    Strength Training for Optimal Health & Wellness. Women’s Fitness and Nutritional Tips with Heidi Powell

    How to get in the best shape of your life. Tips on workouts and diet from Heidi Powell.

    Heidi Powell is what we call the ultimate female force. She’s a trainer, a transformation specialist, an author, a savvy businesswoman, a health nut, and a mother of beautiful children. She’s the co-host of ABC’s Extreme Weight Loss and has since helped a lot of people choose a healthier and fitter life.
    In today’s episode, Heidi talks about her many ups and downs, what her life was like before she found out what being fit means, and her tips on how to successfully transform yourself both inside and out.
    “Losing weight or reaching any goal is like a game of poker. You have to have your cards and you play one card at a time.” Heidi Powell
    In this episode, you’ll learn:
    • An eating disorder is not always anorexia or bulimia; it’s not being able to find balance with nutrition.
    • Some diets can get the best of you and make you feel stressed, even the most flexible ones like Macro tracking.
    • Finding balance is everything so take a break on your diet every now and then.
    • Doing everything strategically or slowly will lead to a long-term success specially when it comes to weight loss.
    • Parents should be less concerned about kids liking them but more about raising productive human beings.
    • Coaches play a major role in making sure the client sticks with the program. Without a coach, Heidi would be a totally different person.
    • Investing in yourself will always reap more than what you pay for.
    Key Takeaways:
    • It’s not about the weight or how you look but how you love yourself.
    • Trusting the process and the coach is important when it comes to a successful transformation.
    • When you invest money in yourself, not only are saving money on healthcare cost but you’re also clearing you mind as you bring more things other than money into your life.

    About Heidi Powell

    From her online bio:
    Hiiii, I’m Heidi! You might know me best as a fitness and transformation expert where I’ve worked alongside my best friend and husband, Chris Powell, on ABC’s hit show, Extreme Weight Loss. I am also a mother to four amazing kids and two fur babies, a devoted wife, author, and entrepreneur building and balancing my brand and our new digital platform, TRANSFORM.
    While I love physical fitness + nutrition, there is nothing I love more (besides my family) than empowering others to live their best life possible. I’m on a mission to empower women through my own personal stories and triumphs over the hardships I’ve had with disordered eating and other body issues.
    I am here for you! I want to share not only my expertise, but my own personal journey in navigating health and wellness trends, fitness regimens, healthy recipes, family-friendly workouts, marriage, and parenting advice, inspiring you to live your most authentic life, being unapologetically YOU. Follow along with my #PerfectlyImperfect movement where we’ll all inspire each other to live with more grace, gratitude, and appreciation for all that you are on the inside and out.”

    Fitting in Health & Fitness – A No BS Solution with Gary Vaynerchuk

    How Gary Vaynerchuk Got In The Best Shape of His Life.

    Gary Vaynerchuk is a man known to build not buildings but businesses. Just after college, he was able to elevate his family’s wine business from being a relatively small $3M to a whopping $60M business in just five years. He currently runs VaynerMedia, one of the world’s most popular digital agencies. He’s also an angel investor or an investor who believes in start-ups, and also a venture capitalist with investments on large media companies such as Facebook, Tumblr, and Twitter. He eventually co-founded VaynerRSE, an investment fund worth $25M.
    In today’s episode, Gary talks about how his views on his health were able to drastically alter the way he thinks about his business and the way he interacts with not just his clients but also friends and family members. He also discusses his opinions on what it takes to get what you want and why he thinks positivity has become a necessity in an increasingly negative world.
    “My belief in what people can accomplish in business has grown by my accomplishment around my health.” Gary Vaynerchuk
    In this episode, you’ll learn:
    • A two-hour flight changed Gary’s perspective on his health even at the age of 38.
    • Keeping yourself accountable or being accountable to somebody else is a must when it comes to long term health.
    • Age doesn’t have to be a reason why you feel weak or out of breath.
    • There are no shortcuts to health, just the work. It’s the same when it comes to business.
    • Loser mentality is when people hang around other people who just want to complain and not work on a solution.
    • Being good bleeds over but people need to be focused on not crippling themselves living at the standard they can’t live up to.
    • Optimism and positivity is suppressed. Negativity is loud. You need to take that positivity even if people don’t want to hear it.
    • Money, power, fame, it changes nobody. All it does is expose us who they actually are.
    Key Takeaways:
    • You need to know what works for you to achieve the goals other successful people have reached. No need to do it his or her way.
    • Nobody’s going to feel sorry for you. Every winner in your life has zero sympathy for you. Life is harder for some people, life may be harder for you and it needs to change. You can be part of the change by winning and using your money and power to change things.
    Connect with Gary Vaynerchuk:
    Mentioned in this episode:
    Below is the #dailyvee video that captures Gary doing this interview with me. What’s funny– after we ended this recording, the software I was using back then ERASED all of the interview. Luckily since they filmed his day they passed on the audio and truth be told, I had to go back and guess at what my questions were….that was interesting. But either way, it was totally fun reconnecting with my friend and mentor, and a guy who is just the REAL DEAL.

    Glowbiotics Giveaway!

    Glowbiotics Giveaway

    The Best Anti-Aging Probiotic Skincare.

    UPDATE: THIS GIVEAWAY EXTENDED FOR ONE DAY- I WILL CHOOSE WINNERS ON SATURDAY AUGUST 24TH AND ANNOUNCE HERE AND ON INSTAGRAM. If you are at that point in life where you KNOW you need to start taking care of your skin– because you want your skin to match how you feel about your body, right? You work out a lot, eat right, and focus on getting fit…but you might feel that your face (and neck and chest area for that matter) don’t really reflect how young and vibrant and healthy you feel.

    Is this you? Are you looking for an anti-aging skincare solution that actually delivers results? 

    If you’ve been following me for a while you know I have been RAVING about GLOWBIOTICS for quite some time. I first found out about them when I went to get Botox for the first time. I wrote a whole post about my mad love for them here. 

    This stuff is the BOMB. Medical grade probiotic based skincare that feels like heaven when you put it on and – ladies, I am 50 years old– I feel so awesome about my skin, I can’t put enough words here on my blog post to describe it enough. 

    I am CONSTANTLY asked about my skincare and constantly told that my skin “glows”. Now- I will always be very transparent– I mentioned Botox above- so yes, I get “work done”. But- Botox and fillers don’t address your SKIN TEXTURE and they don’t create a glow. Those procedures are more about gravity and the architecture UNDERNEATH the skin. GLOWBIOTICS is going to address your skin and how it looks and feels. And I promise you, you start using these products, you will experience the glow. You will become obsessed. You will never go back to any other skincare. This stuff is AMAZING– and today– is your lucky day because – per the title of this post, it’s GIVEAWAY time!!

    Let's level up your skincare game.

    Kelly Olexa Skincare

    I’m going to be bold and shallow. This photo was taken 2 weeks ago. Did I adjust the photo in Lightroom- yes. What I did was adjust the texture component– because when we took these photos we went inside and outside and it was 104 degrees and when the pics came back it was clear I had some shiny face/sweat stuff going on. I”m sharing this with you to say, I only did a slight bit of touching up on this photo. Frankly I hate the idea of photoshopping myself to look 10 years younger or 20lbs lighter online so when people meet me in person they are like WTH?? Nope. I feel damn great about how I look at age 50 and I attribute a lot of that to Glowbiotics and to my injector at The Jules Co. 😉 Now, let’s get on with the giveaway.
