4:31 Thanks Angela, happy to be here. Yes, well, you mentioned something about all sort of colitis at the age of five. Goodness, that had to be really difficult for you. I had all sort of colitis at the age of seventeen and eighteen years and. It was devastating. It had to be difficult for you. Yeah, it was. I mean there was a lot of painful, that's for sure. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Yeah. It's not something people at five years old are usually diagnosed with, and yours at seventeen was pretty young too.

5:14 People don't get diagnosed with that like until they're late thirties or forties. And what I did find out was that it was related to inflammation. So I'm excited to finally, you know, know the truth. I mean, I suffered desperately, and I know others that are out there they are suffering also, you know, with a lot of pain and different things. And so we'll talk about that more. But your plans incorporating whole fiber rich and anti inflammatory foods like oats, beans, flax, and healthy fats like avocado into the diet. You also recommend reducing sugar and refined carbohydrates. How's that working out with your clients, you know, especially pushing back with the sweets.

6:10 Sweets and sugar is always a hot topic. Yeah, so all of those things can help with inflammation. And how is it working out with clients? You know, most of my clients come to me, they already know sugar is bad for them. It's a matter of uncovering the why behind the habit of you know, reaching for those refined carbs and sweets. And you know, sometimes that why is like habit related, or it can be stress or comfort they get from eating them. So like digging into that emotional reason why they're reaching for those things.

6:52 Oh yeah, absolutely, And I think there might even be a misunderstanding. Everybody thinks sweets only effect you know, your body and causes diabetes as a whole other issue, but they don't realize that it's causing inflammation, which really brings about multiple diseases are caused by inflammation. You highlight the importance of daily movement, also prioritizing sleep and staying hydrated. Do you treat people with old types and is there an age range? So I treat people with all body types.

7:33 I typically work with driven women in their thirties to fifties. They're usually professionals juggling a lot, dealing with stress and got issues and inflammation. So you know, body type doesn't matter. Mindset is what matters. So I start with my clients like where their body is at today, and every plan is personalized for that person's lifestyle, all stress and the goals they want to reach. That's what guides the approach for their program. Well, you mentioned managing the stress. I hear that all the time from my physician. You have to manage your stress.

8:15 You know, I need somebody to help me understand what that is. Managing stress as a cool component of overall well being and managing physical health markers like cholesterol. What does that mean? Oh exactly, I get that question all the time. So stress affects everything. It affects digestion, hormones, sleep, and your cholesterol. So like when you're under chronic stress, meaning like stress all of the time, which you know. Everyone has stress. You're not going to get through life without stress. So when you're under the chronic stress, your body releases cortisol, which signals the liver to release more sugar and fat into the bloodstream, and that includes the LDL cholesterol. So that's why stress management isn't just like mental health, it's metabolic health as well. So I teach what I call micro call moments, and these are simple resets you can build into your day. So resets for example, like just even two deep breaths before a meeting. I did that before we got on here, and it took like, you know, thirty seconds or a quick stretch between calls. And then

9:47 you know, one thing that's really important today is creating boundaries with your with your device because once you open up your phone, you know, you have all these alerts and those all it can be triggers for. People, right right, I've never had it out all these years. There's a lot. I've never had anyone exactly explain why they kept telling me manage your stress. I never realized it affects you know, cholesterol and all those other things. And then you know, releasing things you know into the body, and especially that cortisol thing. I know about that cortisol that's really is a problem. And that's why you can have you know, the ulcer of colidos and the crones.

10:36 This inflammation just builds up and but I didn't understand what it was. Thank you for yeah, my pleasure, and you know, even taking it just one step further, so stress can cause as much inflammation in your body as food. Well, okay, I'm going to get on it. I'm going to get on and I'm going to start taking a couple of breaths and you know, just you know, touch the floor and then stand up and reach for the sky just a couple of times, just to like calm it down. Yeah. I you know, like I said, I've lived with all sorts of collidis. I know what stress can do, and I know what inflammation can do, and so and you don't want to wait until you get to that point.

11:27 So yeah, it's time to learn how to calm down. And that's what we need to do. You recommend the use of natural remedies like dandelion and green tea to support liver health, digestion, and cholesterol levels as part of the balance lifestyle. Yes, all very important. And you know natural support works best when it's part. Of a balanced foundation. So you know, not using those things is just a quick fix, but you know it's part of your health foundation if you will. Yeah, well I have my dandelion tea and my pantry.

