The Cheese Goblin & Losing the Business Baby Weight (Getting Healthy Shouldn't Be All or Nothing) w/ Nick Anderson

Did you grab your free ticket the Big 3 Summit Audience Growth Edition going July 19 - July 23 yet?  If not what are you waiting for? Head over to https://www.thebig3summit.com right now.  (And tag me on your IG stories when you do @kate_doster)________I know I know I said wasn't coming back until August 18th and that's still true, but I'm coming back for a "What to send your list in August" at the end of the month and I just couldn't wait to share with you this episode. You see I've neglected my health and wellness for so long it was starting to take a serious toll and I don't want the same for you.
So we are starting a quarterly health & wellness series on the podcast. To kick things off - we're chatting with my friend Nick Anderson of nickandersonfitness.com all about getting back on the horse with your fitness and eating better. 
Fair warning there is ALOT of giggling in this episode because we've known each other for like 15 years and it's hard to be super professional together...However in this episode we chat about:
How no food is actually bad food
If you should focus on what you put in your mouth first or movement first 
Why the word "Tupperware" is so triggering to Nick
What it's like working with a health coach
Cheese goblins
If losing body fat is your goal - what is one thing you should focus on.
