When Thought Work Isn't Working
In this episode, we explore why, despite our best efforts, thought work sometimes falls short. You might be doing everything right—focusing on affirmations and mindset shifts—but still feel stuck. Today, we’re diving into something I’ve experienced personally, and I see a lot of my clients struggling with too: why thought work sometimes doesn’t seem to work. You’re doing all the mindset work, trying to be in control of your thoughts, but it’s just not getting you the results you want. Sound familiar? It took me a while to figure this out, but I found the answer: Thought work is powerful, but there’s something even more powerful that can override it: our nervous system. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why thought work sometimes isn’t enough to break negative habits How your nervous system can override your thoughts during stress The role of the nervous system in controlling your actions and reactions The concept of "home base" and how to regulate your nervous system Why food, overeating, and stress are linked to your body’s survival response Practical steps to bring your nervous system back to a calm, balanced state How to combine thought work with nervous system regulation for lasting change FEATURED ON THE SHOW Would you do me a favor?

The Secret to a Life of Joy
In this episode, I dive into something that’s been on my mind ever since I heard President Nelson say, “This is the secret to a life of joy.” As someone who’s all about joy, that caught my attention. He said the secret is to come unto Christ and offer our whole soul to Him, which got me thinking—what does it mean to offer our soul? I realized that our soul is made up of both our body and spirit, so I started asking myself how I’m caring for these two parts of me. I’ll walk you through how I broke this down: what a healthy body looks and feels like, and what a healthy spirit means to me. I also share a beautiful moment I witnessed during my daughter’s labor— If you’ve ever wondered how to truly live a life filled with joy, this episode will give you some practical insights and a fresh perspective. In this episode, you’ll learn: How to reflect on where you’re giving your time, energy, and focus in life. The importance of caring for both your body and spirit. Practical tips on maintaining a healthy body and nourishing your spirit. How supporting and uplifting others can enhance your own joy. A touching story about witnessing women empowering each other during childbirth, and its deeper message about community. FEATURED ON THE SHOW Would you do me a favor?

WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER Supportive vs. Forcing: The episode begins by addressing common frustrations with weight loss, such as stalled progress despite efforts. The key message is that the body needs supportive conditions to release weight effectively. Forcing weight loss through extreme calorie cuts or over-exercise creates an environment where the body feels unsafe and resistant to change. Holistic Approach: Weight loss isn't just about physical health. It encompasses emotional, mental, spiritual, and social well-being. The body needs a safe and supportive environment, which includes adequate sleep, hydration, stress management, compassionate self-talk, and gentle eating practices. Foundational Habits (Fundies): The episode outlines essential habits to foster a supportive environment for weight loss: Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of restful sleep to allow the body to repair and manage weight effectively. Water: Drink at least 64 ounces of water daily to stay hydrated and avoid cravings. Stress Management: Implement practices like gratitude, deep breathing, and uplifting activities to manage stress and maintain balance. Compassionate Thinking: Practice positive self-talk and view challenges with kindness to avoid emotional eating and self-sabotage. Gentle Eating: Focus on eating when hungry, choosing nourishing foods, and stopping when full, while avoiding emotional eating. FEATURED ON THE SHOW Would you do me a favor?

Epectation Misery
Today I'm talking about a common thing that all of us do where we have expectations of people, sometimes called "a manual”. We want them to think, feel, and act a certain way. The problem- people aren’t very good at being who we think they should be. Holding onto our "manuals", expecting our kids and others to be who we want them to be, just causes us a lot of unnecessary misery. Believing someone should be different than they are, feels like love. It feels like we’re just trying to be a good mom (wife, daughter, friend, etc.) by looking out for them, but what we aren’t seeing is the misery we’re inflicting on ourselves in the process of trying to control and change them. Join me on the podcast this week as I highlight how we hold onto our joy-sucking manuals, and why letting them go is the key to becoming A Joyful You - happier, healthier, confident, as well as improving all the relationships in your life.

Today we're diving into your thoughts about your summer body. Are you unhappy with your body image? If so, you’re not alone. Body image isn’t something we just came up with ourselves. It’s something that's been conditioned by society. We've been told in many ways that our bodies are unacceptable as they are, that we should be ashamed of them, and that they need fixing especially during the summer.

Weight Loss By Degrees
06/13/2024
Weight Loss By Degrees
I have been a coach for 6 years now and I’ve helped 100’s of women and a few men, and the number one thing my clients want help working on is weight loss. So many have tried diet after diet and they’re left frustrated. They started out hopeful, but eventually they grew to hate it because it’s hard and miserable. When it comes to losing weight so many people focus only know to focus on the food piece, trying to change what and how much they eat. But what I’ve come to realize is that changing what you eat is actually the last piece of the puzzle. There is so much more that needs to be addressed first. Once you address these things, then the food part becomes so much easier! And there’s not the constant battle going on. So instead of just jumping all in and trying to do a complete 180 degree overhaul of your life trying to do and eat all the things perfectly all at once to lose weight, I promote working on weight loss by degrees. And more specifically, just one degree, one tiny percent, at a time. On this episode I'm sharing my framework for weight loss. WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER: How and why weight loss by degrees works. Rachael's framework for weight loss What it means to be a "normal" eater What things effect and influence our weight Why past diets didn't work and what will FEATURED ON THE SHOW: Would you do me a favor?

Sabotaging Self-Doubt

Sabotaging Self-Doubt
When you're working towards a goal, it always starts out really well. You’re excited, you have energy, you believe you’re going to do it, you can see the finish line and how awesome everything is going to be. But then. . . a week later, a few days later, maybe even an hour later something happens, the excitement fizzles out and a lot of times, self-doubt takes its place. And you start thinking thoughts like: "I'm not capable." "I'm behind." "I should be better at this by now." "I’ve tried this 100 times before and failed-why would this time be any different?" "I can't do this." These thoughts are normal. It doesn't mean you're broken and doomed to fail. But if we don't know what's really going on, we'll sabotage ourselves and quit before we reach our goal. In today's episode I share why self-doubt is normal, why we have it, and what to do about it so you don't ever quit on yourself again. CONNECT Could you do me a favor?

Breaking the Emotional Eating Cycle
Do you ever feel like no matter how much you want to eat healthier and get serious about losing weight, there’s just something holding you back? You vow to do better and cut back and stay on track and this time you mean it, only to find yourself right back at square one, feeling like a failure who lacks willpower, don’t despair. I can guarantee the reason this is happening is not because you are weak or even that you lack willpower, the reason you end up in this vicious cycle is because you have an emotional connection with food. The thing I love about habits is that once we understand them, we can, with a little practice, break them. So today I want to teach you about the emotional eating habit cycle and how it works.
