  • Team USA Marathoner Emma Bates on Embracing Her Emotions and Finding Balance
    2022/07/11
    Episode Notes

    "It doesn't matter what you do in this moment. It's all about everything that we put together this entire season. We don't have to have, you know, this "A" workout. You can have a bunch of "B" workouts put together. And again, the accumulation of all those workouts is going to end up with a really great result."

    Today's guest is Emma Bates, elite marathoner for the USA and one of the three U.S. women's marathoners competing at the upcoming World Championships. 

    Emma said one of the coolest things we've heard anyone say on this podcast. She said we all need to learn how to “dance with discomfort.” In other words, if you want to reach your potential in anything you’re pursuing, you have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. You have to make “discomfort” your go-to dance partner. By embracing this notion, Emma was able to place 2nd at the 2021 Chicago Marathon back in October. On that day, she became one of the 10 fastest female marathoners in US history! 

    Make no mistake about it, it wasn’t an easy journey for her to achieve this milestone. What’s really cool is she admits she had to make adjustments to her circumstances to finally experience the successes she’s now having. We talk about those adjustments and the importance of enjoying the journey in this fun-filled conversation with Emma! We think you’re going to love it.

  • Sports Dietitian Jessica Isaacs on Making Nutrition Fun & Accessible
    2022/06/10

    "We have this misconception that we need to look a certain way to perform on our best. Physical aesthetics and athletic performance don't go hand in hand always."

    Today's guest is Jessica Isaacs, the Sports Dietitian for the Los Angeles Clippers and a Master Nutrition Coach for BodyBuilding.com.

    Everyone has questions about diet – from what to eat to lose weight, to build muscle, to think more clearly, to have more energy, to perform better and to sleep better. Our guest, Jessica Isaacs, not only shares much needed answers to some of these questions, she does it in a way that’s fun and easy to understand. Jessica was inspired to become a sports dietitian after overcoming her own negative experiences with diet and exercise. She’s determined to help others do the same. I like to think of her as a dietitian on a mission. 

    It’s amazing how easy it is to take our health for granted. Thankfully, people like Jessica exist in the world. She reminds each of us about the significant impact the right eating habits can have on our daily life experiences. I can’t wait for you to listen to this conversation and find one piece of advice that could help you take a big step forward towards your next personal best!

    14:33 Simplifying the message…

    17:10 “I struggled with nutrition and body image my entire life. I struggled with eating disorders, diet culture, and constantly on a quest to lose weight, even when I didn't need to lose weight.”

    20:04 Aesthetics and athletics don’t always go hand in hand…

    22:14 High school success story…

    25:09 Having a really good “why”...

    30:17 “The one thing that diets don't do is they don't teach you anything.”
