011: Lose Weight and Never Find It Again! with Jonathan McLernon

"Compassion is a place of understanding without judgment. And in compassion, we can create change." -Jonathan McLernon

When it comes to weight loss, self-love, and holistic health, the connection between the three is more apparent than ever. Popular culture has made it clear that the first two are synonymous with the third, but the truth is much more complicated than that.

Many people follow diet trends and weight loss tips without taking the time to understand deeper why they do them in the first place. Their goal is to follow a standard taught to them by society. But that standard is often motivated by self-loathing and being unhappy with the person they are inside out.

Our guest this week, Nutrition and Fitness Coach, Jonathan McLernon explains that there's a lot more to a healthy lifestyle than just what goes into our body. It's not just about calories and macronutrient ratios— it's about self-love.

Join us as we attach a deeper meaning to self-love and reframe what we already know about self-care. Coach Jon and I also talk about how healthy food choices may even be faster than fast food, how weight is not a problem but a symptom, why brain-driven weight loss is more effective, how health is affected by many other factors besides food, and how we can lose not only weight but our old, self-sabotaging self.
