Diet Disruptors

You’re eating less, working out harder, and pushing through exhaustion, but your hair is thinning, your sleep is suffering, and your weight keeps changing. And when your blood work comes back “normal,” you’re left wondering what’s wrong. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Christina Enzmann, a board-certified gynecologist, menopause specialist, and functional medicine practitioner, to explore wha...

Sometimes the pressure you're trying to escape at 40 started when you were just a child! In this episode, I share conversations with college students that revealed something powerful: the corset doesn't discriminate by age or gender. It can show up as pressure to build muscle, fear of rejection, the need for approval, or the urge to fit in even when it means betraying who we are. I'll walk you thr...

Have you ever wondered, “What am I actually supposed to be doing with my life?” Maybe you’ve reached a goal you thought would give you clarity, only to find yourself asking the same question again. For years, I thought my purpose was something I had to discover—a specific role, career, or destination. But what I eventually realized completely changed how I see my life: I don’t have to find my purp...

How often do you wake up already overwhelmed by everything you need to do? The list starts before your feet even hit the floor: work, kids, appointments, errands, exercise, meals, messages, and somewhere at the bottom of that endless list is you. The problem is not about having more time. Overwhelm happens when you don't prioritize intentional time with yourself. In this episode, I discuss the dif...

What if the biggest transformation in your life seems to be the number on the scale? For years, Cindy believed her problem was her weight. She knew her hormones were off. She was carrying more weight than her body needed, and she had tried diet after diet to fix it. But underneath all of that was something she couldn't see yet: a deeply ingrained belief that she wasn't enough. When Cindy took a se...

What if the reason you keep going back to old habits has nothing to do with willpower and everything to do with how your brain is wired? We often think transformation starts with motivation. We get excited, commit to a plan, and promise ourselves that this time will be different. But motivation eventually fades. And when change starts to feel uncomfortable, our brains naturally pull us back toward...

We spend so much time trying to fix ourselves–changing how we look, buying products, following wellness trends, taking supplements, and searching for the next solution. But what if our bodies are far more intelligent than we give them credit for? In this episode, I’m joined by Warren Phillips, the Non-Toxic Dad, for a conversation that goes deeper than toxins in food, clothing, and homes. We explo...

Sometimes the number on the scale keeps distracting you from what actually matters. For years, women have been taught to measure their health by weight, appearance, and perfection, but true health is about how you feel, how you show up, and whether you are taking care of yourself from a place of self-worth. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Kellyann Petrucci, a board-certified naturopathic doct...

What if the biggest thing standing between you and the life you want isn’t your body, your habits, or even your circumstances, but the story you keep telling yourself about who you are? In this episode, I’m having a conversation with my good friend Courtney Townley, keynote speaker and author of The Consistency Code . We’re pulling back the curtain on our upcoming From Corset to Crown event, but m...

What if knowing what you want is actually an act of self-worth? As women, we’re often taught to look outside ourselves for the answers: what we should wear, how we should look, what we should buy, and even what we should want. In this episode, I’m having a very different kind of conversation with Rachel Moscaritolo and Amanda Watkins, the women behind Bespoke by A+R, about jewelry, entrepreneurshi...

What happens when life changes direction and suddenly the things that once felt easy become impossible? A lot of women believe that when life gets stressful, overwhelming, or unpredictable, taking care of themselves has to go on pause. They wait for the storm to pass before they start showing up again. But life will always bring changing winds. The question isn’t whether you keep sailing–it’s whet...

For so many women, the search for worth takes us outside of ourselves. We chase the perfect body, the perfect career, the perfect relationship, or the next achievement that will finally make us feel whole. But what if the crown you’re looking for has been there all along? In this episode, I’m discussing what it means to truly straighten your crown, break free from the invisible corset of expectati...

Are you constantly trying to prove your worth? Maybe it shows up as perfectionism, over-functioning, people-pleasing, or feeling like you have to sacrifice yourself to be a good mother, partner, or successful woman. The truth is, many of us have been wearing an invisible “corset” for years, one that tells us we need to achieve, perform, shrink, or change ourselves to deserve confidence and worth....

