    How to deal with menopause - with Laurie Lewis (ALL-STAR)

    Are you trying to figure out how to deal with menopause or curious if you’re on the brink of it all? Welp, friends… this one is for you! My special guest today is author Laurie Lewis and she’s simplifying how to deal with menopause. No matter if you’re at the beginning of it all and you’re starting to notice your period is getting irregular. Or your midsection resembles more of a rectangle than an hourglass (um, like me). Or maybe, you’re already knee deep in it all with hot flashes and more… we’re simplifying it all down for you, so you can make sense of it all. Here’s how.  My all-star special guest today is Laurie Lewis and she’s simplifying how to deal with menopause. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: What the first signs of perimenopause and menopause are that you need to be looking out for Your hormones will start to shift in your 40s and 50s… what are the basics you need to know and why working out longer and harder in the gym is NOT the answer to losing weight What intermittent fasting is and why it might be the right solution for those looking to recalibrate their hormones How does intermittent fasting work, is it safe and what the three phases of fasting are: Fast foundation Fast forward  Fast forever …and ultimately, how to make sense of all the changes your body is going through without losing your mind along the way. Disclaimer: speak to your primary care physician or doctor first. There is so much mystery and confusion surrounding menopause and what’s (actually) happening in our bodies. As Dr. Jen Gunter says, “it’s like puberty, but in reverse!” I hope today’s conversation sheds some light on this subject that’ll help you prepare for menopause, start to recalibrate your hormones, and feel more in control of what your body and brain is needing the most during this stage of your life. Q: Are you ready to learn how to deal with menopause with grace? If yes, this one is for you.

    How to improve your digestion - with Tyler Mayoras (ALL-STAR)

    Today, we are talking all about how to improve your digestion. Are you feeling a bit bloated, and well, clogged up? Aha, this one's for you! My all-star special guest today is Cool Beans co-founder Tyler Mayoras and he’s simplifying how to improve your digestion. There’s nothing worse than having tummy aches and feeling like your body isn’t working right. Tyler believes that with a few simple shifts in what you eat, all of this could improve fairly quickly. Here’s how.  My all-star special guest today is Tyler Mayoras and he’s simplifying how to improve your digestion. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: Why focusing on your gut health and digestion is so (darn) important these days for whole body health and wellness What the big secret is behind beans as a superfood… and how to incorporate more beans into your meals, in a simple way How to have more food diversity in what you eat weekly and why so many people are going plant-based nowadays With new food innovation these days, there seem to be more plant-based choices in our grocery stores than ever before. How to avoid the “vegan junk food” craze and make better choices when grocery shopping …and ultimately, I asked him about his take on “The Carnivore Diet” (aka. only eating meat) that seems to be the latest fad and is it good for your body or not? If you’ve been contemplating making a shift towards a plant-based diet or going vegetarian, you’ll definitely enjoy this conversation. And it might start small like doing “Meatless Monday” or taking the time to read the labels when you shop for groceries. Remember, you’re looking for items made from whole food, minimally processed ingredients. Less packaging and added chemicals/preservatives, more plants is best. You’ll find your brain fog disappears, the bloating melts away, and your skin is clearer. Yes, yes, and YES! Q: Are you ready to improve your digestion? If yes, this one is for you.

    How to get into the flow - with Scott Robinson (ALL-STAR)

    When was the last time you felt like you were in flow state? You know, that feeling you get when time seems limitless, your creative juices and ideas are free flowing, and your energy is buzzing at a higher vibration. Has it felt like forever? Well if so, you’re going to love today’s conversation. My special guest today is The Brain Guy - Scott Robinson and he’s simplifying how to get into the flow.  He believes in one simple truth: whatever you are looking to achieve in life, it’s your brain and your nervous system working together that control your life’s outcomes.  Therefore, when you tap into your subconscious mind (which accounts for 95% of your total brain processing), you unlock a higher intelligence that’ll help you quickly and easily transform stress, resolve trauma faster, and get back to thriving. So, more joy, satiated contentment, pleasure, and abundance on a deeper level… These are all the things you can experience when you get in the flow.  Here’s how.  My all-star special guest today is Scott Robinson and he’s simplifying how to get into the flow. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: How he defines “flow state” and what’s actually happening in your brain when you’re “in the flow” What effect stress has on the brain and the body and how to spot it Athletes train to achieve “high performance” - he shares what he has learned whilst working with them, specifically with understanding the brain as the “control center” in conjunction with the nervous system …and ultimately, he talks about the subconscious mind: what it is, how it works, and (finally) understanding that it is governing your actions and (in my words) your “1000 daily choices.” When you do, you can change your life for the better. Bottomline, when we achieve flow state, our life is buzzing with possibility. I’m thrilled to share this conversation with you and look forward to hearing what you think about it all soon! Q: Are you ready to get into the flow? If yes, this one is for you.

    How to be the CEO of your well-being - with Naz Beheshti (ALL-STAR)

    Are you ready to step up and be the CEO of your well-being? If last year taught us anything at all, it reminded us of how incredibly important it is to take good care of our body, mind, and spirit in order to stay grounded through big change. Self-care is no longer a “should” but a “must-have” priority to maintain your well-being as an entrepreneur. My all-star special guest today is author Naz Beheshti and she’s simplifying how to be the CEO of your well-being. Like a CEO, you’re setting the vision for the year ahead, making calculated predictions that will hopefully pay off in the months to come and equally, making cuts where necessary. All of this requires a whole new vantage point on how you live your life and a possible shift in your mindset to level up. Here’s how.  My all-star special guest today is Naz Beheshti and she’s simplifying how to be the CEO of your well-being. We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including: What she learned while working as Steve Jobs’ executive assistant, inside the pressure cooker of Silicon Valley… how this brilliant person took great care of himself and equally grew the Apple brand simultaneously  Her book is called “Pause. Breathe. Choose.” - we take a deep dive into all three sections and she defines what mindfulness could look like through a pandemic How to make better choices that will help us manage our stress and build resilience, using the ACE Method: acute, chronic, eustress …and ultimately, what the “3 P’s to well-being” are - pain, prana and purpose, understanding how we can tap into all three areas to our advantage, through our work. We also do a breathwork exercise together to build that prana life-force energy.  It was fascinating to hear her stories of working with Steve Jobs early on in her career, to really get an insider's peek into that world when Apple was booming.  And it certainly rings true for me… when I take good care of myself, get enough sleep, drink more water than coffee, move my body, take time to focus in on my breath, rest, reflect and prioritize it into my daily schedule, I become a better CEO for The Simplifiers. Opportunities (magically) open up and I achieve flow state for longer periods of time.   This is truly living a simplified, joy-filled life. And I hope today’s conversation sparks something new for you, as well. Q: Are you ready to be the CEO of your well-being? If yes, this one is for you.
