Think changing habits for good takes perfection? Think again. This episode is your guide to a better approach. Tune in as I share a journaling insight that will help you shift from passively hoping for change to actively practicing the skills that create it.

Key Takeaways

• Research shows that most people quit their goals because they lack a clear plan and the skill of habit change.
• Habit change is a skill—and learning it makes other goals (like eating healthier or exercising) inevitable.
• Try replacing the word “be” with “practice” to reframe goals as actions instead of the vague aspirations our brains love to give us.
• Progress comes from intentional practice, not passive waiting or seeking perfection.
• Align your head (thoughts), heart (feelings), and hands (actions) to create habits that last.

Ask yourself: What do I want to be? Then, brainstorm specific ways to practice becoming that person today. Listen to the episode as I walk you through my real-life example as I aim to practice patience.

Now for your DO of the DAY: What’s one small action you can take today to practice your way to becoming that person? Creating the habits that lead to health and happiness are built just one practice rep at a time.

It’s a first here on the podcast. We hit record on a Real Coaching session. My client Jillian and I tackle a question many parents face: How can feeding my family feel fun and easy? Join me as I coach Jillian, a mom of five living with multiple sclerosis, through creating a simple and sustainable system to make mealtime easy and fun (her biggest desire for feeding her family). Whether you’re fueling your own autoimmune health or your entire family’s,, this conversation is packed with relatable insights and actionable strategies to simplify your food routine.

You’ll walk away from our time together…

• Knowing how to use the strategy (aka “play”) of asking better questions to make habit change feel sustainable
• Respecting the power of a plan
• With tangible tips to bring more fun and ease to feeding a family in the name of autoimmune health
• Celebrating small wins…starting today
• Feeling inspired to put your newfound fun and ease into action
• With a glimpse behind the curtain of what it’s like inside the CLUB and my ninja skill as a coach

Jillian shared her wisdom on how she knew it was time to try coaching…

"The same thing that got us here may not get us to the next step. We need fresh perspectives, clear plans, and a little bit of fun to make it happen."

Your DO of the DAY, because without adding action to learning, change will feel hard.

Choose a day and time this week to set aside for your own “meal planning meeting.” Make it special—brew your favorite tea, play uplifting music, and carve out this time as a gift to yourself and your family. Commit to the plan and see how it transforms your week!

Want to join Jillian (and me!) inside the CLUB? Let's decide together if it's a fun and easy plan for you here.

In today's episode, I sit down with Brian Bentow, a fellow autoimmune health creator and entrepreneur who has turned his Crohn's Disease diagnosis into a launchpad for discovering his "Get Saucy" approach to health. By asking one powerful question, he's created a way to fuel his body AND eat delicious food.

A few highlights...

• Asking better questions to get wayyyy better answers to problems we face
• Finding what works for you when it comes to food is key
• Food connects us to memories, traditions, and emotions, and healing doesn’t have to mean giving up the joy of eating.
• Building a support squad of healthcare professionals, family, and like-minded individuals is key to navigating autoimmune health.
• Challenges, like dietary restrictions, can spark creativity and lead to innovations that benefit others.
• A round of my "habit rapid fire" to get a behind the scenes look into the habits of my guest.
• Your DO of the DAY <--don't skip this part! It's the action paired with learning that leads to change.

Get ready to dive into a conversation that blends health, habits, and a little nutty goodness! I’m chatting with Jamie Foster, founder and CEO of Georgia Grinders, about the art of balancing life as a mom, wife, and entrepreneur. Jamie shares her journey to health and wellness, why fats are not the enemy, and how small, intentional changes can lead to big results. Plus, learn why nut butters might just be the ultimate superfood for your snack game and your health.

A few highlights from the episode:

• Balanced meals and a balanced life is a habit we can make
• Healthy fats, like those in nut butters, are critical for brain health, satiety, and overall well-being.
• A play from the abc Habit Playbook that we cover is the “Fresh Start Effect,” grounded in research and super powerful to us during your next life transition
• When it comes to ingredient lists, we like ‘em short and simple
• How positivity is a choice, a habit we can make, to take on what life throws at us.
• Fats aren't the bad F word—they're the secret sauce for thriving. Our cells crave them, and our brains are made of them.

Your DO of the DAY:
Experiment with adding healthy fats to your meals. Try pairing an apple with your favorite nut butter and notice how you feel before, during, and after. Pay attention to how it impacts your energy and satiety.
