Summary

This is such a fantastic episode, and you’ll hear how Kara released some of her guilt and shame while learning about herself in the process. So without further ado, let's jump into the interview.

0:00.0	You're listening to Biceps After Babies Radio, Episode 233.
0:04.0	Hello and welcome to Biceps After Babies Radio.
0:08.0	A podcast for ladies who know that fitness is about so much more than pounds lost or PRs.
0:13.0	It's about feeling confident in your skin and empowered in your life.
0:17.0	I'm your host, Amber Breezyky, a registered nurse, personal trainer, wife and mom of four.
0:23.0	Each week, my guests and I will excite and motivate you to take action in your own personal fitness.
0:28.0	As we talk about nutrition, exercise, mindset, personal development and executing life with conscious intention.
0:35.0	If your goal is to look, feel and be strong and experience transformation from the inside out, you my friend are in the right place.
0:43.0	Thank you for tuning in. Now let's jump into today's episode.
0:48.0	If you are tired of your only tool for transformation being restriction and deprivation and cutting out food groups
0:56.0	and you want to be someone who can look in the mirror and actually see a visible transformation
1:03.0	and you're like me and you aren't willing to cut out sugar to get there, then macro counting is the tool that is missing from your tool belt.

1:28.0	They don't understand how to set or adjust their macros and this leads them to getting lackluster results, getting frustrated with the process
1:37.0	and swirling through Instagram just feeling defeated because they're like, well macro counting worked for that woman, why the heck didn't work for me.
1:44.0	And then getting to this place where they just quit and you say something silly like, well, I tried macro counting and it didn't work.
1:52.0	That's like letting go of a helium balloon and watching it float away and saying, well, I guess gravity just didn't work.
1:58.0	No, friend, science is science. Gravity is working just like it should on that balloon. You just don't quite understand the nuances of gravity.
2:06.0	And it's the same thing with macro counting. The question is not does macro counting work because macro counting is just basic science.
2:15.0	The question is, how can I wield that scientific principle? How can I wield that tool of macro counting to get better results?
2:22.0	How can I use that tool for my specific situation? And that's what I teach my clients inside of confidence in your numbers.
