    Ep 96. Macros Aren’t Math, They’re Metabolism

    If you’re still coaching macros like they live in a calculator, you’re missing the most important part: your client’s context. In this episode, Eve breaks down why macros aren’t just numbers ... they’re communication. You’ll learn how to stop treating nutrition coaching like a math problem and start seeing it for what it really is: a conversation between metabolism, hormones, and lifestyle. This is the episode that will make you rethink how you build macro plans, how you assess client feedback, and how you coach beyond the numbers. Because macros aren’t math, they’re metabolism. And once you learn to read the body’s signals, you’ll never coach the same way again.   You’ll Learn:  Why macros are more than calories and ratios  How hormones, stress, sleep, and cycle phases affect client response  What “metabolic communication” really means  How to shift from calculator-style coaching to physiology-based coaching  Why client context matters more than perfect numbers  How to coach the person, not just their data   Key Takeaways:  Macros are communication — every adjustment is a signal to the body.  The same macros hit differently depending on stress, sleep, and recovery.  You can’t coach macros in isolation; you have to coach the human.   Great coaches don’t just track numbers — they interpret biofeedback.  This is what separates coaching for results from coaching for understanding.   Power Quote from Eve: Macros are communication. Every adjustment you make sends a message to the body — and the body always answers. The question is: are you listening?     Links & Resources:  Watch the Mastering Client Transformations replay → https://www.themacrouniversity.com/masteringtransformations   Learn more about Macro Mentorship:  the certification + business mentorship that teaches you how to coach beyond the numbers -→ https://www.themacrouniversity.com/certification   Follow Eve on Instagram → @eveguzmanofficial

  2. Ep 95. The Loneliness No One Talks About: Working From Home as a Fitness Coach

    5 NOV.

    Ep 95. The Loneliness No One Talks About: Working From Home as a Fitness Coach

    Everyone glamorizes working from home as a coach; the freedom, the flexibility, the dream schedule. But no one talks about how quiet it can get. In this episode, Eve gets real about the loneliness that comes with working from home as a fitness or nutrition coach. You can coach twenty clients a day and still feel completely alone—because messages aren’t connection. And when the lines between work and life blur, that “dream schedule” can start to feel heavy fast. Eve breaks down why this loneliness is normal, what’s changed since 2020, and how to rebuild real connection in 2025, both online and off. TOPICS: How the online space has shifted since 2020 and why connection feels different now Why isolation hits service-based coaches harder than most How the “freedom” of working from home can quietly turn into disconnection The real signs you’re slipping into loneliness (and what your body’s trying to tell you) Simple strategies to create more structure and connection in your day What Eve personally does to stay grounded and avoid the “alone but always online” spiral   Feeling lonely working from home doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful or broken—it means you’re human. Your nervous system was never designed to live, work, and connect solely through a screen. Connect With Eve If this episode hit home, take a screenshot and tag @eveguzmanofficial  on Instagram.

  3. Ep. 94 You Can’t Convince Your Clients to Change (and That’s Not Your Job)

    29 OCT.

    Ep. 94 You Can’t Convince Your Clients to Change (and That’s Not Your Job)

    If you’ve ever wanted to shake a client and say, “Just trust me... eat more food!”… this episode is for you. In today’s episode, Eve breaks down one of the toughest truths in coaching: You can’t convince your clients to eat more, stop dieting, or change habits they’re not ready to release. Because real change doesn’t happen through convincing, it happens through readiness and self-accountability.  Eve shares why logic doesn’t override fear, how to recognize when a client isn’t ready to change, and how to shift from pushing harder to coaching smarter. This is your reminder that you’re not failing as a coach, you’re working with real humans who need more than macros and motivation.   You’ll Learn:  Why fear of change often trumps facts and data  How diet trauma and “chronic deficit” thinking keep clients stuck  What readiness to change really looks like (and how to assess it)  The difference between carrying your client’s accountability and coaching it  Practical ways to guide resistant clients toward trust and consistency  Why your job isn’t to “fix” clients — it’s to help them find clarity and ownership   Key Takeaways:  You can’t push clients into readiness; you help them build it.  Self-accountability is a skill not a trait and it has to be practiced.  Convincing doesn’t create compliance. Clarity does.  Clients don’t change when they understand what to do they change when they understand why it matters to them.   As a coach, your boundaries and systems protect both your energy and your impact.   Quote from Eve: “Logic doesn’t override lived experience. Fear is louder than facts. You can’t convince clients to change, you can only meet them where they are and guide them toward their own evidence.”     Links & Resources: Learn more about Macro Mentorship — the certification + business mentorship that teaches you how to coach with clarity, confidence, and systems that actually work -→ https://www.themacrouniversity.com/certification   Watch the Mastering Client Transformations replay → https://www.themacrouniversity.com/masteringtransformations   Follow Eve on Instagram → @eveguzmanofficial

