Celebrating a Vibrant Future with Laurie Lewis

Today is a special client feature episode of Rock the Podcast with Intermittent Fasting Coach and author, Laurie Lewis! For Laurie, menopause dealt a crushing blow -- brain fog, lack of balance, memory loss, and the sudden gain of 50 pounds of stubborn hormonal fat. She tried everything she knew to feel better, and the methods that worked in the past made no difference.  

After four years of struggle, Laurie stumbled upon Intermittent Fasting and started fasting that very same day. The menopausal fog lifted in less than one week, she had more energy and felt more “like herself.” She lost 51 pounds in 15 months and has kept it off for years! 

Now, at 57-years old, Laurie has turned her personal success into the premier thriving Intermittent Fasting coaching business. As a certified health coach (Institute for Integrative Nutrition) she combines her knowledge of nutrition with deep research and practice of Time Restricted Eating. Laurie guides her clients with a dream come true -- eat the foods you love and enjoy the rest of your life feeling vibrantly well.  

Laurie knows that for entrepreneurs and business owners, focusing on growing your business and your brand also means a need to focus on your body and your health! While Intermittent Fasting may seem overwhelming, Laurie assures you that anyone trying this method can overcome hunger waves. 

Thinking about fasting may also appear to be another stressor in your life, but ultimately it becomes one less thing to worry about. As Intermittent Fasting frees up space mentally, Laurie feels that it will relieve your stress and anxiety. Laurie explains that as we burn fat, we become more alert, more focused, and more vibrant.

Laurie also explains that weight loss is often a hormonal issue. By burning body fat, we are also warding off insulin issues, and possibly even Alzheimer’s. Fasting puts our body into a condition of repair, both metabolic and hormonal repair. 

As a coach, Laurie helps her clients in a two-fold way. A Zoom pioneer, Laurie has been holding group coaching sessions for years over online video conferencing. Laurie leads a group class on how to be a successful Intermittent Faster, and how to avoid weight gain during the holidays. 

Laurie also offers one-on-one coaching sessions for those who want a more customized coaching experience. We as humans have immediate access to an abundance of food that has never been experienced by human beings before. This can be very challenging for many of her clients, and Laurie helps them overcome that stress. She also helps her clients maintain compliance and create a sustainable Intermittent Fasting practice in their lives.

Many of Laurie’s clients focus on the bad - their mistakes. Laurie chooses to focus on the gold, and help her clients piece together the good news instead of honing in on all the bad news. Laurie’s program also stair-steps her clients into an Intermittent Fasting Practice. Over three months, she will help her clients learn to eat in a pattern of time, settle into their fasting sweet spot, and troubleshoot and tweak their practice based on their goals.

After settling into a fasting practice, your body will inform you what foods it wants and doesn’t want, and when it has had enough food. Fasting repairs your appetite system and will allow it to better communicate with you. 

Laurie works with a variety of clients of all ages, both men and women. In particular, Laurie loves awakening women who are going through the massive hormonal shift that is menopause. She wants those women to know that Laurie is right there with them - they’re in this together!
