A Root Cause Approach to Acne - How Your High Performance Mindset Might be Hurting Your Skin | with Katie Stewart and Emily Duncan
Acne is one of the most mentally taxing physical struggles out there. We're talking about your face . The thing everyone sees when they, well, see you. Today's guest, Katie Stewart, knows all about this. Katie started developing adult acne from coming off of birth control while she was smack dab in the middle of a film + tv career. Yeah, not ideal. Being on camera all day while feeling insecure about her skin, Katie decided to take matters into her own hands and heal herself from the inside out. Now, Katie is leading a movement - using functional health testing + nutrition to help her clients heal acne from the inside out. On today's show, we're diving into all things skin from the holistic and functional lens, with a special emphasis on the unique challenges high-performing (and therefore... high stress) women face when it comes to skin health and acne.

What Being an "Influencer" Taught Me About Branding | with host Emily Duncan
Too many people shit on "influencers" without realizing they have some really solid lessons they can teach us about business and branding.

Embodying Loving Leadership and Creating Healthy Work Culture | with Joe Sheehey and Emily Duncan

The Business of Becoming: Radical Authenticity and Embracing Identity Shifts | with Nick Komodina and Emily Duncan
So you’re getting the nudges that you’re meant for more, for different, and yet… you’re scared as shit. You’re scared of being cancelled, you’re scared of the pressure that comes with more visibility, you’re scared of what it might mean to actually… become someone new and different. Today we’re talking with one of my long-time friends and fellow business mentor, Nick Komodina. Nick is no stranger to identity shifts - after scaling a fitness coaching company to 7 figures, he left the fitness industry behind and began working as a business mentor with a heavy emphasis on energetics, spirituality, and deep inner growth. It hasn’t been a “bump free” journey, if you will, and Nick provides insight on everything from starting a new business, to getting “cancelled,” to embracing full authenticity and your “most unhinged self” as your ultimate path to growth and success. If you’re on the cusp of a new timeline, this episode is 100% for y-o-u. Follow Nick on IG Apply for my 1:1 mentorship here.

Why You NEED A Solid Brand in the Online Coaching Space | with host Emily Duncan
This one's for all my online (or aspiring) entrepreneurs. My fitness coaches, online therapists, somatic babes, energy workers... there's a solid chance, especially in the fitness space, that the mentor you paid thousands of dollars taught you next to nothing about branding. Sad part is... all of the "business" stuff they taught you works WAY better when you build it on TOP of a solid brand. In this episode, I'm diving deep on why branding is essential and foundational to not just product based business, but online services/businesses as well. AND how even the "superficial" stuff like colors and fonts and "vibes" serves a functional purpose that helps you do the thing you want to do - the work you love (without hating it and wanting to burn it down in 3 years).

Why Beliefs Become Things and How to Start Unpacking the Limiting Beliefs that Keep You Stuck | with host Emily Duncan
There's this old phrase that "thoughts become things." And I don't think that's fully true. I think beliefs become things, largely because our actions are heavily influenced by what we believe.

Finding Resilience During Your Darkest Nights of the Soul, Embracing the Lessons of Our Past Selves, and Showing Up When Life Strips You Down | with Chase Chewning and Emily Duncan
Trigger warning: in today's episode, we're having a powerful discussion around men's mental health, including conversations around suicide + suicidal thoughts, anxiety + panic attacks, and the depths of the dark nights of the soul. Today we're joined by Chase Chewning of Ever Forward Radio , a repeat and continually powerful guest on the show. This past year, Chase has been presented with the challenge of a lifetime - after finally healing from the PTSD of his father's death almost 2 decades ago, Chase was faced with a new challenge: navigating the lowest mental health period he's ever experienced, including debilitating panic attacks. To top it off, this mental health crisis hit him during a period of massive business growth. Today's show is a story not just of resilience, ubt extreme, unfiltered vulnerability of what it means to truly embrace yourself even and especially in your darkest times, the importance of conversations around men's mental health, what it means to "lock it up" so you can do what needs to be done in the moment without being overcome by your feelings, letting past versions of yourself heal and serve you, and how to keep showing up for yourself, your work, and your family even and especially on your worst days. Thank you to Chase for coming fully openly, authentically, and vulnerably to help facillitate one of the most powerful episodes in EMBody Radio history.

I was scared that rebranding so "late" in the game might hurt our brand recognition, but not only did it absolutely not do that, but shifiting from being a business to being a true brand, and emphasizing what I now refer to as the "Brand Big 3" - Values, Vision, and Vibes, we attracting a stronger ideal client base and community, have more cohesion in every level of the business (from internal operations to client relations), and have consistently been able to sign higher-paying clients that are also dream matches for our coaches. This episode is for all of my creative entrepreneurs out there that feel like the things you're doing, like sending more DMs or doing more cold outreach or trying paid ads just aren't... doing it, and you want more from your brand - your content, your clients, everything. I can confidently say this - branding is the foundation of getting people to care about who you are and what you do. Everything else is secondary. Want to hone in on YOUR branding so you can feel more creative and inspired, LOVE your instagram feed, and attract your dream clients? Then my branding program, Rooted , is 100% for you.

Cellular Fragility Syndrome - The Essential Nutrient You Didn't Know You Needed | with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson and Emily Duncan
You've probably heard of essential fatty acids like EPA and DHA, or omega-3s, and how important they are. But did you know there's a 3rd essential fatty acid that's also a saturated fatty acid? You know, the ones you've been taught to avoid by the mainstream media for... more than a couple years. Turns out, there's an essential saturated fatty acid that dolphins helped discover (yes, dolphins), and not consuming enough of this essential fatty acid unearthed the first recognized "new" deficiency syndrome in over 75 years. Today we're talking with veterinary epidimiologist Dr. Stephaine Venn-Watson about the revolutionary discovery of C15:0, an essential fatty acid, that's turned the health + wellness industry on its head. We discuss everything from C15:0 deficiency, or Cellular Fragility Syndrome, the importance of healthy levels of C15:0, and all the amazing "above baseline" benefits that happen for performance, recovery, longevity, and more, when we're optimizing C15:0 levels.

Re-Defining Your Standards for Personal Excellence - Your Go-To Guide for Reclaiming Your Standards to Get What You Truly Want From Life| with Host Emily Duncan
I firmly believe that even the most devoted and resolute of us go through times + experiences where we stray from our authenticity AND our personal standards.