  4. Ep 93. Why Your Clients Aren’t Losing Fat - And It’s Not the Calories

    19 SEPT.

    Ep 93. Why Your Clients Aren’t Losing Fat - And It’s Not the Calories

    Macros work… until they don’t. Every coach has had that client who does everything “right”—hitting macros, workouts, steps, and water—yet the fat loss just won’t happen. Most coaches respond by cutting calories lower, but that’s often the wrong move. In this episode, Eve breaks down the real reasons fat loss stalls even when the math looks perfect, including metabolic adaptation, hormone imbalances, micronutrient deficiencies, and gut health issues. You’ll learn what to look for, how labs can uncover hidden barriers, and how to shift your coaching approach so you stop losing frustrated clients and start building long-term trust. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why “eat less, move more” isn’t enough for chronic dieters The science of metabolic adaptation and how it halts fat loss How thyroid, cortisol, and estrogen/progesterone shifts impact body composition The role of nutrient deficiencies and gut health in fat loss resistance When to reverse diet, support stress and sleep, or correct nutrient gaps before lowering calories again How using labs (Blood Chemistry, DUTCH, GI-MAP) gives you the tools to troubleshoot effectively The business advantage of going beyond macros: higher retention, referrals, and authority as a coach Resources & Next Steps: Learn more about the Functional Nutrition Coaching Certification (FNC) → https://www.themacrouniversity.com/fnc  Connect with Eve on Instagram → @eveguzmanofficial

    Ep. 92 Why Clients Want Labs and How Hormones Change Things

    Macros work—until they don’t. If you’ve ever had a client who tracks perfectly but still can’t break through a plateau, you know the frustration. Lowering calories and adding more cardio only go so far. The truth? It’s not always about the macros. In this episode, I share why your clients actually want lab testing, how hormone health changes everything, and why integrating labs into your coaching can take you from guessing coach to trusted expert. You’ll learn: Why clients want labs (it’s not about the numbers—it’s about clarity and proof). The hormone red flags most coaches miss that explain stubborn weight, fatigue, and plateaus. 3 lab tests that eliminate guesswork and help you stop second-guessing your strategies. How to integrate labs + functional nutrition into your coaching without throwing out your macro model. Why labs raise your credibility and retention and position you as the go-to coach in your niche. If you’re ready to move beyond macros and start solving the deeper issues that keep clients stuck, this episode is your roadmap.

    Ep. 91 From Macros to Root Cause: How Sabra Doubled Her Coaching Business with Functional Labs

    Sabra Cawby transformed her coaching practice by diving into functional nutrition and hormone-focused strategies. In this episode, she shares how shifting from macro-based coaching unlocked deeper client transformations—from gut healing and weight loss to pregnancy and hormonal balance. About Sabra Cawby Sabra is a Certified Functional Hormone Specialist, Functional Nutritionist, and Certified Personal Trainer. She helps clients uncover root causes of issues like low energy, gut dysfunction, perimenopause, and hormonal imbalances—even when conventional labs return “normal” results. Her mission: help men and women feel strong, balanced, and confident using functional testing like GI‑MAP testing, functional blood chemistry, cortisol testing and more. Sabra Cawby Wellness Coaching, is based in Florida. Sabra leverages her background as a former dental hygienist and athlete to craft integrative wellness coaching that’s rooted in science and real-world results. In This Episode You’ll Hear: 1. Sabra’s Coaching Roots How she got started in nutrition and fitness coaching with macro tracking and training routines. The frustrations she faced when clients plateaued, despite doing “all the things right.” The moment she realized that macros alone weren’t enough—and the functional tools her practice was missing. 2. The Shift to Functional Nutrition Her experience with Macro Mentorship and how FNC (Functional Nutrition Certification) expanded her toolkit—especially through gut testing and cortisol management. The first time she used GI-MAP and DUTCH testing with clients: dramatic improvements followed (a client losing 10–15 lbs and improving IBS within 14 weeks). How adding lab-based strategies not only changed outcomes but doubled her business and boosted her coaching confidence. 3. Client Transformations & New Offerings A client who got pregnant in the first month after shifting to hormone-based root cause coaching. A gut health client who had tried everything—until Sabra identified and removed virulence factors through lab testing. A weight-loss client who finally felt “unstuck” and like a completely new person. Launching a focused program for women with PCOS, menstrual cycle, and fertility issues—offering an alternative to receiving only birth control as a solution. 4. Sabra’s Advice for Coaches To coaches confident in macros but hesitant about functional testing: why this approach might be exactly what your practice—and your clients—need. How functional tools often fill the gaps that even the most well-planned macro strategies can’t reach. Why This Episode Matters If you’ve ever felt your coaching “hit a wall,” this episode illustrates how functional nutrition can be the game-changer. You’ll walk away with practical inspiration—and actionable strategies—for using testing tools to drive client breakthroughs and grow your business.
