127. The Truth about Calories In, Calories Out, and What You Didn't Know About Fat Loss | with Sam Miller and host Emily Duncan
Ever wondered why you're in what should be a Calorie deficit but fat loss isn't working? Confused with one person on the internet swearing up and down that "Calories in, Calories out" is all that matters, and the next guru saying, "Calories don't matter at all, it's just your hormones"? Yeah, no wonder we're all confused. Until now. Today, I'm here with Sam Miller to clear up the confusion on the realities of Calories in/Calories out, factors that effect Calories out that you may not be seeing, how to assess your SHREDS biofeedback for better progress, and how to use nutritional periodization to help you reach your fitness and fat loss goals for good.

125. Better Goal Setting Strategies for the New Year | with host Emily Duncan
It's the most wonderful time of the year... or is it? I know there are a lot of differing opinions on setting New Years Goals/Resolutions. Some people love it, some people think it's pointless and that a date shouldn't matter. I personally am totally cool with meaningful date-or-event-based goal setting (pssst - there's actually some science to it, too). In today's episode, I want to help give you the framework for not just setting better goals, but for developing better STRATEGIES to plan for, execute, and reach those goals. Long story short: I want 2022 to be the year you go after it and get it. Interested in working with EDF Coaching to reach your fitness and lifestyle goals? Click here to inquire!

123. Making Meditation and Mental Health Cool, Simple, and Exciting | with Sarah McDevitt
Meditation, breathwork, and mindfulness practices are some of the most effective AND accessible practices for your mental and physical wellbeing... but so many people don't know where to start. This episode is here to help you bridge that gap by hearing about the amazing story and evolution of Sarah McDevitt of Core. Sarah McDevitt joined Hyperice in July 2021 as the head of the newly created Mind Technologies Division, following the company’s acquisition of Core. Sarah founded and served as the CEO of Core with the goal of making effective mental wellness support an accessible foundation of everyday life. After playing basketball in college for New York University and then starting her career at Microsoft, Sarah was taken aback by an unexpected bout of anxiety that she had never experienced. She found personal relief in meditation but discovered it was challenging to make it a regular, long-term habit and wanted to better understand the science behind it. Inspired by the power of meditation and similar practices that impact both mental and physical health, she went on to research mental well-being while earning a Master’s degree at Stanford University. Core gives you the power to develop a breathwork + meditation practice for any and all of your needs, whether it's increased calm, decreased anxiety, increased energy, or increased focus, while ALSO providing you with the empowerment of biometric data to help track your nervous system's changes over time.

119. Gathering Bones: Reflections on Intuition and Inner Alignment | with host Emily Duncan
Goooood morning EMBody Radio family! Today we're here for the first solo episode in a long time. For today's show, I wanted to dig into some reflections from my readings and notes from a book that has been changing my life: "Women Who Run With the Wolves" by Clarissa Pinkola Estes, PhD. This episode in particular is reviewing the story of La Loba, The Wolf Woman, the collector of bones. I'm digging into my reflections from this story and how it's played out in my life in real time (including some of my experiences in Sedona), some of the heavy emotions it's been guiding me through, and some of the "bones" of my own that I've been gathering. I've also included some question prompts for YOU all and I really invite you to sit (preferably with a nice cup of tea or coffee or whatever your thing is) and journal/reflect on them to improve your own self understanding, intuition, and inner alignment. I hope you enjoy and you learn something about yourself. Thank you for listening. ---- Interested in working with EDF Coaching to reach your fitness and lifestyle goals? Click here to inquire!
