BONUS 2: Confidence Confidential: How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome and Achieve the Impossible

BONUS 2: Confidence Confidential: How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome and Achieve the Impossible


Do you ever feel like a fraud? Do you worry that you will be “exposed” at any moment? Have trouble accepting praise? You may be suffering from Imposter Syndrome.


According to Psychology Today, people who struggle with imposter syndrome have an underlying belief that they are undeserving of their achievements. They feel that they aren’t as competent or intelligent or creative as others might think—and that soon enough, people will discover the truth. It It often disproportionately affects high-achievers, who find it difficult to accept their accomplishments.


Originally referred to as “Imposter Phenomenon” the concept was first brought to public attention by Psychologists Pauline Rose Clance and Suzanne Imes in a 1978 Study, which focused on high-achieving women. They say “Despite outstanding academic and professional accomplishments, women who experience the imposter phenomenon persist in believing that they are really not bright and have fooled anyone who thinks otherwise.” 


If you experience this feeling of being an imposter – You are not alone. Turns out 70% of us experience impostor syndrome at some point in our lives. 


You may have found yourself asking yourself the same questions over and over.


Who am I to start a blog, youtube channel, or podcast? Who am I to write a book, become a coach, or create an online course? Who am I to be a CEO or a Founder or an Influencer? Who am I to charge for my work? Who will listen? Who will watch? Who will care? What will people think of me?


The truth is you have a mission and a message to share with the world. With the news and media bombarding us with negativity, why wouldn’t we as artists and creatives and visionaries and entrepreneurs want to be bombarding the world with our gifts, our passions, our creativity?


Marianne Williamson says, “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be?”


Why can’t you start the next cutting edge podcast, blog or write that book? Why can’t you be the CEo of a fortune 500 company? Why shouldn’t you be the next YouTube or Spotify sensation? 


The good news about imposter syndrome is that you wouldn’t feel these feelings if you weren’t on the precipice of greatness. If you weren’t a high achiever. If you weren’t following your dreams. So congratulations! You’re about to step into who you are truly meant to be!


In this episode we deep dive into identifying the role the Imposter Syndrome plays in our lives and how to overcome it and gain the confidence we need to pursue our dreams.

BONUS 1: Creating Health and Wealth: Lessons Learned From My Crazy Sexy Entrepreneurial Journey

BONUS 1: Creating Health and Wealth: Lessons Learned From My Crazy Sexy Entrepreneurial Journey


This year I blew up my life, left The City of Angels where I had lived for 15 years, sold or gave away all my possessions except what I could fit in my car and my beagle Lily and I HIT THE ROAD.



I spent months in Florida, North Carolina, and now Tennesee. Travelled to Tulum multiple times. Spoke at conferences in New Orleans, Nashville and Costa Rica. Stayed at Air Bnbs and hotels in great cities like Palm Springs, Austin, Dallas, Savannah, and Asheville.


3 Quick Lessons Learned on the Road:


1. Love yourself enough to take your health, wealth, & ultimate destiny into your own hands. Never leave it up to others to determine your worth, your value, or your ability to accomplish your desires.


2. With a laptop, ring light, portable mic, and WiFi you can work remotely from anywhere in the world. You can create impact, influence, and income for yourself, your clients, and the people who you aim to help and serve.


3. If you stand in your power and move forward in confidence, the universe will conspire to meet you to support you.


The #DigitalNomad#EntrepreneurLife has been crazy, sexy, challenging, and rewarding. On the latest episode of The #FoodHealsPodcast, I share how I have navigated this journey, lost everything (more than once 😱) and continued to persevere, rebuild and pivot when necessary. I hope you’ll give it a listen.


To this day I have never had a full time job. I still dont know what I want to be when I grow up but I still believe I can be whatever I want as my passions evolve and I grow and change, I will continue to find avenues of income fueled by my passions. And I believe you can too.


That’s why I created a monthly mastermind for wellness entrepreneurs to build wellness empires.