12:10 Oh yeah, yeah, you know, after that battle with colitis and and finding out that all I needed to do was get control of my inflammation. And this native medicine woman told me to drink Devil's Claw and they you know it not only did it calm the cholesterol. From the time I drank it thirty five years ago, I have never had another episode. And I've had my colonoscopies and it's not there. And so, you know, I speak highly and I tell people just do this, you will find the inflammation going away. And it's so. And then of course the dandale. Yeah, and just just a reminder, not all teas tastes good, but keep in mind the sicknesses doesn't taste good either, So just drink the tea and be well.

13:15 So what does Devil's Claw teaste like? It's terrible, It's like the worst, But you just get it down and you can immediately feel the joints you know that feel swollen, in the fingers that feel swollen, and you know, suffering the pain that you're feeling. You feel like immediate improvement. And so and the fact that I saw that happen in my life is just something that I really really really uh talk about on a regular basis. So how do you find define holistic health and why is it important for especially busy professionals.

14:01 Yeah. So holistic health means the whole person. So food, mindset, boundaries, relationships, joy, and nutrition, like it's all connected. So basically you can eat perfectly and still feel awful if your life is out of alignment. M Yeah, getting into balance I think. I think especially professionals, because there's so much demand in so many areas, you don't know how to cut it off. You know, you don't know how to close the door and say, okay, I'm taking my professional hat off. I don't want to hear anything, do anything, and then you start, you know, enjoying, enjoying your time. I've had to do that over the years.

14:49 Just I just consider them as hats. I'm wearing this hat for right now, but I'm going to take it off. I have this hat on for right now, and I'm going to take it off. And when I take my hat off, leave it behind if you if somebody would call, I'm sorry, I don't have that hat on right now. I, you know, maintain that calm and that balance in my life because you know, there are life has a lot of demands just all by itself, and then when you have children, those are demands also, and then you have you know, other things that you're working at. I mean, it's it can get overwhelming, it really can. So yeah, I know, yeah, I never thought about holistic being everything that you're doing. I was always thinking it was okay, I'm eating holistically, you know, I'm taking things holistically, but never thought about just my every day life being part of that whole holistic plan. Yeah, that's just incredible.

15:54 Like health is health does bill into your daily systems. You know, are busy professionals, you know, if you have a sustainable system that gives you more freedom, not restriction, and then you know you're you mentioned like people with kids, and then like it's even like more more things to do, more stressful, and then the kids are looking to the parents, you know for examples. So you know, just making sure the kids know how to eat healthy, you know, to live long, healthy, happy. Lives, right right, don't start them out on all of those carbohydrates and snacks and things that you know, and you know, these days maybe before we didn't have as much information and knowledge, but you can go in and look at products and you can tell it's filled with things that your body doesn't need and it's going to fight you back.

16:56 Because of it. So don't start your your children on all those snow accent and process foods. And I'm sorry, get a cookbook if you don't know how to cook, because you really need to put some whole, wholesome food in your children, you know, so that they can also be healthy. You specialize in anti inflammatory health. What are what are the most common misconceptions people have about inflammation and diet. So most people think inflammation only shows up as like pain or swelling. So oftentimes it actually signals like fatigue, low energy, brain fog, floating. It can even affect like your mood, and also stubborn weight. So these are all signs that your body is under stress.

17:55 Mmm. Wow, boy, you must be reading my mail. You're telling me all the things that are happening. Oh my goodness. You know, like I said, you get just so fixated that this thing here I know is inflammation, but I never think about all those other things being a form of inflammation. Oh my goodness. Were helping me a lot. What they help stop Collective and what is what is the core philosophy. Help style. Collective is my private coaching practice designed for driven women in their thirties and fifties who feel inflamed, overwhelmed, stuck, and they're tired of starting over. A lot of them are dealing with gut issues, low energy, and stubborn weight.

