This episode is part two of our 2026 Success Series, and we're talking specifically about weight loss, nutrition, and your relationship with food. No more vague intentions.

In this fun and personal episode, I'm sharing what I actually want for Christmas this year — and spoiler alert: it's not much "stuff." From a sauna hat and a flip phone to natural fiber underwear (yes, really), I'm walking you through the practical, intentional, and meaningful things I'm excited about this season. I'm also opening up about some deeper shifts — like why we're keeping Christmas simple for the kids, what our upcoming bedroom swap means to me, and the kind of experiences I want to create around the dinner table. You'll also hear: Why I'm buying myself a flip phone How I'm thinking about "less is more" with kids' gifts The grain mill I can't wait to use What I want to create that can't be wrapped And why I'm leaning into connection over consumption this year This episode is all about intentionality over impulse, presence over presents, and creating a holiday season that feels peaceful, simple, and aligned with the life I want to build. If you're feeling the pull toward less doing, more

f you're eating healthy, working out, doing "all the things," but still feel like your weight isn't budging — you have to hear this. In this episode, I'm walking you through one of the biggest (and most overlooked) blocks to weight loss: chronic, low-grade inflammation. We're going beyond the basics. This isn't just "sugar is inflammatory" or "cut processed food." We're talking about the cumulative, daily impact of everything from your toothpaste to your sleep schedule, your stress, your gut, your hormones, and more.

You're not lazy. You're not undisciplined. You're not broken. You're just fighting against your environment—and it's a losing battle. In this episode, Elizabeth gets real about the truth we all feel but rarely talk about: Your willpower will never beat your environment. From overflowing mudrooms to cluttered kitchen counters, chaotic homes create chaotic minds—and chaotic minds make impulsive decisions. Sound familiar? This episode dives into: Why your space might be silently sabotaging your progress How clutter triggers stress, reactivity, and that "I need a break" urge The common household patterns that wear down your willpower And most importantly—6 simple things you can do to make your environment support your goals, not destroy them You don't need a Pinterest-worthy house. You need a space that lets you breathe. You'll hear real-life, messy, relatable examples—like: Why there are 77 shoes in the mudroom (with only 5 people in the house) The Ninja Creamy that hasn't moved in months How t

It's easy to get caught up in all the health trends—saunas, red light therapy, cold plunges, expensive supplements—but at the end of the day, nothing will trump the basics. In this episode, I'm walking you through two lifestyle changes I've made recently that are supporting my health in a big way. One is a little "crunchy," and one is super accessible. Neither replaces the big rocks of health (like reducing processed foods, stabilizing blood sugar, managing stress, and getting good sleep), but both have helped me reinforce the foundation. Here's what we dive into: Why I started milling our own flour (and what you're really getting in store-bought flour) What "bleached" flour actually means—and what that's doing to your body What's really in dough conditioners (and why you want to avoid them) How fresh-milled flour tastes better, saves money, and massively improves nutrient density The simple morning fiber drink I take with psyllium husk and citrus How fiber helps you detox and reduce inflammation

Episode Summary: I recently decided to go back into a weight loss phase, and in this episode, I'm telling you exactly why. Spoiler alert: it's not because I hate my body or feel like a failure—it's because of what I learned about how excess body fat impacts your brain, your long-term health, and your everyday clarity, energy, and decision-making. We'll talk about: Why "feeling fine" can actually be a red flag if it keeps you stuck in complacency What I'm changing—even though I was already eating well and exercising How excess fat reduces brain volume, blood flow, and function (even if you feel healthy) Why your brain is absolutely capable of healing and what it needs to do that The real meaning of anti-inflammatory weight loss (and it's not just about food) I'm also answering some of the biggest questions that come up around inflammation and weight, including: Can you heal your brain if damage has already been done? What if you know you need to lose weight but you're just not ready? What if

In this powerful episode, I'm opening up about a recent decision to return to weight loss mode—not from a place of shame or desperation, but from clarity, alignment, and a deep understanding of how excess body fat impacts more than just how we look or feel. It impacts our brain health, our energy, our clarity, our future. Join me in January - IMPACT: Inflammation A full month of education, meal ideas, supplement recommendations, lab recommendations and details around my current weight loss journey.  Secure Your Spot Now In this episode I'm sharing: What really prompted this shift for me The danger of getting stuck in "better than I was" complacency The shocking science around how excess weight affects brain volume and function Why inflammation is not just a buzzword—it's a foundational factor in aging, disease, and cognitive decline And what I'm doing about it now—right through the holidays If you've been feeling like something's "off," or you're functioning fine but not fully thriving, this episo

You're not avoiding the scale. You're not avoiding the bank statement. You're not avoiding the hard conversation or the overflowing inbox. You're avoiding how you think you'll feel when you see it. But here's the truth: You already feel that way. You already feel heavy. You already feel ashamed. You already feel anxious and behind and overwhelmed. Avoidance doesn't protect you — it prolongs your suffering. It doesn't delay the pain — it drains you slowly while convincing you that you're safe. In this episode, we're unpacking: Why avoidance feels like safety but functions like a trap What you're really running from (hint: it's not the number) Why facing it now is easier than carrying it another day And how to start moving forward — even if you're scared This is the wake-up call for anyone avoiding the thing they know they need to face. The number. The truth. The next step. If you're ready to stop circling the truth and start standing in it — this one's for you.

If you're routinely feeling overwhelmed, you can't skip this episode. In fact, you probably ought to share it with all your friends who relate to routine overwhelm? What if it's not so much that you're overwhelmed, but that you're being undisciplined, either with your focus, your time, your choices or your energy? I'm telling you - this is one to save and share because boy, does it change the game! 

