    106. Job Search, Body Image, & Learning to Give Yourself Grace

    Send Naihomy a text!💕 We talk about how modern beauty trends can erase individuality and why older TV reminds us how powerful it is to look like ourselves. We also get honest about body changes, aging, and setbacks, and how grace and flexible habits keep a wellness routine sustainable.  • Job search vulnerability, reciprocity, and letting support in  • The sameness effect of social media beauty standards  • What older shows reveal about natural faces and unique features  • Choosing self-expression over trend-chasing  • Having compassion when your body changes with life seasons  • Why rigid challenges fail and flexibility wins  • Building sustainable health habits with sleep, stress, movement, and food basics  I am still doing one off sessions, I'm doing three months of one on one coaching. You can feel free to reach out to me, or you can just feel free to reach out to me and let's have a conversation.  Thank you so much for listening!

    105. Fast Results vs. Sustainable Change: Living Through the Process whether it's Weight Loss or Job Searching

    Send Naihomy a text!💕 We unpack why fast weight loss programs look convincing but often collapse when real life shows up. We talk carbs, GLP-1s, muscle loss, and how to build a boring, sustainable health lifestyle that still leaves room for joy.  • why cookie cutter meal plans and product claims pull people in  • carbs as energy and why context matters for nutrition  • the real test of a plan being where you are in a year  • food education over food shame, especially for travel and social life  • why extreme restriction can drive muscle loss and fat regain  • GLP-1s for vanity weight loss versus medical need and the cost problem  • building habits doctors recommend anyway: protein, strength training, fiber  • choosing alignment over comparison, including confidence and self-acceptance  • using blood work and a doctor conversation to guide decisions  Send me a note, send me a text, send me an email, a text, a DM.

    Send Naihomy a text!💕 I come back after a long break to share what the last year has really looked like behind the scenes, from a slowing business to a job search that has stretched my nervous system in every direction.

    101. Wellness Quick Fixes to Consistent Lifestyle: 5 Deep Sacrifices

    Send Naihomy a text!💕 We reflect on nine years of health change and name the five real sacrifices that make a wellness lifestyle stick. Comfort, identity, thoughts, time, and relationships all shift so results feel natural, not forced. • leaving the comfort zone across food, movement, and public spaces • allowing identity to evolve beyond old habits and social roles • replacing unhelpful thoughts with flexible, portable beliefs • reshaping the weekly schedule to protect sleep, training, and meals • renegotiating social norms and invitations with clear boundaries • using simple tools like portion checks without perfectionism • anticipating discomfort so small steps feel safe and sustainable • choosing progress over quick fixes and timelines As always, please rate the podcast, leave a review, share with your friends, share on social media, and please feel free to tag me Then I invite you to go ahead and send me a DM, an email, book a free consultation call so we can talk more about this and set you up with health and hormone coaching with me so I can support you along the way.
