KNP82 - This Is What Grit Looks Like - Michelle's 75 Hard Journey
Want to know what grit, determination and perseverance looks like? Michelle was today's guest instead of her regular co-host role. She just completed #75 Hard, 2% of people actually make it to the end. For those not familiar with 75 Hard, it is 75 days straight of the following: (2) 45 minute workouts - One has to be outside 1 gallon of water 10 pages of self development reading Progress Picture Daily No alcohol Pick a nutrition plan, and stick to it 100% If you skip a day on ANY of these things, you go back to day ONE. Let me remind you, estimated that only 2% make it all the way to the end. So when she first informed me she was doing it, I thought it could be a good jump start on her fitness for her. That's about as far as I went with that. It turns out, aesthetic results were just the icing on the cake for what she got out of this! She fundamentally became a better human being. She began to deploy more empathy. She stopped taking things so personal. She began to build self esteem day-by-day, simply because she felt good about how she was showing up in life! I'm not saying to do 75 Hard, what I'm saying is find something that will challenge you physically, mentally and spiritually and GO FOR IT! When it seems dark, just keep going. The lessons along the way are invaluable. This fitness thing is so much bigger than your looks. It teaches you discipline, grit, determination, and tenacity. This whole thing showed Michelle she CAN indeed do SUPER hard shit. She is capable of putting her mind to a task that seems impossible, and make it out on the other end the winner she truly is. This was a non-negotiable to her. She was set on finishing this. So she did simply that, she finished it. Get ready to be crazy motivated!

KNP79 - Biceps After Babies with Amber Brueseke
Amber Brueseke started the Instagram name Biceps After Babies with no intentions of monetizing it. She started it to show other women you can indeed get biceps after babies! She truly wanted to create impact and provide value. What grew from it is something she honestly did not expect. She self taught herself how to track macros and through that, began helping other people transform their bodies through macros! We talked about what freedom she has found through macros and the balance it has created in her life. Amber also talked about her journey of bulking for a whole year, eating 300 carbs a day. Such a good message for women to hear along with the progressive overload/pros and cons of cross fit. Amber is also a fellow podcaster, so flowing with her was so effortless.

KNP77 - Big Mac Challenge and Being Gary Vee's Trainer - With Jordan Syatt
Today's episode featured none other than Mr. Jordan Syatt. Jordan is most well know for being Gary Vaynerchuk's personal trainer, but long before that was in the throws of fitness and nutrition. With a background in strength work at Westside Barbell, Jordan began writing blogs years ago with the intent of simply just providing value. One of those blogs, which was ironically one of his least popular, is what caught the eye of Gary's old trainer Mike, and untimely landed him the job with Gary. We explored his recently release documentary the "The Big Mac Challenge". This is hands down of the best documentary's I have ever seen. It's not what you might think. The documentary had me laughing along the way, and extremely moved and touched by the end. Get the behind the scenes preview first hand, here on the Key Nutrition Podcast.

KNP75 - Free Yourself With Emotion Coaching With Altee Dapper
I was honored to sit down with two of my very good friends today to discuss exactly what emotion coaching is. We dove into the science behind The Emotion Code, a book and system developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson, and how she is applying that to help heal individuals. If you have ever had any emotional trauma , which we ALL have, you might be holding on to emotional blocks that are limiting your relationships, your fitness, and your overall happiness! Altee is such a special soul, her ability to connect with others and help rid themselves of negative tapped emotions is absolutely amazing. Give this episode a full listen and I promise any bias you have against energy work, might just change. For more information or to schedule a free 30-minute consultation, visit her website www.MyHealingWorks.com Altee's Bio I am a certified Emotion Code practitioner who has found passion and purpose in helping those who are suffering from trauma and emotional baggage. It is my desire to help those who are looking to develop into the best and purest versions of themselves. I have always had an interest in human behavior and how individual experiences impact the way people show up and react in certain situations. Throughout my life I have always been an observer. Friends and family have identified me as an understanding listener that can bring clarity and calmness to difficult situations. I am able to easily identify people's motives and actions without judgement or criticism. My mother-in-law presented me with the Emotion Code. She had attended several of Bradley Nelson's seminars and shared the practices with me and my children. Whenever she did work with my family, the heaviness of burdens was lifted and we experienced feelings of peace. In April 2019, I was able to attend one of Bradley's seminars to learn how to perform the healing modalities of the Emotion Code/Body Code. Combining this education with my natural ability to understand and care for others has led me to pursue a purpose of helping as many people as I can move past life blocks and challenges."
