This one's for all my online (or aspiring) entrepreneurs. My fitness coaches, online therapists, somatic babes, energy workers... there's a solid chance, especially in the fitness space, that the mentor you paid thousands of dollars taught you next to nothing about branding.

Why Beliefs Become Things and How to Start Unpacking the Limiting Beliefs that Keep You Stuck | with host Emily Duncan

There's this old phrase that "thoughts become things." And I don't think that's fully true. I think beliefs become things, largely because our actions are heavily influenced by what we believe. If you don't BELIEVE you have the potential to be a healthy person, why would your actions reflect that, you know? Today we're diving into a framework I've used to help identify and work through limiting beliefs in my own life so you can potentially do the same. Disclaimer: this is in no way medical and/o

The "Big 3" of Branding and Why You Should Build a Brand, Not a Business | with host Emily Duncan

2 years ago, I made one of the best decisions I've ever made - rebranding my fitness company after 5 years of business. I was scared that rebranding so "late" in the game might hurt our brand recognition, but not only did it absolutely not do that, but shifiting from being a business to being a true brand, and emphasizing what I now refer to as the "Brand Big 3" - Values, Vision, and Vibes, we attracting a stronger ideal client base and community, have more cohesion in every level of the busines

I firmly believe that even the most devoted and resolute of us go through times + experiences where we stray from our authenticity AND our personal standards.

On today's episode of EMBody Radio, I had the pleasure of sitting down with my good friend Nick Komodina. In a world full of people who aren't who they portray themselves to be online, Nick is the absolute opposite of that. I’ll allow Nick to introduce himself, but if there’s anything I can say about him, it’s that he’s not only who he portrays himself to be online, he’s a lot more than that as well. We get into a lot of deep shit on this episode, and I really feel like you’re going to walk away

I've been through a lot of weird health complications the last couple of years and tried a lot of different therapies.

Social media essentially runs our current world... And I don't really think it's going anywhere. To be honest, there are a TON of positives to social media! But, put it in the wrong hands, and it can go south reeeeeal quick. It gives anyone with a smartphone/computer/tablet the ability to speak freely, without filtration or regulation. That can be a breeding ground for misinformation, especially in the fitness industry. I don't know about you, but there have been many a time when I found myself
