    3 Journal Prompts to Start the New Year With Clarity (Not Pressure)

    Send a text for comments or topics ideas!   👉 Let’s recap your three prompts:  What would you like to leave behind in 2025?What would you like to carry with you into 2026?What would you like to start doing in 2026? Click HERE for your FREE Handouts to build clarity!   It’s 2026… can you believe it?  As promised, I wanted to have an episode waiting for you this Friday morning — something gentle, grounding, and supportive to help get our New Year brains on straight.  Before we dive in, I’m curious… how are you feeling right now?  Are you settled and clear on how you’re approaching the New Year?  Are you someone who doesn’t really care about New Year goals at all?  Or are you feeling a little anxious — knowing you want change, but having no idea where to start?  The New Year brings up so many emotions. Excitement, momentum, hope… but also pressure, decision fatigue, and sometimes even paralysis. And if that’s you — you are not alone.  Today, I want to offer you three simple journal prompts. These aren’t about perfection or rigid goal-setting. They’re about clarity, reflection, and creating momentum that actually feels doable.   💬 Connect with Lindsey House    • Website → https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com    • Podcast → https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com/podcast-1    • Facebook → https://www.facebook.com/houselifestyles 🎁 FREE Resources to Support Better Health    • Book a FREE 1:1 Call → https://calendly.com/houselifestyles/podcast    • Join Our Free Facebook Community → https://www.facebook.com/groups/1077725052    • Download Your FREE Meal Planning Guide → https://pages.lindseyhouse.net/free-guide-1

    Wellness Is Loud — Here’s How to Tune Back Into Your Inner Wisdom

    Send a text for comments or topics ideas!  👉 YOU are the expert of your own body!  I’m really glad you’re here today — because this episode lands in one of my favorite, and most overlooked, pockets of the year: the in-between.  The days after Christmas.  Before the New Year.  Before the detoxes, the challenges, the promises, and the pressure start shouting at us.  Today isn’t about fixing anything.  It’s about pausing.  Resetting.  And keeping your head on straight while the wellness world ramps up the noise.  As we head toward a new year, I want to gently remind you of something powerful: you are the expert on your own body. You’ve lived in it. You’ve tried the plans. You know what worked, what didn’t, and what left you feeling discouraged or disconnected from yourself.  In this episode, we’re talking about why health is never as simple as “just do better,” why one-size-fits-all advice can quietly create shame, and how to reflect on the past year in a way that actually sets you up for sustainable progress — not another cycle of starting over.  So if you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the New Year messaging…  If you’re craving clarity instead of chaos…  And if you want to enter this next season with intention, not pressure…  You’re exactly where you need to be.  Let’s dive in.   💬 Connect with Lindsey House    • Website → https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com    • Podcast → https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com/podcast-1    • Facebook → https://www.facebook.com/houselifestyles 🎁 FREE Resources to Support Better Health    • Book a FREE 1:1 Call → https://calendly.com/houselifestyles/podcast    • Join Our Free Facebook Community → https://www.facebook.com/groups/1077725052    • Download Your FREE Meal Planning Guide → https://pages.lindseyhouse.net/free-guide-1

    Burnout, Cortisol & Weight Gain: Decoding the Signs - with Dietitian, Christa Biegler

    Send a text for comments or topics ideas! Is it time to love on your adrenals? If you missed EPISODE PART I - head over to 👉https://youtu.be/oMs9OWPmMHg Today we’re diving into Part II with Christa Biegler—an award-winning dietitian and truly one of the most trusted, research-driven voices on hormones, cortisol, and all things metabolism. In this episode, we’re placing a special spotlight on something so many high-achieving women overlook: our adrenal health. Christa shares her powerful “gas pedal” analogy—how women often push harder through exhaustion, ignoring the subtle signals our bodies are sending. Instead of resting, we convince ourselves that accomplishing more will help us feel better, do better… and that can lead us straight into burnout. If you’re a woman who’s feeling frustrated with stubborn weight loss, unexpected weight gain, or just feeling depleted no matter how hard you try—this conversation is for you. Because sometimes it’s not about more effort… it’s about understanding what your body is begging for. Ready to explore another essential piece of the puzzle that could unlock more energy, more clarity, and a healthier you? Let’s dive in. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Christa is the founder of Less Stressed Life Nutrition, where she helps clients reduce inflammation, uncover root causes, and finally feel better using practical, evidence-based strategies. Whether you suspect food sensitivities, struggle with chronic symptoms, or feel stuck in trial-and-error mode… this conversation will give you clarity, confidence, and a plan that actually makes sense. 🔗 Connect with Christa Biegler     • Website: https://www.christabiegler.com (Less Stressed Life Nutrition)     • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/christabieglerrd/     • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anti.inflammatory.nutritionist/ Connect with Lindsey House:    • Website: https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com    • Podcast: https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com/podcast-1    • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/houselifestyles 🎁 FREE Resources to Support Better Health: • Book a FREE 1:1 Call → https://calendly.com/houselifestyles/podcast • Join Our Free Facebook Community → https://www.facebook.com/groups/1077725052 • Download Your FREE Meal Planning Guide → https://pages.lindseyhouse.net/free-guide-1 💬 Let’s Chat!

Here are a few prompts to get you started:   What do I need more of this year?What am I ready to release?Who am I becoming?What feeling do I want to experience most often?

    How to Read Your Body’s Clues: From Dry Skin to Fatigue (A Dietitian’s Guide) - with Christa Biegler

    Send a text for comments or topics ideas!  🧴✨ What Your Skin Is Trying to Tell You About Your Health Why itchiness, dryness, and breakouts might be more than “just skin issues.” This week’s podcast episode dives into a topic so many women quietly struggle with: skin issues that seem to appear out of nowhere — itchiness, dryness, redness, rashes, breakouts, and even brain fog that accompanies them. Our guest is an award-winning dietitian who specializes in inflammation and food sensitivities, and she sheds light on something surprising: 👉 Your skin might be sending you messages about what’s happening inside your body. If you’ve ever wondered… Why is my skin suddenly so dry? Why am I itchy for no reason? Is this rash related to something I ate? Why do I feel inflamed or foggy even when labs look “normal”? …then this conversation is absolutely for you. Connect with Christa Bieglar: Website: https://www.christabiegler.com/ FREE Masterclass: https://www.christabiegler.com/shop Podcast: https://www.christabiegler.com/unrestricted2 💡 My Biggest Takeaway As I listened back to this interview, I realized I kept asking for bulleted lists and quick answers — and that’s so relatable for high-achieving women. We want the plan. We want the fix. We want the step-by-step. But the real magic of this episode is the reminder that we don’t have to know everything right away. Today isn’t the day to diagnose yourself. Today is the day to lean into curiosity. If your skin is acting up… If your energy feels off… If your body feels inflamed or overwhelmed… This episode helps you ask, “Is my body trying to get my attention?” -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Lindsey House:    • Website: https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com    • Podcast: https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com/podcast-1    • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/houselifestyles 🎁 FREE Resources to Support Better Health: • Book a FREE 1:1 Call → https://calendly.com/houselifestyles/podcast • Join Our Free Facebook Community → https://www.facebook.com/groups/1077725052 • Download Your FREE Meal Planning Guide → https://pages.lindseyhouse.net/free-guide-1 💬 Let’s Chat!
