2025/09/23

Today, we’re here to preach some serious truth about protein powder and protein snacks. Protein powder and snacks are one of the most popular dietary supplements in the US, but, just because the label says it’s high in protein doesn’t mean it’s high in protein. If you’re getting your daily protein through out of the box processed foods, we hate to break it to you, but you’re doing it wrong. We’ll share why protein powders and snacks aren’t as healthy as you think, and how you can hit your pro...

2025/08/05

Today’s episode of the podcast is about healing your relationship with movement. The fitness industry is riddled with diet culture, toxic fitness messaging, fear-based marketing, social media comparisons, and celebrity worship. No wonder so many of us think exercise is a form of torture to endure in order to look good for other people. We are moving away from the “no pain, no gain” mindset and toward the shift so many of us need: seeing exercise not as punishment, but as a form of empowerment...
