About this episode

🎙️ Welcome (back) to Fuel Her Awesome! After a year of shifts—new formats, name changes, and schedule tweaks—we’re coming home. This space is all about empowering women to fuel their bodies with confidence, freedom, and joy—and that’s exactly what’s ahead!

Today’s Episode: Recalibrating Your Health Goals

With all the noise—from social media trends to Ozempic—it’s time to tune into YOUR body. And the best place to start? Biofeedback.

What is Biofeedback?

Your body constantly gives signals—hunger, energy, digestion, sleep, mood, cravings. Learning to listen helps you ditch diet rules and eat in a way that works for you.

Want to go deeper? In my practice, we now offer: ✅ Food Sensitivity Testing ✅ GI Mapping ✅ Vitamin D & Nutrition Blood Work ✅ DUTCH Hormone Testing ✅ Hair Mineral Analysis

Book an intake session to find the best option for you!

The Science Behind Listening to Your Body

Studies confirm that intuitive eating improves long-term health, metabolism, and body weight regulation. Heart rate variability (HRV) research also shows that adjusting nutrition based on stress levels supports recovery and well-being.

The takeaway? Sustainable nutrition starts with connection—not control.

Your Biofeedback Check-In

Pause—are you hungry right now? What are the physical signs? How do they change over time? This is step one in learning to trust your body again. Try setting a goal based on hunger cues, meal timing, or portion sizes this week!

Let’s Keep the Conversation Going!
