Hi, my friends, I hope you are having a most awesome day!

Guess who’s back in the house? Our very own mental health guru and BCC legend, Kayla Burton! It’s like a family reunion, and everyone’s invited!

Kayla’s been part of our BCC fitfam for over two decades now. She’s not just an alum; she’s a full-blown LPC and with her own practice, Burton Counseling, LLC. Talk about an overachiever! 😊

In our latest pod, we tackle the notorious seasonal depression – yep, the one with a fancy name, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). And we’re diving deep.

We’ll be deciphering the fine line between the Winter Blues and SAD like we’re on some kind of emotional CSI mission. And Kalya’s got the lowdown on recognizing those tricky warning signs.

And hold on to your sunlamps cuz we’re uncovering the ultimate mystery; how to start asking those big questions, and guess what? It starts with Y-O-U. Yep, you heard that right. You’re gonna have to spend some quality time with yourself.

If that’s not enough, Kalya’s sharing with us some awesome resources and tips on finding your own therapist. Plus, she says we all need a vacation. Oh, yes, please!

Thank you, as always, for your brilliant suggestions and questions. You are so wicked smart!

Love you,
Lors

Hi, my friends, I hope you are having a most awesome day!

I invited back one of our most favorite guests, Abby Langer, a Toronto-based registered dietitian and the author of the best-selling book, Good Food, Bad Diet. 

If you haven’t met Abby yet, here’s a quick rundown;
-    She is the author of the bestselling book, Good Food, Bad Diet.   
-    She is a total gangsta when it comes to myth-busting. Like straight up in her blogs, on her social media, in the national news organization, and on our podcast. She has no problem calling out the charlatans and dares us to look at the truth. #truthteller
-    She’s funny and wicked smart. And she cusses, which makes me laugh.

Here are some of the topics we covered in this episode;
-    Gut health (yep, those supplements are a LIE).
-    Diet Coke will kill you (again, another LIE).
-    Can you get enough estrogen from food (nope!).

We also talk about the new weight loss drugs (Wegovy and Mounjaro) and how they are changing the world, how changing your diet is so much more than just changing your food, and loads more.  

If you have any time, I would LOVE for you to listen to Abby. I am so excited to share her knowledge, education, and her sense of humor with you. She is amazeballs!
One more thing, please continue to send me your ideas, comments, and suggestions (Abby Langer was one of them!). YOU are why I do what I do.

Love you,
Lors

Tony contracted the Covid virus on Christmas Day, 2020. And seven months later is still dealing with lingering side effects.

Fatigue, check.
Heavy legs, check.
Head full of pressure, check.
Itchy skin, check.
Brain fog, check.
Loss of taste and smell, check.
The list goes on…

Until yesterday. Seven months later as fast as he lost it, it came back. 206 days later.

And it was so emotional. We laughed and we cried. And ran around smelling all the things. And tasting all the things. And then smelling all the things again.

And, if you know my husband, I give you zero guesses on his first meal. Yep, it was pizza.

It was a pretty amazing day.

And as we were talking throughout the day, I asked him what was the one thing that got through all those long months. He said hope.

So, I asked him if we would join me on a podcast to share his story with you and to hopefully, bring YOU hope.

And, he said yes. Cuz he’s awesome like that.

So, grab your coffee, wine, or your running shoes and hit play.

One more thing, if you are still struggling with Covid, keep the hope. We feel you and we are praying for you.

Again, so appreciate you taking the time to listen to our podcasts and share your thoughts, ideas, and comments. And, if you have any topics, you would like us to discuss in future podcasts, please email me and let me know. The best ideas always come from you.

Much love,
Lors and Tony
