    Episode 33: Give Up: A Health Reset

    Today I’m inviting you to do something radical… I want you to give up. Not give up on yourself — but give up the cycle of starting over. Give up the “I’ll start Monday” trap. Give up the pressure, shame, and force that keep you stuck in self-sabotage.   In this episode, I share why willpower isn’t your problem — your nervous system is. We talk about: Why dopamine spikes (scrolling, bingeing, processed foods) sabotage consistency How all-or-nothing thinking fuels relapse and burnout The difference between resistance and surrender Why identity-based change works better than outcome-based discipline How to replace harmful habits with conscious emotional check-ins Rehearsing the future version of you so your brain aligns with healing   I also share my own story of breaking the exhausting “start over” cycle and learning to stop fighting myself. Because real health — real transformation — begins when you feel safe enough to change. If you’re navigating healing, faith-based motherhood, mindset growth, or just tired of battling your body, this conversation is for you.   🎧 Listen in, reflect on one pattern you’re ready to surrender, and share this with someone stuck in the cycle.

    Episode 32: Know Your No: Setting Boundaries

    Boundaries aren’t mean. They aren’t selfish. They’re the key to transformation, healing, and real health. In this episode, I’m breaking down what it actually means to “know your no” — because every time you say no, you’re saying yes to something better.   We talk about: What boundaries really are (hint: they’re not about controlling others) The difference between unhealthy, one-sided relationships and healthy mutual connection Why responsibility — the ability to respond — changes everything How to communicate boundaries without blame or shame Internal boundaries: saying no to numbing, self-harm, toxic patterns, and people-pleasing How saying no to harmful habits creates space for mindset growth, healing, and whole health   Whether you’re navigating faith-based motherhood, rebuilding your emotional health, or growing personally (and even professionally in podcast growth or leadership), boundaries are foundational. You can only be responsible for you. And that’s incredibly freeing.   If this resonates, take a listen, reflect on where you need a stronger “no,” and share it with someone who needs permission to protect their peace.   ✨ And don’t forget to grab the TDAH!

    Episode 31: How To Share Your Story Wisely

    Do you have a testimony burning inside of you… but you’re not sure how to share it — or even if you should? In this episode, I’m walking you through how to share your story wisely — without trauma dumping, seeking validation, or retraumatizing yourself.   Here’s what we unpack together: Why healing comes first — doing the inner work so you’re not using your story for validation or approval Checking your motive and intention — are you sharing to compete, to be seen, or to offer hope and healing? How to avoid “out-storying” others and turning pain into comparison Who should hear your story (and when) — protecting your children, your audience, and your own heart Why you don’t owe anyone every detail — boundaries are holy How to use your testimony as a tool for faith-based healing, mindset growth, and redemptive impact   Your story is powerful. It’s beautiful. And it’s a treasure. It deserves wisdom and protection. If this episode spoke to you, listen in, reflect, and share it with someone who’s navigating their own healing journey.   And please check out Cherished: Shattered Innocence.

    Episode 30: 7 Keys to Getting Your Summer Body! TDAH! Style

    In today’s episode, I’m flipping the idea of a “summer body” on its head—TDAH! style. This isn’t about quick fixes, diet culture, or punishing your body. It’s about full-time health, emotional healing, and finally breaking free from the yo-yo cycle. Here are the 7 keys we walk through together:   Shift the driver from “summer body” to lasting health—because dopamine-driven diets always fail. Understand the dopamine cycle and why chasing motivation, diets, or fads keeps you stuck. Do the emotional work alongside any nutrition or movement changes so you don’t snap back to the old self. Be prepared to be bored—real health isn’t flashy, but the results are life-giving. Eat consciously and stay present with your body instead of going numb or unconscious. Love your body right now while also loving it enough to heal and change it. Release shame around wanting to lose weight—it’s okay to want health without self-hatred or explanation.   We also talk about responsibility, mindset, trauma patterns, faith-based healing, and why you can’t heal what you hate. If you’ve ever wondered why it’s hard to stick to healthy habits, this episode will meet you right where you are. 🎧 Listen in, reflect, and share this with someone who’s tired of starting over every summer. ✨ Follow, subscribe, leave a review—and when you’re ready, go check out TDAHyou.com to start thinking differently about your health 💛🔥   Connect with Polly:   📱 Instagram: @pollyahamp   📱 Facebook: Polly Hamp

    Episode 29: Blazing a Path to Whole Health with Leah Noland

    In this episode of Be a Blaze, I’m sitting down with my friend Leah Noland, and this conversation goes straight to the heart of whole health. Leah is a Christian health and mindset coach who helps women stop fighting their bodies and start partnering with God in their healing—and wow, does she live that message.   We talk about the deeply ingrained beliefs many of us carry around food, fitness, body image, and worth, especially as women who love God but feel exhausted, stuck, or frustrated with their health. Leah shares her own journey through perfectionism, fear-based motivation, and burnout, and how God gently led her into a mind-body-spirit approach that actually brings freedom. This episode dives into the trauma and health connection, why willpower alone doesn’t create lasting change, and how healing your relationship with your body starts with truth, identity, and grace.   One of my favorite parts of this conversation is how we explore movement as a pathway to healing—not punishment—and how resistance often points us to deeper emotional and spiritual work. If you’ve ever wondered why it’s hard to stick to healthy habits or felt disconnected from your body, this episode will meet you right where you are.   ✨ Listen in, reflect, and share this with a woman who needs hope today. ✨ Follow the podcast, leave a review, and don’t forget to sign up for the free 7-Day Guide.   Leah Noland is a Christian health and mindset coach passionate about helping women stop fighting their bodies and start partnering with God in their health.

