In order to truly transform your health, break free from misconceptions, and find balance in nutrition—you have to be in a certain headspace.
Welcome, Strangers, to Headspace by My Mama Done Told Me!
In this segment, we sit down with experts in various professions, hobbies, spiritualities, and passions—seeking a glimpse into their unique perspectives on life and all its complexities.
In this episode, Jeff, Lauren, and Mama Kathy had the honor of speaking with certified fitness nutritionist Elicia Briggs, who works at Nutrition Pros by Todd Smith in Omaha, Nebraska. Elicia brings a wealth of knowledge from her background as a former natural pro bodybuilder and her extensive education in sports medicine and education. She shares her journey from competitive bodybuilding to coaching individuals toward sustainable, healthy lifestyles.
We discuss the biggest nutrition misconceptions, how to find balance in eating without deprivation, and why small, intentional changes are the key to long-term success. Elicia also explains how food is the true foundation of health, why mindset matters , and how to shift from overwhelm to empowerment in your fitness journey.
Get ready to ditch the fads, embrace real change, and maybe even stop calling it a "cheat meal."
