Hey everyone!

This week on the podcast, we have my good friend, Minakshi Dhanvada @fitmomminzi sharing with us what it means to implement practical, sustainable strategies for eating and movement (particularly for women of Indian and South Asian Descent).
Discover healthier ways to cook your favorite homemade South Asian foods, and most of all, say hello to learning how to navigate the inevitable pressure and pushback from family and friends to overeat, clean your plate, "eat for the baby" etc

Minakshi is a health and mindset coach and a certified personal trainer with a focus on the South Asian community. She believes in empowering women by helping them understand how to nourish their bodies and include movement in their lives to feel their best selves. She also believes in a non-diet approach to fitness and nutrition. Her goal is to help women eat cultural foods, enjoy movement and build a good relationship with food. Though originally from India, she lives with her husband and 2.5-year-old in beautiful Colorado.

Some key takeaways from today's episode:


👉🏼Fitness, nutrition, and health needs to feel good. Make "feeling good" your priority at all times.

👉🏼Don't buy into the fitness and nutrition myths and hypes - do what works for you and your body type. When in doubt, check with your doctor and fitness professional.

👉🏼It's okay to say no and not give in to family pressure around weight, pregnancy, food shaming. Only you know your body best. Only you know what feels good for you.
