Have a question you want answered? Submit it here!Here is the best exercise for you to do to see the biggest results in the least amount of time. When you know you need to get in shape but you’re not sure where to begin, the task can seem overwhelming. Fitness expert Jerred Moon breaks things down on an individual level based on a mental “sticking power” assessment he provides to all of his clients. Moon suggests only one new habit at a time is necessary to begin an effective fitness routine, and often this habit revolves around improving nutrition. Often, we strive to change too many aspects in our lives at once and end up injured or burned out, so we don’t continue to improve our fitness. Moon’s garage gym programs, developed inside his company, EO3, meet individuals who want to get in shape where they are currently and develop a program around their individual goals, equipment they have at home, and their exercise interests. Pick an exercise routine that you enjoy, and work your training goals around that.

The Myths and Truths about Fat Loss with Laura Schoenfeld
Have a question you want answered? Submit it here!Do you want to know the real myths and truths about fat loss? This episode will reveal the secrets of healthy and sustainable fat loss...in a way that honors your body.Are you absolutely positive that you’re getting enough nutrition to sustain your body? If your recent attempts at fat loss have resulted in negative physical results, you may not understand exactly what your body truly needs. Over the past several decades, so much information about health has been short-sided and generalized to the point that our current common knowledge base on nutrition may actually be harming our bodies’ systems and prohibiting weight loss or healthy lifestyles. According to today’s guest, Laura Schoenfeld, “one of the biggest challenges women face in any area of their life that they’re struggling [with] is mindset blocks that are preventing them from taking action in a way that would allow them to see results”. Schoenfeld further explains that we have false beliefs about behavior, which can be objective mindsets, but we also have subjective beliefs about who we are. To get healthier, BOTH areas of our lives must be addressed. Today’s episode goes into so much detail on how to get healthier from an entire mindset perspective first and then the specific details of your individual health needs second. Today’s Speaker: Laura Schoenfeld, RD Laura Schoenfeld (SHOW-IN-FELD) is a Registered Dietitian, coach, and women’s health expert trained in Functional Medical nutrition therapy. Her passion is empowering women to nourish their bodies, develop true strength, and ultimately pursue their purpose. Laura guides her clients in identifying and implementing diet and lifestyle changes that allow them to live a healthy, fit, symptom-free life without being consumed by thoughts of food and exercise. She draws from a variety of sources to form her philosophy on nutrition, including ancestral diets, principles of biochemistry, current research, and clinical experience. Recognizing that health goes way beyond diet and exercise, she teaches her clients how to focus on and implement life-changing mental and spiritual health habits as well. Her greatest mission is to help women realize they are more than a body, so they can move past health obsession, and focus on pursuing the purpose they were created for. When she’s not educating and serving her coaching clients and community, Laura loves traveling with her husband, Sundays with her church family, hikes with her dog, beach trips, live music, and heavy weight training.

The Most Important Part of Attraction for a Long-Lasting Relationship with Dr. Joe Beam
Have a question you want answered? Submit it here!Want to know the most important part of attraction for a long-lasting relationship? It's simple...but it's not necessarily easy. In this episode, Dr. Joe Beam breaks down what he has seen work in thousands of couples to build emotional attraction and create strong, healthy relationships.When we examine emotional attraction in any established relationship, we think of this attraction in two types of actions: through things we stop doing, and by things we start doing. Since we can’t build a relationship on what we’re not doing, it becomes more urgent to look at what we’re doing; how we’re providing for another person’s emotional needs. The golden rule, “Do to others as you’d like them to do to you” doesn’t always hold true in emotional attraction. We’re not made to need or want the same things. We are made to build others up according to their needs.It Starts With Attraction Ep. 003: Keys to Emotional Attraction with Dr. Joe BeamToday’s Speaker: Dr. Joe Beam Dr. Beam is an internationally known and respected sexologist and authority on love, marriage and sex.
