09 Mar 2022111. How to Stop Negative Self Talk With Jane Tornatore PhD, LMFT00:56:59

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Three of the biggest barriers to long-term weight loss I often hear are: negative self-talk that leads to self-sabotage; a lack of healthy boundaries with little time and energy to focus on yourself; and frequently putting the needs of other people above your own - at the expense of your own health. 

Dr. Jane Tornatore has a PhD in Family Social Science and Family Therapy. As a recovering perfectionist, she knows the pain of being bogged down by old beliefs, feeling responsible for everything, and never quite measuring up to expectations. 

Through her own ongoing inner growth work and exploration, she continues to discover the freedom and peace that come from questioning old beliefs, being gentler on herself, and living more from her heart, not expectations of others or old beliefs. 

You’ll find this episode extremely valuable if, like me, you’re a recovery perfectionist and people pleaser.

Highlights From This Episode

  • Why removing “should, must, have to, and need” from your vocabulary can drastically reduce your unconscious stress. 
  • Why Dr. Tornatore pivoted from 20 years working in Alzheimer’s research to Family and Marriage therapy. 
  • What is a thought inhibitor, and how do they get in the way of following-through on our good intentions?
  • How we can stop making unhealthy food (instant gratification) more important than our health.
  • Why losing weight alone won’t make you feel more worthy - and how you can start to feel like you’re enough now. 
  • Tips to reduce perfectionistic tendencies. 
  • How to identify unconscious stress and master your stressful thoughts.

23 Mar 2022114. Lyme Disease Causes, Symptoms, Testing & Treatment With Dr. Diane Mueller00:55:54

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this episode, Dr. Diane Mueller covers the causes, symptoms, testing, and treatment of Lyme disease. Lyme disease is known as the great mimicker. If you have been diagnosed with irritable bowel disease (or IBS) there is likely an underlying condition causing those symptoms. 

The ones Dr. Mueller covers in this interview are Lyme disease, Mold disease, and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). 

Do not settle on irritable bowel syndrome as a diagnosis. Taking medications to band-aid your symptoms does not address the root cause of your gut and health issues. 

If you have chronic pain or chronic gut issues, watch this episode and learn your next steps for testing and treatment of digestive dysfunction.

Highlights From This Episode

  • The problem of treating symptoms instead of getting a proper diagnosis and solving the problem. 
  • Dr. Mueller’s chronic constipation for over a decade led her to naturopathic medical school to finally fix her gut issues. 
  • Symptoms of Lyme disease and when to test for Lyme disease. 
  • How to find a doctor that treats Lyme disease. 
  • How to treat Lyme disease. 
  • Why Lyme and other infections so often occur together. 
  • Symptoms, testing, and treatment of Mold disease.

05 Mar 2022110. How to Use the Law of Attraction to Manifest Better Health00:27:18

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Habits of action come from habits of thought. If you want to lose weight for good, learn how to use the law of attraction to manifest better health. Losing weight, maintaining weight loss, and getting healthy doesn't have to be hard. That is a limiting thought you’ve been telling yourself. 

The key is to learn how to use the law of attraction to keep your focus on your desire, not the lack of your desire. This will create positive thoughts, emotions, actions, and results.

If you struggle with weight loss (or maintenance) mindset or want to dive deeper into weight loss psychology, buy the book Ask and It Is Given by Esther and Jerry Hicks. For those who need a little less woo woo mindset book, I recommend the book I Am Enough by Marissa Peer

NOTE: The URL for the free mindset training changed from the /feelgood link I said in the video. Go to https://www.zivli.com/freeaudio for that free mindset training.

Highlights From This Episode

  • Overview + book recommendation - Ask and It is Given: Learning to Manifest Your Desires by Esther and Jerry Hicks
  • How habits of action stem directly from habits of thought…and why you feel like you work so hard and see SO little results. 
  • What is the law of attraction?
  • Why paying attention to your emotions (not ignoring, not stuffing) may be the ticket to changing your habits. 
  • How so many people inadvertently use the Law of Attraction to attract the opposite of what they want. 
  • What to do if you’re experiencing a negative emotion to guide your thoughts in a more productive way. 
  • Example of a manifestation for better health + some of my own affirmations that I use each day. 
  • Why knowing your definite purpose (overall health goal and why it’s important to you) is so important to make changing your negative thoughts and emotions to positive.

29 Jun 2022129. Surprising New Theory on Long-Term Weight Loss With David Prologo, MD, FSIR, ABOM-D00:47:39

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Dr. David Prologo is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist. Dr. Prologo has spent more than twenty years specifically analyzing the phenomenon of diet attrition—why do diets always fail? More importantly, when they do fail, why do we blame the patients for that failure?

That journey led Dr. Prologo to perform first in human advanced interventional procedures to manage obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. It further led to the identification of the catching point—a clear pivot point beyond which calorie restriction and exercise are easier for patients.

Many people think that if you can’t lose weight, there’s a willpower problem. Dr. Prologo explains why this theory is totally wrong. In this episode, Dr. Prologo dives deep into what stops people from losing weight and sustaining weight loss. Tune in as we talk about reaching critical exercise capacity, the importance of recovery, and how to start craving healthy foods.  

Highlights From This Episode

  • The inspiration behind Dr. Prologo’s passion for helping people with weight loss.
  • What's stopping you from losing weight? 
  • Hunger signals are coming from the body to the brain.
  • Healthier eating habits revolve around a critical exercise capacity.
  • Why your chances of sustaining weight loss are less than 5%.

