we first need to agree on what that actually looks and feels like. When it comes to goal setting, the goal is simply the tip of the iceberg. What's even more important is building a system and embodying the new identity of your desired outcome. This allows you to install micro habits that inevitably lead to success and achievements! You'll get the perfect deep dive into building new micro habits in James Clear's bestsellers, Atomic Habits (https://amzn.to/3LikEZu) and The 1% Method (https://amzn.to/4bJgm8g). #2 Commitment Your level of commitment is crucial for your daily wins and sustainable success. How bad do you want that new life, that change, that betterment? And ask yourself truthfully: Are you playing your life and business like an amateur or like a pro? Because like this famous quote says, I heard in a John Assaraf Masterclass: “Treat your business like a business and it'll PAY you like a business. Treat your business like a hobby and it'll COST you like a hobby.” So the level of commitment is absolutely crucial and directly linked to your ability to succeed. #3 Learning forward (cross the word failing out of your repertoire) There's a huge difference between highly successful and struggling individuals, and it all starts with their perspective on hardships and setbacks. A winner's mind has trained itself to see the value, the learning lesson, the growing opportunity, and the gift in everything that happens, the good and the bad. They take full ownership of their lives and refuse to be victims of their circumstances. #4 Build a strong TEAM! Humans are built to be cooperative and live in relationships—and it's a beautiful thing! That is simply what made us survive and thrive for so many years to begin with, and it can do the same for you! Even though there are many people out there who have trust issues and try to isolate themselves, thinking that the "lone wolf path" is the safest path in life, we can't deny our human design! Side Note: If you're like most of us and struggling with trust issues, don't worry! I dedicated an entire episode to this, and you can find it here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6QsppyNsBAyHCvKji5cH. NK?si=f7b048a5861440f3 #5 Holding your standards and boundaries When it comes to life, we get what we tolerate, and people will always test your commitment and boundaries, especially when it comes to success and positive life changes out of their comfort zones. But you can rise to the challenge! I'm excited to share this amazing resource with you! Melissa Urban has created an incredible and practical guide on how to set and maintain healthy boundaries for yourself and others. You can find the book here: https://amzn.to/4cToF2g.

I have a hot take: Boundaries are giving a lotttt of people a permission slip to be assholes. They're being mis-used to control, manipulate, and justify selfish behaviour. As therapy speak and buzzwords take over the internet and group chats, the overuse can lead to misuse, and a lot of these ideas have become convoluted and misrepresented. (Guys… not EVERYONE is a narcissist, and a disagreement doesn't mean you were being gaslit.) Boundaries should start with a respectful dialogue, but these days they're being used as excuse to ghost, cancel people, always get your way, and avoid dealing with real issues. Don't get me wrong, as a newly reformed anxious people-pleaser, learning about setting proper boundaries has legit changed my life. But bailing on friends or suddenly cutting off loved ones when you don't get your way to “protect your peace” isn't actually how healthy boundaries work. Boundaries are an amazing tool to protect our wellbeing and our relationships. They should be rooted in kindness and respect, they should aim to bring us closer and build bridges, not walls. And they should always be about the actions you will take to keep yourself safe, not controlling other people or making demands.So join me as I go offffff on:The most common ways boundaries are being unfairly usedHow power and control can masquerade as boundariesHow to *actually* set a healthy boundary Melissa Urban's traffic light framework for boundary-settingScripts for kind and gentle boundaries How improperly using boundaries leads to avoidance Why selective enforcement is hurtfulResources mentioned: Listen to episode 88 with boundaries expert Melissa UrbanOur show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerSara Valentine, Content ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Whole30 began as a dietary experiment: For 30 days, Melissa Urban went without grains, dairy, legumes, alcohol and added sugar. She was trying to address several health problems, and the results were so extraordinary that she decided to share the diet with others. What followed was a blog, a series of seminars, a best-selling book and eventually a wide-ranging wellness brand that's helped millions of people identify the best diet for their own body. But in 2015, Melissa had to rethink everything—even her own name—when she split up with her husband and business partner, Dallas Hartwig. She retained ownership of the business, and today, the “Whole30 Approved” logo appears on a range of brands, from La Croix water to Chipotle salad bowls.

