Boss Bitch Radio w/IFBB Pro, Diane Flores

Hey, hey, hey we love carbs don't we?? Here's what I chatted about today: Firstly BossBitch Radio is brought to you by Venus Fitness Studio and our 12 week diet coaching program #DitchDeprivation.  Why do we need carbs? Should you lift without eating carbs first thing in the morning? Pre and post workout carbs? My fave carbs Meal timing and it's effects on training How many meals per day? Carbs at bedtime? Will it make you gain fat? Why is white bread considered "bad"? Why are people so scared of carbs? The LOADS of hidden calories you are missing Stop being romanticized by Keto "Why can't I eat carbs?" What's the highest you've ever taken a client's carbs? Want to work with us on diet coaching?

In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, I sit down with Angie Bailey, a former nurse who completely reinvented her life through creativity and calligraphy. After 25 years in nursing and battling Hashimoto's and burnout, Angie rediscovered her passion for art and founded Calming Calligraphy turning her healing hobby into a thriving business! We talk about how slowing down, letting yourself play, and reconnecting with your creativity can become a powerful tool for mindfulness and stress relief. Angie's story is proof that burnout can be the redirection you didn't know you needed. If you've ever felt stuck, overworked, or like you've lost your spark, this episode will remind you that your creativity isn't gone - it's just waiting for you to remember it!

In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, we're talking about why your mindset - not just your meal plan or workout - determines how far you go. I'm bringing you inside a real call from my Healthy and Hot Method membership, where we're diving into 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do by Amy Morin. We unpack how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors shape everything from your confidence to your consistency, and why mental strength is the foundation for setting boundaries, staying focused, and showing up for yourself especially when life gets messy. If you've ever found yourself stuck in self-doubt, people-pleasing, or "starting over" mode, this conversation will help you step into your power and finally make yourself a front-burner priority. You've been running on empty long enough.

If you've ever caught yourself saying "yes" when you really wanted to say "no," this episode is 100% for you. I'm diving into one of the biggest mindset blocks I see inside my Healthy and Hot Method membership - people pleasing and how it's quietly draining your energy, wrecking your routines, and keeping you stuck! In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, I'm pulling back the curtain on a private members-only coaching call where we talk all about boundaries, why women struggle to stay consistent, and how to start saying "no" without feeling guilty. I also share lessons from "13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do" by Amy Morin, including how to stop worrying about what everyone thinks and start showing up for yourself unapologetically.

Behind the scenes of Day 4 of the Healthy & Hot Reset! In this episode, I'm diving into one of the biggest midlife struggles women face - nutrition. We talk about cravings, consistency, and that mental tug-of-war I call the ping pong game, the back-and-forth between your old habits and the woman you're becoming. You'll also hear a powerful visualization I use to help women break free from all-or-nothing thinking and start making aligned, confident decisions about food, health, and body goals. ✨Ready to join us inside the Healthy & Hot Method?

Money, mindset, and midlife awakenings - we're going there today. In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, I sit down with financial expert, author, and coach Lisa Chastain, who's on a mission to help women transform their relationship with money. Lisa opens up about growing up in a blue-collar family in Las Vegas, following the "perfect life script," and realizing in her 30s that she was living a life that wasn't truly hers. From breaking free of a loveless marriage to building her own business helping women find financial freedom - her story is real, raw, and relatable. Don't miss this! Lisa is leading a powerful event on October 9th that's part of a national movement for women ready to rise.  #MoneyMindset #FinancialFreedom #WomenEmpowerment    Key Takeaways: 00:00 Kicking things off: Money & self-investment 00:27 Welcome back to Boss Bitch Radio 01:07 Meet today's guest - Lisa Chastain 02:43 Lisa's story: from blue-collar roots to financial expert 04:01 Breaking free from money struggles 05:51 Letting go of self-limiting beliefs 14:04 Why investing in yourself matters 16:30 It's never too late to change your money story 17:08 Facing fears and owning your success 17:53 Rethinking money: a renewable resource 18:38 How mindset shapes your financial reality 18:54 Using NLP to break negative money patterns 20:18 Building confidence, worthiness, and wealth 25:55 Real-world tips for managing your money 29:17 Empowering women & leading with purpose 30:30 Lisa's upcoming event + final thoughts Links Mentioned:  Follow Lisa on Instagram: @lisachastain4 https://www.instagram.com/savvymoneywithlisa/?hl=en Grab her new book "Stop Budgeting, Start Living" Check out her website: https://lisachastain.com/ Tune in to her podcast: https://lisachastain.com/podcast/ Join us in the Healthy and Hot Method!

In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, we're talking about the real stuff women face in midlife when it comes to health and fitness - the perfectionism that keeps you stuck, feeling like everyone's watching you at the gym, managing stress without burning out, and what to do when your partner just doesn't seem to support your goals. If you've ever felt like you have to "do it all" or that you're failing if it's not perfect, this one's for you. We're breaking down why perfectionism isn't your personality - it's a learned coping skill and how to finally loosen that grip so you can actually make progress and feel good doing it. In this episode, we dive into: Perfectionism & unrealistic expectations Gym intimidation & building confidence Self-compassion & stress management Partners not on board with your goals Grab your coffee, get comfy, and let's get real about what it actually takes to stay consistent, confident, and sane while working on your goals in midlife. ✨Ready to join us inside the Healthy & Hot Method?

Ever feel like your cravings run the show or like no matter what you try, you just can't stay consistent? You're not alone, babe. In this episode, I'm giving you a behind-the-scenes look at one of our VIP Reset coaching calls where we went deep on:  ✨ My bodybuilding story of working out 3x per week and still building an award-winning body ✨ Menopause symptoms, stressors, why some workouts wreck your thyroid, and my SCULPT formula ✨ Cravings, fiber, protein, sweet breakfasts, and my personal story of sugar addiction ✨ Action steps you can take now: try a savory breakfast, track your fiber, and aim for 3 workouts per week This isn't about "willpower" or "discipline." It's about understanding your body, your hormones, and how to finally work with them instead of against them.