A lack of follow-through and overwhelm always stem from a limiting thought. This quick-tip episode stems from many conversations with clients and Zivli members about weight loss overwhelm and lack of follow-through. Consistency is the name of the better health game. Crash diets and yo-yo dieting do not work for long-term weight loss. Adopting healthy habits that keep insulin and inflammation low does.

12 Oct 2022150. The Biggest Cause of Fatty Liver Disease & Insulin Resistance With Richard Johnson, MD, FACP00:56:43

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Nearly 1 in 4 have fatty liver disease and 88% of adults are not metabolically healthy. This episode will explain why fatty liver disease is a direct result of excessive fructose. Fructose is found in sugary foods but can also be made in the body from high glycemic carbohydrates and alcohol. Excess fructose is the primary driver of poor metabolic health and liver insulin resistance.

In this week’s episode of the Reshape Your Health Podcast, I interview Dr. Richard Johnson, author of Nature Wants Us to Be Fat. He explains the link between fructose, fatty liver, and insulin resistance. We discuss how our biological fat storage process works and how to shut it off. You’ll learn dietary recommendations to lower fatty liver and insulin resistance. We also touch on central insulin resistance, how sugar affects the brain, and why Alzheimer’s is being called Type 3 Diabetes. This conversation was truly fascinating.

Dr. Richard Johnson is a Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado in Denver and has been a practicing physician and clinical scientist for over 25 years. He is internationally recognized for his seminal work on the role of sugar and its component fructose, in obesity and diabetes. His work has also suggested a fundamental role for uric acid (which is generated during fructose metabolism) in metabolic syndrome. He has previously authored The Sugar Fix with Timothy Gower in 2008, and The Fat Switch in 2012.


Highlights From This Episode

  • What happens when the “survival switch” turns on and stores fat? 
  • What foods turn the survival switch and liver insulin resistance on?
  • The #1 food that causes non alcoholic fatty liver disease.
  • Is whole fruit bad for liver health?
  • What foods cause the production of fructose in your body?
  • Alcohol’s effect on liver health is due to fructose. 
  • AMP, IMP, and TMAO: How shellfish, processed meats, and beer can contribute to insulin resistance.
  • Central insulin resistance and how sugar affects the brain.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this episode, you'll learn the best question to ask yourself to stop procrastinating weight loss. Plus, you're invited to our Healthy Holidays Workshop!

Imagine how you could be more present at parties if you weren’t constantly feeling fat, or obsessing over the food that you want, but “can’t have.”

What if you didn’t even want the Halloween candy? 🤯

What would it feel like to stop after one just piece of pie at Thanksgiving, and be satisfied.

What if you didn’t overeat or emotionally eat at togethers?

What if when a coworker offered you a donut or cinnamon roll you simply said, “No thanks.” instead of giving in to the constant temptation and food peer pressure?

Wouldn’t it feel amazing to have self-control around sweets, and be able to have a little (if you choose) without feeling like you’re getting completely off track, or give yourself a mental beatdown?

All of this is possible. It’s taken me years to learn how to be healthy through the holidays, and if you join me for the Healthy Holidays Workshop you’ll get all my best strategies in less than 90 minutes.

You’ll leave feeling motivated to start the holiday season strong, without fearing food. Go to www.zivli.com to register today.

19 Oct 2022152. Healing From Trauma & Limbic Loops With Don Wood, PhD00:59:20

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

According to the National Child Traumatic Stress Network, 78 percent of children reported more than one traumatic experience before five years of age. (https://www.nctsn.org/

Unresolved childhood trauma often manifests in adulthood as multiple health problems, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and a lack of direction. 

Trauma is a wide umbrella with some events being more obvious than others. Examples of trauma include the death of a loved one, rape, physical, mental, or emotional abuse, divorce, a breakup, bullying, natural disasters, accidents, war, and the list goes on. 

Traumas cause a loop in the brain to be formed that makes you feel unsafe. Without healing and “resetting” your brain’s thought waves, you could be caught in a subconscious fight, flight, or freeze situation. 

Don Wood, PhD, is the author of two top selling books, Emotional Concussions and You Must Be Out of Your Mind. He is the Founder & CEO of the Inspired Performance Institute, and creator of the patented TIPP method. 

TIPP is a cutting-edge method inspired and developed through the newest developments in neuroscience and designed to clear away the effects of disturbing or traumatic events, repurpose old patterns and set the individual’s mind up for peak performance. 

Dr. Don’s TIPP method helps reboot the brain’s stuck thought patterns. This makes it possible to stop chronic negative thought loops (AKA limbic loops), and not let the pain of past trauma continue to affect you today.

Highlights From This Episode

  • What counts as “trauma” and how do we identify it in ourselves? 
  • Resisting our traumas, and moving on. 
  • How traumas manifest in later life. 
  • How do you help people uncover the root of their trauma?
  • Time Slice Theory: What it is and how it works. 
  • How are trauma and physical health linked? 
  • Addiction and how it can relate to food.
  • Solutions to stop the sugar cravings loop.
  • How long does it take to re-code your brain? 
  • Practical tip to take into your own life.

Her educational background gave her the insight to know that when her son said his brain was “buzzing,” something was wrong.

After behavioral therapy, discipline, and everything else she could think of wasn’t helping, she stumbled upon an article that linked food dyes to hyperactivity and similar symptoms her son had. Removing food dyes from his diet wasn’t easy. There are red, green, yellow, and blue dyes. Food marketed to kids is especially high in artificial dyes - think skittles, cereals, M&Ms. But other products like sunscreen, gum, and toothpaste had them, too.