    Episode 28 - The Whole Grain Revolution: Embracing Health with Sue Becker

    In this episode, I’m sitting down with the one and only Sue Becker, and friends… this conversation might just change the way you think about food, health, and what nourishment really means. We’re talking whole grains, real bread, and how getting back to the way God designed food can be a powerful part of healing your body and your home.   Sue shares her personal journey into freshly milled, whole-grain living and why so many of us are struggling with energy, inflammation, and chronic health issues without realizing what’s missing. We unpack the mindset shift from convenience to intention, how food connects to faith-based stewardship of our bodies, and why small changes in the kitchen can lead to massive transformation for families—especially moms who are already carrying so much.   This episode is full of encouragement, practical wisdom, and hope. It’s not about perfection or pressure; it’s about empowerment, healing, and learning to trust your body again. Whether you’re curious about real food, looking to improve your health naturally, or simply craving a slower, more intentional rhythm at home, this conversation will meet you right where you are.   Take a listen, let it stir something in you, and share it with a friend who’s ready for a healthier, more grounded approach to living.

    Episode 27 - Back on the Wire: Lijana Wallenda on Surviving Trauma, Fear, and a 25-Story Comeback

    In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Lijana Wallenda, and y’all… this conversation goes deep. Lijana is a seventh-generation high-wire walker who survived a devastating fall that nearly took her life—and then chose to climb back up, literally and figuratively. We talk about trauma, fear, healing, faith, and what it really takes to reclaim who you are after everything falls apart.   Lijana shares what it was like to rebuild her body, her mindset, and her identity after massive physical injury and PTSD, and how God met her right in the middle of her recovery. We dive into the lies fear tells us, the power of staying present in the healing process, and what it means to get “back on the wire” when every part of you wants to stay safe.   This episode is about resilience, faith-based healing, mindset shifts, and learning to be comfortable in the uncomfortable—whether you’re navigating motherhood, trauma, or a season of rebuilding. If you’ve ever felt knocked down or unsure you could rise again, this one’s for you.   Take a listen, let it sink in, and if it speaks to you, share it with someone who needs hope today. And as always, I’d love it if you’d follow, reflect, or leave a review to help this podcast grow 💛🔥   How to Connect with Lijana:   Email: Info@thehighwireproject.com   Website: https://thehighwireproject.com   LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/lijana-wallenda-4918341a1/   Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CkPqeSFrETr/?hl=en   X https://x.com/lijanawallenda   YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@lijanawallenda8155   Connect with Polly: 📱 Instagram: @pollyahamp 📱 Facebook: Polly Hamp

    Episode 26 - What Carnivore Taught Me About Listening to My Body

    Okay friends, buckle up—this one’s a wild ride! After years of trying every diet under the sun (hello vegan, paleo, keto, you name it), I decided to go full-on carnivore for 75 days—yep, just meat, salt, and water. No salads, no snacks, no sugar… just beef, lamb, and tallow. And what I learned had way less to do with food and way more to do with trusting my body.   I didn’t start this to lose weight. I started because I wanted to think differently about health—to strip away all the noise, stop labeling foods as “good” or “bad,” and really listen. And wow… clarity, energy, mood balance, and sleep all improved big-time. I discovered that my body didn’t need caffeine or constant snacks—it just needed me to listen and fuel it with intention.   But it wasn’t all steak and sunshine. I talk about the not-so-glamorous detox phase (hello, “keto flu”), the social awkwardness of eating differently, and even how my mindset shifted from restriction to reset. This experiment reminded me that health isn’t a quick fix—it’s a relationship with our body built on curiosity, compassion, and consistency.   So no, I’m not telling you to go carnivore (promise!). I’m just sharing what happens when you get quiet enough to actually hear your body’s truth.   🎧 Resources Mentioned: 📘 Dr. Paul Saladino – The Carnivore Code: https://share.descript.com/view/Qb4JpM0muxW 🥩 Shawn Baker, MD: www.youtube.com/@ShawnBakerMD 🍳 Ken Berry, MD: www.youtube.com/@KenDBerryMD 📄 Download my free guide: Carnivore Tips and Tricks (PDF) → Carnivore Tips and Tricks.pdf If this episode helped you rethink your relationship with food and your body, share it with someone who’s on their healing journey!
