Put on your geek glasses and let's dive in together! Protein is the most important macronutrient in your diet. But most people do not get enough of it every day. Protein affects your blood sugar levels, every hormone in your body, ALL of them, your body's ability to heal and repair, and its capacity to build and maintain muscle. Adequate protein is ESSENTIAL to healthy aging. How do you know how much protein you need every day? How do you get that amount? Listen in as I share the answers to these and other common and relevant questions about protein. Oh! And I totally get off on at least two tangents...one about our broken medical system, and the other about hidden eating disorders in young women. This episode came from this week's Peace, Health, and Joy Incubator call. A client was experiencing blood sugar spikes at night, anxiety during the day, and slow healing from a recent fracture. Listen in to hear her improvements after less than 24 hours of changing WHEN she got in her protein. Because yes, timing matters.

Who do you need to share this episode with? (The Peace Health and Joy Incubator is a 9-12 month holistic wellness transformation program that I launched in March of 2020. Since that time, twenty women have come through the program. Some have reported that it saved their marriage. Some have reported that it saved other relationships in their lives. All have reported improvement in their overall sense of well-being and a closer relationship to the Lord through experiencing the Holy Spirit in this program. I typically open enrollment once or twice a year. Reach out if you'd like to be notified when I open the doors again.)

I believe 2025 is going to be an AMAZING year. And candidly, AMAZING can be good...or bad, can't it? But for it to be the good kind of amazing, I believe God wants you to know that you are powerful.

Not necessarily the kind of powerful that the world may recognize, with titles, accolades, riches or worldly success (although there's nothing intrinsically bad about those things) but rather the kind of powerful in which you are operating in your God-given spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. Not in fear. Not in victimhood.

Listen in as I share about why I believe this year will be the good kind of amazing. And reach out to me on social media or at diannawallacend@gmail.com to receive the recorded masterclass on Becoming a Powerful Woman in 2025.

"Is it really a thing?" I was recently asked about the connection between our blood type and the kinds of foods we eat. In my "humble but accurate" opinion, it is indeed a thing. Over the past several years, in my personal life and as a practitioner, I've confirmed the blood type diet as valid, meriting at least consideration, if not implementation. In this episode, I share a "30,000-foot overview" of how your blood type affects your food choices, activity preferences, and even your immunity...or autoimmunity. I reference two books for further reading on this topic. Eat Right 4 Your Type by Dr. Peter D'Adamo (written from an evolutionary worldview, just skip the first few chapters if you like) Blood Types, Body Types, and You by Joseph Christiano (written from a worldview more aligned with my own)
