    Ep183: Instagram Live With The Coaches: A Year in Review

    Ever feel like the journey to better health can feel overwhelming at times?    You’re not alone! That’s exactly why I was thrilled to join Coaches Michele and Amanda for a powerful Instagram LIVE session earlier this week.   We dove deep into some of the most transformative topics in wellness today: How we can make changes from the inside, but also how to remove the toxins around us. The impact of environmental chemicals and toxins on our health. Regenerative farming and its importance for our future. The power of thoughts and beliefs: how your mindset shapes your health journey. Identifying and working through the belief systems clients hold within themselves. Michele and Amanda’s favorite podcast episodes and the reasons behind their choices. Why meal-prepping is your ultimate key to success. And an exclusive look at the revamped Brandwein Membership, with exciting packages coming in 2025! It was an hour filled with inspiration, actionable insights, and some surprising revelations (did you know your mind can help reframe how you react to the uncontrollable?).   If you missed it, don’t worry — you can catch the replay right now on Instagram.   I’m so grateful to Michele and Amanda for their expertise and passion in guiding others on their health journeys.   Their wisdom and practical tips remind us that small changes really do lead to big transformations.   Tune in to the replay here, and let me know what resonated with you the most!

    Ep182: Is It Picky Eating Or Something More?

    We all need to eat to survive. We assume that eating is second nature. But did you know that there are many factors that impact how a person consumes food?  We often hear the term “picky eater,” it’s often just an assumption that this type of behavior goes along with childhood development. But did you know that there is more to this issue than meets the eye? I talked with Jacklyn Penderson, the CEO of Feeding Matters, about a little known disorder called Pediatric Feeding Disorder. If you haven’t ever heard of this you’re not alone. I have worked with many children and adolescents who I can see clearly had this issue, but we never had a good way to screen for it or truly understand it. If you have a child, or know of a family who has children that might be suffering from this little known condition, you will want to listen to this episode.  PFD is a real condition and requires early intervention in order to effectively manage it. I truly was inspired by our conversation and I think you will be too. Learn more about Feeding Matters and follow them on Instagram.

    Ep181: Body Alignment As A Key To Health

    I never truly knew or understood how impactful body work could be until I interviewed Faysal Abi today on my podcast.   Faysal is a leader in the area of understanding the human body’s design, function, pain and the mind-body connection to it. If you are dealing with any type of chronic pain issue you are going to want to listen to this fascinating conversation.   If you want to better understand how to optimize your strength and flexibility you will want to take a listen. I definitely learned new things about the body, how it works, and even about my sneakers! You’ll have to listen to hear what I mean by that! Learn more about Faysal at his website and his Instagram.

    Ep180: Genetics Talk With Dr. Shivani

    I love the incredible amount of detail I learn from a client’s genetic report. From there I create a DNA blueprint that takes all that technical knowledge and turns it into something they can  understand and use to create real change in their lives. So many people come to me having spoken to other doctors or health professionals who suggest something generic - that doesn’t work for them. Meanwhile the health issues are accumulating and my client has no idea which one to address first, especially when they have to go see a different specialist for each one. But it’s so hard for me to show you how these actually work with clients - those old HIPAA rules mean I can’t just share any old report, and it’s so hard to explain without the context of how it works in someone’s life. Which is why I was delighted to be on Dr.  Shivani Gupta’s podcast Fusionary Health recently. I’ve been working with Dr. Shivani on her health issues, and she recently took the 3x4 genetic test I use with all my clients. She was willing to share all the details (we actually read through it on the podcast) and I could explain exactly what those results mean for her health both now and in the future. If you’ve ever wondered just how useful genetic tests are, then you’re going to want to take a listen to this one! You’ll hear me break it down in real time, and get a real sense of the support I can provide clients to know what issue to deal with first.

    Ep179: Getting Off Your Meds

    Were you ever prescribed a medication and didn’t question why or for how long or even what it was for exactly? Did you have a say in this decision? Would you prefer to NOT be on any medications at all? Well if you answered yes to any of these you will want to listen to this podcast.  Today I talk with Howie Kra, who has been on his health journey for 3 ½ years now and has made amazing progress. Howie was on three different medications, and like many of you, wanted to be off them but just didn’t know what he needed to do to get there. Howie shares his health challenges, where he started and how far he has come. If you want to hear about what Howie has done and the ups and downs of this process take a listen. He’s always an inspiration to listen to and is sure to get you thinking about your own health journey.

    Ep178: The Toxins Hiding In Your Food

    There’s a lot of buzz going around on social media about our food.  Specifically around the quality of our food and how so many chemicals have made their way into the supply chain of the foods we eat.  The impact of this is far reaching and has significant health consequences both for adults and children.  The rise of serious health conditions such as certain cancers can also be linked to these toxic chemicals and if you want to know more about this you need to listen.   If you are wondering how and why this is happening take a listen.  Hear about the grassroots efforts taking place nationally to hold these companies accountable for their misleading actions.  Awareness is key.  Educate yourself about what  is in your food so you can protect yourself and those you love.

    Ep177: Avoiding The Weight Gain Rollercoaster After GLP-1

    With so many of our clients on the GLP-1 medications, we figured it was time to address the elephant in the room. How do you maintain weight loss once you come off of the medications? It is a well known fact that the majority of people on GLP-1 medications see rapid weight gain once they stop taking them. So how do you keep the weight off?  This week I talked with one of our coaches, Michele Baron, and we took  a deep dive into why people begin to gain weight after they cycle off of these medications. We talk about strategies to help offset this phenomenon and how to manage it before it gets out of control. We discuss ways to help control hunger and cravings and offer real time solutions.   Our conversation covers a variety of topics such as the importance of resistance exercise and what that looks like as well as how to create lifelong habits that will help support long term weight management. This is a great episode, don’t miss it!

    Ep176: How Your Food Might Be Making You Sick

    I am always inspired by the guests I get to interview for this podcast.  Today was no different, but my conversation with Kelly Ryerson was particularly impactful for me.  Kelly defines what it means to be an advocate for health and for industry transparency. Take a listen to how Kelly’s own health crisis led her down the path of exposing the dangerous chemicals in our food supply, specifically glyphosate. This is truly a must listen.  If you care about your health, if you care about your childrens’ health, you need to tune into this one. Kelly and I cover so much ground here and discuss how the food industry “gets” away with poisoning us and our families. I encourage you to listen and share this information.  It's vital to our health, that of our families and that of our planet. Learn more about Kelly, glyphosates, and her activism. P.S. If you’ve worked with us before, then we’d love if you could leave us a review! Many potential new clients check out our Google reviews when learning about us, and we’d love it if you could let them know about your experience. Add your Google review now!
