311: Can You Pursue Food Freedom AND Weight Loss with Jessika Brown

Can food freedom and weight loss goals co-exist?

Can you love your body and still want to lose weight?

Can you have discipline without rigidity?

In a world of polarized views, it's easy to fall into the trap of black and white thinking, and to end up confused and stuck in a pattern or all-or-nothing actions.

If you want to find that middle ground of consistency and sustainability, WHILE getting results and loving the journey, you're going to want to listen to my conversation with Jess Brown.

We cover:

????Why it can be so hard to just listen to your body and start intuitive eating when you're breaking the diet cycle
????The difference between discipline and obsession
????How to determine if your diet is right for YOU
????The impact your gut has on emotional and stress eating

Jessika Brown is a mom, wife, boss and is super passionate about health.

As a Registered Dietitian (RD) she has been working in the health industry for the last 13 years. Jess runs a medical nutrition therapy clinic and is an adjunct professor for nutrition at the University of New Mexico. She has certifications in Eating Disorders (CEDRD) and Sports Dietetics (CSSD). Jess has been trained as a Certified Wellness Coach and American Council on Exercise Group Fitness Instructor. Her passion project is hosting the Fuel Her Awesome Podcast.

One of her passions is public speaking and she has done so in several settings including speaking at corporate events, the New Mexico Dietetic Association Annual Conference, and TedxABQ Main Event. Check out her TEDx talk- “A Healthy Cause to Find a Healthy You.”

Spending so much time in the world of nutrition, mixed with a history of an eating disorder and the reality of being a mama to the stereotypical “mac and cheese and chicken nugget” kids – Jess has grown into a relationship with food and her body that is somewhere between intention and grace, discipline with sprinkles of flexibility. When she is not working you will likely find her somewhere in the mountains with her family and a cup of coffee in hand.