In today's show, I'm setting the groundwork for how you can start the work of re-establishing what your personal standards for excellence are so you can get everything you want out of life... because you don't get your goals, you get your standards.

How to Deal When You've Disappointed Yourself: the High Performer's Guide to Messing Up | with host Emily Duncan
Hello my dear high performance human... question for you: what do you do when you've found yourself in a spot where you're disappointed in your own self? Where you've let yourself down, not lived up to your own standards of being, and otherwise not shown up as the person you want to be? There's a good chance you find yourself neck deep in a shame/guilt spiral that has you silencing yourself and, over time, playing even smaller and showing up even less. I know this because I am you, I've been there/done that/got the t-shirt, and have a couple of thoughts on how we can show up in our disappointment with ourselves and taking both radical accountability and compassionate steps forward and get back on track to being exactly who we know we can be.

Our Obsession with Our Suffering and How to Face the Fear and Step Into Your Greatness | with Lauren Russell and Emily Duncan
Have you ever noticed these not-so-lovely cycles and patterns keep repeating themselves? And how these things you "don't want" somehow keep showing up in your life? Have you ever thought that you may have developed some attachments to your pain? These repeat experiences are potentially rooted in the comfort of familiarity along with our fear of the unknown. Your Highest Self is literally a HUGE unknown since you've never fully been that before. Unknowns, no matter the promise they hold, are scary AF to our egos. So, how do you make your obsession with suffering conscious, free it, and start to face your fears so you can start becoming the next best version of you? In case you haven't figured it out, this episode is going over allllllll of that.

Fat Transfer to the Breast: Surgery, Recovery, Expectations, an Alternative to Implants?, and the Mind F*ck of This Surgery | with host Emily Duncan
March 13, 2024, I had fat transfer to the breast and I had SO many questions on the procedure, rightfully so. For every question, I had even more answers and things to talk about.

Let's Catch Up: Career Struggles, Taylor Swift, and Plastic Surgery | with host Emily Duncan
Today... today we are here for what is hopefully at least ~semi~ organized chaos. I wanted to have a space today to just be a human having their experience in life, and share that with you guys. I know it's really easy to see people's lives on the internet and think they never struggle or have frustrating moments, so today we're challenging that narrative. We're also talking about Taylor Swift (from someone who's not a Swiftie), and getting fat transfer surgery to my tatas. We're a little all over the place today, and we love that for us.

You've seen all the content about cycle syncing and how you "shouldn't train hard during your luteal phase" floating around the internet. I'm sure of it. We're back with another coaches' round table today to talk about why you DON'T need to cycle sync, proven things you can do to help improve your menstrual cycle, and the potential reasoning behind why so many people see weight loss when they switch from high intensity training to low impact workouts like pilates and walking.

Perfectionism and How It Stands in the Way of Your Fitness and Health Progress | with host Emily Duncan
There's a good chance if you listen to this show, you struggle with some degree of perfectionism or perfectionistic thinking. You're really type A; if things aren't done perfectly, they feel like they don't matter; you hyperfocus on/obsess over things like your weight and your fat loss progress, you use phrases like "getting back on track" and "I fell off the wagon;" you’ve spent some amount of time being really strict with your health and fitness, whether that’s through macros, “clean” eating, rigid diets like carnivore or keto or doing things like 75 hard… and after a period of time, that completely blows up in your face, you get burnt out, and you quit doing anything; and lots more. This episode is for you if you want to get better at identifying those traits, understand how they can be problematic, and develop solid strategies on how to shift towards more productive mindsets and habits.

Why Insulin Isn't Your Enemy, Why You Shouldn't DO 75 Hard, and Other Fitness Myths Busted | with Emily Dow, Kira Guarino, and host Emily Duncan
There is absolutely no shortage of misinformation floating around the fitness and health space. Every day, you can log onto social media and find someone talking about how pretty much any food you can think of, whether it's oats or fruit or vegetables, is bad, why insulin is your enemy, and oh hey don't forget, you should do 75 Hard if you really want to make progress. But wait, there's more, because if you drink coffee on an empty stomach, you're going to hurt your hormones! It's really fucking confusing out there, and it's hard to know what's real and what isn't, and this confusion leads to more and more people feeling defeated trying to get healthier and live better lives. On today's show, I'm joined by Emily Dow and Kira Guarino, my fellow coaches at FENIX ATHLETICA, to bust some of these egregious myths wide open and help break through the noise that is navigating health and fitness on the internet today.

Shadow Work: What It Is and What It's Not, How to Use It, and How the Darkest Places are What Bring You the Life You've Always Dreamed Of | with Chris Orozco and Emily Duncan
"Shadow work." You've probably heard one if not more spiritual gurus talk about it on IG (and... probably butcher it). Today, we're clearing up all the myths and misconception with Shadow Integration Coach, Chris Orozco. In today's show, we talk about what shadow work is, what the shadow is and how it's often misportrayed online, how you can start shadow work, and in true EMBody Radio fashion, hear some powerful personal anecdotes from Chris that show he truly lives his mission. From how he got started working as a shadow work coach, to how he left it completely and found his way back again, to how he took himself through another season of personal alchemy these last 2 years, finding himself more internally challenged than ever before, and how he came out on the other side. We also talk about tactical tools for perfectionists and those who struggle to take action when it comes to building the life they want to live, and why sometimes, we're actually terrified of our dream lives/selves.

My Top 5 Mistakes in Business and why Being an Influencer Can Be "Bad" For Business | with host Emily Duncan
I've been in entrepreneurship for over 8 years. And in that 8 years, I've gotten a crash course in business, complete with my fair share of triumphs and "... ah fuck"s. I want to help you avoid that or correct that within your own entrepreneurial journey, just like I always have as a fitness show. In this episode, we're talking about brand values and mission, the down side of building a business as a content creator and the dependency on one primarily person for lead gen, managing business finances, the power of observing financial trends in your business, and what happens when you try to appeal to a client that isn't your authentic ideal client archetype (and what happens when you do). I hope this helps you on your business journey, and if you aren't into business, that it gives you a peak behind the curtain of what it's like to run an online coaching business from my POV.

