This episode explores one of the most important pieces of transformation: identity.

You can track your food, lift the weights, hit your steps, and drink the water. If you still see yourself as the old version of you, the results won’t last.

Heather and Amber talk about what it means to become the person who follows through, prioritizes health, and makes choices that sup...

We are shining a spotlight on something that can make or break any health journey: the people who support you.

Heather and Amber talk about the role spouses, and the rest of your “supporting cast," play when you’re trying to make real changes in your life. From encouragement and accountability to the small daily moments that matter more than we realize, having the...

In this episode, Heather opens up about something so many women experience when they start a new nutrition plan: the confusion around whether they’re actually in a deficit.

She feels like she’s eating a lot of food!!  So how could this possibly be a deficit?

Amber breaks down the common misconception that “more food” automatically means “more calories,” and together the...

In this episode, we get real about the learning curve that comes with starting a deficit diet because it’s never just about the food. For Heather, this phase has brought eye-opening lessons, unexpected challenges, and the realization that sustainable change requires more than tracking macros or adjusting portions.

It requires becoming a different version of yourself.

The Comfort Crisis inspired us to step outside the easy and predictable — and for Heather, that meant taking on a whole new challenge: her nutrition.

As she navigates perimenopause, Heather realized that what used to work for her body isn’t working the same anymore. Her metabolism, energy, and hormones are shifting — and it’s time to adapt. So, she made the brave (and ...

It all started with pre-bed thinking and a little restlessness.

After diving into The Comfort Crisis, both Heather and Amber found themselves lying awake, thinking about what they could do to truly get uncomfortable — to challenge themselves beyond the everyday routine.

The next morning, during a casual chat at the gym, their ideas collided… and the Appalachian Trail hi...

What started as a social media post turned into a wake-up call neither of us saw coming. 

After Amber shared a post about the staggering statistic that 74% of Americans are overweight or obese, she found herself diving into the book The Comfort Crisis — only to discover that Heather had started reading it, too.

Now, we’re both on a mission to get out of our comfort zone...

Your health is YOUR responsibility.

In this episode, we’re diving into a hard truth: you can’t rely on the medical community to keep you healthy. The healthcare system is designed to treat illness, not prevent it. That’s where YOU come in. 

Here’s the reality:
Your doctor can’t exercise for you.
Your doctor can’t cook balanced, nutrient-packed meals for you.
