Loved this convo with my friends + colleagues - Gabi + Natalie - from Pulse Business Consulting. This episode is atypical from my normal nutrition and fitness content as we dive into the world of business, consulting and optimizing performance in the workplace. There are a lot of similarities between business and health that we discuss as well. Topics discussed on this episode:

-What does having a 'healthy' business mean?

-Using data to drive the decision-making process.

-Important data points we can use in business and how that relates to human health.

-Understanding + creating budgets to operate within.

-Asking for help, being proactive and checking your ego.

-Individualizing interventions to clients and meeting them where they're at.

-Importance of building your business around the right people.

+ so much more in-between.

It was fun diving into the business world on this one. I know you'll enjoy it.

This is a continuation of our Q&A from episode #90. Having a little more fun and talking about some less important (but still really important) topics we got questions on this past week. Things like:

-What our favorite stuff is at Trader Joe's

-How to go about implementing meditation + deep breathing into your daily routine

-Favorite quotes

-Hidden talents we have (not that many lol)

-Why we're so 'cool' (big emphasis on the quotes there)

Had a lot of fun with Erik on the last couple episodes - follow him on instagram if you don't already: @eunder_wood

Appreciate you listening!

Another amazing episode with my guy - Erik Underwood. Probably the best episode we've done together so far - answering your questions from Instagram this week:

-What's an unpopular fitness opinion we have?

-How to battle the urge to go off the rocker when you mess up a day of tracking + avoiding F it mode.

-Nutrition guidance for clients that don't want to track calories (mainly for weight loss goals)

-Are there differences between men and women from a training standpoint?

-What's a question we wish people would ask but no one ever does?

-Push/pull split vs full body workouts.

+ so many side tangents in-between.

I loved this episode and I know you will too.