Nutrition Red Flags to Look for in Yourself and Your Eating Behaviors | with host Emily Duncan
This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only, and is not intentded to serve as medical advice and/or be diagnostic in any way. First and foremost, nutrition and food behavior are incredibly complex. It's impossible to cover the breadth of that in one podcast. So, as you listen today, listen with that reality in mind. Today, we're talking about some of the most common nutrition + food behavior red flags I see in new clients + in conversations floating around the internet. We also discuss where some of these may stem from, ranging from lifestyle behavior to neurodivergence to eating disorders, and potential strategies for helping turn red flags a little more green. If you are someone that is dealing with disordered eating and/or an eating disorder, please seek the appropriate counsel from a mental health professional and/or eating disorder Dietitian.

Your Idea of Masculine and Feminine Energy Sucks: Embracing Your Own Polarities and Taking Personal Responsibility | with Chris Beal and Emily Duncan
If you've spent any time hanging around the spiritual community, you've probably heard the terms, "masculine and feminine energy" by now. I personally think they way these are being talked about... really fucking sucks, misses the mark entirely, and can keep you from the fullness in your relationships (with yourself and others) that you desire. This is something my partner Chris and I talk about often, so we decided to bring that conversation public and share our thoughts. In this show, we break down how the more popularly used "definitions" of masucline and feminine energy are holding you back and potentially harming your relationships, and how to embrace more personal responsibility within yourself so you can feel safe in your own personal space, where you, surprise surprise, cultivate and nurture both masculine and feminine energy within your own being.

How Hardcore Fitness Can Make You Fat and How to Restore Metabolism After Years of Chronic Dieting | with Vince Pitstick and Emily Duncan
Have you ever felt like your body and metabolism just "weren't the same" after years spend trying to diet and get "fit?" Has it ever felt like the more hardcore you got in your fitness pursuits, things actually started backfiring, and you started gaining weight uncontrollably that wouldn't come off, all while developing symptoms like bloating, food intolerances, anxiety, poor digestion, irregular or missing periods, chronic fatigue, and chronic inflammation? And if you said yes, have you ever felt hopeless or like you were destined to be overweight and tired for the rest of your life?

The Tell-All of my Psychedelic-Induced Existential Crisis: Pain, Trauma, Healing, and Meaning | with host Emily Duncan
Today we are getting REAL vulnerable. I've never really talked about this in full, raw form on any of my platforms. In 2021, I embarked on a psychedelic medicine ceremony with a very powerful medicine - Bufo, or 5-MeO-DMT. That experience took a turn when I came home and my integration went south, or more specifically, went dark. That experience launched me into a real-life existential crisis, and it was one of the most challenging times in my life. This episode is an unfiltered tell-all. *CONTENT WARNINGS* This episode is not meant to endorse the use of illegal and/or psychoactive substances, and is for entertainment only.

Periods aren't meant to be something that destroys your entire week when you have them, and there are so many accessible ways we can naturally support our menstrual cycles. One of the top pieces of feedback we get from clients is that their periods become more consistent and less painful while working with us. In this episode, we talk about simple ways to improve cycle health, and we also cover why you don't need to practice cycle syncing with your training (and why I actually kind of hate that methodology as a health + fitness coach).

Realistic Ways to Cultivate More Discipline and Discipline as an Act of Self Love | with host Emily Duncan

We've all been there - life comes at you fast, or mental health struggles hit, and you suddenly find yourself in the middle of an icky, sticky, mucky funk. Like you're in swamp. And that is decidedly... not the vibe. I found myself in a really high stress season this summer, and sure enough, funk was I in.

So, I'm sharing with you some of my favorite tried-and-true de-funking practices to help you shift your state and get into your best life (and self) yet.

Take Your Power Back and Become Your Own Healer - Spiritual Tools for High-Achieving Women | with Taylor Stone and Emily Duncan
Today’s guest is Taylor Stone. Taylor is a former NFL cheerleader whose mission is to help high-achieving women remember their power and become their own healer. Using her background from her health sciences degrees, self-mastery, and alchemical energy healing, Taylor helps give her clients useful tools and practices to help her clients create their own heaven on earth and attract what they truly desire into their lives. I’ll be honest, when we first started talking about alchemical energy healing in the episode, I had no clue what it was. But that’s what podcasts are for! So, today we’re diving right on in to help you add some new tools to your spiritual and energetic toolbelt. As with everything, not every tool or teacher is for every person. If something resonates with you, amazing! My motto is take what lands and leave what doesn’t. But trust me, you're going to get some great "nuggets from the Universe" in this one!

Intuition: Learning how to Listen to, Harness, and Strengthen Your Internal Guidance System | with host Emily Duncan
In today’s episode, we’ll be exploring all things intuition. It’s one of my most frequently asked questions in the spiritual category - how to strengthen your intuition, how to listen to it, and how to discern between an emotional reaction vs. your intuition, and how to harness its power to improve your health, wealth, and relationships. Our intuition is an incredible tool that often goes unnoticed or ignored in our masculine, urgent, logic-driven world. But by understanding and trusting your intuition, we can revolutionize just about every area of our lives. When we’re able to remove some of the static from the station that is our deep, true internal guidance system, we’re able to naturally experience better health, more wealth, deeper relationships, and overall lead more aligned and fulfilling lives.

Grief and Letting Go, the Art of Surrender, Men's Mental Health, and Creating a Safe Space for the People We Love | with Caleb Campbell and Emily Duncan
Caleb is a former NFL player and West Point graduate, and as cool as all of that is, and as much respect as I have for it, what he’s doing now is the entire reason he’s on this show. It was when Caleb reached a point of feeling completely burnt out with little to no self-worth or self-concept that he decided to leave the NFL, leave the only life he ever knew behind, pack up his bags, and head to Canada to start his journey of mental and emotional health exploration. Now, Caleb is a professional speaker that works with leaders, and helps them create more capacity within themselves and their teams so that can expand their abilities as leaders, elevate their performance, and experience an overall better quality of life. On today’s episode, we’re diving into all things emotions: experiencing and moving through grief, grief as a teacher, leaning into the unknown, how to create a safe space for the people we love, the difference between creating a safe space and coddling, the importance of men’s mental health, how safety can feel dysregulating when safe environments aren’t familiar to us, the relationship between money and your nervous system, and so much more.

