Episode 28: Carnivore-ISH: Why I Eat This Way (And Why It’s Not a Diet)

Episode notes

In this solo episode, I’m recording from the mountains of Georgia and sharing my personal journey with the carnivore-ish lifestyle - what it actually means, why I’ve been doing it for over three years, and why I don’t consider it a “diet.” I break down: Why I focus on one-ingredient foods (beef, eggs, butter, salt) How removing sugar and ultra-processed foods changed my energy The role protein and fat play in satiety and metabolic health Why simplicity has been the key to long-term consistency What my doctor said about my bloodwork after starting Common misconceptions about red meat, salt, and cholesterol I also share how this way of eating supports gut health, steady energy, mental clarity, and hormone balance - especially in midlife. This isn’t about extremes or perfection. It’s about curiosity, experimentation, and listening to your body. There is no one-size-fits-all approach - but if you’re burned out on dieting, struggling with cravings, or just looking for a simpler way to fuel your body, this conversation may be for you.
