Today, we are covering quality versus quantity. It’s the classic question, "Is what I’m eating more important, or how much I’m eating the most important?” SPOILER! They’re both really important when we look at the overall picture of your nutrition and your dietary habits. We’re talking about the quality versus the quantity of food you eat and what can influence those things. We’ll also dive into being upfront about your personal goals, as that’s the most important thing for where you want to place your highest priority regarding quality or quantity.    Connect with Hope: Follow on Instagram  Join my email list Check out my website   Resources & Links: 7 Days of Simple Meals eBook 30-Minute Nutrition Consultation  The Hopewell Approach Course 1:1 Nutrition Coaching Hopewell Health recipes   Make sure to hit subscribe so you never miss an episode!

Today's episode is all about satiety. We are talking about what it is, how it works, and why it is important. This is one of those terms that I feel like has been thrown around a lot in the nutrition space, but I haven’t seen a great explanation of why it matters to you and how we can build our diet around it. Creating satiety in your diet truly is a cornerstone to creating sustainability in your diet.    Connect with Hope: Follow on Instagram Join my email list Check out my website   Resources & Links: Listen to episode 8: 3 Pillars of a Sustainable Diet + PEC Plates & 2-Mac-Snacks 7 Days of Simple Meals eBook 30-Minute Nutrition Consultation The Hopewell Approach Course 1:1 Nutrition Coaching Hopewell Health recipes Make sure to hit subscribe so you never miss an episode!

The question was: “what are the things that make your clients most successful?” So in today’s episode, I’m going to share my answer to that question and the characteristics that my most successful clients have in common. Even with each clients’ goals being different, these characteristics are what help them achieve their own goals.    Connect with Hope: Follow on Instagram Join my email list Check out my website   Resources & Links: 7 Days of Simple Meals eBook 30-Minute Nutrition Consultation The Hopewell Approach Course 1:1 Nutrition Coaching Hopewell Health recipes   Make sure to hit subscribe so you never miss an episode!

On today’s episode, we’re talking about how to stay on track when you travel. But first, a little disclaimer: I actually don’t like thinking of our nutrition as “on track” or “off track” but this title was just the easiest way to title the topic. Instead, our nutrition is a series of choices and every choice is a new chance to get back to where you want to be. You have the power to change your trajectory and work towards sustainable nutrition.  Connect with Hope: Follow on Instagram Join my email list Check out my website Mentioned Episodes: Episode 10: 4 Ways to Support Your Metabolism During Weight Loss Episode 8: 3 Pillars of a Sustainable Diet + PEC Plates & 2-Mac-Snacks Resources & Links: 7 Days of Simple Meals eBook 30-Minute Nutrition Consultation The Hopewell Approach Course 1:1 Nutrition Coaching Hopewell Health recipes Make sure to hit subscribe so you never miss an episode!
