Diet Disruptors

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...

This week's podcast is a group thang! We have not 1 but 3 guests and they are dishing about their unique stories and the success they have had with Disruptive Nutrition. These ladies all chose the journey to health for different reasons and their stories are powerful and very relatable. Dr. Anne, Jen & Kathy all had 1 thing in common, they all felt the bumps in the road about weight loss for t...

  It’s been a minute since we were actually live on our podcast and we are so excited to be back in action! The last few months have been complete chaos for Carrie. She sold her house in 1 day but her family’s new house wasn’t ready yet so they lived in 3 different rentals, 3 different hotels, sent their oldest to college, and their youngest was in a car accident. Yes, chaos!!! All of these t...

  You might have heard on our recent podcasts our guests, our coaches, and even Carrie talk specifically about their WHY. Meaning, the reason they started this health journey, the thing that keeps them going and the thing that has made it so successful. Today, we’re flashing back to an episode where Carrie shares her why and how one night at the family dinner table changed her, forever. ...

  We talk to women all the time who just want to lose weight, so let’s start by asking you a few questions: Why do you want to lose weight? And is the reason you want to lose weight coming from your ego or from your heart? It’s time to REALLY think about that. If it’s ego, then you’re approaching weight loss from a place that is never going to serve you long term and that’s fine; but that mea...

Have you been feeling a little like life seems out of control? Maybe things are happening around you that are out of your control, but those things are now affecting your mindset and you feel hopeless to things controlling you instead of the other way around? How often have you recently said, I cant do something because of X, Y, Z? One thing is certain, we cannot control all of our circumstances....

It’s time for a good flashback! This week, we are trying something a little different. We are talking FAQ’s with Carrie! We get so many questions that our coaches answer one-on-one in our coaching calls, but we thought now would be a good time to share all the good stuff here! We are all about transparency here at Disruptive Nutrition, and we know that what we teach is right for EVERY BODY whether...

Are you ready to talk about how temptation and making decisions can drain your willpower and self-control?! Short term choices that make long term consequences. Listen, it’s not just YOU, it’s ALL of us. Its also not your fault if you have lost willpower, it is literally innate human nature not to have willpower. There is a limit to what your brain can manage in a day. The ability to resist tempta...

We love these kinds of episodes and this one will resonate with everyone! This is an incredible story about emotional eating and the healing it takes to balance our body and our minds. If we asked our guest to introduce herself, it would go something like this: ‘Hi my name is Donna and I’m a sugar addict. I eat when I’m happy, or sad, or bored, etc. I LOVE to eat!’ Donna is the perfect example of...

Raise your hand if you’ve ever put your personal needs aside for someone else? Let’s say your kids, grandkids, or maybe a parent really needed you and instead of doing your morning time, or going to the gym or grocery grocery store as you had planned you show up for whoever needed you the moment they needed you. And then what happened? Did it derail you and set you back?    Meet real tal...