Energy Availability and the Menstrual Cycle: How to Support Your Body + Performance | with host Emily Duncan
Women's health and the menstrual cycle is pretty misunderstood. After the menstrual cycle basics episode went over so well with everyone, I wanted to continue creating more content about women’s health, especially menstrual health. It breaks my heart that so many of us, self included, don’t truly learn about our physiology and our body’s natural cycles until our 20s or 30s, sometimes even later, or until we’re dealing with some kind of reproductive health issue. When we can learn how to work with our bodies instead of constantly trying to drop kick them into submission, not only can we live healthier lives, but we can actually make more fitness progress. I’ve seen it time and time again both in myself and in clients: when female physiology is operating as female physiology is meant to, i.e. we have a healthy, reliable period, we perform better, build muscle and lose fat more easily, and overall experience a higher quality of life. Today I want to talk about one of the biggest “offenders” in the health and fitness space. Today, we’re going to be talking about Energy Availability, amenorrhea, and how chronic dieting, aka chronically under-consuming Calories, negatively impacts the menstrual cycle.

The High Achiever's Guide to Inner Success, Compassionate Personal Development, and Breaking Through Barriers By Being Instead of Doing | with Yedda Stancil and Emily Duncan
Today’s guest is such a powerhouse and honestly couldn’t be more perfect for this show and the people who listen to it. We’re talking with Yedda Stancil, a lifestyle and leadership coach that works with high achievers that have achieved high levels of external success, and want to shift and work on inward success. Think: self-worth, deep self-understanding, compassion, growing and motivating yourself from a place of love vs a place of inadequacy, and how to “do the work” without treating yourself like a never-ending self-improvement project. In my own personal and spiritual development journey, I’ve definitely fallen into the traps of perfectionism, hyper-healing, always needing to be growing or working on something, and to be brutally honest, feeling like if I’m not motivating myself from a place of insufficiency, that I won’t be as motivated or driven. We talk through all of those things today, and we focus specifically on how shifting away from doing as a means to being, a more masculine framework, and into being as a means of doing, a more feminine framework, can help high achieving, high performance humans rise into their next level of not just external accomplishment, but inner peace and alignment.

Mentors I Wish I Had: When Personal Wounds Come Up in Business | with Emily Duncan
Business and entrepreneurship can be a really interesting experience, especially when old personal wounds are triggered or activated in a business setting. If you're an entrepreneur or in any sort of leadership role, business can provide us and the people in our environments with a unique opportunity to learn, reprogram, and repattern in a growth-oriented direction. We hear all about the more masculine components of business, like the legal side, the contracts, the structures, etc, but we don't hear as many people talking about the more feminine components, like holding and moving through your emotions and what comes up for you when challenges present themselves.

Triggers as Teachers: the Stages of Being Triggered, Taking Ownership, and Moving Through Them | with host Emily Duncan
Whether it's living in a culture that's perpetually triggered or working through T/trauma triggers and healing, triggers (or otherwise things that generate a large mind/body/nervous system response) are a fascinating concept. I've noticed some core patterns + stages within the journey of identifying and moving through triggers, and in doing so, learned to use them as tools for self-exploration and growth, and ultimately see them as invitations to reclaim our power. DISCLAIMER: I am not a psychologist, therapist, or researcher on triggers + responses. This is simply pattern recognition from lived experience, working as a mentor/guide, and what I've noticed comes up consistently in the human experience. The sole intention of this post is to provide potential perspective , to encourage curiosity and examination of common responses, and help shift you into a space of sovereignty/empowerment in your experiences.

THE SEXCAST: Prioritizing Your Pleasure, Embracing Sensuality, Why You Should Take More Nudes, + the Vulnerability of Intimacy | with Lauren Russell and Emily Duncan
If you're anything like me, you weren't really taught much about sex and sexuality growing up, and you may or may not have felt really disconnected from your body and your sexuality for... most of your life. Well, that ends here. Today, we're talkin bout sex baby, and I'm joined once again by one of my very best friends, Lauren Russell. Lauren and I have two very different experiences of our sexuality growing up, but we're coming (haha) together to open the door to a really important converation: sexual wellness and the importance of pleasure. In case you were wondering how taking nudes (even just for Y O U) can be a sensual act of empowerment, how to learn to desire yourself, how to embrace your sensuality, how to prioritize your pleasure, and how to step into the vulnerability that is physical + emotional intimacy (even and especially when it's hard), we've got you. And if you've ever wondered the difference between a crotch sneeze and a full body orgasm, well, we've got that covered, too. Truly, educational gold here.

Masculine and feminine energy is all the rage on social media these days, and I absolutely love polarities.

How Emotion Connects to Pain, Pain and Your Chakra System, Exploring Your Masculine and Feminine Energy, and the Body as a Spiritual Vessel | with Tania Lopez and Emily Duncan
One in five Americans deals with chronic pain strong enough to interfere with daily life, and even more with pain that's still enough to be, well, a pain. What if you could deal with pain in a way that didn't require popping a bunch of pills? What if there was the potential for a deeper emotional connection to the pain you're experiencing? Well, you can and there often is. Our bodies are constantly receiving, processing, and storing information, and our emotions often get stored in our physical bodies. When left unmanaged, they can create bigger problems down the line. Whether it's a physical injury, a traumatic event, or simply repressed feelings, all of these things can manifest in the physical body. In today's show, I'm joined by one of my best friends, Tania Lopez, who specializes in a hollistic and functional movement approach to identifying, understanding, and healing pain. We talk about how emotions become physical symptoms, what our posture can tell us about our emotional state, tapping into your chakra system as a healing modality, and treating your body as a tool in your emotional and spiritual healing. We also do a dive on our take on exploring your feminine and masculine energies and using your uniqueness as your superpower.

The Truth Behind Spiritual Experiences, Spiritual Identity, and Demystifying Your Spiritual Journey | with Lauren Russell and Emily Duncan
Spirituality is taking social media by storm... whether it's someone sharing spells on your TikTok for-you-page, following seemingly wise spiritual teachers on Instagram, going to a meditation retreat, or anything in between, there's more and more spiritual information hitting our ears these days. This is great, and this can also be really dangerous. Today, I'm sitting down with my friend Lauren Russel and talking about what it truly means to us to live a spiritual path, what to look out for in spiritual teachers, the "checklist" of spirituality, and how to truly start working on your spirituality in a genuine, easy, rooted way.