Which over the past few years has grown into something greater than I ever could have imagined… a freaking online University!

Ritual Protein 

Protein powders can feel intimidating (‘no pain, no gain’), and their formulas opaque (not just because they’re a powder). But the truth is, deep down – as in, cellular level deep – we all need protein, and it’s about more than just muscles.

So Ritual’s team of scientists (hello, Harvard) reimagined protein from the ground up and inside out, from how it’s made to who it’s for and why it’s needed. The result is a delicious, plant-based protein – offered in three premium formulations for distinct life stages and unique nutrient needs – all made with the same high-standards approach and commitment to traceability that Ritual is known for.

Whether you’re doing reps… or more into dog walks! Introducing, Essential Protein – here to shake things up. So, why not shake up your Ritual? To make trying something new less scary, Ritual offers a money-back guarantee if you’re not 100% in love. Plus, my listeners get 10% off during your first 3 months.

Did you know probiotics are for our furry friends too? Introducing Best Dog Probiotic: Just Pets Probiotic: A clinically proven and powerfully effective spore probiotic to help your furry friend feel their best!

I sat down with Tina Andersen, Founder of Just Thrive to find out more! 

Unlike other forms of probiotics, Just Pets Probiotic spore probiotics were designed by nature to survive extreme temperatures and stomach acids so they always arrive in the gut alive.

Once they reach the gut microbiome, spore probiotics activate and quickly get to work clearing out bad bacteria and encouraging the growth of new, beneficial bacteria. This rebalancing process can support the optimal health and protection of your dog’s gut, resulting in numerous health and behavioral benefits. 

A clinical study involving healthy dogs and dogs with severe GI issues showed that a unique blend of spore probiotics made a dramatic difference.

Just Thrive Health Probiotics  Did you know probiotics are for our furry friends too? Introducing Best Dog Probiotic: Just Pets Probiotic: A clinically proven and powerfully effective spore probiotic to help your furry friend feel their best!   I sat down with Tina Andersen, Founder of Just Thrive to find out more!


When something’s wrong with your dog’s gut, you can tell.


Smelly gas takes over the room. You pick up foul-smelling poop (much worse than usual) on your walks. Or your dog has diarrhea that’s virtually impossible to clean.


Any of these issues point to an imbalance in your dog’s gut microbiome, the trillions of bacteria in your dog’s gut. When their gut is in healthy balance, beneficial bacteria (probiotics) vastly outnumber harmful bacteria (pathogens).


And when your best friend’s gut is out of balance – a condition called dysbiosis, where pathogens outnumber probiotics – it can affect much more than gas and poop. In fact, it could be the source of other health and behavioral challenges. 


Probiotics can’t work their magic if they don’t get where they need to go. And that’s where spore probiotics make all the difference for your dog’s gut microbiome.


Unlike other forms of probiotics, Just Pets Probiotic spore probiotics were designed by nature to survive extreme temperatures and stomach acids so they always arrive in the gut alive.


Once they reach the gut microbiome, spore probiotics activate and quickly get to work clearing out bad bacteria and encouraging the growth of new, beneficial bacteria. This rebalancing process can support the optimal health and protection of your dog’s gut, resulting in numerous health and behavioral benefits.

346: The Root Cause of All Disease and How to Heal – For Good – with Dr. Edward Group

The Root Cause of All Disease and How to Heal - For Good - with Dr. Edward Group

What if the root cause of all disease could be broken down to one thing? And what if knowing what that one thing was could empower you to heal your body, mind, and spirit for good??

Everyone wants to feel good. Feeling energetic, positive, and physically well every day is one of the keys to a happy life. There isn’t a person on this planet who wants poor health. Unfortunately, many factors in the modern world cause a decline in vitality — particularly environmental toxins, poor diet, stress, and lifestyle.

The ultimate key to health lies at the heart of todays’ guest Dr. Group’s philosophy and the concept that led him to build The Global Healing Center from the ground up — teach your body to heal itself.

