  • 5 Underrated Causes of Bloating

    5 Underrated Causes of Bloating

    · Embrace Your Real

    Bloating is the worst. It’s uncomfortable, frustrating, and can make you feel like everything you’re doing is wrong—even when you’re eating well and working out. But here’s the thing: bloating isn’t random. Your body is always communicating with you, and if you take the time to listen, you can figure out why it’s happening and what to do about it.

    That’s why in this episode of Embrace Your Real, Alright, I’m going to share the top five sneaky reasons you’re bloated and what you can do to fix it. Are you ready?! Let’s get it, let’s go


    What I discuss:

    If you’re feeling bloated, take a step back and ask yourself:

    Am I eating enough carbs?

    Am I overexercising?

    Am I eating foods my body doesn’t like?

    Am I super stressed?

    Am I drinking enough water?

    Your body is always talking to you—it’s just a matter of listening! Instead of getting frustrated with bloating, use it as a sign to check in with yourself and make small changes.

    Exercise Snacks: What They Are + Why You Should Use Them

    · Embrace Your Real

    You know I’m all about keeping fitness realistic and attainable—because life can get busy, right? Sometimes it feels impossible to block out 45 solid minutes for a workout. But guess what? You don’t have to!

    Today, we’re diving into the power of exercise snacks. These bite-sized bursts of movement can fit into your busiest days and still give you amazing results. If you’re ready to learn how a little movement here and there can transform your body, your mood, and your life, this episode is for you!

    What I discuss:

    Exercise snacks are short bursts of movement, 5 to 10 minutes at a time, spread throughout your day.

    These mini sessions keep your metabolism active, burning more calories and preventing energy crashes from long periods of sitting.

    Moving even briefly after meals helps stabilize blood sugar, preventing sharp spikes and crashes that lead to hunger and fat storage.

    Frequent movement improves focus and reduces brain fog, helping you stay productive without feeling drained.

    Endorphin boosts from exercise snacks lift your mood and lower stress throughout the day, instead of relying on a single long workout.

    Taking 10 minutes to move your body every hour can add up to a full workout at the end of the day.

    It’s all about consistency, not perfection—every bit of movement counts toward feeling stronger, more energized, and confident in your body.

  • The #1 Weight Loss Myth We Need to UNALIVE

    The #1 Weight Loss Myth We Need to UNALIVE

    · Embrace Your Real

    We’ve been conditioned to think that weight loss is the goal. That if we just see the number on the scale go down, we’ll magically get the lean, toned body we want. But that’s not how it works.

    Weight loss and body composition are not the same thing. Losing weight just means losing weight. It doesn’t tell you if that weight is coming from fat or muscle, and it definitely doesn’t guarantee you’ll look or feel the way you want.

    So today, I’m breaking down one of the biggest weight loss myths that we need to UNALIVE. Yes, we need this myth to disappear because it is holding you back! So let’s bust these once and for all so you can focus on what actually works and finally build the body you want.

    What I discuss:

    Fat loss is NOT about eating as little as possible and working out more.

    A small, sustainable calorie deficit works better than an extreme cut.

    our workouts stay the same—3-5 strength training sessions per week is all you need.

    You should NEVER live in fat loss mode. Cycle in and out for long-term results.

    Reverse dieting is essential to keep your metabolism strong.

  • 8 Awards You’re Chasing That Don’t Actually Exist

    8 Awards You’re Chasing That Don’t Actually Exist

    · Embrace Your Real

    Okay, let’s talk about those “awards” we’re chasing—the ones that don’t exist but somehow control so much of what we do, how we feel, and how we show up in life.

    Let me give you a few examples. Ever caught yourself secretly competing for the:

    “No mistakes were made” award?

    Or the “Most beautiful” award?

    How about “Skinniest”?

    “Lived up to all expectations”?

    “Never said no”?

    “Never asked for help”?

    Oh, and let’s not forget the big one: “Liked by everyone.”

    And last but not least, the “Didn’t need rest” award.

    Are you cringing yet? Because SAME. The crazy part is, none of these awards are real. Literally none of these exist. No one is handing us trophies for being exhausted, perfect, or never making mistakes – but still, we’re running ourselves into the ground trying to win them.

    So, today, we’re unpacking why we’re chasing these invisible awards, how they’re stealing our joy, and what we can do to let go of the pressure and just be.

    80% of People Fail Their New Year's Resolutions in the First Month: Here’s What to Do About It…

    · Embrace Your Real

    It’s the first week of February and it’s time for us to take a look at those new years resolutions. Did you know 80% of people fail to stick with their new year’s resolutions within the first month? That’s why we need to talk about this!

    If you're feeling like you already fell off track with your goals for 2025
 first of all, take a deep breath. You are NOT alone. And second—let’s reframe this, because falling off track doesn’t mean failure.

    If you’re thinking, Ugh, I blew it. I’ll try again next year, I need you to stop right there. Your goals don’t have an expiration date, and just because you lost momentum doesn’t mean you have to quit. And that’s why in today’s episode of Embrace Your Real, I want to share five powerful mindset shifts that will help you shake off the guilt, get back on track, and move forward with confidence.

    What I discuss:

    1. Falling Off Track is Normal—Stop Making It Mean Something About You

    2. Focus on Progress, Not Perfection

    3. Reevaluate what’s realistic For You


    4. Make It Stupidly Simple

    The Do’s and Don’ts of Nourishing Your Body Postpartum

    · Embrace Your Real

    Hey, Mama! First of all, let me say this: you are incredible. Your body just created a whole human being! Whether it’s your first baby or your fourth, you’re in a season of big changes—physically, emotionally, and mentally.

    And while it might feel tempting to dive into the whole “bounce back” culture, I’m here to remind you that your body deserves so much more than that. This is your time to heal, replenish, and thrive. So let’s talk about how you can use nutrition to feel your best during this postpartum chapter!

    What I discuss:

    Don’t even think about dieting.

    Also, don’t put pressure on yourself to count your macros

    Use this time of life to eat intuitively — your body needs a lot so don’t hold back from giving it what it’s asking for.

    If you do count one macro, let it be protein.

    Try to build all your means around protein, aiming to get 20-30g per meal to keep you more energized and satiated.

    After protein, fill your diet with lots of health fats and fiber.

    Make sure you’re incorporating iron and vitamin-c rich foods into your daily food intake.

    7 MORE End of Year Reminders I Needed to Hear (And You Probably Do, Too!)

    · Embrace Your Real

    As we wrap up the year, I wanted to sit down and have a heart-to-heart about the lessons that have hit me the hardest this season. From postpartum changes to navigating life’s chaos, I’ve been learning (and re-learning) what it means to give myself grace.

    This episode is a reflection of the seven reminders I’ve needed to hear lately—and I have a feeling you might need them too.

    What’s Discussed:

    Your body is incredible—just as it is. Consistency beats perfection. You don’t have to have it all figured out. Your goals don’t expire on December 31st. You’re doing better than you think. Growth doesn’t always feel good. Healing isn’t linear and doesn’t have a deadline. If you loved this episode, you’ll also love

In today’s episode, I’m sharing seven heartfelt reminders I needed to hear as we wrap up the year—and I have a feeling you might need to hear them, too.