Overcoming Food and Dieting Addiction, the Power of Self Compassion, Being Selective about Your Healers,
Content note for today’s episode: we are talking heavily about food, food addiction, dieting, eating disorders, binge eating, and diet culture. If you are particularly sensitive to those topics, please listen at your own discretion. Today we’re talking with Molly Carmel. Molly is an addictions and eating disorder therapist with extensive training in substance use and eating disorders with extensive training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. She’s also the author of “Breaking Up with Sugar,” a no-nonsense take on food addiction and unhealthy relationships with sugar and grain flour. Molly is what she calls a “wounded healer,” aka everything that she does as a professional stems from her own healing journey and the desire to help others. She herself struggled for years throughout her early childhood before she was even 10 years old throughout her young adulthood with obesity, food addiction, binge eating, and fad diets, and it was this exact journey that led her to where she is today as a professional creating real change in people’s lives. Today, we basically become immediate BFFs, and we dive into all things diet culture, food and diet addiction, the addiction to starting over, the questions you should be asking your healers and coaches before you hire them, the role of spirituality in Molly’s journey, and Molly’s new revolutionary coaching program coming out on February 5th. This episode is stocked full of wisdom, insight, honesty, personal stories, strength, love, and most of all, passion. You can hear in Molly’s voice how deeply she cares about her mission, and it’s an incredible mission at that. Without further ado, let’s dig into today’s episode with Molly Carmel.

We've all found ourselves stuck, burnt out, or otherwise questioning our life's path and purpose at some point in our lives.

Today we're joined by my good friend and 3-peat EMBody Radio guest, Chase Chewning. We're diving in to Chase's most recent journey of becoming, his foray into the world of psychedelics, using entheogens like MDMA and psilocybin as tools for changing your state and becoming more connected to the world and people around you, one of the best ways to shift away from burnout, how ketamine assisted therapy helped Chase navigate PTSD from the loss of his father, and learning the true duality of how little we matter as water droplets in the river of life, and how important we are to that river at the same time.

Harnessing Activation Energy to Master Any Skill, Why Language Matters, and Practical Climate Change Solutions | with David Rosales and host Emily Duncan
It's safe to say we've all learned something in our lives (or at least I hope so), but how often do we actually sit and think about the skill of learning, and how to... learn how to learn? Today's guest, David Rosales, is not only one of my best friends, but is truly the embodiment of a lifelong, enthusiastic learner. In today's episode we talk about David's passion for learning, particularly his passion for learning languages, and how he's harnessed the power of "activation energy" to overcome the initial intertia in any new skill, how to lower activation energy to make learning easier, how to apply these concepts to skills like fitness, and overcoming the hurdles involved in any new endeavor so you can get to mastery faster. We also do a deep dive on why language and the nuance of language matters as a way to preserve culture and enhance thinking, talk about practical climate change solutions anyone can participate in, and David's original concept of Defensive Propaganda as a tool to better understand and stand up for what we believe in.

Sleep. What a beautiful and essential thing, amirite? I’m right. I don’t know about yall, but I can handle getting a little hangry. But if my sleep is messed up? All bets are off. The last 6-8 years, largely as a byproduct of being a general health enthusiast and also investing a lot of time and energy into competitive bodybuilding, learning how to optimize my sleep has been a huge priority. Sleep is one of our biggest forms of recovery, right up there with our nutrition. If we can harness the power of good sleep, everything from our mood to our fat loss to our performance to our blood sugar regulation improves. Today’s episode is coming from someone who has devoted quite a bit of time and effort into optimizing a lesser-appreciated aspect of our sleep: your pillow. Yep, that’s right, your pillow. We’ve heard from all the fancy mattress companies, and yall know how much I love my performa sleep mattress, but I foolishly never thought to give my pillows much thought. I knew I was picky with pillows, which you’ll hear more about on the episode, but I didn’t know we could actually have… an optimized pillow for our sleep needs and preferences???? Today we’re chatting with Susana Saeliu, the co-founder and CEO of Pluto Pillow. Susana started experiencing neck pain in 2017 and found that the main offender was her pillow. So, she set out to create a company that solved pillow problems around the world through crafting the perfect pillow. Thus, Pluto Pillow, the first and only custom sleep pillow that’s crafted to your body stats, how you sleep, and what you like, was born. At Pluto, they take in all sorts of stats and preferences to help build a pillow that’s truly bespoke to you and your needs for your best sleep experience yet. Today we’re talking all things sleep hygiene, being a female in the entrepreneurial space, and finding your voice as a woman in business. This episode is so inspiring, and Susana really does bring something so fresh and amazing to the business space. Annnnd if you’re looking to treat yourself to a Pluto Pillow ofyour own, they’re offering EMBody Radio listeners an exclusive discount of 10% off your custom pluto pillow with the code EMBODY at checkout on plutopillow.com. Once again, that’s code EMBODY for 10% off your Pluto Pillow of plutopillow.com Annnnd to sweeten the dreams a little further, I have a very exciting announcement from our partners over at Cured Nutrition, and that’s the NEW Cured Nutrition CBN night caps. These have 30mg cbd, 5mg cbn, 1.5mg thc. Great to stack with Zen. It’s a little stronger than the CBN tincture, so if you’re ready to have the easiest time falling and staying asleep, this is the one for you. I’ve been using these ever since I got them at the end of the month, and WOW. These are a game changer. I already was a sound sleeper, but now… complete next level

It's the most wonderful time of the year... or is it? I know there are a lot of differing opinions on setting New Years Goals/Resolutions.

In today's episode, I want to help give you the framework for not just setting better goals, but for developing better STRATEGIES to plan for, execute, and reach those goals.

