Summary

Do you feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information available to us today? Having answers and research available at our fingertips can be incredibly helpful, but it also brings the challenge of stress and overwhelm around deciding which voices to listen to and which changes to implement. Fallon Lee is joining me on the podcast again to tackle this complex topic, and I’m confident this conversation will be a blessing to you! We each share portions of our own journeys and our decision making criteria in hopes of helping you navigate this overwhelming information age with grace and sustainability.

In this episode, we cover:

  • The problem with having access to so much information
  • A few tangible criteria for evaluating new information
  • Why it is important to acknowledge the specific season you are in
  • Identifying when it may be time to pursue new knowledge
  • Zooming out and taking on an intuitive and historical lens
  • Discerning which voices and sources to trust
  • Why our intuition is a valid piece of our decision making
  • Laying a solid foundation for health through grace-based nutrition
  • Prioritizing our goals and establishing habits around them
  • Healthy habits to prioritize as a new mom
  • Prioritizing a healthy diet while on a budget

ABOUT FALLON

Fallon was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s after the birth of her second son, and within a few years of going the “cutting foods” & chasing symptoms route, she was down to eating only seven foods. When she came across the world of metabolic health, she was both amazed and a little offended that she realized she did not have to claim this identity of restrictive eating & autoimmunity for life. She could heal?! And that’s exactly what she did. Today she is walking in absolute food freedom (including dairy & gluten), she is off of all medication, & she is teaching other women that they can do the same while curating delicious recipes along the way. Aside from being a metabolic recipe queen, she is also a wife & homeschool mom of 3 boys in Texas.

If you took health advice from like every corner of the internet or every podcast, you'd be left with pretty much no food that's safe to eat.

0:07.9

Yeah, nothing. All of your habits would be in question. And it's no wonder we're so confused and exhausted. And especially recently, it feels like there's sort of this uprising of women who were like, I am just done being crunchy. It's just too much. I can't keep up with all of the rules and regulations. And that is a heartbreaking discussion to me because I feel like we've just lost so much nuance and we've lost so much grace.

Welcome back to the Simple Farmhouse Life podcast. Today I'm having Fallon back on. I had her on, I want to say like a year ago, maybe more time flies. But today we're going to talk about implementing new information and information overload in this day and age, which is a very pressing problem for a lot of people.

1:12.0

Women especially, especially I feel like someone who is newer on the journeys of, like,

1:17.6

you know, health and wellness or especially new moms, anybody on the beginning edge of that,

1:23.7

really this can be such a problem.

1:26.1

I had it too, but I didn't have the internet in the way that it is

1:29.6

right now. And so it did feel more simplified. I had certain books that I read, certain blogs that I read,

1:35.5

but there wasn't this like every person having an account to teach me about certain things that

1:41.6

are very contradicting. It felt more black and white back then than it does now. And so it can be quite overwhelming. So we're going to have a good conversation today with Fallon to talk about how she navigates that. And of course, I'll throw in what I've learned over the years as well. Fallon, welcome back on. I know I had you on, I don't even remember now how long ago that was,
