Wellness While Walking
Carolyn Cohen
Welcome! Each episode of Wellness While Walking addresses the real health concerns you're facing:
• metabolism shifts and blood sugar spikes/weight gain
• establishing sustainable habits despite crazy-busy schedules
• adapting movement regimens (featuring walking!*) to work for you… in a fun way!
• implementing doable nutrition approaches that work with your midlife body and life
Hi, I'm Carolyn, a Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach of almost 20 years.
I was a health-rejectionist! I didn't think it mattered what our lifestyles were like – I even doubled down on this approach, working in the ultra-processed foods industry for a decade (and gained a lot of weight and was fatigued all the time, but I didn't connect the dots!) But then I got very sick. And my young children did, too. I started to open up to the idea that what we ate, how (if!) we moved, how we slept and more – how it did matter! I "walked back" my chronic disease diagnoses and my kids healed.
After over a decade of health coaching people in their midlife years, I also noticed another trend – that of extremes! Folks rejected things like walking and eating largely whole foods for their more intense counterparts, like running and "eating clean." I knew that I needed to fight this, because there are lots of health-conferring points in between on the spectrum, and I'm all about capitalizing on the low hanging fruit by taking small steps that we'll actually do and enjoy!
I do think we need to fight societal norms that leave us unhealthy – we call that "walking against traffic" – but this can be a moderate, doable, fun and effective path! Getting this word out to the wider audience beyond my clientele led me to introduce the Wellness While Walking Podcast in January of 2020, and we've been going strong since!
I hope you'll join me, Health Coach Carolyn, for Wellness While Walking—your 30-minute movement companion that delivers research-backed strategies for weight management, metabolic health, healing chronic conditions and extending your healthspan in a motivating, compassionate format!
Whether you're seeking accountability for consistent action, clarity on conflicting health advice, or gentle guidance for aging vibrantly, Wellness While Walking meets you where you are with understanding and actionable solutions.
By the end of each episode, you'll feel physically energized, mentally renewed, and equipped with clear next steps—having moved, learned, laughed, and found the motivation to take the next meaningful step on your health journey! (*Did I mention that we play a beep halfway through so you know when to turn around if you're walking while listening?!)
Today is a terrific day to start so press "Follow" and then "Play," and let's do this, together!

57. Getting Our Brains On Our Own Team with Dr. Austin Perlmutter, Co-Author of Brain Wash (Pt. 1)
Our brains aren't functioning properly, and this has a tremendous impact on our day-to-day decisions and lives. Dr. Austin Perlmutter shares with us – in an understandable way – what's going wrong in our brains, and how that leaves us stuck and disconnected. We dive into the book he's co-written with his father, Brain Wash: Detox Your Mind for Clearer Thinking, Deeper Relationships, and Lasting Happiness. Don't miss this critical conversation, where we touch on empathy, narcissism, nature, eating, sleeping, our focus and attention, and the optimism we should have about getting our brain on our team!

56. 3 Fats Facts + Clubhouse App + No Comparison!
We tackle some fat fears and falsities, trying to make up for the decades when dietary fats were demonized.

PreAmble #2: One Last Look at Your 2020
In this PreAmble episode, where I catch you briefly before you walk or otherwise do your thing, I urge one last look back at 2020 as we turn toward the future. Happy new year to you! See you in 2021!

What were you proud of? What didn't go well? What plans or goals weren't realized? How are you different from how you were this time last year? If you could give your experience of 2020 its own tagline, what would it be? What were your most meaningful moments? Are there any lessons learned this past year – some big groundbreaking a-ha moments or some smaller insights? How did you have fun? What drained you? What invigorated you? What did you let go of this year? If you had to pat yourself on the back for something you did – or didn't do – this year, what would that be? What was the best thing that happened? What was something small that you did frequently and made a big difference? What did you try for the first time? What are you grateful for this past year in particular? If you had to write a tag line for 2020, what would it be? What's something that -- now that you consider the above -- you need to change for the coming year?