123. Making Meditation and Mental Health Cool, Simple, and Exciting | with Sarah McDevitt
Meditation, breathwork, and mindfulness practices are some of the most effective AND accessible practices for your mental and physical wellbeing... but so many people don't know where to start. This episode is here to help you bridge that gap by hearing about the amazing story and evolution of Sarah McDevitt of Core . Sarah McDevitt joined Hyperice in July 2021 as the head of the newly created Mind Technologies Division, following the company’s acquisition of Core. Sarah founded and served as the CEO of Core with the goal of making effective mental wellness support an accessible foundation of everyday life. After playing basketball in college for New York University and then starting her career at Microsoft, Sarah was taken aback by an unexpected bout of anxiety that she had never experienced. She found personal relief in meditation but discovered it was challenging to make it a regular, long-term habit and wanted to better understand the science behind it. Inspired by the power of meditation and similar practices that impact both mental and physical health, she went on to research mental well-being while earning a Master’s degree at Stanford University. Core gives you the power to develop a breathwork + meditation practice for any and all of your needs, whether it's increased calm, decreased anxiety, increased energy, or increased focus, while ALSO providing you with the empowerment of biometric data to help track your nervous system's changes over time.

Goooood morning EMBody Radio family! Today we're here for the first solo episode in a long time. For today's show, I wanted to dig into some reflections from my readings and notes from a book that has been changing my life: "Women Who Run With the Wolves" by Clarissa Pinkola Estes, PhD. This episode in particular is reviewing the story of La Loba , The Wolf Woman, the collector of bones. I'm digging into my reflections from this story and how it's played out in my life in real time (including some of my experiences in Sedona), some of the heavy emotions it's been guiding me through, and some of the "bones" of my own that I've been gathering. I've also included some question prompts for YOU all and I really invite you to sit (preferably with a nice cup of tea or coffee or whatever your thing is) and journal/reflect on them to improve your own self understanding, intuition, and inner alignment. I hope you enjoy and you learn something about yourself. Thank you for listening. ---- Interested in working with EDF Coaching to reach your fitness and lifestyle goals? Click here to inquire!

Fat loss isn't meant to be rocket science... So why do we feel like it is and how do we fix that? Insert Matt McLeod, Registered Dietitian and fitness coach (and one of my really cool friends).

115. The Basics of Birthcharts, Reframing Mercury Retrograde, and the Spiral of Fortune and Growth | with Brittany McMurray, Astrologer and Tarot Reader
In 2021, there's a fair chance you've seen (and maybe shared) at least one astrology meme circulating around social. Perhaps you've lamented over the trials and tribulations of the big, scary Mercury Retrograde (or in meme terms, Mercury in Gatorade). Maybe now you know your "Big Three." But... what does it all mean? Today we're talking with my good friend Brittany McMurray: astrologer, tarot card reader, and seer who, in her words, "Doesn't tell you what to see, but rather, where to look." We're breaking down the basics of birth charts, like your Big 3 and what they mean, what your different houses represent, and the overall "Blueprint of your Soul" in Brittany's terms; reframing Mercury retrograde and why it's actually an opportunity vs some cyclical cosmic curse; and talking all things growth, rebirth, relationships, Saturn returns, and navigating the wheels/spirals of fortune that show up in our own lives.

114. From Athletics to Entrepreneurship, Developing Grit, and Living Happy, Healthy, and Whole | with Matt Lombardi
On our show today, we’re talking to a really special guest that I had an absolutely amazing time talking with. Today we’re talking with Matt Lombardi. Matt Lombardi grew up in the greater Boston area and attended Boston College, where he was fortunate enough to play hockey throughout his tenure. As a talented player competing with some of the best teams, Lombardi won the national championship his sophomore and senior year. Lombardi attended the Carroll School of Management, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in marketing in 2010. Lombardi pursued a professional hockey career and went on to play in the New Jersey Devils and Pittsburgh Penguins organizations. Given that hockey is one of the only sports I actually enjoy watching, the fact that he played for the Penguins is preeeetty freaking cool. After a bad concussion his last year playing professional hockey, Lombardi decided to take on a different career path, moving into the tech field. His first job outside of the sports arena was an inbound sales desk at Eaton Vance, and since then has been a serial entrepreneur in the tech space becoming the Co-Founder of a startup called DRIVN Coaching Platform, and most recently CEO & Co-Founder of Grander Inc. Despite the injuries and concussions from his professional hockey career, Lombardi has always had a passion for sports and living an active lifestyle. In 2018, Lombardi was preparing for The Boston Marathon with his long-time friend, another former professional athlete named Kevin Moran. The two trained rigorously to compete while also balancing the stresses of work and life in general. Through their training they felt the effects of old injuries and wondered if there was a way to remedy their ailments with products that lived up to their own wellness standards. It was in this training where Matt and Kevin came together to build a company founded under one common mission: helping high performing athletes AND everyday people live happy, healthy, and whole. That’s where BEAM comes in. On today’s show, I did a deep dive with Matt on the parallels between high-level athletics and entrepreneurship, building a brand on the foundation of focusing on PEOPLE first, and the routines and habits that help him live happy, healthy, whole, AND keep him moving forward in as a business owner.

112. Self Trust, Making Massive Career Shifts, and Reclaiming Your Identity | with Lynette Hoyle
Have you ever desperately wanted to make a career change, but been too scared to take the jump? Today's guest Lynette Hoyle has been there too. Lynette and I became friends through social media way back when in the glory days of 2014 Fit-stagram. in 2017-ish after building and scaling her online coaching practice, Lynette, like many of us, became so frustrated with the ever changing Instagram algorithms and how they were impacting her business, so she hired her first ever business coach. Once she did, she was hooked... not just on fitness coaching, but with business coaching. Since then, Lynette has been on a journey of shifting out of fitness coaching and into business coaching, where she just recently made the pivot into business coaching full time. Today, we're talking about the journey from influencer to business person, how she knew it was time to pivot careers, developing self-trust, and how NOT to make ceviche (no, really, pay attention). Follow Lynette on IG. New to fitness coaching and need some guidance on how to start building and scaling your practice?

