Muscle Myths Debunked: The Truth About Fat Loss

The Bite Size Podcast with Lorayne Michaels ·

2025/09/24

The ultimate showdown between cardio and weightlifting finally explained! After a recent podcast appearance with Angie Wisdom sparked numerous questions, I dive deep into what truly works for women's fitness, especially as we age. Let's start by shattering some persistent myths. Despite what you may have heard, muscle doesn't "weigh more" than fat—a pound is a pound regardless. The difference lies in density, with muscle taking up less space on your frame. And ladies, you won't get "bulky" f...

Finding Strength Beyond Addiction

The Bite Size Podcast with Lorayne Michaels ·

2025/09/10

Recovery isn't just a journey—it's a revolution of the heart, mind, and spirit. Having witnessed addiction devastate relationships and create cycles of pain, I've also seen the breathtaking transformation that occurs when people embrace the difficult but rewarding path to healing. The science of addiction reveals how our brains become hijacked through dopamine release when we turn to substances or behaviors that temporarily relieve pain. Whether it's alcohol, drugs, pornography, shopping, or...

Ever felt that gentle whisper urging you toward something greater? That persistent feeling you're meant for more? What if those aren't random thoughts but divine signals guiding you toward your purpose? Fresh from Lindsay Marie's Powerhouse Women's event in Scottsdale, I'm sharing the profound difference between my experiences attending the same conference one year apart.

2025/08/06

Your body is constantly communicating with you—but are you listening to what it's trying to tell you? When persistent bloating, constipation, brain fog, or unexplained fatigue disrupts your life, conventional medicine often offers little more than "it's normal" or "it's just stress." As registered dietitian and doctor of physical therapy Dr. Kate reveals in this eye-opening conversation, these symptoms frequently signal underlying gut inflammation that standard medical testing misses entirely...

2025/07/30

Ever found yourself hesitating to step into an opportunity because you don't feel "ready enough" or "successful enough"? That's exactly the journey we're exploring today. Change is not just inevitable—it's essential to our purpose. Whether through spiritual sanctification or personal development, staying stagnant is never the path forward. Yet so many of us resist showing up as our evolving selves, especially when we're not where we thought we'd be. I share a powerful message from a woman p...

Celebrate Recovery: Not Just for Addicts

The Bite Size Podcast with Lorayne Michaels ·

2025/07/23

Healing begins when we stop categorizing others as "the ones who need help" and turn the mirror on ourselves. For years, I believed Celebrate Recovery was just for addicts—until I found myself sitting in meetings meant to ensure my then-husband was attending. What I discovered changed everything. Celebrate Recovery isn't what you think. This Christ-centered program that began at Saddleback Church addresses not just addiction, but every human struggle: codependency, perfectionism, control iss...

2025/07/16

Ever catch yourself doing exactly what you promised you'd stop? Maybe it's falling off track with fitness goals, abandoning your spiritual disciplines, or self-sabotaging right before a breakthrough. The culprit isn't weak willpower – it's your subconscious mind running programs you never consciously chose. Your subconscious beliefs formed long ago through childhood experiences, words spoken over you, and past traumas. Like hidden software, they silently dictate your reactions, habits, and d...

Forget everything you thought you knew about nutrient absorption. While your expensive supplements might be turning into costly urine with only 20-50% absorption, IV therapy delivers nutrients directly to your bloodstream with 100% bioavailability. As a healthcare professional with over two decades of experience, I've witnessed the transformative power of therapeutic IV therapy firsthand.

Delayed gratification isn't just about willpower or discipline—it's a profound neurological process that literally reshapes your brain.

As a former EMT with over 20 years in medicine and a decade in fitness, I've seen firsthand how overwhelming it can be to figure out what's actually healthy.