(I know what you’re thinking! Could our values be in any more alignment?!)

The answer is yes! Like Allison, Dr. Group lost both of his parents to cancer at an early age. These losses propelled him into the world of natural health. As a Western-Medicine trained doctor, he had no idea the journey he would go on to discover the truth about the cancer industry, natural health, the root cause of disease and how to truly heal and thrive.

Dr. Group’s philosophy is simple: If you cleanse your body of accumulated toxins and take steps on a wellness journey, at your own pace, your body will start to heal itself. 

In today’s episode Dr. Group will break down the root cause of all disease and how to heal yourself- for good!


Tune in to Learn:

  • The Root Cause of All Disease
  • The Main Detoxification Organ You Need To Cleanse – NOW
  • How to Rid Your Body of Toxicity
  • How Dr. Group’s Patient Reversed Stage 4 Cancer After Being Given Months to Live

345: The Truth About Your Gut That No One Else is Talking About and How to Heal GI Issues for Good!

345: The Truth About Your Gut That No One Else is Talking About and How to Heal GI Issues for Good!


What do cancer, autoimmune disease, allergies, mental health, and fertility all have in common? 


The Gut!


Did you know that the microbiome in your gut does way more than just digest your food? 


It also…  

  • Helps you absorb nutrients and minerals
  • Helps regulate your immune system (kick flu season in the butt!)
  • Plays a big part of regulating your hormones. 
  • Can help improve brain health and function


AND…

  • It may also affect your weight.


All disease begins in the gut… so that’s where healing begins as well!


On today’s episode we’ve got four incredible guests who deep dive into where the core of most of our health problems lie and give tips and tricks to get you back to feeling your best and trusting your gut once again! 


Tina Anderson worked in the pharmaceutical business because she wanted to help others. She quickly realized that medicine was just making people sicker and that the best way to heal your body was to heal from the inside out. She founded a probiotics company called Just Thrive that carries a unique strain of probiotics that focuses and assist in naturally healing the gut. Now it’s her mission to help others thrive and feel their best. 


Dr. Will Bulsiewicz (also known as Dr. B) is an internal medicine doctor and expert gastroenterologist.  Dr. B discovered the untapped potential of a healthy gut. Having witnessed amazing results with his patients, he decided to spread the word beyond his clinic. Thus, the Gut Health MD was born.


Dr. Marvin Singh is an integrative gastroenterologist. He lost 40 pounds of his own by making lifestyle change to help heal his gut. He realized he could help people heal themselves by taking a comprehensive approach – one that brings together nutrition, genetics, and meditation.


Katherine Maslen watched a close friend suffer from and autoimmune disorder and realized her meds were doing more harm than good, thus, she created the Shift Clinic, an international wellness company that is changing the way we view health and empowering people to take control of their own health journey. 



Tune in to learn:

  • The major impact our microbiome has on our health
  • What a leaky gut is, and is it compromising my immune system?
  • How your gut can affect your mental health
  • How we are destroying our guts with antibiotics
  • How to use food to start healing your gut
  • How lifestyle, sleep, and activity can affect your microbiome. 
  • Swap the sugar for the fiber

  • Steps we can take to make our guts healthy again.
  • And more!

344: How Katie Krimitsos Healed Her Daughters Eczema with a Tropical Fruit and Loads of Love


If your skin itches and turns red from time to time, you might have eczema. This skin condition is very common in children, but adults can get it too.


But, did you know a simple solution that might already be in your fridge is a huge part of healing the scratchy symptoms? 


Katie Krimitsos didn’t either. When her youngest daughter was suffering from eczema, she felt lost, and the doctors had no answers.