Her son experienced severe withdrawal but slowly started to improve. After removing all artificial food dyes from her son and family’s diet, he no longer had behavioral problems and was able to heal physically and mentally. Her TEDx talk, The Effects Of Artificial Food Dyes, was so moving and I asked her to share her and her son’s story today on the podcast. 


Highlights From This Episode

  • Dr. Bevans shares her son’s story on how artificial food dyes affected his health and behavior
  • Why removing red 40 wasn’t enough and common foods that contain yellow, green, and blue dyes affected him, too. 
  • What happened to Dr. Bevan’s son after food dyes were removed from his diet.
  • Did his doctor’s say anything about artificial food dyes affecting behavior?
  • What about the effects of added sugar on behavior?
  • When behavioral modification and counseling isn’t working.
  • How to know if your food has artificial food dyes.

30 Nov 2022161. How to Check Your Insulin Levels at Home00:05:31

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

This video explains how to check your insulin levels at home to determine if you have insulin resistance with our at-home insulin resistance test. We offer a single insulin test, or a more comprehensive cardiometabolic panel. 

To learn more and order a test, go to www.zivli.com/testing

Knowing your insulin levels can be a very important marker for your health status, and motivating to track along your health journey.

Fasting insulin has been shown to predict type 2 diabetes over 10 years before fasting glucose, and over 88% of adults in America have some degree of insulin resistance. 

So even if your glucose or hemoglobin A1c are at normal levels, that doesn't mean you have optimal metabolic health. Insulin is a much better indicator.


Highlights From This Episode

  • Why checking insulin is more important than glucose or A1c, especially if your blood glucose and A1c are in healthy ranges.
  • The at-home insulin testing process and what you can expect. 
  • What the Cardiometabolic Test Kit includes. 
  • Other signs & symptoms of insulin resistance.
  • Learn more about Zivli helps you lower insulin resistance and inflammation for long-term weight loss and better health.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this episode you’ll learn what a healthy blood insulin level is, and how to interpret your blood results.

At Zivli, we advocate prevention before prescription and think it’s wise to reverse risk factors before they become disease.

To order one of these tests go to www.zivli.com/testing. You can also use blood work obtained from your doctor, but you may not have all the values discussed here.

  • How to check your insulin levels at home. 
  • How to download a free health assessment tracker form.

14 Dec 2022163. What Does Low Carb Do to LDL Cholesterol? (LDL-C Versus LDL-P Explained)00:10:58

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

This episode explains what a low carb diet does to LDL cholesterol. In it, I explain the difference between LDL-C (cholesterol) and LDL-P (particle number). 

One of the most common objections we hear about people not wanting to eat more animal products is a fear of their cholesterol going up. Much confusion exists over whether high LDL cholesterol is okay or not for your health. 

Often, physicians are prescribing statins based solely on total or LDL cholesterol numbers. This exposes people who may not actually need the medication to undesirable side effects including muscle aches, pain, fatigue, and increased insulin resistance. 

This video explains when that’s okay, and how to actually know your risk of cardiovascular disease besides relying on total cholesterol or LDL cholesterol. As you’ll learn, these are very poor indicators of your risk.



Highlights From This Episode

  • What is cholesterol?
  • Difference between LDL-P (particles) and LDL-C (cholesterol).
  • LDL Pattern A versus LDL Pattern B.
  • Why LDL-P is more important than LDL-C when determining cardiovascular risk.
  • Does high LDL cholesterol cause heart disease? + Why you shouldn’t accept a statin based solely on high total or LDL cholesterol.
  • Common side effects of statins on muscles and insulin resistance.
  • Why you don’t need to fear eating saturated fat.
  • How to look at the research on low-fat diets.
  • Why total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol go up on a low-carb diet.

21 Dec 2022165. How to Not Snack While Traveling + 4 More Tips to Stay Healthy While Traveling00:15:20

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Snacking on crackers, cookies, and sugary drinks is a sure-fire way to raise insulin and gain weight. 

If you struggle with the “all-or-nothing” mindset, once you start on the carbs, you may be tempted to throw in the towel until you’re done traveling. 

You may vow to “get back on track” after the holidays, or “start again on Monday.”
There is nothing magical about Monday, or January, or “after the holidays.”

Delaying your efforts to start developing more self-discipline around carbs is only making things harder for you a few weeks from now. 

Learning to say no to snacks and sweets (at least more often than not) is an essential skill to lose weight and get healthy. You can practice this skill, even over the holidays. In fact, now is a great time to practice because you’re likely getting out of your normal routine and environment.

Not snacking while traveling doesn’t have to be hard. This episode explains how to not snack while traveling, plus gives 4 more of my favorite healthy holiday travel tips. 


Highlights From This Episode

  • Join us for a new, FREE, live training, called How to Lower Insulin Resistance. 
  • Tip 1: Move your body everyday. 
  • Tip 2: Plan your travel food ahead of time. 
  • Healthy foods you can pack while traveling. 
  • Tip 3: Skip the snacks to keep insulin lower. 
  • Tip 4: Prioritize sleep to reduce hunger and carb cravings. 
  • Tips to improve your sleep while traveling. 
  • Why making your daily mindset work a priority is essential while traveling.

28 Dec 2022167. How to Get Back On Track With Weight Loss After the Holiday or Vacation00:16:51

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this episode, you'll learn 5 tips to get back on track emotionally after a holiday or vacation.