18:56 And then I think you asked the core philosophy, So health should fit your lifestyle and habits that align with real life and not add more stress. Yeah, that's you know, Like I said, I don't think. I know, I haven't and I imagine majority of people out there do not think about health being holistic. They think it's like one little disease that they have, or a disease that they've heard about, or you know, the shops they are taking, the pills they're taking. But they don't realize holistic means incorporating everything a peaceful mind. You know, laughter and or just being angry anger causes can cause inflammation because it does something inside the body. I mean, there's just wow. We have to start thinking holistically about every emotion, every thought, every thing we're putting in our but bodies, everything we're doing with our bodies. It really is head to toe. I used to hear that all the time, head to toe from my mom, but it wouldn't make any sense. Okay, Okay, everything's connected.

20:16 And you know I'm from a holistic standpoint. That's like where I created my C three method, Crystal clarity and calm as the foundation, so we clarify what the body truly needs, and then consistency building steady, realistic habits, and then calm to lower stress so healing can actually happen. M h, well that is that is I'm going to remember the three c's. That's that that really is important. It's like I said, most people don't even break that out. You go to your physician all the time and they tell you your different levels and things like that, and they say, well, you know, you have to stop doing this, you stop doing that, you have to do okay, this is working, okay, but this isn't working. Okay, So that's wonderful.

21:09 But if you don't give people some instructions as to what it is when you say stop doing this because it's you know, causing these problems, then I'm I'm not informed enough to even be able to make the changes I need to make in my in my lifestyle. And I don't know what's wrong with the medical field. They can't add a little more conversation and present a little more knowledge to their patients. Hello, a little more knowledge would maybe cut down the visits. Oh maybe that's what never mind.

21:49 That's where that's where I come in, So help help clients fill. Those habits and learn how to do it. You know, my training is science backed and the programs are compassion led, merging nutrition with behavior psychology and stress regulation so people can actually form those habits that stick. Yeah, and it. You know, we have habits that we've set up in our lives, the problem being they've been bad habits. So just having to change those habits. And I don't think I don't think the knowledge is out there for people to understand. What are some of the bad habits. They're not just eating, there's other bad habits of not like like you mentioned, getting getting the proper amount of sleep and things like that. What do you think about what are some of the habits that people have that they need to change?

22:57 Oh gosh, there's a law some people. And you know what I found is it's usually like emotionally driven the habits, Like you know, some people, they might get glued to the couch and not want to get off, like you know, So then they're living a sedentary lifestyle, not getting movement. But what is that tied to. Maybe they're not happy, maybe they don't have confidence. Maybe, I mean, it could be all different kinds of things going on, you know, getting in a routine of not moving.

23:41 It can be how people manage their stress. Yeah, yeah, And like I said, I don't some people they're just going through the day and they're pretending everything's okay and they're not really they're not facing the fact that they really are feeling stressed and taking the right steps to actually deal with it and manage it, like you have told us, so that they they don't end up now with something even worse and they're ill and they're sick or they're in bed with you know, pain that that that's hard to tolerate. So now you're taking all these medications that cause even other problems that could have been done by just recognizing and just being truthful with themselves. I'm unhappy, I'm upset, I'm angry, you know, they you know, we're uh. Some people were in working environments where they have a boss that is not the friendliest and you know, uses intimidation instead of coaching. You know, their staff and so they're always on edge and they're always you know, feeling afraid and different things like that.

25:03 Of course, you know, it starts with the manager needing some coaching and some training as to that's not a motivating factor for people intimidating them and in fact, it is a form of abuse. So you know, we need to have managers that understand their staff and treat their staff correctly and have a work environment where everybody feels like they're on a team and can safely participate without you know, consequences. So there's just all these different environments that are there. But if they don't tell themselves the truth, they're not going to be able to work with it, right.

25:50 Yeah, definitely, So getting to know themselves better and the mind body connection super important. Yeah, and contacting someone like you to be honest with. Yeah, you said, hey, you know, it takes people time to figure out, you know, what their body is telling them. A question I ask a lot is like, you know, well, when this happened, whatever scenario, it may be, like where did you feel that in your body? But if you're not asking yourself that question, like, it takes time to remember to ask yourself that question, and then to really identify like where you might be feeling whatever emotion that triggered.

26:41 You mentioned that, you sit down and you put together like plans with your clients. How do you help clients co create that personalized action based plan on their unique lifestyles and resources. How do you get them to do that? So I. Use m I, which is motivational interviewing to help clients themselves uncover what actually feels doable and enjoyable to them and their specific lifestyle. And it's like, you can't force transformation, you have to like invite it in.

