    Episode 51: From Dreams to Reality, Pt.2 Life lessons from a Guinness Record holder (ft. Michelle Kakade)

    Episode 51: From Dreams to Reality, Pt.2 Life lessons from a Guinness Record holder (ft. Michelle Kakade) In part 2 of our chat, we dig deep to see what keeps Michelle motivated when she's injured, on a very long run; what her passions are, and what she did during the lockdown. Have you ever had a goal but not sure where to start or wonder if you’d ever accomplish it? Or have you ever had fear of failing stop you from pursuing your goal. Well, we’re going to take you for a ride so that you can take action even when you’re not sure if you can do it. That’s what Michelle Kakade did as she shares how she transformed her identity from being tied to others (by being a daughter, wife, and then mother) to being the Guiness world record holder for the fastest time to run the Indian Golden Quadrilateral, 5968.4 km ( 2709 miles). If you do the math, that’s 142 marathons within 194 days. The funniest part is that she doesn’t consider herself a runner. Crazy right? Did she want to quit at points? You betcha… but she didn’t. She is an everyday Wonder Woman who chose not to stop while being fueled with determination. In spite of suffering along the way, Michelle is a person who doesn’t give up easily and has the capacity to know her limitations especially when it came to listening to her body (and specifically her menstruation but more about that in the episode). Email or DM Dr. Tanya Wylde and I on social media. We would love to hear what your goals are right now as you embrace the seasons of your life from trying to get pregnant or stay pregnant, or postpartum through to menopause.

    Episode 49: Revolutionizing Weight Loss Strategies (ft. David Bedrick)

    Episode 49: Revolutionizing Weight Loss Strategies (ft. David Bedrick) Trauma can lead to shame, which can lead to self-destructive talk and behaviour. David Bedrick is a psychologist that specializes in helping women heal trauma, deal with the self-destructive talk and behaviours, and get their LIVES back! David’s teachings and therapies offer women a chance to see an alternative to looking at our bodies through a lens that others created, one that values where we are and where we want to go, and REMOVE the shame that many have felt for their entire lives. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: What is ‘hunger’, which is more than physical hunger How to change the way you look at yourself To acknowledge that others judge books (you) by the cover, not always aware of the story you carry inside How to reduce self shame Why only 5% of women are successful at sustainably losing weight Why 81% of ten-year-old girls are dieting regardless of their BMI index Why 97% of women have violent voices in their heads about their bodies Why being overweight, even mildly obese, is not a health risk while gaining and losing lots of weight (yo you) is a risk How David’s new book “You Can’t Judge A Body By Its Cover” features 17 stories from bodies impacted by sexism and racism, rape and harsh parental criticism, and by the deepest hungers for an authentic life How David is teaching women to express their power, creativity, beauty, and intelligence with themselves, in relationships, and in the world Why the diet industry amasses over $70 billion, and it banks on women’s body shame and perceived failure around weight AND MORE! David’s Bio: David is a speaker, teacher, and attorney and author of the acclaimed Talking Back to Dr. Phil: Alternatives to Mainstream Psychology and his new book Revisioning Activism: Bringing Depth, Dialogue, and Diversity to Individual and Social Change. David spent eight years on the faculty of the University of Phoenix and has taught for the US Navy, 3M, psychological associations, and small groups. He has received notable awards for teaching, employee development, and legal service to the community.

    Episode 48: Change Your body, Change Your Life (ft. Paul Walker)

    Episode 48: Change Your body, Change Your Life (ft. Paul Walker) Is there room to love ourselves right now and still want to change our bodies? Dr. Tanya and I say yes.  Here’s a fact, I’m 5 foot nothing and don’t exactly have a model like figure, like my counterpart Tanya. I feel pretty good about myself. I know what to wear to accentuate my features. That said, I can stand to tighten up around the middle and am currently working on it.  Instead of believing that "I want to change my body because I’m not good enough as I am" or "I will love myself better when I look a particular way?" Paul Walker was bullied when he was young, partially due to his struggles with weight. Now he runs a successful fitness facility for over 30 years that caters to women, to help them get rid of the negative self talk and truly transform themselves into powerful, unstoppable forces! WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: How to love yourself as you are, while embracing change Why emotion only lasts 90 seconds If it goes longer, why you’re CHOOSING to feel that way Paul’s timeless strength training principles:         - The heavier the resistance, the stronger the muscle         - For maximum results keep the muscle under tension until failure         - If you don't use it, you lose it         - As you get stronger, you must take on more challenging forms of resistance         - Time, patience and consistent resistance = progress. Why Paul’s goal is to push you beyond your goals Why mental and physical health must go hand in hand You get stronger when you put in the reps Mental fitness takes time as well, and be consistent on a daily basis Why postpartum exercise must be gradual AND MORE! Paul’s Bio: Paul Walker is the owner and founder of Integrity Fitness, a nine time award-winning world-class training facility for women. He has graced the fitness industry for over three decades and is a well-known and respected fitness professional in all of Ontario. He has been featured on CP24, City TV, Rogers TV and, various other shows and podcasts. Every year, Paul leads his team to inspire, and motivate over two thousand women achieve fabulous results. “My goal is to teach all my clients something that will help them go beyond their fitness & health goals. I truly believe to my deepest core, that the 5% of the time we needed to invest into our health, dramatically influences the other 95%.” To 📺/🎧 to this episode see link in bio👆 www.embraceyoufirst.com If you would like to be a guest on our podcast, please DM us. #bullying, #fitness, #coach, #emotions, #resistance, #health, #wellness, #training, #mental health, #women, #strength, #gym, #reps, #transformation

    Episode 45 - Should I Take Meds Ever?

    EP 45 - Should I Take Meds Ever? What happens if you have tried everything naturally from under the sun and your headache, back pain, urinary discomfort, depressive symptoms or anxiety or whatever that ails you persist?  Do you stick it out, keep doing what you are doing and hope that your symptoms will magically go away? Or, do you make an appointment with your doctor and then head straight to the closest pharmacy and get medicated? And if you choose the latter, do you feel guilty or bad about yourself for surrendering to pharmaceutical drugs? Let's talk and begin by saying that we don't need to be a martyr. We are human and we can bump up against unexpected challenges which sometimes require more help. Even though Dr. Tanya and I are all about being as natural as possible, we recognize our humanity. Most of the time, we are able to stay healthy with our proactive lifestyle.  That said, we are perfectly imperfect and run into challenges just like any other person. We know that drugs can lead to unwanted side effects. We also know that taking them correctly and understanding the right time, place and way to administer them can reduce the risks. If you are the person that can be au naturel for your whole life, sincere congrats to you.  For the rest of us, there is a right time, place and situation for medications to ease certain issues. Sometimes, leaning into acute situations with pharmaceutical drugs may be the best option. Did she try everything naturally to mitigate her pain and inflammatory reaction? Absolutely. Did she feel bad or wrong reaching out for meds? Absolutely not.  Will she be taking these meds forever? No. She is on the mend because she used the meds.  Thank goodness. She is also getting back to her normal healthy activities such as going for a bike ride with her four year old in the forest. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: When to take meds - are you giving up control by taking them? Fevers - do we treat them & when do we treat them Comfort/discomfort Anxiolytics can be addictive Depression Diabetes and metformin - Vit B12 Fertility medications Advil - gastritis and ulcers Ibuprofen for inflammation, stop the cascade Tylenol - liver issues OHSS or no response to fertility medications AND MORE!