Discussing boundaries can be challenging, yet it is crucial for our mental well-being and the pursuit of a fulfilling life. Paradoxically, those who stand to gain the most from establishing boundaries are often those who struggle the most to communicate these limits.In this episode of "Leading with Heart," I sit down with Sharon Arana, a mother, wife, and seasoned Air Force major. Sharon opens up about her unique journey as a woman, a single parent, and a first-generation Latina in the military. We are talking about the crucial role of setting healthy boundaries for work-life integration, self-care, and burnout prevention, particularly in high-stress environments like the military. Sharon also advocates for equitable military policies and offers practical advice on introspection, mentorship, and valuable resources for boundary setting, including Melissa Urban's "The Book of Boundaries." This episode is full of wisdom for anyone looking to understand and improve their boundary-setting skills in both personal and professional life.RESOURCES:Connect with Sharon:SHOW NOTES: https://www.christinamattisonyoga.com/blog/episode36Connect with me in the Strong and Resilient Woman Community on Facebook HERE (https://www.facebook.com/groups/yogaformilitarywomen), or on Instagram @themilitaryyogiMore about Christina Mattison and the Leading with Heart PodcastHey there!

And the rest is kind of history.""My first Whole30 was the first time I was able to get off the scale and out of the mirror, and when I was done I knew I would never go back to the way I was eating before.""We aim to be a science-backed program based on clinical evidence and the scientific literature, so as we learn more about food and the way food impacts our bodies, our program rules have certainly evolved throughout the years. If the evidence doesn't hold up anymore, we're making a rule change."Resources Mentioned Whole30 Program - https://whole30.com Book on Boundaries - https://www.amazon.com/Book-Boundaries-Limits-That-Will/dp/0593448707 CrossFit - https://www.crossfit.com/ Connect with Melissa Website: https://whole30.com Facebook: https://facebook.com/whole30 Instagram: https://instagram.com/whole30 LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/whole30 Twitter: https://twitter.com/whole30 Connect with Amy Myers, MD Website: https://www.amymyersmd.com/ Newsletter: https://www.amymyersmd.com/ec/guide-to-leaky-gut Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmyMyersMD Twitter: https://twitter.com/AmyMyersMD Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/amymyersmd/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dramymyers YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AmyMyersMD/featured

Is Whole30 for you? In this episode with Melissa Urban, Co-Founder of Whole 30, we embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, exploring the intricate details of the Whole30 diet and beyond. We engage in a thought-provoking conversation on the self-experimentation versus elimination mindset, as well as the re-introduction phase of the diet taking centre stage. We dissect this crucial aspect, shedding light on the importance of reintroducing foods and the impact it can have on your overall health. Furthermore, we emphasize the significance of reading labels, uncover the hidden truths behind food labels and learn how this practice can empower you to make informed dietary choices. Then, we explore the concept of Food Freedom while still aspiring for the results of the Whole30, evaluate whether one can stick to a Whole30 diet in the long run, and dive into the accountability factor and the power of the Group Whole30 experience. Finally, we discuss creating healthy boundaries without significantly changing your relationships with others and uncover why it's crucial to speak openly about concussions. Let's dive in!

One of my favorite books is, "Food Freedom Forever," by Melissa Urban.  This is not a Whole30 book though...it's focused on strategies for your food freedo and you don't have to do a Whole30 in order apply these concepts.  One of my favs that I personally use and teach inside of the HEALTHY HABITS ACCELERATOR POD COURSE is the concept of "worth it" foods.  Just like your own food freedom, worth it foods are personal to you but I'm sharing 4 questions to ask yourself when decided if/when a food is worth it to you (or not) and of course a habit loop! *** HABIT HACKS: -Get the FREE HEALTHY HABIT RESET MASTERCLASS! -Access the secret podcast ATOMIC HABITS FOR WOMEN -Get my most popular tracker from the shop, the ULTIMATE HABIT TRACKER! -Access my signature program, the HEALTHY HABITS ACCELERATOR POD COURSE -Sign up for the next cohort of my group coaching program, THE HEALTHY HABITS MENTORSHIP! -CHECK OUT THE FREEBIE VAULT!: Access habit tools, self care checklist, ingredient meal tips, free workouts and more!    LET'S CONNECT: Connect with Emily: @emilynichols22@habithackshop.co www.emily-nichols.com

On today's episode of The CLS Experience  we have a very delightful treat. She's the co-founder and CEO of Whole 30, a multiple time New York Times Best-Selling author, a dynamic podcast host, a global speaker, a recovery advocate, AND a super entrepreneur, no big deal. After spending some time in rehab, while on the road to recovery, she reinvented herself when she began a 2-person dietary experiment that would permanently transform her health, and her relationship with food and her body, thus leading to the creation of Whole30. She has helped millions of people create lasting, sustainable habits, and change their lives including writing a plethora of books helping humans all over the world. She dives in on helping people set boundaries around food, drink, and “diet talk,” something she discovered people really struggled with, especially in social situations, which I can totally relate to. Her ability to use her value system to show up exactly as she is and be willing to talk about the hard stuff first, is second to none. She's just a juggernaut in all facets of life, and a terrific mother and human being!
