Amy's guest today is Brooke Rozzie, an expert in Cycle Syncing and understanding how hormones fluctuate throughout the different seasons of our monthly cycle.

Amy shared a rundown of things she saw online this week that were an encouragement to her and good reminders for us all to keep in our back pockets!  Reminders like: Social media is not a dietitian. Eat like you won't binge later. Food is not something that has to be earned. Compliments that have nothing to do with weight. Some diet behaviors start off innocent.   Follow the hosts on ins...

Welcome to the '5th Thing' with Amy & Kat!! You’ll love today’s quote if you deal with any kind of back pain…but hopefully the conversation surrounding it doesn’t offend you because someone on IG was offended by something Amy once posted about this topic (this obviously led to a little chat about getting offended easily!!) Amy then went over a list of awesome life hack...

We learn:  The messaging Kathleen received that led her to begin dieting in grade school How to talk about...