If you’ve got off track with your diet, exercise, or weight loss after the holiday or a vacation, don’t feel bad about yourself or shame yourself. Life happens! 

The key is to get back on track with your weight loss and health goals quickly when you get home.

But getting back on track with your diet or exercise can be hard if you’re not in a good headspace following the holidays.

Maybe, like me, you’ve experienced hurt feelings over the holidays. Maybe someone didn’t show up for you how you’d hoped, or something didn’t meet your expectations.

If you stay in this negative emotional state, it’s going to be really hard to motivate yourself to take positive action because all your energy is being drained out of you emotionally.

You cannot master your physical health or actions if you don’t first master your mental and emotional health.

So let’s stop any emotional hangover or emotional bleeding from the holidays right now.


Highlights From This Episode

  • How to get back on track (emotionally) after the holidays. 
  • Tip 1: View the situation as an opportunity, not a problem. 
  • Tip 2: Hold up the judgment mirror. 
  • Tip 3: Assume positive intent & give generous interpretation to the intentions, words, and actions of others. 
  • Tip 4: Move your body to get rid of the negative energy. 
  • Tip 5: Activate your parasympathetic (rest & digest) nervous system to get out of “stress mode.”

30 Dec 2022168. 8 Things to Stop DOING in 2023 to Lose More Weight00:15:21

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

You may think that losing weight in 2023 will be all about being more strict with your diet and exercise.

But have you considered that while eating clean is great, THINKING clean is even better? Many people struggle to lose the physical weight because they fail to recognize it as a SYMPTOM of mental weight.

You cannot lose your physical weight (for good) if you don’t first fix the thoughts that lead to the emotions that drive your eating and behaviors that control your weight.

Trying to lose the physical weight without also losing the mental weight is like driving with one foot on the gas and the other on the break. You’ll burn yourself out and feel like you’ve gotten nowhere.

Losing weight and getting healthy in 2023 is going to be a lot harder if you continue these 8 things you’ll learn in this episode


Highlights From This Episode

  • Stop going on a diet. Start having a diet. 
  • Stop trying to lose weight. Start creating your healthy lifestyle. 
  • Stop trying to do “all the things” to lose weight. 
  • Stop focusing on your “gap” and start focusing on your “gains.”
  • Stop expecting instant results. This leads to an unsustainable weight loss approach. 
  • Stop overcommitting and overscheduling yourself. Stop putting the wants of others above your own health. 
  • Stop talking mean to yourself. Your brain doesn’t do sarcasm. 
  • Stop making decisions for “current” you. Start making decisions for “future” you.

01 Jan 2023169. 6 Things to Stop SAYING to Lose More Weight in 202300:17:29

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

As you listen to this episode about 6 things to stop saying to lose more weight in 2023, ask yourself which ones you resonate with the most.

So often people know WHAT to do, but they fail to follow-through.

Time and again they brush it off as laziness, a lack of motivation, or a lack of willpower.

This couldn’t be further from the truth.

The fact is laziness and apathy are feelings, emotions, caused by thoughts. Your thoughts cause your emotions. Your emotions drive your actions. Your actions create your results.

Can you imagine how much more weight you could lose in 2023 if you knew the exact thoughts that were blocking you from losing weight?

After years of coaching women to lose weight, I noticed that there are some VERY common, yet often unrecognized sneaky thoughts that hold them back from losing weight and gaining health.

Once they broke this thought pattern, they were able to gain freedom from food, body comparison, apathy, and low motivation. 



Highlights From This Episode

  • Register for our new, FREE training called How to Lower Insulin Resistance. 
  • Why paying attention to your internal dialect is important for long-term weight loss. 
  • “I can’t.”
  • “I don’t know” and “I don’t have.”
  • “I should.” Should leads to shame. 
  • “When is this going to work?”
  • “But.” Stop justifying your own limitations. 
  • “I am.” You are what you say you are after you say, “I am.”

01 Feb 2023171. How Environmental Toxins Can Disrupt Your Thyroid & Adrenal Glands with Dr. Peter Kozlowski, MD01:06:53

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Have you ever felt like something just isn’t quite right but your doctor brushes off or belittles your concerns and says it’s not that bad or just a part of getting older?

You’re not alone. Traditional doctors are not trained in functional medicine which digs deeper and looks for the root cause of your symptoms.

In this week’s episode of the Reshape Your Health podcast, I interviewed Peter Kozlowski, MD, 2-time author of Unfunc Your Gut and Get the Func Out. He is a family medicine doctor who practices functional medicine for a diverse group of patients from children with autism to adults with dementia.

Today we focused on the link between environmental toxins and how they can build up overtime to disrupt your thyroid and adrenal glands. If you have Hashimotos, hypothyroid, chronic stress, or just love learning new information about how your body works, you’ll find this episode fascinating.

He also talks about why your mental, spiritual, and emotional health are even MORE important than environmental toxins for your hormone health. Yet more evidence that you can’t master your physical state without mastering your mental and emotional state.

Highlights From This Episode

  • Doc Koz’s main patients and their most common complaints.
  • Heavy metals and their significance in the body.
  • The liver and detoxification.
  • How to protect yourself from exposure to heavy metals and everyday toxins. 
  • What cookware is least toxic?
  • Heavy metals and osteoporosis.
  • Can Hasimotos be reversed?
  • Mental/emotional health and its importance.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Get your big fasting mimicking diet questions answered in this episode of the Reshape Your Health podcast featuring Joseph Antoun, MD, PhD.

The fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) is a low-calorie/low-protein but high-unsaturated-fat diet that has an effect on stress resistance/longevity-related markers similar to those caused by water-only fasting, but that minimizes the burden of prolonged fasting as it provides both macro- and micronutrients. 

Dr. Antoun is the CEO and Chairman of the Board of L-Nutra which includes brands like ProLon, Fast Bar, and Nutrition for Longevity. 

He completed his Health Policy studies at Harvard University, Public Health at Johns Hopkins University, Medicine and Biological Sciences at Saint Joseph University, and his PhD studies in Healthcare Systems at King's College. He was the head of health policy at the University of Chicago and the founder of The Journal of Health Systems & Reform.

08 Mar 2023176. 4 Systems To Be Consistent With Exercise (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)00:10:19

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

We’ve all been there…

Tempted to skip a workout we said we were going to do. The little angel on one shoulder encourages you to go. The lazy devil on the other shoulder says, “You can do it later.”

Who’s going to win? Are you going to flake on yourself, or not?

If you rely solely on your willpower or motivation, chances are you will not exercise regularly. Your brain is wired to be lazy. But we can use systems to combat our tendency to stay in our comfort zone and skip working out.

As James Clear says in Atomic Habits, “We do not rise to the level of our goals, we fall to the level of our systems.”

So what is your system for regular exercise? Do you even have one?

If you don’t have a system, and struggle with consistent exercise, this episode is for you.

In this quick weight loss mindset tip episode, you’ll learn 4 systems you can use to be more consistent with exercise.

15 Mar 2023177. Should You Give Up On Your Goal? (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)00:10:35

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

This weight loss mindset tip episode was spurred from a post on James Clear’s instagram account.

It said:

“It doesn’t make sense to continue wanting something if you aren’t willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don’t want to live the lifestyle, release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process, is to guarantee disappointment.”

Have you ever felt like you’ve worked so hard for so long to reach a goal, and still aren’t where you want to be?

Maybe you’ve started to second-guess if you really have what it takes.

Maybe you’re wondering if you actually have the mental and emotional bandwidth to give what you think it will take to reach your goal.

Have you felt self-conscious or embarrassed that you ever set such a goal in the first place?

The real question is…

Do you need to give up?

Or do you pivot?

That’s what we’re talking about in this quick weight loss mindset tip episode.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this quick tip weight loss mindset episode, you’ll learn 4 ways to fortify your frequency and guard your emotional energy so you can use your time, energy, and attention on things you actually want to be doing.

Have you ever felt like your day was going great and then,

💥BAM, all of a sudden you get pulled into someone else’s negativity?

Maybe it was an unexpected email or phone call.

Perhaps someone said something that hurt your feelings and now you can’t stop thinking about it,

…wondering if this was somehow your fault.

Are you an emotional doormat for someone to spew their problems on as they vent?

All of this negative energy takes a toll.

If you’re not careful with your attention, focus, and energy, it’s easy to get emotionally hijacked.

This leads to less mental and emotional capacity to follow-through on your health and wellness goals.

It can manifest as exhaustion, difficulty sleeping, and low motivation that can last weeks or months at a time.

People often call this, “Getting off track” but don’t attribute it to a lack of boundaries in their own life.

Learn how to create stronger emotional boundaries in this episode.

05 Apr 2023179. THIS Will Help Reduce Emotional Eating (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)00:07:48

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Years ago I interviewed an emotional eating expert for the podcast.

I still remember being so surprised that the #1 personality trait of an emotional eater was…

✖️Not perfectionism.

✖️Not being a control freak.

✅ Being a people pleaser.

Time and again in my own life and coaching experience with Zivli members, this rings true.

Often someone inadvertently ties their self-worth to the approval of others. So they go about trying to please everyone to feel better about themselves.

This can be a very slippery slope.

If we say yes to make other people happy, at the expense of our own time to recharge and make ourselves happy…what’s the result???

Emotional fatigue and a frustration at a lack of time to do what’s important to us.

And what’s a quick fix to make us feel better…

Food. 🍩🍦🍨

Usually something that is sweet or salty because those refined carbs stimulate our dopamine receptors in our brains to help us feel better.

This episode is an insightful discussion on how to stop letting the opinions (or more often perceived opinions) of others control your behavior.

This is a very important weight loss skill to develop if you want to become fully aware of, and in control of, your thoughts.

12 Apr 2023180. Limiting Weight Loss Thought Alert (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)00:10:32

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this quick tip weight loss mindset episode, you’ll learn the importance of “I am” statements.

While coaching Zivli members, I noticed a theme…

“I am” statements.

“I’m stressed.” “I’m overwhelmed.” “I’m bored.” “I’m tired.” 😔

In reality…they weren’t those things.

💡They were feeling those things…and that is an important distinction.

If you don’t like how you’re feeling, you can choose a different thought that will make you feel better. 👍

The only thing we have control over in this life is how we choose to think.

What you don’t have control over are the subsequent emotions, actions, and results those thoughts create.

You create your world with your words. 💯

It’s so important to recognize that you are what you say you are after you say I am.

“I am” is an identity statement. Your brain pays attention to it and assumes it’s true.

Your brain doesn’t know if the words you tell yourself are true or false, it just hears your internal dialect, and goes about looking for ways to create that reality.

If you’re intentional to choose your “I am” statements wisely, you can shape your emotions and actions.