27:24 So once we figure out you know, their why. And what's the motivating factor or factors behind that, then we start building. I call it habit stacking, so we add one or two small, meaningful habits each week. So that's then by the over six months, imagine what you know, creating one to two new habits each week or over six months, those small shifts completely transform energy, confidence, and consistency. So you know, the personalization is the key part because if people don't enjoy it, you're not going to sustain it.

28:07 So we find what the person enjoys, what would work for them to reach their goals and they're supported through every step of the way. Mm hmm. Well, you know it's kind of you know, sometimes you get just so busy you forget to think about something that you enjoy, you know, something that you enjoy doing, something that makes you laugh, something that makes you smile, something that just totally changes your atmosphere within yourself for the day. Because everyone just they get on that. It's almost like the little gerbils on the wheel. They just get on the wheel and just run over. Yeah. Yeah, and just they're just running the wheel and they forget that, Hey you're a human being. Hey, you're a human being with purpose. Hey you're a human being with goals. Hey, get off the wheel and start doing what really makes you happy. I mean some people, okay, because of circumstances. Yes, you decided that you need to just go get a job so you could pay those bills or you know, take care of that family or things like that. But is that something that really makes you happy? Is that something you really enjoy? If not start thinking about you know,

29:40 what you really would want to be doing if you could, and you can, if you really start thinking about it and putting energy towards it and finding people like you that can help them make those steps and make those decisions and get just get a new life, you know, instead of staying on the wheel because it doesn't make you happy. You're just running as fast as you can, and you run even faster so you don't allow the hurt, the pain, the anger, the frustration, the unhappiness to catch up with you. But eventually you're going to grow older and you're going to feel this crush of all this unhappiness because you have not worked on what really really you enjoy and wanted to do all your life.

30:36 That's just. Wow. What role does an inner self mastery approach play in physical well being? Tell us about what that is? Yeah, so that's we kind of talked to touch on it a little bit. You know with the mind body connection, uh, learning to respond not to react, having emotional regulation and physical regulation and your body listens to everything your mind sets. So it's also it also has to do with self talk and you know, when the mind slows, the body can heal. So going back to connecting, like you know that question, where did you feel this in your body from?

31:32 You know, whatever may have happened, So figuring that out and how to listen to that and then knowing what to do. How do you bridge the gap between wellness and strategy. It work. I always tell clients like, just like you would have a strategy for your business or your career, you need one for your health and life. Energy brings that clarity and focus and without it, you're just reacting. So that's why you know. Together, in my programs, we design the personalized health strategy that aligns with my client's goals, lifestyle, and their bandwidth.

32:19 So it's not necessarily about doing more. It's about doing what matters most to the person and doing it consistently. And people's health deserves as much intention as their success. Hm. That is really interesting. I really like that, Crystal. I never thought about that. I mean, we have our mind, we have our body. I never thought about the fact that the body is reacting to what my mind is saying and sometimes my thoughts probably aren't healthy and they and my body is reacting because my mind is thinking that Wow. So we've got to keep our minds together a little bit. So I've never, like I said, we we I think we've just kind of segment segmented our life and so we think, okay, we got our mind, and then we have our body, and then we have our eating, and then we have our lifestyle, and then we and we don't. We never pulled it all together, and so it hasn't been working now very well for many of us. So it's really nice to know how much my thoughts in my mind really has an impact on what's happening in my body. And you mentioned, you know,

33:52 setting those boundaries and especially work and family and maintaining a healthy life. I never even thought about having a building a strategy for your for your lifestyle and things like that, because you know, those are things we were just never taught. We were just you know, get out of school, go to college, get a job, you know, pay the bills into life. I mean, that's that's what we've been told. We've never been told that you can have dreams, you can work on your dreams, you can do the things that you dreamed of doing with the same energy and succeed and be happy. We just are out there just going through those steps. Go to school, go to college, get a job, buy a house, have a kid. Life's over. And there's more to it. There really is more to it. And I don't think anyone understands that, huh yeah, and yes, maintaining boundaries, I don't.

