In this episode of Momentum Vitamins, we dig deep into what true, sustainable health really means — and why it’s about so much more than numbers on a scale. You’ll learn about the six pillars of holistic (or “deep”) health, how to evaluate where you’re thriving and where you’re stuck, and the life-changing concept of the “sphere of control.” I also share a personal story from my engineering career — the best advice I ever received — and how it shaped the way I coach clients, lead teams, and approach everyday chaos. This episode is your guide to letting go of the uncontrollable, owning your influence, and using focused energy to create momentum that lasts!!

Whether you just wrapped up our Spring into Summer Challenge or crushed a fat loss phase on your own—Congrats! Completing a cut is no small feat. But now what? In this episode, we’re talking all about what comes after a fat loss phase.

This week we break down two powerful (and practical) strategies for transitioning out of a cut—so you can maintain your results, protect your metabolism, and keep building momentum. From reverse dieting to mindful eating, you’ll walk away with a clear game plan to support your next season of health. If you’re ready to move forward with clarity and confidence, this one’s for you.

Last week, we talked about how your workouts are nutrition’s best friend — and this week, we’re taking that friendship to the next level. Once you’ve built a solid training routine, the next step is learning how to fuel your body around those workouts to actually see and feel the results you’re working for.

Whether you're hitting the gym at sunrise, sneaking in a session after work, or juggling a packed schedule — fueling well doesn’t have to be complicated. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down what to eat before and after your workouts to support fat loss, muscle building, and full-body recovery. You'll hear simple strategies, realistic food ideas, and the “why” behind the timing — all with zero pressure to be perfect.

Because at the end of the day, this isn’t about hacks or extremes. It’s about honoring your body, showing up with intention, and making sustainable choices that actually support your goals!!

We usually talk food first around here—but what if the changes you’re craving (more energy, lean muscle, fat loss) aren’t just about what’s on your plate?

What if it’s time to call in nutrition’s best friend: movement.

In this episode, we break down:

• What the 80/20 rule really means (and what it misses)
• Why certain workouts help (or hinder) your goals
• The truth about fat loss, muscle gain, and body recomposition
• How to make fitness fit—no matter how busy you are

Think of nutrition as your foundation—but workouts? They’re the blueprint that shapes the results. Whether you're just starting out or ready to level up, this episode will help you align your training with your goals in a way that’s doable, sustainable, and energizing.

Because when your food and fitness work together 🤝, your results finally start making sense.

This episode starts with a Mother’s Day gift—a giant cabinet. But it wasn’t just furniture. It became what my client proudly calls her “nutrition dresser”—a beautifully organized, macro-based food system that made healthy eating visible, simple, and family-inclusive.

And when she told me about it, I realized: this is more than a personal win—it’s a full-blown 5S system straight out of lean manufacturing.

In today’s episode, I walk you through how to apply the 5S method to your nutrition setup so that fueling your body becomes effortless, repeatable, and aligned with your goals. If you’re tired of relying on willpower… this one’s for you. It’s time to build a system that works with you, not against you.

In this episode, I’m fresh off a spring break hiking trip and sharing exactly how I travel without tossing my nutrition goals out the window. From mindset shifts to road trip snack hacks, I walk you through how I stay grounded without being rigid. We’re talking protein-forward meals, hydration habits, and how to pick indulgences without the guilt spiral. You’ll also hear the exact strategies I use to bounce back after a trip—because it’s not about perfection, it’s about keeping your momentum, even when life takes you off your normal path.

This week, we’re flipping the script on one of the biggest misconceptions in health and nutrition: that YOU are the problem, and you need more willpower to eat healthy. The Truth is, you probably don’t have a knowledge problem—you have a mindset problem. Which is actually really good news because mindset is something we can learn to shift.

In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact mindset shifts that can turn healthy eating from something that feels overwhelming and restrictive into something that feels natural and empowering.

We’ll break down:
— Why discipline isn’t the issue (and what is)
— How to stop “starting over”
— What it really means to eat healthy
— The difference between food rules and food freedom
— The power of redefining your identity and choosing your version of success

You’ll also hear some personal stories and practical ways to start rewiring how you approach food—because the best tool you have isn’t another meal plan. It’s your mindset.

Ever wondered what it’s actually like to work with a nutrition coach? In this episode, I’m breaking down the real deal—not just the “Instagram highlight reel.” Whether you're considering coaching but feel nervous, have some previous coaching PTSD, or you're already a client and want a little behind-the-scenes validation, this one's for you.

We’ll unpack the most common fears and misconceptions people have when they think about hiring a coach. You’ll learn how coaching offers structure, strategy, and support through the real-life messy middle—not just when everything is calm and easy.

I’ll also give you a glimpse into my personal approach as a coach: what you can expect, how I support my clients beyond just macros, and why this work goes far deeper than food. This isn’t about rules or restriction—it’s about helping you build confidence, momentum, and results that actually stick.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, I just don’t do it…”—this episode is for you.