👉 If you don’t take responsibility for your results, you are abdicating your power to change them.

The most effective way to take responsibility for your results is to take responsibility for the thoughts that created them.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

If you have a weight loss or health goal you’re trying to reach and are struggling with impatience…this podcast is for you! 🙌

A very common roadblock people face when pursuing any goal is impatience. You’ve probably heard that quote good is the enemy of great. We think impatience is the enemy of great.

You can’t buy patience. You can’t shortcut its development. You only get patience through experience. It takes time, but developing patience is a critical skill if you want to lose weight and keep it off.

The other skill is practice. The definition of practice is the actual application or use of an idea, belief, or method, as opposed to theories relating to it.

Translation - doing the work.

Practice + patience = proficiency.

If you’re missing one of these 2 key ingredients, you will not be successful in reaching your health goals. Listen to this podcast  learn more about this equation for weight loss success, and how to apply it in your own health journey.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

One common mistake I see when people are losing weight or improving their health is…

inadvertently raising their stress by using the word “need.”

How many times a day do you have thoughts like…

“I need to go to the gym” or “I need to meal prep.”

You don’t actually need to do anything.

In fact, using the word need is counterproductive to your weight loss and health goals.

👉You don’t need the word need. 👈

The word need, along with should, and have to, are three things that cause stress in your mind.

Stress raises cortisol, cortisol raises insulin, and increased insulin makes weight loss hard. 🤦‍♀️

Just another example of sneaky limiting thoughts.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Losing weight can be tough…

People see someone thin and often assume they know nothing about what it's like to lose weight.

And that’s just not always the case.

You don’t know what anyone has really been through.

Looks can be deceiving. You can’t judge a book by its cover. 📚

Everyone’s weight loss journey and challenges are different.

While I’m 140 pounds today, I wasn’t always.

In my life, I’ve actually lost 85 pounds.

This episode is covering a little mindset tip that helped me along the way.

(Important! 👇)

Signs that you’re not employing this tip include getting burnt-out on weight loss, experiencing a lack of motivation and follow-through, and struggling with frequent “start/stops.”

17 May 2023185. Detaching Your Self-Worth & Self-Esteem from the Scale (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)00:21:46

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In today's weight loss mindset tip episode, we're talking about detaching your self-worth from the number on the scale. 

Anyone who’s ever tried to lose weight has probably experienced attachment to their weight and a strong desire to see their hard work paying off on the scale.

You wait for a “good day,” go to the bathroom, strip down to nothing, adjust your weight side to side on the scale all in hopes that you’ll see the lowest possible number.

Sound familiar?

But what you may not recognize is that mental attachment to a number on the scale is actually counterproductive to long-term weight loss.

This attachment could look like feeling really discouraged after stepping on the scale and not seeing any downward progress.

It could look like seeing no change on the scale, and feeling frustrated because you're doing everything in your power to lose weight and nothing is happening.

In fact, sometimes you gain a pound or two from last week and you think…

“What’s the point? Why am I doing this anyway?”

Attachment can also manifest as behavior change when you do lose weight.

For example, seeing a lower number and then overeating that day or weekend.

If any of that resonates with you, you’ll love this episode. Inside, I share a quick and simple way to start detaching your self-worth, or self-esteem, from the number on the scale.

31 May 2023187. The Most Common Emotional Eating Mistakes and How to Avoid Them (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)00:16:47

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this weight loss mindset tip episode, you’ll learn the most common emotional eating mistake and how to fix it.

If you find yourself digging through the fridge even though you just had dinner, or going to the break room to find a snack just because you're bored or stressed at work, this episode is for you.

One important thing to recognize is that this is not a quick fix.

There are so many things that you can do to help with emotional eating. And if you're an action taker, you're probably already trying some of them.

You can drink more water, eat more protein, eat more fiber, sleep more, reduce your stress, and choose tea instead of sweets in the afternoon or after dinner.

While all of those things are beneficial, they still overlook the most important thing that you can do to reduce your emotional eating.

This one thing is absolutely free, but it does require your attention and focus. It's an exercise that I'm going to take you through in this video.

And if you don't do this mindset work, all of the strategies that I just mentioned about improving how you eat and sleep and de-stress will not be as effective.

14 Jun 2023189. 5 Summer Weight Loss Pitfalls & How to Sidestep Them (Weight Loss Mindset Tip)00:14:46

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this episode you’ll learn the most common summer weight loss pitfalls and how to sidestep them.

If you're trying to lose weight over the summer so that you feel more comfortable in your clothes or bathing suit, this episode is for you.

Anyone who has lost weight knows that structure is important. Having processes, or systems is important.

But during the summer, things tend to be a little bit more flexible. You might be going on vacation, you might be going to a friend's house, you might be hosting barbecues.

Your environment changes which means your plan also needs to change.

If you don't change your plan over the summer, then you are risking regaining some of the weight that you worked so hard to lose.

You're also not capitalizing on the opportunity to develop flexibility and problem solving skills.

Summer is a great time to identify new emotional eating cues that aren’t around in the Winter, Spring, or Fall.

Summer is going to come around next year too so you might as well learn how to deal with some of these weight loss pitfalls now so that you don't have to deal with them again in the future.

21 Jun 2023190. How to Sleep Better - Part 1 With Valerie Cacho, MD00:50:51

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Anyone who has struggled with insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, trouble staying asleep, or waking up too early knows how a bad night of sleep can make everything harder.

Good sleep is essential for good physical, mental, and emotional health.

