Gluten-Free vs Grain-Free. Organic vs Pastured. Eco-Friendly vs Safer vs Chemical Free vs Green vs Sustainable.

Its confusing to know what all these terms mean, right (we know because they’re some of the most frequently asked questions that we get)?!

In this week’s podcast episode, I’m joined by my good friend Katie Leadbetter of @cleaneatingwithkatie for a casual conversation as we debunk these terms and offer our thoughts on navigating around them.

In the final installment of this mini-series, we explore Tiers 3 and 4 of the Functional Nutrition Framework.

If your health concerns aren’t resolved in Tiers 1 and 2, there’s likely some complicated dysfunction happening. You’ll hear how in Tier 3, we look to add an Integrative or Functional Medicine doctor to the partnership if one isn’t already involved. I share:

• How I found the functional and integrative doctors 

• How I guide my clients to find one to work with them no matter where in the world they’re located

• What to consider when selecting one

After resolving your health problems in Tiers 1, 2 or 3, we move to Tier 4 and maintaining your new normal. I share my new normal is and how I maintain it seasonally.

Continuing the mini-series on the Functional Nutrition Framework, after building a solid foundation for health in Tier 1 (Episode 093), this week, we explore what to do if your health concerns aren’t fully resolved after working in Tier 1.

In Tier 2, the next step of the framework, we move into deeper work through assessing and tracking to determine the best course of action to create a solid nutritional infrastructure that’s built on the foundation you established in Tier 1.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Personal stories on how I to do more advanced work in Tier 2 as I navigated through IBS, SIBO and the Low FODMAPS diet

• How to systematically assess and track

• Where lab tests and supplements fit into the framework

Would you run before you can walk? Just like you can’t exercise your way out of a bad diet, you also can’t medicate or even supplement your way out of one either.

If you want to address the root causes of your health complaints and find a resolution for them, then the environment that your symptoms and illness manifested itself in needs to be addressed.

A sensible, flexible and bio-individual way to do this is through the Functional Nutrition framework. This is the framework that I’ve structured my health coaching services around and take all of my clients through.

So in this new mini-series of The Live FAB Life Podcast, I’m walking you through each step of this framework. In this first episode you’ll hear: 

• Why its critical to establish a solid foundation by removing obstacles to health and healing by taking care of the non-negotiables

• What the non-negotiables are

• How to start addressing the

This week marks the second anniversary of The Live FAB Life Podcast!

In this episode, I discuss having an epiphany, with the help of some friends, on my unique position to help women in tech bring health and wellness to the forefront of their careers and lives.

You'll hear me share my work experience of working in startups to large corporate environments, the different stressors I experienced and how being micro-managed directly impacted my health and how I learned to reframe and deal with the situation for the better.

In this episode, I’m joined by frequent guest (she’s been a guest here on the show more than anyone else) and friend of the program Katie Leadbetter and Alyssa Carrie.

Katie and Alyssa are both certified holistic Nutrition Consultants, 21-Day Sugar Detox Coaches, and they’re both very young cancer survivors.

Katie was on the show last October, specifically in Episodes 056, 057 and 058, sharing her experience of surviving stage 2B Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Breast Cancer which she has been in remission for almost five years.

Alyssa was diagnosed with Lymphoma a year ago at the age of 26 and thankfully is also in remission. 

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Alyssa share her cancer story for the very first time. She shares how vital the Ketogenic diet was in her healing, as well as how she partnered with her oncologist to trace her steps to identify the root cause of her cancer.

• You’ll also hear them both share how important self-care and personal growth was during their respective treatments 

• What went well during their treatments and what they found lacking

• And how they’re filling that gap for cancer patients by collaborating on a new program they’ve created that launches in just a few weeks called, “The Cancer Survivor’s Course.”

It takes a special kind of vulnerability to share such personal experiences and I’m grateful that these women are brave enough to do so.

What role does finances play in making healthcare decisions? How much of a factor is it in your overall stress load? What’s your mindset around money?

Finances are at the center of our health and wellness yet one that we may be difficult to address and easily avoided.

Joining me to have a frank discussion on financial wellness is Bre Bauer. Bre is a self-proclaimed “Budget Nerd”, who spent years in a cycle of accumulating consumer debt and then working her tail off to pay it off.  

It wasn’t until she changed her awareness and behaviors around her money mindset and spending habits that she was truly able to become and remain debt-free.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Mistakes and misconceptions around money and finances

• What budgeting means and what it doesn’t mean

• The importance of building awareness around your spending habits

• How to budget with a variable income

• How to build a healthy money mindset

• And a whole lot more!
