Summer cranks up the pressure for vacation vibes only as if rest and restoration have to come with a plane ticket, a beach view, or a perfectly lit patio. But what if rest wasn't something you had to escape to find? What if it was something you could unlock right at home with just a few intentional shifts? Interior designer Leanne Ford once said, “Make your home better than your vacation.” And that's what we're leaning into today. In this episode, we're reimagining home environment self-care and exploring how small shifts can bring staycation energy into your space, making your home a place of peace, restoration, and spiritual renewal.

Feeling stretched thin—even in your walk with God? Pouring out in every direction but rarely pausing to be poured into? This episode offers a gentle pause and a fresh perspective, exploring how Jesus practiced spiritual self-care—and why that matters for your daily life right now. These aren't just ancient stories, they're modern invitations to step into rhythms of grace, peace, and restoration. Jesus didn't just serve and heal. He rested, withdrew, and nurtured His relationship with Father God. And that same invitation is open today.Keep listening for three ways Jesus cared for His soul, and how those same rhythms can restore joy, calm, and clarity in a world that constantly pulls on every side. Rest isn't lazy, it's divine. Self-care isn't selfish, it's sacrosanct. And the quiet places? That's where God is already waiting to meet you with open arms.Recipes Mentioned in the EpisodeWatermelon Salad with FetaScriptures ReferencedMark 1:35Luke 22:15Matthew 4:4John 10:302 Corinthians 5:21Want to savor more goodness?I'm so excited you're here!

In Episode 32, we’re dishing up my daily routine for optimized health and productivity. I’m going over my full routine that promotes high performance, energy, and mental clarity. These are the exact behaviors I follow every day in order to improve health and achieve goals. While there are some day-to-day fluctuations, many of these habits are constant, non-negotiable aspects of my daily life. No matter what your goal in life is, I believe the greatest predictor of success is a strong foundation of health and fitness. I was 90lbs overweight, with no direction in my life, addicted to drugs, food, and alcohol. By implementing the habits I’m going to share today, I completely turned my health around, got in the best shape of my life, earned a master’s degree in Finance, have my own fitness website and podcast, am starting a family, and crushing every day with energy I never had before. The habits I incorporate each day fuel me with the power to pursue all my passions instead of holding me back like they were before. I’m able to live each day to its fullest and be the best, most happy version of myself, because of this daily routine.

Then stay tuned to the end, where Billy shares his famous pesto recipe and my Italian Mom, Mama Failla, shares two sauces you can make with a bounty from the garden.  Cooking food that I’ve grown myself has been one of the most rewarding parts of my plant parenthood journey, I hope this episodes not only gets you growing but gets you cooking too!

Today I'm interviewing Amanda Kanashiro, the blogger behind Eat at Our Table, a food blog dedicated to helping others live a gluten free lifestyle. Several years ago, Amanda was diagnosed with celiac disease, which requires a strict gluten free diet. While she was heartbroken over the food she could no longer eat, Amanda decided that she would start a blog to share all the dishes that she was learning to recreate gluten-free, especially the Peruvian dishes from her husband's family. Since then, Amanda's family and her blog have grown together. She now works full time as a food blogger and has discovered through blogging a community of friends and fellow autoimmune patients that view her blog as a resource. For Amanda, she hopes that her blog provides people with great recipes, but also information that helps them confidently live gluten-free without feeling like they're missing out.   Find Amanda: Website Email Instagram Facebook Twitter Pinterest   Recipes Mentioned in the Show Peruvian Beef Stew – Seco de Res Peruvian Arroz con Pollo Aji Amarillo – Hot Yellow Pepper Paste Huancaina Sauce   Come Visit BFF with the Chef: The BFF with the Chef Website Twitter Facebook Instagram

In the second edition of This Day in Diet History, we look back at my diet during January of 2011 and compare it to today. This period of time was 1 year following my 90-lb weight loss. Although I had made a major change to my health by dropping the weight, my diet was far from perfect, and I had a lot to learn. We also dive into my current diet today, 2019 resolutions, and look at all the craziness that took place over the holidays. I can say with conviction that I fully enjoyed myself – Not because I’m planning to revert to my old junk food eating self, but to live a little bit while also proving the point that you don’t have to sacrifice all of the things you love in order to get the body you want. We can still treat ourselves from time to time and achieve an optimal level of health. That’s what today’s episode is meant to illuminate. Full details and show notes over at Wise-Eats.com/Episode5 “The good we do is never lost, it never ends, and it never dies. In other places, in other times, in other people, the good we do lives on forever.” – Matthew Kelly. In 2019, be the spark that sends a ripple effect to the rest of the world and into the future. About “This Day in Diet History”: I’ve been journaling my meals and workouts since March of 2009, and want to bring that history to life with This Day in Diet History. This segment will provide some nutrition tips, entertainment, and hopefully some inspiration for anyone looking to improve their health and fitness. This segment, if nothing else, is meant to provide a visual of where I’ve been and where I am now as someone who has been on both ends of the health spectrum. I was 270lbs with some of the worst lifestyle habits imaginable. Today, I want to be an example of health and fitness and inspire others to transform their lives, as well. I’m by no means perfect, but have reached a place where healthy diet and exercise are non-negotiable aspects of my life, and want everyone around me to have that same gift.