One of the biggest barriers to losing weight in midlife and after menopause is poor sleep. Chronically bad sleep raises cortisol, which raises glucose, which raises insulin. This drives fat storage, not fat burning.

In light of this, we wanted to bring on a sleep expert to discuss frequently asked questions about sleep.

Valerie Cacho, MD, is an integrative sleep medicine specialist. Her interests and expertise include: diagnosing and treating medical sleep disorders, women's sleep concerns, mind-body approaches to insomnia, self-compassion training, clinical hypnotherapy, and promoting sleep health and wellness.

She is the president and founder of Sleep Life Med, a tele-sleep practice in Hawaii and California. Additionally, Dr. Cacho is the CEO of Sleephoria, a wellness brand founded on the belief that a well-rested woman has the energy, clarity, and drive to change the world.

28 Jun 2023191. Low Calorie Versus Low Insulin for Weight Loss - Which Works Better00:18:23

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this episode, you’ll learn 4 differences between low-calorie eating and low-insulin eating for losing weight, and more importantly, keeping it off.

Why is this conversation important?

We believe a lot of the frustration and feelings of failure that are commonly associated with weight loss can be mitigated through a low insulin approach.

So many come to us after being trapped in the weight regain rollercoaster.

This looks like unintentionally gaining weight, gaining motivation to get it off, doing some sort of short-term diet to lose the weight, regaining weight, feeling like a failure, then starting the cycle all over again once you regain your motivation to change.

How you go about losing weight - whether the low calorie or low insulin approach, will determine three things.

First - the type of body weight you lose. In other words, are you losing fat or muscle mass?

Second - how likely the weight is to stay off due to your new body composition.

Third - your weight loss experience in general. I.e. Are you miserable, cold, tired and hungry? Or satisfied and energetic?

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

In this episode, you’ll learn 6 science-backed tips to lose body fat and gain muscle.

This is an important conversation because if you’re trying to lose weight but aren’t doing these 6 things, you’ll accidentally lose more muscle mass.

This loss of muscle mass makes the weight you do lose harder to keep off due to a slower metabolic rate. Then all the work, money, and energy you put into losing weight will have been in vain.

And you'll be stuck on the weight regain rollercoaster yet again.

We want you to stop going on a diet, and start having a diet. One that helps you achieve and maintain a healthy weight, body fat level, and muscle mass.

Then you can just continue to live that lifestyle instead of starting and stopping diets. Be sure to stay through all 5 tips because I’m sharing a bonus one at the end.

And if you don’t follow this bonus tip, all the other tips will be far less effective - if they work at all.

26 Jul 2023194. 3 Types of Weight Loss Plateaus Explained & How to Break Them00:15:12

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Being at a weight loss plateau can feel very frustrating, especially when you feel like you’re doing everything in your power to get the scale to go down and it’s not budging.

While we don’t want you to give the scale any of our emotional power, we do understand that you want to see some progress.

Remember the scale is only one indicator of progress. Also consider your energy levels, how you’re sleeping, how your clothes are fitting, and just celebrating the little consistent things you are doing for your health.

All that being said, there are three types of weight loss plateaus that we’ll explain today. Once you understand the type of plateau you’re experiencing, you can tailor your strategy appropriately.

Weight loss plateaus are completely normal on your weight loss journey. If you anticipate the stalls, they won’t be as discouraging.

Just like any other facet of medicine, you can only improve a condition if you have the correct diagnosis. A great example of this is treating low back pain.

If you don’t get to the root of the problem, you can spend months of time and money on physical therapy sessions, chiropractor appointments, or medications that don’t make much of a difference.

In the case of a weight loss stall, if your strategies don’t match the type of plateau you have, you’ll face similar frustration. 

There are three types - circumstantial, mental, or physical. Listen to this episode to learn more about how to break them.

30 Aug 2023198. Losing 50 Pounds Over Age 50 With Zivli Member, Tracy00:29:59

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

One of our favorite things to do is hear about Zivli member wins and success stories. When we hear of a great win in the community or Office Hours, we often reach out and ask that person if they’d be willing to share their story with our broader YouTube/Podcast community.

We always love hearing more of their backstory and details. What made them successful in reaching their goals? What did they do differently than before? What is their thought process like? What’s their daily routine?

This week we're honored to share an interview with Tracy.

Aside from looking and feeling amazing, Tracy also saw these results after she joined Zivli and put into practice what we teach:

✅ No more joint pain 🙌
✅ Lower blood pressure so I don’t have to take BP medication
✅ Lower cholesterol so I don’t have to take statin medication
✅ Not to have diabetes
✅ To get to a healthy weight (150 pounds for her)
✅ To be more active with my grandchildren
✅ Not to shy away from mirrors
✅ Fit into cute clothes

She dropped 3 clothing sizes and is no longer on any prescription medication. She’s more active with her grandkids and was proud of how she looked in her new swimsuit on her Jamaican vacation with her husband.

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

It’s never too late to lose weight and get healthy! Whether you’re in your 50s, 60s, 70s, or beyond, it’s possible for you to lose weight and transform your health.

We can’t wait to introduce you to today’s podcast guest! She’s the sweetest woman with a charming Southern accent you could listen to all day long.

Her name is Beth and she had tried 10+ diets before joining Zivli. At almost 70 years old (although you’d NEVER believe it when you see her), she was finally able to lose the stubborn weight and keep it off with our low-insulin lifestyle approach.

Beth's primary goal was to enter her next decade as physically, emotionally, and spiritually healthy as she could be.

