Be Her Now

Made for More Than Mediocrity

“95% of who we are is our unconscious programming.  That means that’s how we grew up, that’s all we ever saw that’s all we ever learned. That’s how we believe we’re supposed to be because ‘this is just how my family is’.  So that’s why it is so dang hard to overcome that. And that’s why most people don’t. That’s why most people are stuck in mediocrity.’ Friends!  With episode 12, season 1 is a wrap!  I am overwhelmed with emotion and gratitude to wrap up the first 12 weeks of the ‘Be Her Now’ podcast.   Join me as we ‘bridge the gap’ from a life of brokenness, abuse, and lack of purpose to worthiness, peace and healing.  We are all deserving of a life of abundant love and contentment.  I hope today’s episode shines a light on that belief and lights a spark for you to step out in faith to claim it!

Part 2 - Breaking Free from an Unhealthy Relationship with Food

“If you’re not doing the internal work on figuring out why you’re running and what you’re running from every time you reach for food, you’re going to be right back at square one every time;  having gained back the weight and then some. And every new attempt takes you further and further away from what could actually end up being all you needed to do in the first place which is get in touch with yourself.” This is part 2 of our conversation about our relationship with food.  Let’s talk about the diet LIE, the desperate weight loss loop we get stuck in and indicators that your relationship with food is healthy.   In this episode you’ll learn about the most powerful thing you can do right now to begin to heal your relationship with food.  Connect with me on social: Instagram:  @shellysimonsenfitness [https://www.instagram.com/shellysimonsenfitness/] Facebook: @shellyjsimonsen [https://www.facebook.com/shellyjsimonsen] Linktree: @shellysimonsenfitness [https://linktr.ee/shellysimonsenfitness] Email: shellysimonsenfitness@gmail.com [shellysimonsenfitness@gmail.com?subject=Be%20Her%20Now%20Podcast] Sign up for weekly inspiration [https://view.flodesk.com/pages/5f8e61d4bdb72578e33a468f] and be the first to know about upcoming podcast episodes, group coaching, online courses and appearances.

Breaking Free from an Unhealthy Relationship with Food (Part 1)

‘In that moment when you can stay with your feelings and not leave yourself, that’s where it starts. And that is so hard to do, so instead, we stick our hand into a bag of chips over and over and over again until they’re gone, or we feel sick or we finally come to, wondering where the heck we are and what just happened.’ The question posed to me by a client that is the basis of this week’s episode was: “What do you do when you’ve always used food as your source of joy?”   In part one of this two-parter, I cover ways our relationship with food may have formed in childhood, indicators of an unhealthy relationship with food, and what it takes to tune into our body when we really want to bolt and numb with food instead.  What happens when we don’t allow ourselves to use food for comfort?   If you struggle with your relationship with food and feel lost with how to break free, my hope for this episode is that it will shed some light for you, you will begin to do some searching and uncover those deeply embedded roots that have formed your relationship.   I had so much to share, so I split it into 2 episodes!  Be sure to tune in to next week’s episode (Ep. #10) for the second half.   This stuff fires me up and I am SO passionate about helping women have that breakthrough that will lead to a life of food freedom once and for all.  Connect with me on social: Instagram:  @shellysimonsenfitness [https://www.instagram.com/shellysimonsenfitness/] Facebook: @shellyjsimonsen [https://www.facebook.com/shellyjsimonsen] Linktree: @shellysimonsenfitness [https://linktr.ee/shellysimonsenfitness] Email: shellysimonsenfitness@gmail.com [Mailto:%20shellysimonsenfitness@gmail.com] Sign up for weekly inspiration [https://view.flodesk.com/pages/5f8e61d4bdb72578e33a468f] and be the first to know about upcoming podcast episodes, group coaching, online courses and appearances.

First We Build Our Habits, Then Our Habits Build Our Lives

“When we can acknowledge the ever-so-slight affect of our everyday decisions, we can look at how this habit, over time, can put us in a downward trajectory. We may not feel the repercussions right in that moment;  maybe not a month from now or six months or a year from now, but it is taking us one direction or another.” First we build our habits, then our habits build our lives.  Our entire life is a reflection of the things we do over and over and since most of our patterns are subconscious we don’t even question them.  If we’re not conscious of our daily habits, we are under someone or something else’s control.   The key to building better habits is to find the habits that aren’t contributing to a better future and replace them with those that will.  Join me in this episode as we dig into what it looks like to embody the type of woman you want to be and create new habits to support acting in alignment with who she is….now.  Connect with me on social: Instagram:  @shellysimonsenfitness [https://www.instagram.com/shellysimonsenfitness/] Facebook: @shellyjsimonsen [https://www.facebook.com/shellyjsimonsen] Linktree: @shellysimonsenfitness [https://linktr.ee/shellysimonsenfitness] Email: shellysimonsenfitness@gmail.com [Mailto:%20shellysimonsenfitness@gmail.com] Sign up for weekly inspiration [https://view.flodesk.com/pages/5f8e61d4bdb72578e33a468f] and be the first to know about upcoming podcast episodes, group coaching, online courses and appearances.