Have you ever felt like you're doing everything for everyone else, yet still feel you're not enough? In this episode, I'm doing a deep dive on the "corset" concept—that invisible conditioning that keeps so many women trapped in people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-sacrifice, which leaves them perpetually drained. After years of helping women transform their health through nutrition and behavio...

Every January, millions of us set goals, and by the 17th, most of us have already quit. We've been told the problem is discipline. But what if the problem is having a goal in the first place? In this episode, I'm sharing the five real reasons I haven't set goals for myself for years. No weight goal, no revenue goal, no life milestone. This conversation actually started with my 21-year-old daughter...

After six years and hundreds of episodes as Diet Disruptors, I'm making a change that's been building in me for a long time. This isn't a rebrand for the sake of a rebrand. It's a shift in the lens we use to look at food, weight, and worth. In this episode, I walk you through why "Diet Disruptors" no longer fits where I want to take you. I share the story behind my new book, the metaphor of the co...

What if the pain you’ve been told to “just live with” isn’t actually permanent? What if your body can still regenerate, repair, and rebuild when given the right support? That's exactly what we're talking about today. I’m hosting Dr. John Dame, medical director at ReClinic in Utah, to explore the world of regenerative medicine and how stem cell therapy is changing the way we think about chronic pai...

What if the most dangerous thing you pass down to your daughter isn't a bad habit but a belief? In this episode, I sit down with Traci Peterson, board-certified nurse practitioner and founder of the Woman Lessons movement, to talk about what true confidence and self-love actually look like for women. Traci was standing at her kitchen sink when her nine-year-old daughter Quinn looked up and asked,...

You've heard of elderberry benefits for the cold and flu season. Did you know that it could actually impact your brain health, inflammation, and longevity? That's exactly what the latest research is showing, and I had to get my friend Emilia Rizzuto back on the show to break it all down. Emilia went from a Crohn's diagnosis at 15 and cycling through immunosuppressants for decades, to becoming a ce...

You work hard to eat clean, move your body, and support your health, but have you ever thought about what's in your tampons, pads, or period panties? In this episode, I sit down with Jennifer Eden to discuss this health topic that most women never think to question, yet it could be affecting so much, from period pain to hormone health. Jennifer shares how her debilitating endometriosis pain led he...

Getting dressed every morning shouldn't feel like a battle with your body or confidence. In this episode, I sit down with my personal stylist and founder of Storyteller Stylist, Carrie Hagee, to dig into something I've never really talked about on the podcast before: the psychology of style. Carrie has spent over a decade helping women reconnect with their identity through the way they dress, and...

We've all been there, tying our self-worth to weight loss, a job title, or a milestone we haven't hit yet. But what if that way of thinking is the very thing keeping you stuck? In this episode, Dr. Kasi Lacey and I get real about why so many high-achieving women struggle with confidence even after doing everything "right." Dr. Kasi is a psychologist, keynote speaker, behavior expert, and the autho...

Did you know the oils marketed to us as "heart-healthy" for decades may actually be fueling inflammation, obesity, cancer, and even anxiety? In this episode, I sit down with one of the world's most respected nutrition experts to expose potential dangers in your pantry and what to do about them. I'm joined by the incredible Cherie Calbom, bestselling author of over 36 books with more than 3.5 milli...

Have you spent years blaming yourself for not having enough willpower, discipline, or motivation to lose weight? In this episode, I’m talking about the lies of the diet industry and sharing why your body was never the problem in the first place. For decades, women have been deceived about dieting, weight loss, and what it means to be healthy. We’ll talk about why weight gain is often a symptom of...

If you've been hanging out with me for a while, you'll know I recently did a "diet dogma" series where I called out popular fads of the diet industry. And the responses? Let's just say they've been passionate. Some of you said, "Finally, thank you!" Others were pretty fired up, and I get it. What I teach isn't typical, and that's exactly the point. In this episode, I'm sharing the science behind w...
