    The Truth About Seed Oils: What the Food Industry Won't Tell You

    Did you know the oils marketed to us as "heart-healthy" for decades may actually be fueling inflammation, obesity, cancer, and even anxiety? In this episode, I sit down with one of the world's most respected nutrition experts to expose potential dangers in your pantry and what to do about them.

    Why Diets Fail & The 6-Step Blood Framework That Works

    Have you spent years blaming yourself for not having enough willpower, discipline, or motivation to lose weight? In this episode, I’m talking about the lies of the diet industry and sharing why your body was never the problem in the first place. For decades, women have been deceived about dieting, weight loss, and what it means to be healthy. We’ll talk about why weight gain is often a symptom of deeper issues like blood sugar dysregulation, chronic stress, poor sleep, and lifestyle imbalances. I also walk you through my “Six Spinning Plates” framework that has helped thousands of women stop obsessing over food and start creating sustainable health. Most importantly, I want you to realize that health doesn’t require punishment, perfection, or restriction. Small, consistent changes done with self-compassion and understanding can completely transform the way you feel physically, emotionally, and mentally. Conclusion: Your "dieting" didn't fail because you are lazy or indisciplined. Your body has been asking for balance, nourishment, and consistency all along. Start focusing on deep health instead of quick fixes, and you’ll finally begin building a lifestyle that actually feels sustainable and freeing. In This Episode: - How to decide whether a diet is good for you - Introduction to the six spinning plates - Spinning plate 1: Nutrition - Spinning plate 2: Exercise - Spinning plate 3: Hydration - Spinning plate 4: Sleep - Spinning plate 5: Stress - Spinning plate 6: Supplements Mentioned in the Episode: -Learn More About PFC Pals: https://www.instagram.com/pfcpals -Join Carrie Live on Instagram Every Morning: https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli -Download the 6 Spinning Plates Guide: https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/plates -Join the BS Club: https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/bsclub -Get a Special Discount on Sunlighten Sauna: https://get.sunlighten.com/carrie Preorder Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Get immediate access to the ebook and other special bonuses at: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown -Carrie’s Live Event in Nashville in October (2026): https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/liveevent2026 Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

    The Diet Industry Lied To You | Here's What Actually Works

    If you've been hanging out with me for a while, you'll know I recently did a "diet dogma" series where I called out popular fads of the diet industry. And the responses? Let's just say they've been passionate. Some of you said, "Finally, thank you!" Others were pretty fired up, and I get it. What I teach isn't typical, and that's exactly the point. In this episode, I'm sharing the science behind what I call your body's love language. This isn't another meal plan or a set of food rules. It's about understanding the foundational truth your body has been trying to tell you all along: blood sugar stabilization is the root of everything. Your cravings, energy, mood, hormones, and your metabolic health all connect here. I also walk you through the three non-negotiable questions you need to ask before starting any nutritional approach. These questions changed everything for my clients, and I believe they'll change things for you, too. Tune in, because understanding this is the first step to building a relationship with your body built on trust, not rules. Conclusion: Your body isn't broken. Once you understand the science of blood sugar and what your body's love language really is, you'll have something no diet ever gave you: hope grounded in truth. In This Episode: - Defining what a working diet means - The corset to crown mindset - Three questions to ask before starting a new diet - The science of blood sugar and metabolic health - How blood sugar spikes create disease - Balancing lifestyle and food instead of dieting - Next episode preview Preorder Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Get immediate access to the ebook and other special bonuses at: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown - Carrie’s Live Event in Nashville in October (2026): https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/liveevent2026 Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

    Is the Longevity Trend Another Diet in Disguise?

    Have you noticed how “living longer” is starting to feel a little stressful? In this episode, I’m calling out something that’s been sitting heavily on my heart: the rise of longevity as the next version of diet culture. While I deeply believe in living a long, healthy life, I’m starting to see familiar patterns that we can’t ignore. I break down how industries are already beginning to latch onto this powerful concept and turn it into something fear-driven, profit-focused, and rooted in external validation. From biohacking and supplements to fasting and “anti-aging” messaging, I walk you through how quickly something good is becoming harmful. Most importantly, I help you reframe what longevity should actually look like, so you can pursue health from a place of empowerment, not fear. If you are already feeling the pressure to optimize everything about your health or fear what your numbers might say, this episode will completely shift how you think about healthy aging. Conclusion: Longevity should be about living well, not chasing youth or perfection. When you focus on becoming the healthiest version of yourself from the inside out, everything else becomes a byproduct and not the goal. Stay aware, stay grounded, and don’t let fear drive your choices. In This Episode: - How healthy trends get hijacked - My biological age wake-up call - What longevity really means - Longevity supplements and biohacking hype - Fasting as a new diet - The trap of looking younger - Overcoming pressure to optimize constantly - A balanced longevity blueprint Mentioned in the Episode: -Carrie’s Live Event in Nashville in October (2026): https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/liveevent2026 -Episode on the Dangers of Intermittent Fasting: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-hidden-dangers-of-intermittent-fasting-women-over/id1507293016?i=1000758417721 -The Consistency Code, Book by Courtney Townley: https://a.co/d/05w9J90N -Previous Episode With Courtney Townley: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-truth-about-midlife-health-the-real-reason-you/id1507293016?i=1000737242175 Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