34:58 I think most of us don't have the courage to say I don't like this. Mm hmm, this is my expectation and I need this to stop or I need to walk away mm hmm. Exect me. Yeah, that's yeah. Hm. Boundaries can be tough. And you know, it's like they're not walls. It's more like they're filters for your own peace. And you know, I kind of I viewed mine as like I look at it as you know, my energy protector, Like, so I know where to set them based on you know what what fills my cup and what empties it or you know what dreams or restores my energy.

36:00 Yeah, definitely, definitely the things that drains you. And everybody knows where those what they're where that is, it's like, what steps do you do to stop that from happening? Is our decisions they have to make. But you just can't let someone drain you, or some job drain you, or something drain you and take away all your energy from what it is that you really would love to be doing, and you don't have the energy left because you've allowed all of these things to just just absolutely suck your life out. Shouldn't be letting letting that happen.

36:44 What's your personal philosophy on food is medication versus you know, taking a bunch of paills for quick fixes. Oh yeah, Well, through my own personal personal experience, food medicine. Food is his hands down medicine. You know, everything that you eat in your body that's communicating something to your body, whether it's good or bad. So it teaches your body safety and stability. So like food is information, depending on what food you're putting in of course, So I focus on nourishment, not punishment, because nobody wants to be feeling that feeling of guilt, you know if I hate something.

37:37 So it's like you can't out supplement or out discipline an overwhelmed nervous system. So tying food into that and those emotional connectors also plays a big role. You are really helping me, and I know you're helping the audience. I do make healthy meals and it's all natural, and I cook myself, but I never thought about food being medicines. I take my teas and herbs, but I never thought the fact food is medicine and it tells my body something when I eat it, or can change how I feel or whatever. I never thought about these things.

38:32 I mean, you're really making us have a real concept as to what we're putting in our body really is important. I mean it's really important. You're really helping me. This is such good news here. Oh good, I'm so glad, Oh my goodness. I mean, I'm going to have a gosh. Okay, there goes all those doughnuts and cakes and pies and chocolate. Now now I hear you feeling like you're gonna be missing something. But what we do, we would crowd out. So strouting out means like adding in the good stuff good enjoy, right, Like I don't tell my clients don't do this, don't do that, but instead we work in the good.

39:28 Which helps with the mindset, and we find what you enjoy that. Is good, right right right? Definitely Definitely what's the most rewarding part of the work you do. Seeing my clients light up when they feel good again. So watching them realize, you know, being healthy doesn't have to be hard. And you know, the moment the woman say I find feel. Like myself again, like that's just everything and brings me joy. Oh yeah, absolutely. Like I said, I've I've got I have bells and whistles going off this like listening to what you're saying. And I actually have a different mindset.

40:18 So even when I'm cooking, I'm going to start paying more attention. Even though I try to put specific things together for specific purposes. Years ago, I had a restaurant. I opened a restaurant specifically for health education, and I would have specific things in my meal and I would explain to you know, the customers that you know, you want to be eating these, and you want to eat this, and this is what organ it impacts, this is what disease that it can can help repair. I mean, just so it was just a really fun time I had, you know, just having Yeah. And so I started learning a lot about foods and how to combine them in which ones are really really helpful and and in fact, you know, I do use food to manage my health and things like that, to the point where I had a doctor drop me because he couldn't give me anything.

41:33 It's like, no, I have tea for that, blah blah blah blah blah. So I finally probably figured out I can't make the money on urch, I need to bring somebody else in. So I dropped me as a patient. So now I have a great doctor. He's a young guy that listens to me and even believes in holistic medicines. And I'm like, wow, he is just great. So it was a good thing. But I love that. Yeah, it's just a learning more and more about all these things. And I always got in the habit if I look on the back and it's got a bunch of words in it that I can't even spell or don't even know what it is. Yeah, I know it's something I don't want to eat.

