Episode 82: Why Does Fruit Get Such a Bad Rap?

11/8/2019

This year on the show, we've endeavored to clear up the confusion around some unpopular ingredients in current diet culture...from our many conversations about sugar, to our episode on carbs, to last week's episode on dairy sensitivities...well today Keeley and I carry on with this trend by trying to figure out why fruit is getting such a bad rap in certain circles. For those who keep fruit limited in their diets, this episode is not meant to cast shade on your choice! We just want to make sure the fruit lovers' voices are heard too. So let's jump in!

Episode 81: Dairy...is it a Sensitivity, Intolerance, or Allergy?

11/1/2019

"Do you do dairy?" It's a common question today! Whether you're like me-indiscriminate lover of all dairies (coffee is not coffee for me until it's got a healthy portion of cream in it) or Leah-sensitive but not quite intolerant...or full-blown allergic to the stuff, I think we can all agree that there's some confusion around dairy! Not to mention food sensitivities in general! So today, Leah and I are discussing dairy from this point of view. We'll clarify the difference between a dairy allergy and lactose intolerance and we'll address some of our favorite dairy alternatives too. Let's get into it!

Episode 80: The Solution to Chaotic Dinners?

10/25/2019

What is dinnertime like in your home? Are any of your kids in a selective phase where taking just one more bite of "healthy" food is the battle to end all battles...especially at 6pm when everyone's energy levels are tanked? Well today, Keeley and I are talking about a revolutionary feeding philosophy that could change all that! You all know by now I'm so not into gimmicky language, so I really mean it when I say it--the Division of Responsibility method MAKES SENSE. We'll discuss what it is, what it's not, and answer some common objections (namely: "What if my kid only ever eats one food for the rest of her life?"). Let's get into this!

Episode 79: True Rest

10/18/2019

While self care certainly includes quality rest, we think the topic of rest deserves its very own episode! So, dovetailing off of last week's show, today Laura and I are settling into this less-active, but equally intentional form of caring for oneself. Laura and I are each sharing what rest looks like for us on a daily, weekly, and seasonal basis. Let's get into it!

Episode 78: True Self Care

10/11/2019

Leah and I are a little tired of the guilt surrounding self care...and to be honest, we're not all that drawn to the self-centered approach to self care either. Today, we want to spend some time talking about how being responsible by filling our own cups helps us to show up to the world as we intend, able to pour into others' cups. Borrowing from the Season 1 discussion on holistic health, Leah and I can't wait to share with you the single most important way we're caring for ourselves in physical, mental, spiritual, relational, and vocational health...and we hope it inspires you to jot down your top priority in each of these areas too!

Episode 77: Heart Health

10/4/2019

After all the philosophy-heavy conversations we've been airing on the podcast recently, you may assume I mean to address the conditional of your emotional/soul health in an episode titled "Heart Heath". But just when you think I'm going to zig, I zag! (Bonus points if you can name that reference.) Today Jackie and I are getting into the nitty gritty of high fat diets, cholesterol, and heart health...all under the umbrella of why it's important to be aware of diet culture and following the money when it comes to contradictory nutrition advice. We'll explain...

Episode 76: The Highly Sensitive Person

9/27/2019

Laura and I are back behind the mic, coming at you with a topic that means a whole lot to us, personally. She and I each score quite high on Dr. Elaine Aron's Highly Sensitive Person questionnaire and have found both camaraderie and relief from being able to talk with other HSPs about some of our "quirks" more thoughtfully. Today we talk about what an HSP is, how this trait effects our health, and some of our most successful ways to cope with the onslaught of sensory input in our world. Let's get into it!

9/20/2019

Episode 73: Why Diets Don't Work

9/6/2019

This topic is a big one! After hinting at it for months now...we're here with a definitive stance on dieting once and for all. Today, Jackie and I are talking through why diets don't work and how to approach areas of health that still want attention in light of this fact. Hang tight 'til the end even if this one makes you a little squeamish because I'm offering some help that I hope will feel super practical. So, adopting this quote I love from June Tomaso Wood, say it with me: "My mind is not allowed to bully my body!" Now, let's dive in.
