On today's episode of the Progress over Perfection Podcast, we're discussing how to beat your sugar addiction. With the holiday's in full force, it's safe to say many of us are feeling the impacts of the higher levels of sugar consumption. Today, I interview Kes Rocha who knows sugar addiction all too well.
Kes Rocha, is a body loving, disease prevention focused Health & Wellness Morning Routine Specialist and creator of the SUGAR REPAIR 6-WEEK PROGRAM, CLEAN EATING CHALLENGE, and her Signature 90 day KEEP EATING SIMPLE (KES) Plan®.
After years of coaching her clients meet their weight loss health goals, she kept hearing the same struggles. "I'm addicted to sugar"! "My addiction with sugar and food is ridiculous and is affecting my health and general life." "I don't know how to quit."
She observed this in so many clients that she devised a way to interrupt the cycle, help them kill their sugar addictions and give women back their lives and the power to make their own routines that work for them, SIMPLY!
Having kicked her own sugar addiction over 2 years ago she's now empowering others how to do the same. When she's not sharing inspiration with others on Facebook or in her challenges, she's enjoying the mountains of beautiful Utah with her handsome high school sweetheart, her look-just-like-mom teenage daughters, and the rest of the Rocha clan that all live within a mile of home.

In today's 26th episode of the Progress Over Perfection Podcast, I'm talking about the 10 most transformative moments in my life to date. Reflecting on our past and how it's shaped us is one of the best exercises we can do. It allows you to get to know yourself, truly figure out what you want and where you want to go in life. It's important to look back at what worked, what didn't, and also equally as important to look forward and dream about the future.

We're back with our 25th episode of the Progress over Perfection podcast. Today, I'm talking about "The Hustle For Worthiness," inspired by Brene Brown. A close friend of mine recently confided in me that she feels unworthy in her new job. Knowing her, I knew without a doubt she was giving 110%, but she still felt like no matter how hard she worked she needed to keep proving herself.
That got me wondering, how many of us spend our lives "proving" ourselves to others? Whether it's in a job or relationship, the hustle for worthiness can only lead to one thing: disappointment.

I'm back with the 21st episode of the Progress over Perfection Podcast. In today's episode, I'm talking about my top 5 tips for navigating the holiday's and parties. This use to be a really anxiety provoking time of year for me. I was constantly nervous about going to parties and celebrating holiday's because I always felt pressure to eat certain things. My relationship with food and exercise wasn't the best, and it definitely hindered me from enjoying the season for what it is. I can confidently say that after many, many years of navigating the holiday's, I very much look forward to them now. So today, I want to help you ease into the holiday's with joy rather than fear. I want this season to be filled with memories of loved ones, adventures, and not how much you "felt" like you over ate and under exercised. I've got you covered, you're never alone.
Show Notes:
1. Prioritize your healthy foods and fitness
2. Navigating the actual day of the holiday, parties and social gatherings
3. What to do with your fitness and food the few days after the holidays, parties, etc
4. Addressing family members, friends and co-workers who may push food on you
5. Last but not least, remembering what this season is all about