    Why You React the Same Way Every Time (And How to Change It)

    Have you ever wondered why you react the way you do, even when you know better? In this episode, I sit down with JJ Flizanes, an empowerment strategist, to discuss the emotional patterns that keep us stuck in cycles of negative behavior. We explore how emotional wounds, often formed in childhood, shape our subconscious beliefs and reactions in adulthood. JJ shares an insightful exercise to help you identify these core wounds and rewire your subconscious mind to create healthier patterns. She also shares a 3-step process for identifying unmet needs to help you stop emotional spirals. If you're repeating the same cycles in relationships or constantly abandoning yourself, this conversation will provide some of the clarity and tools you need to change. Conclusion: Emotional healing is a journey, but with the right tools and awareness, you can break free from old patterns that no longer serve you. The journey starts by understanding and addressing your core wounds and then rewiring the negative subconscious beliefs that hold you back. In This Episode: - Addressing the root causes of health issues - How JJ discovered Imago therapy for couples - How to recognize core wounds - How to use the Core Wound Map - The core wound circuit and how to break it - JJ’s "feelings and needs" tool - Where to get JJ’s book and follow her Mentioned in the Episode: -JJ’s Podcasts: https://jjflizanes.com/podcasts/ -Feelings and Needs List: https://jj-flizanes.mykajabi.com/feelings-needs-list -JJ’s Books: https://jjflizanes.com/books/ -Roadmap to Emotional Healing Course: https://jj-flizanes.mykajabi.com/roadmap-to-emotional-healing-evergreen -Roadmap to Emotional Healing Podcast Episode: https://jjflizanes.com/road-to-emotional-healing/ Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with JJ Flizanes: Website - https://jjflizanes.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jjflizanes Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

    Disrupting Everything You’ve Been Told About GLP-1s

    Everyone is talking about GLP-1s right now, but what if we’re missing the most important part of the conversation? In this episode, I’m diving into a conversation that most people are avoiding when it comes to GLP-1 weight loss drugs. I’m challenging the deep beliefs that drive the desire for weight loss in the first place. Plus, I walk you through five critical areas about health that most of us overlook. If you’ve ever thought that losing weight will make you feel confident or worthy, this episode will shift your focus from shrinking your body to expanding your life. Real transformation doesn’t come from a prescription; it comes from within. Conclusion: Weight loss might change your body, but it won’t change how you feel about yourself unless you do the deeper work. You are already worthy. Now it’s time to learn how to show up like you believe it, and choose empowerment over quick fixes. In This Episode: - The bigger GLP-1 conversation - Attaching self-worth to weighing less - Choosing identity over outcome goals - Find out your “why” for losing weight - 3 questions to ask before starting GLP-1s - Empowerment and pride when you change from the inside out - The true source of self-confidence: my China story Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

    The Truth About Calorie Counting And Why It Doesn’t Work for Women

    Are you tired of dieting and calorie-counting yet? In this episode, I challenge the calories in, calories out dogma that’s been ingrained in our minds. In its place, I offer a healthier, more empowering approach to wellness. We will talk about the effects of the calorie-counting mindset and how it leads us to obsess over numbers instead of focusing on our body’s true needs. I share my personal struggles with dieting, how it shaped my beliefs about food, and the real reason many of us are trapped in the cycle of deprivation. You’ll also hear about Sue, a client who almost let dieting control her life, and how we shifted her perspective to embrace nourishment over restriction. Health is not about eating less, but eating better, and we can break free from the mindset that keeps us stuck in a dieting cycle. Conclusion: Dieting doesn’t have to be our concept of health. By changing the way we think about food, we can shift from deprivation to nourishment, and from restriction to freedom. It's time to break free from calorie obsession and follow your body’s natural rhythm! In This Episode: - Calorie-counting culture exposed - How kids learn about dieting and calories - The problem with calorie counting and deprivation - PFC3 alternative to calorie counting - Why calorie-counting plans fail - Teaching kids nutrition with PFC Pals Mentioned in the Episode -Join Carrie every morning live on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ -Learn more about PFC Pals: https://pfcpals.com/ Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

    The Dark Side of Keto: What’s Really Happening to Your Body?

    Keto promises fat-burning magic and rapid weight loss. But the diet gets so restrictive that you have to avoid simple pleasures like cake, happy hour, and even fruit. In today’s episode, we uncover the truth about keto’s effectiveness for long-term health, beyond just weight loss. Yes, cutting out carbs helps with blood sugar stabilization and helps you lose weight, but is this approach to health really sustainable? Or is it just another diet that ultimately harms our relationship with food? I’m breaking down the reality of keto, from its initial appeal to long-term consequences on your body and mind. I will also share the top three questions you must ask yourself before starting a keto diet or any other weight loss diet. Plus, we’ll look at how keto compares to more holistic approaches that focus on overall health and not just weight loss. Conclusion: Diets like keto promise quick results, but they come with trade-offs that can affect your health in the long run. If you're looking for a lifestyle change, focus on balance and consistency, not perfection. Health isn't about deprivation but about self-care, self-love, and living with intention. In This Episode: - Introduction: when diets “work” - Why keto is just another form of deprivation - Corset to crown mindset - The science behind ketosis vs. glucose for energy - Why keto seems to work - Three questions to ask before trying keto - Short and long-term risks of keto - Achieving optimal health without keto Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?
