Ready to enhance your fitness levels and finally look and feel your best?!

This week I'm chatting with Caroline McGuire from Caroline's Kitchen! Caroline is an 18-year-old high school student in L.A, headed off to college on the East Coast very soon! She regularly creates a ton of delicious, healthy recipes and shares them on her website to help make healthy eating, and living, approachable for everyone. In this episode, we chat about the social media platforms that high school students use most regularly and how it affects their lives. Caroline shares how she finds the balance between being in high school, working on her blog, spending time with family and friends, and keeping up with all of her other extracurricular activities. She also talks about what it's like applying to college and how she's feeling now that applications are over. We discuss what high school girls consider to be "healthy," why people feel the need to label the way they eat, and what true health actually is. We talk about the difficulty of sorting through all of the confusing health information out there and what Caroline's approach to healthy eating is. We also talk about the differences between Instagram and real life, the normalization of disordered eating in our society, and the trends girls in high school are following. We talk about the difference between testing the boundaries as a teen and being too extreme, the responsibility of influencers to be honest with their audience, and what older generations of women can do to help younger generations.

For more from Caroline, you can find her on Instagram (@carolines_kitchen) and on her website, carolines--kitchen.com.You'll find all of her delicious, healthy recipes there!

This week I'm chatting with Ellenie Georgiou from The Low Carb High Fat Lifestyle (@the_lchf_lifestyle)! In this episode, Elle shares her inspiring journey of trying to find answers for her declining health over the years. Elle talks about the start of her health journey, why she initially chose to get breast implants years ago, and how she started to have mysterious symptoms. She shares her experience in the medical system with doctors disregarding her frustrations, how she learned to fight for her own health and stand up to doctors, and how she had to do much of her own research to eventually be able to heal herself. Elle also shares how she discovered she had Hashimoto's, an autoimmune disease, and her eventual discovery that Breast Implant Illness was at the root of her chronic health issues. Elle talks about how a ketogenic diet and burning fat for fuel reduced her inflammation so that she could start healing, and what the process has been like since getting her breast implants removed. She shares exactly how she has been able to put her Hashimoto's into remission, and the importance of addressing all lifestyle factors when it comes to health. We also discuss the importance of nutrient density, adjusting your diet for your body, and more.

For more from Ellenie, you can find her on Instagram (@the_lchf_lifestyle) and on her YouTube channel, The Low Carb High Fat Lifestyle. If you're interested in more support via the Facebook group Ellenie mentioned in the episode, you can join Breast Implant Illness and Healing by Nicole.

In this episode I chat with Lisa Bilyeu of Quest Nutrition, Impact Theory, and the Sheroic Podcast! From film student to full-time housewife to world-class entrepreneur, Lisa is a master of adaptation and personal growth. As a founding team member of the billion dollar company Quest Nutrition, she built the company’s revolutionary in-house media department, that not only made cutting-edge social marketing materials, but also helped facilitate the company’s meteoric rise to #2 on the Inc. 500 list of the fastest growing private companies. It was at this time - the peak of Quest's success - that Lisa began suffering from debilitating gut issues. Things were so bad that she could only stomach 4 ingredients for 6 months! Though she's still working through some problems, it was keto that absolutely saved her life! Now as co-founder and president of Impact Theory, her mission is to create impact in the world and empower women of all ages to see and believe that they can be anything they set their minds to.

In this episode, Lisa shares how Quest Nutrition got started and the trial and error that eventually led to the success of a billion dollar company. She gives advice on how to know when to give up on something and how to know when to keep pushing through. Lisa shares her top tips for going into business with a significant other, friend, or family member, and the importance of agreeing on roles and setting boundaries. Lisa also talks about her health journey with severe gut issues, how she eventually found out she had SIBO, and how a ketogenic diet allowed her to begin healing. We talk about how to balance health struggles with pursuing your passions, how it can impact our relationships, and how it can change your relationship with your body. We talk about having to choose between health and aesthetics, her experience with elimination diets, and much more!