111. Male Factor Fertility, the Norms of Masculinity, and How to be Joyful | with Khaled Kteily of LEGACY
1 in 6 or 1 in 7 couples is going to face infertility. We talk about fertility as a women’s issue as a society, but that’s not the case… But, for heterosexual couples, it’s just as likely for infertility to be coming from the male OR the female. Sperm quality isn’t just an indicator of fertility, it’s also a major indicator for male health. In today’s show, we’re talking with Khaled Kteily of LEGACY all about male fertility, the construct of masculinity and how it’s changing and how we can help, common causes of male interfility and things that can hurt sperm health, how TRT can actually HURT your sperm health, and a candid conversation on creating more joy in your life and the things that steal from it. Khaled Kteily is a former healthcare consultant at Oliver Wyman in Toronto and studied healthcare and public policy at Harvard University, where he received a full scholarship and graduated with disctinciton. Khaled has previously worked at the World Economic Forum in Geneva, where he had his work on the future of entrepreneurship published at Davos. He’s also the owner and founder of Legacy. Legacy is a digital first fertility clinic focused on male-factor fertility. Legacy empowers men with the ability to improve, test, or freeze their sperm at home without needing to go to a doctor’s office or talk to someone if they don’t want to. And, fun fact, if you’re in New York or California, your insurance may reimburse you for using Legacy’s product. THAT’S how cool it is.

We talk all about experiencing large growth on social media in one of the toughest years to be a human at all, aka 2020.

105. Dating Advice, Building Sexual Confidence, and Great Wine | with Emily Cossin
You all are in for a TREAT today... First thing's first: today's conversation is definitely more adult in nature, so not the best for listening around little ones, at work, etc. Probably best with headphones OR listening with your gal pals if we're being honest. Today, I chatted with one of my best friends, Emily Cossin. What we covered: -how we met by dating the same guy (it's a good story) -letting Emily roast me and my dating life -learning to deal with rejection and how it's not always "there must be something wrong with me if they aren't into me" -why rejection is a blessing -physical vs emotional rejection -questions and red/green flags for first dates -developing sexual confidence -self pleasure/masturbation -getting to know yourself sexually -demanding what you want/need from sex and how to speak up to your partner -NO ONE LOOKS CUTE WHEN THEY ORGASM -every vagina is beautiful in it's own way, okay?

102. Maximizing Your Productivity | with host Emily Duncan
Today’s episode is going to be all about productivity. 2020 was a year where more of us transitioned to a work from home structure, and that transition was one of the things I was asked about the most. I’ve worked from home from my computer as an online fitness coach since December 2015, and I also did a good chunk of my degree online when I moved out of state. So, needless to say I’ve gotten pretty decent at being productive from home and from a computer. Whether you’re a work-from-home-er or you’re simply trying to find ways to maximize your time, this episode should give you some solid takeaways that you can incorporate into your day.

We’re going over Nick’s journey into meditation, what it’s done for him, why people struggle to go inward, how to set yourself up for TRUE, LASTING success in the new year vs continually beating your head into the wall and not getting anywhere, and Nick’s experience with psychedelics, including his recent trip during the great conjunction that absolutely changed his life.

EP 68 What actually IS "metabolism?" | Metabolism Explained
Everyone talks about "metabolism." Slow metabolisms, fast metabolisms, metabolic adaptation, stubborn metabolisms, all that. But... what actually is "your metabolism?" Can you point to it? Today's episode was inspired by a follower question essentially asking me to help her better understand what "metabolism" actually means. So lets talk allllll about -what "metabolism" actually is from a physical perspective (definition time) -what metabolism practically means -the different components of your metabolism -how those components change/adapt in various scenarios -what having a "slow" or "fast" metabolism actually means -a couple examples of why and how metabolisms adapt to periods of low energy -how metabolic rate is tested -lots more! ----------------- Today's episode of EMBody Radio is brought to you by Four Sigmatic. Four Sigmatic provides the best in adaptogenic/therapeutic mushroom products. You’ve seen me post about this stuff on Instagram and IG stories all the time, and I wanted to take a sec to tell you a little more about them today. I started using them because I love adaptogens, and many of their mushroom products are just that – adaptogens. Adaptogens basically help you respond better to physical and emotional stress. I run a business, run multiple social media platforms that tie into my business, I’m a student, and I have a life outside of all that that I’m trying to live, so stress management is key. Mushrooms can also be used to help everything from your gut health to your skin. My favorites are the Lion's Mane Mushroom Elixir and the Mushroom Hot Cacao with Reishi...

And that's a HUGE detriment not just to our overall health, but to our performance and body composition. In today's show, we're talking sleep. More specifically, we're talking: -How poor sleep may negatively impact fat loss, -How poor sleep may potentially be catabolic (muscle-wasting), -How poor sleep may promote body fat gain, -Sleep hygiene, -Creating a nighttime routine that works for you and WHY you should have one, -Supplements that help with sleep quality/falling asleep, -The best environment for sleep, -Lots more! -------------------- Study referenced: Nedeltcheva, A. V., Kilkus, J. M., Imperial, J., Schoeller, D. A., & Penev, P. D. (2010, October 05). Insufficient sleep undermines dietary efforts to reduce adiposity.

EP 65 Potential Mechanisms of Breast Implant Associated Illnesses/Breast Implant Illness | with Dr. Brian Lee
This episode serves as a capstone of sorts for the resources I've created surrounding breast implant associated health problems, more commonly known as "Breast Implant Illness." Today I had the pleasure of talking with board certified plastic surgeon and MY personal explant surgeon, Dr. Brian Lee, on all things breast implant issues. We talk about: -His journey into the profession, and how his own struggle with psoriatic arthritis led him down a path that blended his knowledge as a surgeon with more holistic/full-systems healing -How he got involved with the Breast Implant Illness community -What Breast Implant Illness is -Some potential causes of/triggers for health complications from breast implants -How he learned about BII in his own patients -The hot topic question of, "Will it happen to everyone with implants?" -Whether or not he feared the success of his practice if he began explanting women and acknowledging BII -Where the medical/surgical community and medical device community could use improvements for patient health as it relates to breast implants in the future -So much more! This conversation was truly a great one as Dr. Lee remains open minded and non-dogmatic around an issue that tends to polarize many.

Steroids, particularly anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS), are very popular in all sports, but particularly strength and physique sports (bodybuilding, Weightlifting, powerlifting, and Crossfit).

Do you take or have you taken hormonal birth control? Do you understand your own menstrual cycle? Have you ever tried to go off birth control and had an awful time trying to regain your natural cycle? Today I had the pleasure of interviewing Victoria Felkar once again.

