In today's episode, I go over the top five reasons to get into an intuitive eating group coaching program (ASAP!!) and why it's the only form of group coaching I offer my clients. 

Nadia Kashouh, is the founder of The Kash Method, a holistic women’s health coach, sought after speaker, a passionate encourager, and most importantly, a follower of Jesus.

After bartending for 10 years, Nadia realized that she was heading nowhere and heading there quickly. She made the decision to no longer be a victim of her circumstances, instead, became a victor of life.

Over the past 8 years, Nadia has committed to her health legacy and has helped women worldwide to do the same. She is extremely passionate about building women from the inside out. She believes when a woman is empowered, a generation is transformed. To empower women on how to build a health legacy that they are proud of and can pass down to generations. Fitness is not one size fits all and neither is movement. She believes we have to build a foundation of belief that is independent on our physical being, but from a conviction that’s from within.

Her goal is to share her testimony and encourage others to LOVE themselves where they are at, while believing in the goals and the dreams that they have and want to become. She believes women are way too hard on themselves and it's time to be intentional and change the narrative. She teachers her clients how to Unlearn toxic behaviors and thoughts and relearn how to love ourselves genuinely: spirit, mind and body.

In today's episode, I discuss why you ARE "sick enough" to seek help, support and accountability toward healing your relationship with food, weight and your body; whether you are a chronic dieter, or overweight, or have a full-blown eating disorder.

This is a recycling of a guest spot. I had the pleasure of speaking with Michele Simms, host of The Beauty in the Mess podcast. 

Michele Simms is a Christian, wife, and mother of 4 along with two furbabies. She is a toolmaker by trade, a database Administrator, and a Professional Maintenance Co-Lead at a large automotive facility by day. She and her family have had many significant health issues over the years, and in 2021, she felt a nudge from God to start her podcast, The Beauty in The Mess, in order to share others' wisdom, knowledge, and experiences along with a little of her own. There are always gifts even in some of the darkest situations if we look hard enough (a lesson learned, a connection, faith, etc.). The hope is that we can all help each other overcome life's challenges easier and quicker and accelerate our journeys to who we were truly meant to be in this life.

As part of that lifelong mission to help people realize their potential, Dr. Lake hosted a local community radio show, “The Dr. Lake Show,” interviewing interesting experts like Dr. Bruce Lipton, cell biologist, Dr. Anat Baniel, brain scientist, and Dr. Lee Pulos, clinical psychologist /international speaker. A fascinating host, she pivoted to the podcast world and now hosts “The Dr. Lake Show,” focussed on engaging in conversations for change about any area of life that affects our well-being, including emotional, physical, relationship, financial, and community aspects of life. 

We talk about the two roots of disordered eating: culture and trauma. Listen in as we discuss how disordered eating can arise from these two streams and some coping mechanisms for finally dealing with those deep-seated issues.
