À propos de cet audio

 Welcome! Each episode of Wellness While Walking addresses the real health concerns you're facing: • metabolism shifts and blood sugar spikes/weight gain • establishing sustainable habits despite crazy-busy schedules • adapting movement regimens (featuring walking!*) to work for you… in a fun way! • implementing doable nutrition approaches that work with your midlife body and life Hi, I'm Carolyn, a Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach of almost 20 years. I was a health-rejectionist! I didn't think it mattered what our lifestyles were like – I even doubled down on this approach, working in the ultra-processed foods industry for a decade (and gained a lot of weight and was fatigued all the time, but I didn't connect the dots!) But then I got very sick. And my young children did, too. I started to open up to the idea that what we ate, how (if!) we moved, how we slept and more – how it did matter! I "walked back" my chronic disease diagnoses and my kids healed. After over a decade of health coaching people in their midlife years, I also noticed another trend – that of extremes! Folks rejected things like walking and eating largely whole foods for their more intense counterparts, like running and "eating clean." I knew that I needed to fight this, because there are lots of health-conferring points in between on the spectrum, and I'm all about capitalizing on the low hanging fruit by taking small steps that we'll actually do and enjoy! I do think we need to fight societal norms that leave us unhealthy – we call that "walking against traffic" – but this can be a moderate, doable, fun and effective path! Getting this word out to the wider audience beyond my clientele led me to introduce the Wellness While Walking Podcast in January of 2020, and we've been going strong since! I hope you'll join me, Health Coach Carolyn, for Wellness While Walking—your 30-minute movement companion that delivers research-backed strategies for weight management, metabolic health, healing chronic conditions and extending your healthspan in a motivating, compassionate format! Whether you're seeking accountability for consistent action, clarity on conflicting health advice, or gentle guidance for aging vibrantly, Wellness While Walking meets you where you are with understanding and actionable solutions. By the end of each episode, you'll feel physically energized, mentally renewed, and equipped with clear next steps—having moved, learned, laughed, and found the motivation to take the next meaningful step on your health journey! (*Did I mention that we play a beep halfway through so you know when to turn around if you're walking while listening?!) Today is a terrific day to start so press "Follow" and then "Play," and let's do this, together!2024 Entraînement physique et mise en forme Hygiène et mode de vie sain Mise en forme, régime et nutrition

    328. The Health Lessons My Mom Left Us + A Belly Fat Reduction Tool
    Apr 22 2026
    What did a health-conscious woman get wrong — and what can her story teach us about living longer and better? In the first half of this episode, I share a personal look at mom's health journey: what went well and what didn't, and I celebrate her being a pioneer in the work of making healthy lifestyle changes. And then we'll also tackle belly fat. Specifically, the kind you can't see — and a tool that makes it visible. If you've ever wondered whether your daily choices are quietly working against you, this episode will give you a way to find out — and some surprisingly simple shifts that don't require changing what you eat at all!

So this month, for National Foot Health Awareness Month, we're giving our feet the attention they deserve. A dermatopathologist shares the dos and don'ts that keep walkers walking — from the soap brands to avoid to the post-shower timing window that makes all the difference for your foot care regimen to the practitioners we want to consult, and more. Get it right to keep walking and living well! LET'S TALK THE WALK! Join here for support, motivation and fun!

Have a question for Dr. Schaefer? He kindly provided his contact information: drschaefer@balancehealth.com Dr. Schaefer on LinkedIn Additional information from Dr. Schaefer: For all inflammatory conditions: Drug rash, allergic contact dermatitis, psoriasis, lupus, tine pedis, erythrasma/pitted keratolysis (providers can use woods lamp to diagnose) it is important to seek care early so a biopsy can be done and the correct diagnosis made with the appropriate treatment plan being designed. Regarding SPF: the physical (mineral) blocks are preferable because the block a wider spectrum of the light including UVB and are less irritating especially for sensitive skin. And they don't cause a problem for our coral reefs. Zinc oxide is ok for most. For patients suffering from melasma, titanium oxide is another step up. Calluses build in response to external pressure. Adjusting footwear and habits should come FIRST. A general "clean up" of calluses at the nail salon is not recommended. A gentle approach while keeping some protection from the cushioning callus is recommended if the inciting stimulus remains. Also, the cuticle (little skin fold attaching the skin to the nail where the lunula is (white crescent) is super important to seal the nail unit from bacteria crawling in.