Through our Zivli program, she was able to lose 20 pounds AND keep it off for a year now. She's strong, healthy, and active. 💪

She's gone from a size 14 to a size 4, and is no longer shy to be in pictures. 💃 Just a few months after her hip replacement surgery, she was able to run up steps on vacation!

13 Sep 2023200. Osteoporosis, Fracture, & Fall Prevention With Patrick Donovan, PT, DPT00:52:10

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

According to the CDC, 51.5% of women over 50 have low bone mass. This statistic blew our mind! Without proper treatment, this can develop into osteoporosis and greatly impact your fracture risk, mobility, and quality of life.

Unless you get a DEXA scan, it’s hard to know if you have low bone mass. Maintaining your strength and balance can be the difference between living independently or in an assisted living facility…or between an assisted living facility and long-term care.

So those who want to maintain their mobility and independence as long as possible need to be vigilant about lifestyle choices that promote good bone health.

Join us for this informative interview about how to prevent and treat low bone mass to reduce your risk of fractures and osteoporosis with Patrick Donovan, PT, DPT who works in geriatric outpatient orthopedics in Denver, Colorado.

20 Sep 2023201. How to Improve SELF-Control & Reach Your Goals With Tracy Pleschourt00:56:25

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

One common barrier we hear to people achieving their health and weight loss goals is a lack of self-control or self-discipline.

We believe self-control is a short-term strategy, not a long-term one. You’re more likely to reach your goals if you have a strong “why” and systems set-up for your success.

But you will always need self-control in the little moments of decision during the day that put you on the trajectory to make better, or worse, subsequent choices for the rest of the day.

Tracy Pleschourt, the Founder of Self-Made U and the Host of Secrets of the Self-Made Podcast helps men and women achieve their goals and solve all problems FAST by developing SELF-control.

Join this interview today to learn how she developed this operating system to improve her own self-control to stop overeating and overdrinking.

04 Oct 2023203. Breast Cancer Survivor & Plastic Surgeon Anne Peled, MD on Breast Cancer Prevention & Treatment00:39:52

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Dr. Anne Peled, MD is a surgeon, an educator, a researcher, a mother, an athlete, and a breast cancer survivor. Just a few years into starting her own thriving breast cancer and plastic surgery practice, she was diagnosed with breast cancer herself, which gives her the unusual perspective of both the expert and the patient.

With her husband Ziv Peled, MD, also a board-certified plastic surgeon, she is currently pioneering an entirely new way of treating breast cancer with a combined mastectomy and reconstruction technique that preserves the nipple, the skin, and the sensation, with manageable recovery and hospital time.

She started researching this method of surgery when she herself was faced with the decision about what treatment to have for breast cancer, and there was no option like this available to her at that time. Her goal is for women to come out of her care feeling stronger than they ever have been, and it is this holistic approach to healthcare that is the underpinning to her practice and her teaching.

We hope you enjoy this episode and share it with someone you know who may benefit from knowing this kind of procedure is an option if they are facing breast cancer.

Highlights From This Episode

  • Dr. Peled’s story on her experience with breast cancer.
  • Dr. Peled’s story on her and his husband’s “sensation preserving mastectomy.”
  • How to prevent breast cancer/how to reduce risk for breast cancer.
  • Nutrition tips that reduce breast cancer risk. 
  • How to identify if you are in the high risk category for breast cancer.
  • Insulin resistance and breast cancer risk.
  • Breast cancer treatment.
  • Breast cancer recovery, side effects of the treatment.
  • Post surgical tips.

01 Nov 2023207. Thyroid Health & Weight Loss - What You Need to Know With Megan Lyons00:59:03

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Have you ever blamed your low thyroid for your weight loss struggles? If so, you’re not alone! The thyroid is a common scapegoat for weight issues.

What many people don’t realize is that their lifestyle choices are the primary determinant of thyroid health.

Things like diet, exercise, sleep, stress, and toxins all play a role in how well your thyroid functions. Just taking medication to correct your hormone levels will likely not be enough to get you the health and weight loss results you want.

08 Nov 2023208. A Better Way to Monitor Blood Pressure With Jay Shah, MD00:41:56

Did you know high blood pressure usually has no symptoms? According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about half of adults have high blood pressure, defined as a systolic (top) blood pressure greater than 130 mmHg or a diastolic (bottom) blood pressure greater than 80 mmHg, or are taking medication for high blood pressure.

What’s more concerning, is only about 1 in 4 adults with high blood pressure have it under control. Having high blood pressure increases your risk of heart attack and stroke. And it’s estimated that in the United States alone, $131 billion is spent on the condition each year.

On today’s episode, you’ll hear from Jay Shah, MD. He is an expert cardiologist, having practiced at Massachusetts General Hospital and the Mayo Clinic, and now is Chief Medical Officer for Aktiia.

He believes the time has come in medicine for individuals to understand and optimize their own health. This includes a better understanding of your blood pressure, and not relying on a sole reading at the doctor’s office to say “You have high blood pressure, take this medication.”

In this interview, he talks about a better way to measure high blood pressure - continuously and automatically. Similar to a continuous glucose monitor but for blood pressure. For the right person, this technology can be life-saving.

Highlights From This Episode: 

  • Prevalence of high blood pressure.
  • Importance of proper medication dosing.
  • What is Aktiia and how to use it properly.
  • Why a continuous blood pressure device increases the Hawthorne effect and behavior change. 
  • Lifestyle changes to lower blood pressure.
