Real talk: Who else is confused about what to buy at the grocery store? With so many different labels found on food packages, from grass-fed, organic and free-range, to low-fat, high-protein and gluten-free, grocery shopping can be so overwhelming. What do these labels mean? Which labels should we be looking for? Which labels matter and which ones don’t? Navigating these labels makes figuring out what to buy at the grocery store so confusing. Food marketers have done an amazing job trying to trick us into believing their products are healthier for you than they actually are by using fancy buzzwords like “low-fat”. Unfortunately, most of us fall for it! I'll let you in on a few little secrets these food marketers don’t want you to know: Low-fat isn’t a label you should look for, high-protein doesn’t automatically mean it’s healthy, and you don’t have to eat organic to see results. Mind blowing, right? Want to learn more about exactly what you should be buying at the grocery store? This episode of Coffee & Kettlebells is for you. Guest Kevin Curry does an amazing job explaining the ins and outs of different foods labels, making grocery shopping a whole heck of a lot simpler for us, especially those of us on a budget! Kevin, author of the Fit Men Cook cookbook and a popular Instagram health influencer, spells out exactly which food labels we need to look for and which ones we can just ignore. The next time you are at the grocery store, you’ll be thankful you listened to this episode! What you’ll learn: Common food label buzzwords and what they actually mean Healthy shortcuts you can take when shopping on a budget Whether or not you should pay more for organic foods Which foods you should always buy at the highest quality Why you don’t want to eat low-fat foods The truth about high-protein foods Kevin’s top tips for making the healthiest choices at the grocery store Up Next: 5 Ways to Make Vegetables Taste Good Does Organic Really Matter an How to Start Juicing Splendid Spoon CEO on Cleanses, Gluten, GMO's, Soy and More with Nicole Centeno Life Hacks for Going Gluten Free Find more from Kevin: Instagram: @fitmencook Facebook: @fitmencook Website: www.fitmencook.com

Let’s talk about money! Today on On the Spot we interviewed Roselyn Wilkinson, certified financial planner and author of the book “It’s Good to be Queen.” Tune in with us and learn how to take control of your goals through financial planning. ”It doesn’t have to be complicated, but I’d like women to think about it in terms of their financial health is like their physical health. Your finances and your health are gonna be with you your whole life.” A lot goes into financial planning, and people tend to overlook the importance of teaching girls about creating plans to reach their goals. Women need to take control of their own finances and look out for their own goals instead of relying on the men in their lives. “Women are making 85% of those financial decisions. They are actively engaged in the big purchases, right? If there is a minivan to be bought, they are there. But when it come sto the long term planning, they are still deferring those decisions to their husbands, partners, fathers, brothers, best friend’s son who just graduated from college…” It’s okay for women to talk about money.

Nicole Centeno is the founder of Splendid Spoon, a food delivery company that takes care of meal prep by sending peeps plant-party soups and smoothies so you can slurp up for breakfast and/or lunch and then sit pretty knowing you stole more than your required dose of fruits and veggies by noon. Suck on that, healthy eating is hard mentality! In our chat, Nicole serves more than soup - she dishes out so much wisdom about how simple it can actually be have a packed schedule (she’s juggling a company and two kiddos!) and still pack in the plants. What I love most about this entrepreneurial and enthusiastically health-conscious soup master is that she’s as down to earth as her foods. Nicole opens up about how, back in the day, she used to stress so much about food and her relationship with it. While she was pregnant with her first child, she was going craaaazy about doing everything right and treating eating like it was some sort of mysterious equation. Quickly she learned how those obsessive, worrying thoughts around food didn’t work. [Shocker.] And instead, she discovered how calming down about the whole healthy eating thing and making small, simple changes can radically change a life. [Also shocker.] Press play to hear: How to get your plant party on from morning ‘til noon How to soup up your soup game Why white knuckling does. not. work. Strategies for upping your smoothie game so you’re sipping on high-protein, low sugar blends How dinner stress can FINALLY be a thing of the past Three reasons that will make soups one of your menu staples forever A down-to-earth approach to revamping your relationship with food Plus some unlikely secret ingredients for your soups and smoothies that will change your world And more!

Nicole Centeno is a French Culinary Institute–trained chef and the founder and CEO of Splendid Spoon, the wellness brand combining the power of plants and the art of mindfulness in ready-to-eat meals delivered to your home. At Boston College, she studied diet therapies as treatment for illness and has taught cooking and nutrition courses at Columbia University. Nicole lives in Brooklyn, NY with her two sons, Grover and Caleb. She is also the author of Soup Cleanse Cookbook.
Intermittent fasting is our modern-day way of mimicking ancestral eating, where intentionally creating these stressors makes us more resilient and helps us heal on a cellular level. We sit down with Nicole Centeno, a French Culinary Institute–trained chef and the founder and CEO of Splendid Spoon to discuss it all, from soup to nuts. We both love soup. In fact, it might be the very thing that’s held this relationship together after 17 years. So, when we met Nicole, or as we lovingly refer to her, Dame Spoon, we were excited to have another cook in the kitchen. Nicole is amazing because she is one of the few people who enjoys geeking out about the power of food as medicine as much as we do. And she makes a killer Ikarian stew. Also you’ll learn how to pronounce Ikaria. If entering into a state of ketosis has left you in a state of panic, you’re not alone. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to understand whether or not we should be eating like cavemen, not eating like Kate Moss circa 1997, or just focusing on plants, like, well, just about everyone these days. Here's some of what we cover: · Nicole did a bit of studying in college and learned how ancestral eating and antient fasting rituals were used to treat people with epilepsy. · Ancestral eating is how we ate when we didn’t have the crazy abundance of food we do today. #Snacknation · In caveman days, if you binged on a pint of ice cream you would probably slip into a very long nap…and then you would wake up dead, because another animal ate you. So, if we’re not smart about what we eat – we’re probably not passing on our genes, ya know? · We get into all of it: industrial farming, intermittent fasting, lectins, Blue Zones, dirt smoothies. …what?! You haven’t heard of dirt smoothies?! · We also learn how Nicole, within 2.5 years: started a business, had a baby, got pregnant with the second, ended her marriage and wrote a book. Not bad, Nicole. Not bad. But did you do it all in heels? Psh. Thought so. SPECIAL OFFER FOR LISTENERS! Enjoy $20 off your first Splendid Spoon delivery with the discount code splendid.to/htwpodcast.

How can releasing our perception of control in motherhood, pregnancy, and our lives in general, help us to find ease and purpose?

full show notes here! Today's guest Nicole is so impressive to me. Not only is she a single mom of two, author, and founder and CEO of a start up, Splendid Spoon she is beautiful, present, articulate, and so engaging whenever I speak with her. We met a few months ago when we were speaking at Wanderlust and her peaceful energy made me immediately want to know more about her and be her friend. She has this calm energy even though she's doing so much somehow making it seem easy. We connected in so many ways, from our philosophy with food and body image, to our love for journaling, to practicing mindfulness and so much more. I loved the way this conversation meandered in so many directions as usual. We covered being a single mom, navigating a divorce, entrepreneurship, single tasking, feeling our feelings, living from your heart vs. head, food as medicine, career transitions, mindful eating, motherhood (and how 'you birth your own healer'), New York City, style tips (I love her style) and way more. I loved this episode. Let us know what you thought or if you have any questions and what you thought. Notes from the Show:-Nicole is super sweet and offering all listeners $20 their first order!
