Diet Disruptors

Admittedly, we are totally obsessed with a True Crime binge session and the courtroom has got us thinking about our own motives. The motive is legally irrelevant but always admissible. Why? Because the motive really matters. Just how believable is the story of what happened? Let’s apply this to our own health when we think about the first 5 letters in the word…MOTIV is the same as motivation! It s...

Do you look at food as either good or bad? If you do, you’re not alone. Many of the women we talk with have expressed that food is binary. It’s one thing good, or the other, bad. But this isn’t really the full picture despite many diets wanting you to think that if you just eat healthy, you’ll lose weight and achieve a number on the scale.   There’s a reason those diets inevitably fail, and y...

Do you know what calories actually are? We know that seems like a silly question, but when you’ve grown up in diet culture people seem to view calories as an indicator of how healthy or not food is.    Calories are simply the amount of energy that is in food. Read that again.   250 calories of Oreo cookies is not the same as 250 calories of chicken on a salad, right? The difference...

  Here we go! Many of you have asked for Carrie’s response to this and today, well…she’s giving it. Completely raw and unleashed!  This topic isn’t simple, and it’s laced with confusion and controversy. Not to mention, there is no long-term scientific data to support its safety.   But we get it, right? We see why these drugs are so attractive on the surface. We have been taught, ove...

Sometimes our emotions get a hold of us! How many of you have ever thought SCREW IT! I’m eating the (cake, cookies, ice cream, donuts, etc! And then you feel gross afterward?! You soon realize that you sabotaged yourself because you were on a healthy eating path. You tell yourself you have no willpower, and no control and ask yourself, WHYYYYYY?!   Anyone???   You’re not alone, and it’s...

If you’ve been paying attention the last couple of weeks you would know that we just ran an incredible 5-day (well 6 days really), LIVE Lifestyle Launch that was entirely free! Carrie was live every day with content related to not only the formula for food freedom that we have created, but also provided details on the Disruptive Nutrition recipe for success! We received so much feedback from our s...

Our entire team has been hard at work getting our 5-Day Live Challenge launched this week, so we aren’t going to be live, but are featuring a flashback episode that we think is really important!  We are revisiting the term GHOSTING.  While we all equate ghosting to dating or friendships gone wrong… the most dangerous ghosting of all is the one that so MANY of us are doing to our OWN bodi...

85% of women have disordered eating or lack of confidence in their body. Read that again 85%!!!!  We can’t even blame it on social media because we’ve been influenced for decades to think that our value as women is tied to how we look. Anyone remember that Special K Pinch an Inch campaign!?   In honor of LOVE month, don’t you think it’s time to start loving yourself again!?   We are...

This week we are flashing back to a really important episode about the things we tell ourselves.  Raise your hand if you've been telling yourself you're just too busy to actually make changes related to your overall health! Consider this, your reality is based on how you see things as they appear to YOU and, it's all an illusion! Gasp! We know! Your truth, the thing you tell yourself, is actu...

Have you ever thought to yourself I know what to do, I just don’t do it? It’s not just you! There is actual psychology around why we don’t stick to things!    Our brain loves change and new things, but it doesn’t like anything that is actually unfamiliar. As soon as our brain recognizes what is unfamiliar, even if it is a good change, we can start to self sabotage.  Before you know...

Do you love yourself? We’re serious! Read that again, process the question and answer it honestly. Do you truly love yourself or do you hate your body so much that you’ve been searching for things to fix it your whole life?!  That’s a big question, right? With Valentine’s around the corner and our new book study launching, we thought it was the perfect time to start asking. I magine if we had...

We are digging into something a little controversial this week! Who has heard about the Netflix documentary series, You Are What You Eat: A Twin Experiment? The idea for the series is based on an 8-week study conducted by Stanford University that put sets of genetically identical twins on opposing diets: omnivore and vegan.  Now, we are all for a good study! In fact, we love it, but this fail...

