Grace & Grit Podcast

YOU are an incredibly unique human expression. YOU are here to cause, contribute and inspire things in the world in a way that only you can. And… It is really freaking hard to be a fully expressed human doing the work she feels called to do in the world when you are living in a constant state of illness, reactivity, frustration, and self-doubt. Self-care isn’t about fitting into your skinny jeans and feeling Instagram-worthy on your beach vacation. Self-care is what allows you to show up as your most vibrant self so you can do the most important work of your life. It’s the basecamp for the mountain you are really here to summit. So in this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I explore the basic measure that makes a massive impact on fortifying your chemistry, so you are in the best condition for whatever it is you decide to make this lifetime about.

Our culture LOVES to focus on “weight loss” as the linchpin to improved health, but that is problematic for so many reasons… There are a TON of unhealthy ways to lose weight. It is possible to be thin and metabolically obese. Your lifestyle habits influence your health more than your weight actually does. In this episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I challenge you to drop the “my weight is the problem” storyline and instead, shift your focus to the real problems.

Trying to make a significant change in your life without doing a little prep work (carving out time, making a plan, putting forethought into obstacles that may arise) often makes all the difference between success and failure. Yes, prep takes time. No, prep is not fun and exciting. BUT… Prep makes success so much more likely. Which is why I chose “Preparing to Succeed” as this week’s podcast topic.

There are so many options available when it comes to skincare these days, especially when it comes to treatments for the face. And while we are hearing plenty about treatments like botox, fillers and plastic surgery, we are not hearing enough about the natural treatments available. To help fill that gap, I have invited my friend and facialist extraordinaire, Andrea Fairborn to the Grace & Grit podcast to share with us some very powerful and alternative therapies for honoring the health of your face. We don’t just address skin care in this interview, we also discuss ways to condition the muscles of the face, and how practices like reflexology and even nutrition can help support the health of the face.

I have had Irene Lyon on the Grace & Grit podcast more than any other guest EVER. Why? Because her work has influenced my life and the life of so many of my students in powerful ways. She has a gift for helping people tune into the body, listen to its wisdom, and then respond in ways that serve our wellbeing rather than destroy it. The doors for Irene's 12-week program, Smart Body Smart Mind opens later this month and in this episode, I share my own experience in the program with the hopes that it will give others the courage to take the leap to register as well.

Who you are currently being in the world is a culmination of the things you have practiced so many times you have quite literally become those things. Clients will often say, “that’s just the way I am” as if they are bound to that way of being forever. Not true! If your practices to this point in your life shaped your current state of being, new practices can develop you into a new state. To develop new practices, however, you are going to have to face the truth of your current practices (minus the blame, shame, and judgment). In this episode of the Grace & Grit podcast, I am sharing a few tips and tricks on how to do just that.

I talk a lot in my work about the concept of Buffering, which is when we try to change our emotional landscape with something outside of us. We feel lonely so we eat. We feel bored so we scroll social media. We are stressed or uncomfortable so we drink. The problem with buffering is two-fold: It distracts us from the truth of our life. It has long-term consequences. Buffering with alcohol has some unique consequences I believe for the perimenopausal and menopausal populations, which is the age group I primarily work with. So I could not be more thrilled to be hosting Veronica Valli on the podcast. Veronica Valli is changing the narrative on sobriety. With 21 years of sobriety and 19 years of experience as a recovery coach and psychotherapist, she understands that there is no ONE path to sobriety. I adore Veronica, her message, and her mission and I am excited for you to tune into this conversation that we recently had.

It is downright impossible to create new possibilities for your life if you are living in reaction mode. After all, your reactions are a byproduct of what you have been practicing. So, if you want to generate new outcomes, you have to practice new things, which means getting very intentional about how you live your days. In this week’s episode of the Grace & Grit Podcast, I discuss one of the most important foundational elements of doing just that.