Katie went on a mission to discover how to heal her daughter from the inside out and what she discovered was shocking:


1. There is that a single tropical fruit may be the answer to end itching for good.


2. Eczema is not a skin disease; it is a gut issue! (This changes everything!)

343: The 80:20 Rule For Plant-Powered Eating with Olympian & Vegan RHN Julia Murray

343: The 80:20 Rule For Plant-Powered Eating with Olympian & Vegan RHN Julia Murray


“Eat Food. Not too much. Mostly plants.” This is one of our favorite quotes from Michael Pollan. Can it really be that simple? Today’s guest, Olympian Julia Murray believes that it can be with her new app, 80/20 Plants.


80/20 Plants is the leading plant-based coaching service that moves people and the planet to a better future. The 80/20 Plants App delivers approachable and fun one-on-one coaching, along with community and practical education, that is accessible to anyone motivated to thrive on plants.


With the typical Western diet consisting mostly of processed foods, meat, and dairy, (which contribute to serious health issues including cancer, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes) there is no better time than now to start eating more plant-based food.


By incorporating most plants into your diet, you get an instant nutrition boost of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. A plant-based diet can also aid with weight loss, prevent and reverse chronic disease, and lower mortality rates. The planet will also thank you: shifting away from a meat-heavy diet helps to combat climate change and pollution!


That’s why I had such a great time with today’s guest! Julia is the co-founder, spokesperson, and coach of ‘80/20 Plants’ the plant-based transition app, and she’s the vegan blogger, and plant-based chef behind Hooked on Plants. She’s also been named one of Canada’s top vegan athletes by Impact Magazine and is certified as a Main Street Vegan lifestyle coach.

Ritual Protein 


Protein powders can feel intimidating (‘no pain, no gain’), and their formulas opaque (not just because they’re a powder). But the truth is, deep down – as in, cellular level deep – we all need protein, and it’s about more than just muscles.


So Ritual’s team of scientists (hello, Harvard) reimagined protein from the ground up and inside out, from how it’s made to who it’s for and why it’s needed. The result is a delicious, plant-based protein – offered in three premium formulations for distinct life stages and unique nutrient needs – all made with the same high-standards approach and commitment to traceability that Ritual is known for.


Whether you’re doing reps… or more into dog walks! Introducing, Essential Protein – here to shake things up. So, why not shake up your Ritual? To make trying something new less scary, Ritual offers a money-back guarantee if you’re not 100% in love. Plus, my listeners get 10% off during your first 3 months. Just visit ritual.com/FOODHEALS to add Essential Protein today.

Just Thrive Health Probiotics 


Did you know probiotics are for our furry friends too? Introducing Best Dog Probiotic: Just Pets Probiotic: A clinically proven and powerfully effective spore probiotic to help your furry friend feel their best! I sat down with Tina Andersen, Founder of Just Thrive to find out more!


When something’s wrong with your dog’s gut, you can tell.


Smelly gas takes over the room. You pick up foul-smelling poop (much worse than usual) on your walks. Or your dog has diarrhea that’s virtually impossible to clean.


Any of these issues point to an imbalance in your dog’s gut microbiome, the trillions of bacteria in your dog’s gut. When their gut is in healthy balance, beneficial bacteria (probiotics) vastly outnumber harmful bacteria (pathogens).


And when your best friend’s gut is out of balance – a condition called dysbiosis, where pathogens outnumber probiotics – it can affect much more than gas and poop. In fact, it could be the source of other health and behavioral challenges. 


Probiotics can’t work their magic if they don’t get where they need to go. And that’s where spore probiotics make all the difference for your dog’s gut microbiome.


Unlike other forms of probiotics, Just Pets Probiotic spore probiotics were designed by nature to survive extreme temperatures and stomach acids so they always arrive in the gut alive.


Once they reach the gut microbiome, spore probiotics activate and quickly get to work clearing out bad bacteria and encouraging the growth of new, beneficial bacteria. This rebalancing process can support the optimal health and protection of your dog’s gut, resulting in numerous health and behavioral benefits. 


A clinical study involving healthy dogs and dogs with severe GI issues showed that a unique blend of spore probiotics made a dramatic difference.