42:19 That is a great like rule of thumb to follow. Wait, yeah, exactly. Yeah, And most things should only have three or four ingredients. When you got fifteen ingredients there there's something wrong that. You can't even pronounce. You don't even know what they are. That's a chemical. Don't eat it, don't eat it. Don't eat it. And I know, you know, I'll come from an arrow where you know, the women cooked holistic meals because they cook, you know, prepared their meals at home and didn't go out dining. But even when I dine, you know, I check restaurants, I read and see what kind of ingredients on their menus whether or not I'm going to go there and dine because I don't want to be ill. I don't want to be placed on medications and so, and I don't want to make you rich while you're while I'm you know, losing years on my life because of the foods I ate there. So, yeah, what we put in is important. We just don't eat just fill a space. We eat too. What talk to our body? I love you, Let me eat this. You've been ground. Yeah, it's fuel and it shouldn't be you know, hurting your body or you know, making you sick like you said, wake up in your stomach is you know?

43:45 Or you can't sleep all night just because of the different foods you've put in. Really pay attention to what you are putting in your bodies because, like I said, it is fuel and it talks to you. Wow, I got a new attitude. Yes, I do amazing. What do you hope listeners take away from our conversation today. That good health is possible when you simplify and you're not broken, you're just overwhelmed. There's lots of information out there, and you know, clarity, consistency, and calm equals lasting results.

44:32 Yeah, yes, absolutely, So tell me how can listeners connect with you and learn more about Health Style Collective. I am on Instagram at health Style Collective, so business name at health Style Collective on Instagram. And I understand that you're going to be hosting a any training. Tell us about that. Yes, I'm very excited about this. It's my stop starting over Master training happening on December eleventh, so people can come learn how to build healthy habits that finally stick. And it's all about helping women get unstuck and build those habits that actually last so they can let go of that stubborn weight, have more energy, reduce that inflammation.

45:34 Yeah. I actually clicked on some of your exercise videos that you have. Those are tell the audience how they can click go on there. They are fun, they are wonderful, and you just feel like she's in the room with you working out. Tell them about that. Thank you. Yeah. So I post all kinds of things on Instagram. You know, it could either be you know, workouts, mindset, stress relief, reducing inflammation, increasing your energy. So all of that information is on Instagram and sounds like I've already motivated, Angela, I'm so glad.

46:19 So absolutely I'm working out with you. Yeah. And then if people do want to do a one on one health consultation, they can book a free every call at the link in my bio on Instagram. Okay, great. And also you have this book that you have on inflammation, anti inflammation. Tell us where they can get this book so that they can learn about some of the things that they're eating. That's real. It calls on them a lot of problems. Yes, it's super easy. You can just click on my Instagram and the link in my bio you can download the free PickStar Guide from there.

47:08 Yep. Yeah, because like we both have suffered from a problem due to inflammation. And it's kind of interesting because, like I said, it's only seventeen and we were eating very wholesome foods, so I'm not sure how the inflammation. One thing I did learn when I had talk with the woman that gave me the Devil's Claw, she told me not to eat white potatoes because there's an enzyme in it and people aren't aware that can cause the body sees it and wants to attack and can cause inflammation in the body. So not to eat don't eat white potatoes, don't eat you know, white bread and certain and the sugars. But when she told me that, change my diet. Start drinking that the Devil's claw. And when I first got it, it wasn't even when I first found out about it, it wasn't a tea. I was at this conference learning about herbs and plants and things like that, and so she walked up and I told her, I said, you look like my grandmother, and we were just talking and then I told her about, you know, the problem I had, and she explained what I needed to do, and she had a plant. She had the Devil's claw plant. There it to me and she said, you take the leaves off and then also get a little piece of this little little thing root thing that

48:40 was on it and cut it up and make tea out of it. So I had the actual plant that I started using. Yeah, I'm gonna looks claw. Yeah, Devil's claw. Yeah. Well, the pharmaceutical industry actually uses it for steroids. Wow. So I said, oh, so you know the truth about it, and you made a pill, but I don't want the pill because they had me on that. So and so, yeah, it really helped a lot. It doesn't taste great, but even helped me when I was during I had COVID, before they even had medicines for COVID, I drank the Devil's Claw and it kept you know, inflammation from being around my heart and in my body, and so it was it. Really it's one of my favorites. Whenever I feel the inflammation, I'm pretty in tuned to what that feels like.

49:46 Yeah, yeah, thanks for sharing. I appreciate that. Yeah, it's really good. And then I drink a lot of hibiscus tea that is an anti inflammatory to all good. So yeah, it's it's just been wonderful. I really want to thank you for being here today. You have informed us definitely, and I'm looking forward and put some of those great things into practice.
