Clean Eating, Reframed: It’s Not About Cutting Carbs—It’s About Cutting the Crap (Episode 52)
We’ve been sold the idea that “eating clean” means cutting carbs, tracking every bite, and living in a constant state of food guilt. But what if clean eating wasn’t about restriction at all?
In this episode, we’re throwing out the rulebook and redefining what clean eating really looks like—especially in midlife. It’s not about giving things up. It’s about upgrading what’s on your plate so you can feel your best without the overwhelm.
We’ll cover:
– How to focus on food quality over quantity
– What "cutting the crap" actually means when it comes to processed and toxic ingredients
– How to decode confusing food labels like “natural,” “organic,” and “non-GMO”
– Why simplifying your food choices can help you feel empowered—not restricted
If you're ready to feel good in your body again—without extremes—this is your invitation to nourish yourself in a way that supports your energy, hormones, and long-term health.

Here's what my clients are saying: After just a few weeks of focusing on food quality and simple shifts, one of my clients shared, “I’m eating more than I ever have—and I finally feel in control, not restricted. My energy is back, and I’m not afraid of food anymore.” This is what real, sustainable change looks like.