EP 56 How to Be A Smarter Content Consumer | FRIDAY 5
Social media essentially runs our current world... And I don't really think it's going anywhere. To be honest, there are a TON of positives to social media! But, put it in the wrong hands, and it can go south reeeeeal quick. It gives anyone with a smartphone/computer/tablet the ability to speak freely, without filtration or regulation. That can be a breeding ground for misinformation, especially in the fitness industry. I don't know about you, but there have been many a time when I found myself scrolling, reading, listening, or watching, and I just got FRUSTRATED. Consuming content is a job in and of itself... You have to know HOW to consume it intelligently without letting it take over your entire brain space. In today's episode, I'm giving you 5 of my favorite ways to be a better content consumer so you can have a better overall social media experience! -------------------------- Find me here: Instagram Twitter YouTube My Website

EP 48 Masculinity, Mindset, Body Image, and Fitness After Athletics | with Grant Dziak
On today's show, I had the honor of interviewing someone very near and dear to my heart. Grant Dziak is not only the love of my life, but he's also a brilliant man with incredible perspective and life lessons to offer anyone out there. Today we had (part one of) a very interesting discussion, where we zeroed in on: -body image and eating disorders from the male perspective, -the common insecurity among all humans, -the pressure of trying to "look the part" as a man in sports (in this case, college football), -diet mistakes he made when trying to lose weight to go play football at Ohio State, -men and expressing emotions, -finding courage and greatness in being yourself, -how we can support the men in our lives and break down our own grip on stereotypical masculinity, -LOTS more. ---------------------- Find Grant here: Grant's Instagram Uniqorn Apparel Instagram ---------------------- Today's episode of EMBody Radio is brought to you by Four Sigmatic.

EP 29 Hypothalamic Amenorrhea and Getting Your Period Back | with Nicola Rinaldi
This week's episode of EMBody Radio hits near and dear to my heart. As someone who struggled with amenorrhea, was misdiagnosed with PCOS, and was tired of being dismissed by OBGYN after OBGYN because I was "lean and athletic, so not having a period is normal," period talk is SO important to me. As women, it's our job to be our own advocate and stick up for ourselves and our reproductive health.

EP 27 The Psychology of Fat Loss and Sustainable Dieting | with Sohee Lee
On today's episode of EMBody Radio, I had the pleasure of interviewing Sohee Lee. Sohee and I have followed each other on social media for a while now, and she is AWESOME. She has a degree in Human Biology from Stanford and is completing her Master's degree in Psychology as it relates to Eating Habits. Today we're talking all things food psychology, the psychology of fat loss, focusing on sustainability, making the diet fit the client and not the other way around, shifting our mindsets around food, and so much more. Everyone out there who has ever dieted will be able to both relate to and learn from this episode. Find Sohee here: "Eat. Lift. Thrive." by Sohee Lee: https://www.amazon.com/Eat-Lift-Thrive-Sohee-Lee/dp/1492545902/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1518048194&sr=8-1&keywords=sohee+lee IG: https://www.instagram.com/soheefit/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/soheefit YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/SoheeFit ---------------------- We all know how important sleep is, especially for athletes. It’s where we do the majority of our recovering from training, it’s what leaves us feeling fresh and ready to get after it the following day, and it’s extremely important for maintaining hormonal balance within the body. If you aren’t getting a good night’s sleep, you’re missing out on a huge portion of your fitness journey. I’ve been using a PerformaSleep mattress for over a year now, and my sleep has never been better. Every PerformaSleep mattress has this thing called CopperGel Technology, which offers a cooler nights sleep and added support where needed. It helps you’re your spine in proper alignment, which helps prevent any back pain. It also doesn't use traditional memory foam. Instead, they use Enersorb. Enersorb cradles your body to alleviate pressure, but also has a little bounce to it. So instead of sinking into a bed, it’s like floating right on top of a comfy cloud. The top of each mattress is made with TenCel, a wicking fabric that helps you sleep cooler. On top of that, all Performa Sleep mattress are made right at home here in the US. I can honestly say I can’t imagine not sleeping on a Performa Sleep mattress now that I’ve had one for so long. If you want to start getting the best sleep of your life, head over to PerformaSleep.com and use the code “EMILY125” for $125 off your mattress. ---------------------- Find me here: https://www.emilyduncanfitness.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/em_dunc/ Twitter: <a href= "ht

EP. 20 The Wonder Woman Mentality Unpacked | WONDER WOMAN WEDNESDAY
Welcome back to another episode! You guys have heard me talk for YEARS about my "Wonder Woman Mentality." "Become your own Wonder Woman. Don't rely on the energy of the outside world to fuel you. Find out what makes YOU strong and what makes YOU awesome, and run with it." December, for many of us, is a month of reflection. I’ve really been reflecting on my “Wonder Woman Mentality” these past couple of weeks, and I’ve been taking sort of a personal inventory of what it truly means to me, line by line, and what I hope it means to you guys. I think it’s really easy to establish a mantra or a power phrase or whatever and use it, but then kind of forget what it actually means to you. This mantra/mentality/manifesto/whatever you want to call it has been such a guiding light in my journey both in fitness, but also as a human being. I think part of why it means so much to me is because it’s a reminder of MY strength and MY power, which I think is something that us women tend to forget all too easily. Let's dive in to what the Wonder Woman Mentality means, and what it looks like to take that and apply it to yourself, your life, and your truth.

EP. 16 Focus = Fate
On today's episode, I talk a little bit about one of my favorite metaphors... In lifting, we have this thing called our "occulopelvic tilt." That's fancy words for, "When you move your gaze, you shift the positioning of your pelvis and potentially alter the movement." In today's epiosde, I dive into this metaphorically as it pertains to the focus of your gaze in your daily life. I talk about how your focus determines your fate, how what you magnify multiplies, and some of the most common focal shifts we can and should make to lead happier, more abundant, more impactful lives.

My Story - EMBody Radio EP. 2
While I've shared a good bit of my life, my past, and my story via social media, I've never really dove in and got into the nitty gritty of it. From being body shamed at 8 years old, to developing an eating disorder in high school, I've gone through a bit of body struggles... Ultimately, those struggles are what made me strong and are why I have fallen in love with the fitness industry - it has empowered me to be ME, not to fit a mold, whether that be physically or emotionally. Listen to this episode to learn about my story, where the Wonder Woman Mentality came from, and where I'm going from here.
