    EP282 Chemicals in YOUR Food that May Be Banned Soon

    EP282 Chemicals in YOUR Food that May Be Banned Soon

    Hot off the press: Gatorade could be banned in multiple states if its recipe isn't changed! Hold the phone! But isn’t gatorade what you give your kid after a game because you know they’ll drink it? It’s way more fun than water and it has electrolytes! Right? Ok maybe you kinda knew that something was up with it and anything that color is kinda SUS. And sometimes it’s easier to look the other way and just live, without worrying about every darn thing. In this episode, we talk about Gatorade and a number of other products on the shelf at your grocery store that have additives and preservatives that are dangerous to consume and linked to cancer, hyperactivity, and DNA mutations. Other countries have banned these substances. Why haven’t we? No need to panic. Awareness is the key here. In this episode Kelsea and Rachael list the offenders and how to spot them. 

    ADDITIVES, PRESERVATIVES TO LOOK OUT FOR:

    Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Titanium Dioxide, Blue 1, Red 40, Red 3, Propylparaben, Brominated vegetable oil (BVO), Potassium Bromate

    WHERE TO LOOK:

    Snacks: Doritos, Ruffles, Cheetos, trail mix

    Dips: Tostitos queso, Doritos Dip

    Drinks: Gatorade, Pedialyte, Colored Drinks, Citrus Drinks

    Cereal: Lucky Charms, Trix, Fruit Loops

    Baked Goods: Oreos, cupcakes, muffins, Duncan Hines 'Perfectly Moist' cake mix and icing, Pillsbury 'Funfetti' cake mix, bread, cookies, tortillas

    Candy: Skittles, Sour Patch Kids, M&Ms, Peeps

    EP281 Depression Warrior Katie Zornes is Here!

    EP281 Depression Warrior Katie Zornes is Here!

    Meet Katie Zornes! She calls herself a depression warrior and we call her an inspiration! Katie struggled with loss, grief, and depression early on. Have you heard the saying that time heals everything? We've heard it too, and it's BS. As many of us know, it's quite possible to do the things we need to get done and to look just fine doing them, while on the inside, old wounds still feel debilitating, and we go about our day not knowing if we'll fall apart. 

    Katie was at odds with her body for a long time and her weight became her identity. She cursed her body and thought weight loss would be the golden ticket to a happy life.  Want to hear how Katie managed to lift herself out of a very dark place using one ounce of courage at a time? Katie shares her story in the hopes of helping others who struggle as she did, and admittedly still does. Katie's story doesn't involve any quick fix or magic diet. But we'll give you a hint: she talks about intentional movement and the importance of meeting ourselves where we are at. In 2022, Katie made a list of hard things that turned into a movement and has inspired so many people to do the same. Want to know how she got started? Because we all know, starting is the hardest part.

    (00:13:40) The challenge of finding a starting point

    (00:18:16) The importance of celebrating yourself

    (00:22:02) The development of Katie’s 22 hard things in 2022

    (00:26:49) The community that grew around Katie’s list of hard things

    (00:28:13) Katie’s advice for people developing their own lists of goals

    EP280 Biohacking Part 1: What IS Biohacking?

    EP280 Biohacking Part 1: What IS Biohacking?

    Remember all those movies where the kid manages to hack into the mainframe of some forbidden organization? Maybe we didn't exactly understand how typing in all those ones and zeroes did the job but it was exciting right? Well, imagine YOU are the kid and the mainframe is your body! Taking control of your own health and wellness through biohacking is a real thing, and not just a movie plot. People want to take a more active role in their health these days. They want to know what they can do to function at peak performance and maybe even live longer. And experts in biology, genetics, neuroscience, fitness and nutrition, to name a few fields, are answering with ways to enhance our minds and bodies, and in many cases, change our trajectories. 

    There are a lot of big claims out there and so many ways to biohack ourselves. To tackle this robust hot topic, today we are talking about what biohacking IS and the potential impacts it could have on your health, fitness and longevity. We want you to know how you can use it in your own life without feeling overwhelmed with the amount of information out there. We want you to make your own informed decisions on what is snake oil and what is a game changer for YOU. Leave today's episode speaking the language and perhaps you will decide to be the captain of your own ship.

    EP278 Would You Tell Your 5 Year Old To Diet?

    EP278 Would You Tell Your 5 Year Old To Diet?

    Moms, do you criticize your body in front of your kids, then tell them to love themselves? If you say one thing but do another, they aren’t fooled. And the little ones are always watching you. We are not here to shame you. We are here to remind you of how important you are!... now, and for the next generation of women. Do you want your daughter to have a better relationship with her body, with food, and with exercise than you had growing up? It starts now, with you. 

    Today we are talking about a study on 5 year old girls and their moms. The purpose of the study was to look at predictors and sources of influence on these girls and their ideas about dieting. Want to know what percentage of 5 year old girls think that dieting means you can’t eat, AT ALL? Want to know how many moms were on a diet at the time of the study? Please listen to today’s episode. Your daughters are counting on you. 

    (00:00:00) Introduction

    (00:06:25) Passing healthy behaviors and thoughts onto the next generation

    (00:07:54) What body image studies are saying about the next generation

    (00:10:13) Millennial women are changing the language

    (00:12:00) The language that girls as young as 5 are using about body image and diet culture

    (00:15:30) Parental behaviors correlated with health and dieting that later affect young girls

    (00:19:00) The difficult work of generational trauma

    (00:21:24) How girls are disproportionately affected by language around body image

    (00:26:10) 5-year-old girls reporting that they were “currently dieting” 

    (00:26:21) Researchers wanted to examine the predictors and sources of ideas about dieting before the young girls attempted to diet

    (00:31:40) How 5-year-old girls responded when asked about what dieting meant

    (00:36:25) How marketing for things like detox teas has affected girls’ understanding of dieting

    (00:39:40) The impact of the mothers on girls’ understanding of diets

    (00:40:54) Over 90% of the mothers in the study reported recent dieting

    (00:43:10) How adjusting behaviors coincides with adjusting language

    (00:45:50) Examples of ways mothers can talk to daughters about feeding your body what it needs instead of restricting it.

    (00:51:40) How different messaging can be a game changer for boys too

    (00:56:30) Switching the messaging to focus on something gained rather than something lost

    EP277 You Are Worthy! Rock the Boat with Guest Amy Green Smith

    Our guest today, Amy Green Smith wants you to know:  You are not a fraud. You are not uniquely broken. Your voice matters. But to believe all this, you must first know that you are worthy. Amy is a life coach, a hypnotherapist, and personal empowerment expert, but mostly, an amazing human. She’s also the host of the Bold-Faced Truth Podcast and the author of Speak Up For Yourself Without Being a Dick.

    In today’s episode, Rachael and Amy talk about people-pleasing and why we do it. You may be surprised to learn that some forms of people-pleasing are necessary and it’s not just something that introverts do. And what does being assertive and setting boundaries have to do with your inner critic? They are all intertwined and they are all things that YOU, yes YOU can get a hold of. It just takes some awareness and some courage. Amy wants you to enjoy your badass self because you deserve it. And we want you to enjoy this episode!
