162. "A sugar-free diet increases my energy": Julie
Julie used to eat junk food until a car accident led her to gain weight and feel unwell.That led to her holistic healing journey.She decided to follow a program that required her to weigh and measure her food, but she didn't really understand why she was doing it, she said. What inspired her the most was witnessing her mother's transformation with sugar-free and flour-free living. At first, Julie saw it as "strict", but when she saw all the benefits, she also changed her diet to eat foods that give her energy and make her feel her best.Julie explains how her sugar-free diet clears her channel for energy work and receiving messages, allowing her to better help clients. As a psychic medium, she reports that sugar clouds her abilities and makes sessions more difficult. It's like sugar fogs the messages that she receives.In this episode, Julie describes how the food we eat can help us numb uncomfortable feelings... or ground us, quieten our anxiety, and allow our energy to flow.Want to transform your relationship with sugar and flour and start living your craving-free life with confidence TODAY?

160. "My auto-immune symptoms and my gut health improved so much": Michele
Michele is a busy mom of 4, and a military wife. She's also a personal trainer and health coach. Her journey started after having her third child, when she became so much busier and realized that she was getting out of breath just from climbing the stairs.She started eating better, but a few years after, she started experiencing auto-immune issues (they run in her family). She had all the tests, but she felt that the doctors didn't really offer her non-pharmaceutical solutions. What really helped her was when she started her self-healing holistic approach. She cut out gluten and dairy, because in the USA they're so common in processed foods. Michele also started looking after her gut health. She decided to vastly reduce sugar too. She learned to reframe food so as to nourish her body and feel good, because she used to eat her emotions. Now Michele feels more confident in her food choices and in her identity in general, because she's found what's healthy for her, for her children, and for her future.Find Michele's podcast here: https://www.micheleriechman.com/Want to transform your relationship with sugar and start living your craving-free life with confidence TODAY?