Here at Disruptive Nutrition you may have heard us say, even coaches need a coach! Well, this week, we’re proving it with Deb’s story. Deb is an abundance & life coach and has been working with DN for the last 6 months.    For the first time ever, she’s NOT starting a new diet to kick off the year! Blood sugar regulation was what caught Deb’s attention and what she realized was missi...

The number one topic of discussion recently has been around menopause and let’s be honest, from what society has told us about what to expect, the hot flashes, the night sweats, the lack of sleep, etc. why wouldn’t we be dreading it? It’s like society wants us to feel like somehow the greatest part of our life is over?! Despite what we’ve been told, this is actually an incredibly powerful time to...

Do you feel in control during the holidays? Or does it feel like total chaos? If your answer is the latter, you’re not alone! DN to the rescue! We are doing something a little differently this week and featuring a holiday special designed to help you thrive during the holidays! Each of the Disruptive Nutrition coaches are here to support you and you’ll hear helpful tips from many of them this week...

Has anyone ever asked you what your WHY is? You know, that thing that drives you, gives you a purpose and doesn’t let anything get in the way of it (there’s no derailing from this you guys). Real transformation doesn’t occur until we can change our thinking and keep our why really strong. Because that little voice in our head will get to us each and every time otherwise, sound familiar? Oftentimes...

It’s that time of year! We’ve made it past Thanksgiving, Christmas is right around the corner and everyone is starting to think about their goals going into the New Year. Especially this week’s guest, Irene. In the last 5 years alone, she started a new diet every New Year.  She was having some pretty regular symptoms: in addition to heart palpitations, she would get shaky and feel her blood s...

Why is nutrition so important? This week, you’ll discover it in a way that you’re not expecting. This time of year is all about giving, serving and providing. We are thrilled to be able to introduce you to the Koltael Foundation. A mission to help indigenous communities in  impoverished rural areas by building schools and providing education for children.    This foundation is near...

If you’ve had a colonoscopy you know how awful the prep is, right? Did you know you need a colonoscopy at 45? At 48, Carrie completed her first and was absolutely dreading the entire process. Colon Cancer is affecting people at younger ages so the medical industry moved up the screening date to 45 (it was previously 50). Dr. Anna is your friendly neighborhood butt Dr. :) And she’s talking with Car...

You know we love a special guest and this week we are talking to Sonia Fleck about her experience with Disruptive Nutrition! Her story is one that is very relatable! Sonia is a night nurse and having been through trauma she got very good at compartmentalizing as a defense mechanism for avoiding digging deep and healing. As a result, she was in constant fight or flight.  While she was at her i...

The majority of people we work with here at Disruptive Nutrition have literally dieted their way to obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Read that again. It’s not because they haven’t dieted, it's because they HAVE. The research is very clear - but we keep looking for something new, quick and easy for weight loss. So why is stabilizing your blood sugar so important, even if...

Ok, let’s be honest, plant based is NOT easy. It’s especially not easy living out of an RV. But, thanks to Coach Bev and her husband Ray we are now experts in Plant Based. They put all of their trust in Disruptive Nutrition from the very beginning and we quickly worked together to build incredible resources for our Vegan community. Listen to this week’s podcast to learn how vegans do PFC3. After a...

How many decades have you been dieting? Is it weight loss you’re going for or do you want to be healthy? This will lead you in two very different directions. Diets are actually making you un-healthier, but let’s be honest, there is so much confusion out there! Do you find yourself  scrolling through Instagram, TikTok or Facebook to look at recipes and strategies for weight loss or are you pay...

Diet culture is everywhere! We see the idea of healthy = skinny in all of our messaging, and we are taught very early on, that what we look like matters more than anything else, right? It’s time to UNDO diet culture! We shouldn’t have to change our body in order to be happy or healthy! In honor of changing this perception and helping more people, we have something special coming…..we’ve only ever...
