384: Essential Oils as a Tool for Emotional Eating with Kari Davis
Let me ask… how’s your stress level?
Do feel present and calm in life?
Or do you feel a bit on edge… and perhaps you find yourself reaching for something to nibble on just to take the edge off?
If so, you’re not alone. And essential oils can help.
I personally am brand new to essential oils, so I invited Kari Davis onto the podcast for a ‘how-to’ for those of us who are new-ish to using them.
In our thirty-ish minute conversation, you’ll walk away knowing…
❤️ How essential oils helped her through the loss of her husband
❤️ How to get started with essential oils without the overwhelm
❤️ The specific essential oils that can help reduce stress, cravings and emotional eating
Kari Davis (The Well- Health and Wholeness Podcast), is founder of http://thewellteam.com and a certified Holistic Life Coach and an essential oils educator. Kari is passionate about empowering women with the tools they need to reclaim their life through self care, health and finding their identity while embracing the idea of a natural and non-toxic lifestyle in their products and mindset. Kari and her husband, Bobby, live in Naples, Florida with their combined five children.

383: Fitness Trackers: Helpful or Harmful?
For 8 months, my Apple Watch has been living in my bedside drawer. And I am happier.
And for 5 or 6 years, I dutifully wore my device. I charged it at night, closed my 'rings' and liked the data. I liked knowing I burned 300 calories in my strength workout.
I liked knowing how far I ran, or how fast I ran.
And I especially liked being able to click a button to play a sound on my phone (I used that function many times a day).
In this week's podcast I share WHY I decided to retire my watch, but I'm not saying you should do the same.
Like any tool, whether it be the bathroom scale or a kitchen knife, it depends on how it's used.
A knife, for example, can create an amazing dinner for your family, or it can evoke serious harm.
To use your tracker well, it's important to understand its uses and limitations. And that's exactly what I share in today's episode.
If you're tempted to skip it because you don't want to give up your watch, this episode is especially for you. And once again, I'm not going to suggest you give it up.
I will suggest that you reflect on your own relationship with your device and to assess if it is helpful for you.
Press play and join me for this chat!
I'd love to know your thoughts... do you love your tracker? Do you have a rocky relationship with it?
Always listening,

379: 3 Ways You're Overeating (But Don't Know It)
Are you eating well, but the scale still won't budge?
I used to think that you're overweight because you overeat. I now know better as I work with many women who struggle with weight loss resistance and eating less is NOT the answer.
However, for many people, the reason weight is a struggle is actually because they are eating too much.
Despite our best intentions, humans have a tendency to underestimate their food consumption.
Join me as I break down three common reasons you might be overeating without knowing it... and what to do about it.