Don't wait. Join me. This is a life-changing opportunity, and I say that with every ounce of seriousness that your life and your goals deserve! Secure Your Spot

We treat the holidays like they're a 10-week freefall — but the truth is, most of your meals, your moments, and your mindset are still in your control. In this episode, I'll show you how to stay in your power without swinging to extremes. You'll learn: The surprising "Holiday Math" that changes everything Why your inner narrative matters more than your plan How to use science-backed micro-moves to stay grounded Why movement, sleep, and sunlight aren't about discipline — they're about physiology The real reason people fall off during this season (hint: it's not willpower) Whether you're feeling chaotic, discouraged, or like you always lose ground at this time of year — this episode gives you a new way to stay engaged, without guilt or rigidity.

This is the time of year when most people hit pause on their goals. They drift. They defer. They tell themselves, "I'll get serious again in January." But what if this season — the one most people treat like an exception — could actually be your turning point? In this episode, I'm talking about what I call Separation Season — the window of time between now and the New Year when small daily choices stack up and create the gap between stuck and unstoppable. And spoiler alert: it's not about being perfect. It's about recommitting, over and over again, in small ways that move the needle. But that's not all…

What do you do when you're doing "everything right" but still feel like you're not getting traction? In today's episode, we're unpacking a powerful shift that can help you get out of your own way—whether you're trying to eat better, move more, stay consistent, or simply feel more in control. You'll learn a mental framework that can instantly create clarity, momentum, and sustainable progress (hint: it's not about trying harder). ✨ This conversation will challenge the way you think about change—especially if you're someone who tends to go all in and burn out fast. If you've ever felt like you're starting strong and fizzling out… this is your episode. But here's the deal: change is a lot easier when you're not doing it alone. If you want to go deeper with this and have coaching, accountability, and real-time strategy support:

Have you ever felt like you're doing all the things, but something still feels off? Like you're trying to move forward, but something under the surface keeps pulling you back? What you're tuned to — what you're mentally calibrating to — matters more than anything else. In this episode, I'm sharing the mindset shift that's anchoring me right now, and why it's been a total game-changer for my clients. This isn't about motivation. It's about alignment. It's about tuning into the frequency that keeps you grounded, honest, and moving toward what really matters. If you feel like you're constantly drifting, starting over, or losing steam, this episode is for you.

"Everybody wants to heal… until the medicine shows up in the form of discipline." – Hippocrates (400 B.C.) Why is it so hard to do the things we say we want to do? In today's episode, we're digging into one of the biggest struggles so many of us face: discipline. Not just why it's hard—but why it can feel almost impossible in today's world. We're not lazy. We're not broken. We're living in a world designed to hijack our brains through overstimulation and constant dopamine hits—from social media, processed food, streaming content, even the kind of books we read. In this episode, I'll walk you through: Why discipline feels harder than ever (hint: it's not your fault) How dopamine and your brain's salience network make high-stimulation things feel more important than your goals What makes your brain highlight some things (and ignore others) Why real connection, presence, and long-term goals feel boring when you're overstimulated How to retrain your brain so discipline feels easier, not harder This

We all know what all looks like — strict rules, clean eating, heavy discipline. And we definitely know what nothing looks like — throwing in the towel and saying, "Whatever, I'll start over Monday." But what about the middle? Why does it feel so hard to define… let alone stay in? In today's episode, I'm unpacking a powerful conversation I had with a client who said something so many of us feel: "Navigating the middle feels lost — like no direction. It feels like too much freedom and an impossible place to navigate." Especially this time of year — when schedules are packed, events are frequent, and temptations are everywhere — the middle can feel impossible. We're talking about: Why "the middle" feels so elusive What to do when you don't hold the line How to adjust your goals without abandoning them Why re-engagement matters more than perfection And how to stay in the game — even when you miss the mark This is not about following a perfect plan. It's about building the resilience to keep going wh

A client recently said something that completely stopped me in my tracks: "My mindset determines the choices I'm going to make. Don't decide from a shitty mindset — otherwise, I’ve rigged the game against myself." Mic. Drop. It immediately made me reflect — how often do we do this? How often do we unconsciously (or consciously) make it harder to follow through, succeed, or feel good? In this episode, I’m sharing: What it actually means to rig the game against yourself How to recognize when you’re doing it (with real client stories + examples) What it looks like to rig it in your favor instead The mindset shift from “positive” to helpful that changes everything A journaling prompt to help you create your own breakthrough today

You might feel fine. But chronic inflammation could still be running the show — silently disrupting your hormones, energy, digestion, mood, and metabolism. This episode pulls back the curtain on: Why chronic inflammation is the hidden driver behind so many frustrating symptoms (and major diseases) What you can measure — from blood to stool — to actually track it The difference between CRP and hs-CRP (and why it matters way more than you think) What your body fat, cortisol, gut health, and mitochondria have to do with inflammation And most importantly: what you can do this week to lower inflammation and feel better fast If you’re tired of chasing symptoms — and ready to get to the root — this is for you.

If you’ve ever told yourself “I don’t have time to take care of myself” because you’re too busy taking care of everyone else — this one’s for you. Whether it’s your kids, your job, your partner, aging parents, or your community — a lot of us are constantly pouring out… while running on empty. In this episode, I’m sharing a concept from CrossFit — “core to extremity” — and how it changed the way I think about showing up for others. We’re talking about where real strength comes from, what happens when we don’t start at the center, and how taking care of yourself first is not selfish — it’s strategic. If you feel stretched thin or burned out, this might be the reframe you didn’t know you needed.
