Thank you for joining me this week for a quick solo episode. Today I want to talk about self-care. How do you define self-care? We see it on social media #selfcare with a variety of posts from selfies, beauty products, workouts, trips, Botox, skin care products, purchases, and many others. We talk about nurturing versus numbing self-care habits as the #selfcare may get a little muddled.
Self-care is a part of caring for yourself to feel better (each day). That is why I want to redefine self-care and discuss DAILY self-care habits. I have narrowed down 5 main points for DAILY self-care habits to keep your eating and moving habits consistent.
These main points keep your body and mind in balance to help you feel your best! If one area is missing, you get thrown off balance for the day. Learn how to achieve balance in your daily life with these important steps in making you and your health your highest priority!
Bonus episode from an IG Live, sharing 5 products I am loving! These products make my life easier, healthier, and just taste delicious!
They are packed with nutrition and a great to grab on-the-go or help satisfy the toughest craving.
What's in this episode:
How to use each product
Health benefits
Why they make my life easier
Satisfy cravings
Nourishing
And more!

Welcome back, today we talk with registered dietitian, Tara Moran from nutrition thyme with Tara on Instagram.
One of the best things about talking with other registered dietitians, they each have their own take on healthy eating including a variety of tips, healthy hacks and whatever they have found to help click with their clients and even friends and family members, Tara share so much in this episode.
I titled this episode the missing link, what is the missing link that lays the groundwork to sustainable healthy habits? There is a group of words that Tara keeps repeating in our conversation and those key words are small and slow. She gives several examples on how she helps her clients set small slow goals, meeting them where they are at and starting with baby steps to incorporate habits that stick. Tara focuses on finding what works for them and getting away from diet culture’s one-size-fits-all type of program with restrictive eating. Join us for this conversation.

What is overeating? How do you describe the physical cues of overeating? Is overeating different on a normal day versus a holiday or celebration? How do you quiet those voices about what you think about overeating?
Well, to many overeating relates to the physical fullness, like you might see after a holiday meal. Feeling extremely full, even changing into sweat pants, but the question for many is how to prevent it or how to make up for it after overeating. Some people have the mindset they must skip meals during the day and save their calories for the big meal. Or workout hard and burn off all those calories either you are going to consume or already consumed.
This episode a recording of an IG Live I was able to do with my dietitian friend, Karina Tolentino, RD @allfoodsfit.nutritionist. Karina has been on the show before back in February, Ep. 17. Fasting, Carbs, Detoxing, Oh My!
Karina and I have 7 seven strategies to tackle those thoughts, feelings, and emotions that come with overeating. We talk about the how people define overeating and shifting the mindset to a sustainable balanced eating approach. Join us for this conversation!

This episode will get you thinking . . . thinking about those little voices in your head that tell you “Stop you can’t eat that because you will gain weight” or "You can’t eat that it has too many carbs!" or "You can’t eat now, you need to wait." I laugh because I think we have all heard these voice at some point in our life. That little voice, what we call our inner food critic, or maybe you call it your inner “food police”, those thoughts when you are telling yourself the rules and restrictions we have learned from diet culture.
This insight about the food critic comes from a wonderful non-diet dietitian, Rachel @everyglownutrition. Rachel’s personalized approach is to help her clients trust their intuition in making daily choices that support their total well-being. Rachel shares great tips on this episode as we talk about:

Dietitians are reaching more people by being in a variety of jobs that help bridge the gap in nutrition education. Dietitians have been in the grocery stores for about 20+ years and the job opportunities have ebbed and flowed in this setting through the years, but they are still providing exceptional services to their customers.
On this episode I am talking with Hy-Vee dietitian, Ashley Danielson. Hy-Vee grocery stores are located in the Midwest, but I know other retailers across the country provide similar services. (*Make note, a dietitian may be referred to as a nutritionist, but all nutritionists are not dietitians. There are differences in education and legal differences between the two titles. DM for more info.)
We talk about a variety of services a retail dietitian provides, and how they connect to more people that need help and answer questions from simple nutritious meal planning ideas to managing blood sugars for diabetes, to food allergies, and so much more.
Our guest, Ashley loves to educate customers and clients in a fun and lively setting with simple ways to incorporate delicious food into everyday life. As a food and nutrition expert, Ashley is dedicated to helping people live healthier and happier every step of the way. Join us of this conversation.

I wish there was a mindset switch to turn on and ditch diet culture by instantly thinking and eating intuitively. One and done, but that is not always the case. As intuitive eating become more and more popular the principles become a little twisted depending on which influencer you may see, and that is why I wanted to talk with registered dietitian, Lisa Schrader, MS, RDN, LDN @thoughtfullyfueled on Instagram.

As the studies show, intuitive eating is an extremely effective way to make peace with food and the body, and sometimes the path can be all over the place.
Lisa explains a few of the principles of intuitive eating and answers many questions:
Will I gain weight eating what I want?
How to go from intermittent fasting to intuitive eating
How to deal with change
How to deal with bad body image days
And more!
She helps explain how to pivot in your intuitive eating journey. Join us for this conversation.

I discuss the 4 types of hunger, and how we can be aware of them as we make connections with our emotions and food. Join us for today's episode.
