EPISODE SUMMARY
What if you could have your cake, eat it—AND keep your blood sugar stable all in the same sitting?
I know it sounds impossible, especially if you’re feeling stuck in a never-ending loop of energy crashes and cravings.
But trust me—there’s a way to make it work!
And today, we’re going to show you how.
In this episode, Kara Collier, co-founder of NutriSense, Registered Dietitian (RD), and Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (CNSC), joins me to break down the real-life power of using continuous glucose monitors (CGMs).
She’ll walk you, step-by-step, through the BEST way to track how your body handles food, movement, stress, and even those occasional sugar slips.
You’ll learn how to use this simple metabolism-saving tool to turn daily habits like a quick walk or late breakfast into powerful strategies for boosting your energy, shedding unwanted weight and belly fat, and even reducing your risk of chronic disease.
If you’ve been wanting to feel more in control of your body AND use your meals to create lasting energy and resilience…
This is the episode you’ve been waiting for!
Tune in and get ready to transform your metabolism into an energy-producing, fat-melting powerhouse.

QUOTES
“Any type of movement can really help your metabolic health and glucose control. So it can be really simple things… squats, walks, just moving throughout the day makes a huge impact.”
“When we’re eating meals, we want to see how high your glucose goes and how quickly it comes back down to baseline. That’s really what you want to pay attention to.”
“You can literally have your cake and eat it too. You just need to be mindful—whether it’s with movement before or after, or adjusting your meal slightly, the flexibility is there.”
“Often, people think, ‘I’ll never eat cake again.’ But actually, using tools like a CGM gives you the freedom to find what works for your body, instead of restricting everything.”
