EP 138: Creating Proactive Habits for Sustainable Health with Amanda Walker of Feel Amazing Naked

Can you truly have a successful business or thriving career at the expense of your health?

I know, it’s a loaded question. But realistically, the answer is a simple, “no.”

Let’s break it down like this: if a successful business is the bridge to financial freedom, and health is your wealth, you can’t have one without the other. Right?

Now, I know that’s a very simplistic and boiled down notion that you can’t have a thriving business or career if you’re not taking care of yourself...that’s not entirely true. Plenty of people have built 6-, 7-, and 8-figure businesses (on paper, very successful), but in day-to-day life, that person feels like they’re pouring from an empty cup. 

Let’s dig deeper for a moment, if you’re chronically exhausted, are always getting sick, constantly have headaches/body aches/generally feel like crap, and never have energy to enjoy the abundant and free life you are aiming for your business to afford you, does any of it matter at all?

And the other factor at play, which is a whole other can of worms is this - can we really be touting to our clients that they need to be taking care of themselves with consistent treatments and high-quality products in the name of self-care if we’re not doing the same? 

Self-care is a buzzword. 

Health and lifestyle, or as my guest on this episode has coined, “healthstyle” is something you embody. 

Joining me on this episode is Amanda Walker, a “healthstyle” coach and  the founder of the Feel Amazing Naked Coaching Program and podcast where she shares her “WHOLE”istic, no B.S., approach to health that blends strategy, skill and mindset to help her clients unearth the root causes of their struggles with food, body and mind to help them create the life they crave.

In this episode we’re deconstructing the cold, hard truth, which is that you may be building a business to gain financial freedom that fuels a life and career you love, but your health is your true wealth. 

Thankfully, she’s also sharing her top tips for creating incremental and sustainable shifts to build long-lasting healthy habits. 

In this episode, we discuss: 

• Why our health and well-being is critical and so much more than the basic buzzword of self-care
• How taking care of ourselves equates to walking our own talk and will enhance not just our wellbeing, but that of our clients’
• How wellbeing directly ties to the other measures of success and how we can set ourselves up for success with healthy habits
• Amanda’s top tips for creating incremental and sustainable shifts to build long-lasting habits
