The Renae Saager Show

Ok ok, lets clear this one up. This is a topic that has come up several times over the last couple of weeks. Something I will often tell women is, "Whatever you do with your food is fine." or "Whatever happens with your food is fine". And what this can get misinterpreted as, "All food is exactly the same and even if all you eat it donuts and ice cream it is fine because wh...

Can you have TOO much of a good thing? I believe yes. But where is the line? How do you know when you've crossed it?

I also share what to do if while you are listening to this you realize, " Oh no! I am in the inundat...

This is somethi...

A belief is just a thought you think over and over and over and then believe it to be the truth.

In this episode, I share with you my most expensive and deadly thought I carried with me for almost 20 years. It was dropping this sing...

THE most important relationship you will ever have. However, you forget that.  When you are working on your goals, wanting better, to do more, feel happier, you forget about you. You forget that your brain and your body are on the same team. You try and reach your goals with more pressure, more rules, more hate,  pushing through the discomfort, and showing up no matter what. Then you wonder why yo...