035: Hiking Snacks. Released: May 17, 2018   By special request, Adam and Anne take on the issue of what to eat when you're on a day hike with your LCHF family. News * With the end of the school year approaching fast, and summer around the corner, we will be releasing episodes every other week until September. * Those of you with an Amazon Echo can now use it to listen to LCHF Family. To set it up, say the following, pausing between statements: Alexa, enable the Low Carb, High Fat Podcast. Alexa, stop. When you are ready to listen to the podcast, say, "Alexa, play the Low Carb, High Fat Podcast." * We love the Radical Organics Simply Salted Toasted Coconut Chips so much that we way over-bought them as we left the Philippines, so we're going to spread the love. To claim 4 packages of coconut chips, order from one of our affiliates using the links on the Support the Show page. Send a screen shot of your order to lchf@familypodcasts.com. We will confirm the order and send it you your coconut chips. It's that simple! This offer is only available to listeners with mailing addresses in the United States, and it's only available until 10 listeners take advantage of the offer or until September 1, whichever comes first. Recommendations Made in the Show When planning food for your hike, you need to consider whether the participants are fat adapted or not. If there are participants who are not yet fat adapted, you should plan some snacks for them that are higher in carbohydrates to prevent problems with low blood sugar. Those who are fat adapted may not need to snack between meals at all, but if they do, they can keep their snacks LCHF. Those who are not fat adapted but still hoping to avoid added sugars and processed foods are in luck: keep scrolling through the snow notes for our reciped for Real Food GORP. Epic Hickory Smoked Uncured Bacon and Pork Bites are a sugar-free jerky option that would work well for those who are fat adapted. Other snack options are individually wrapped cheese or a hunk of a hard cheese like parmesan, asiago, or romano. Olives, hard-boiled eggs, and pickles would all be good options, too. Or, keep scrolling through the show notes for a recipe for a Savory GORP designed for people who are fat adapted. Listen to the episode for more food recommendations!If you're concerned about being able to pack in enough water for your hike, check out the Katadyn BeFree or the LifeStraw. There are more options on the REI site as well. Recipes Mentioned in the Show Real Food GORP A filling, flavorful GORP everyone in the family will love, designed especially for those who are not yet fat adapted. Free from inflammatory peanuts, industrial oils, sweeteners, and added sugars. 1 Tbsp Coconut oil 1 cup cashews, roughly chopped 1/2 cup pecans or walnuts, roughly chopped 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds 1/2 cup toasted coconut chips 1 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 cup raisins 1/2 cup dried cranberries, unsweetened (optional) Melt the coconut oil in a 10" skillet over medium-high heat. Add nuts, seeds, and coconut chips to the skillet. Stir until warm and well-coated with the coconut oil. Sprinkle the mixture with cinnamon and salt and stir until evenly coated. Remove from heat and spread the mixture on a cookie sheet to cool quickly.  Stir in the raisins and optional dried cranberries. Store in an air-tight container when completely cool.   LCHF GORP A healthier GORP option for those who are already fat-adapted. 1 Tbsp coconut oil 1 cup walnuts, macadamias, or pecans, roughly chopped 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds 1/2 cup toasted coconut chips 1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning 1 tsp salt 1 cup cheddar Whisps, or all-cheese cracker of your choice, coarsely chopped Heat coconut oil in a 10" skillet over medium-high heat. Add nuts, seeds, and coconut chips to the skillet. Stir until warm and well coated in the oil. Sprinkle the mixture with Italian seasoning and salt. Stir until well combined. Remove from heat and spread the GORP on a cookie sheet to cool quickly. Stir in chopped Whisps. Store in an air-tight container when completely cool. Best Option Another double header! Your best option when you are out and about and hav to feed the family and all you have available is a Wendy's: Either a Baconator with no bun, mayo, ketchup, or cheese OR the Dave's Triple with no bun, mayo, ketchup, or cheese. With either option, you can try asking if they will replace the American cheese with Asiago, but we haven't tried it, so we don't know if they will allow the substitution. Your best option for food when you only have a Dunkin Donuts? Literally nothing. If you need a drink, opt for bottled water, black coffee (hot or cold), or coffee with cream (hot or cold).
