Ep. 86: How to Help Your Husband Get on Board with Healthy Eating with Phil Birt (ENCORE)

One of the questions I get asked a lot is how to get your husband on board with adopting a healthier diet and lifestyle.

At the end of Season 1 of the podcast I decided to interview my husband Phil to get is take on how women can encourage their husbands in this area, and this episode has been the most downloaded episode EVER!

This summer, we’re bringing the episode back for a little encore and I hope it’s encouraging to both you and your husband!

My husband isn’t a chiropractor, he wasn’t raised eating all organic foods and definitely didn’t eat that way in college (guess what – neither did I!)

But this man is 100% on board with healthy eating and living a healthy lifestyle. He is truly a wealth of knowledge, and I joke all the time that Phil could teach seminars on health and still have more to talk about.

This lifestyle we’re living together is something he adopted when we were dating, and we have learned a lot and changed a lot over the past several years we have been married.

We continue to learn and grow in health together as a unified team, which I’m so thankful for, and it’s our heart that you and your husband can be encouraged by this podcast and hopefully start conversations where you can begin the process of becoming unified in the health decisions you make for yourselves and your family.

Sponsor Spotlight: Beautycounter

Did you know that the personal care industry has very little regulation in our country?

Companies are allowed to include known toxins in their products – ingredients that are linked to hormone disruption, fertility issues, cancer and more.

And they aren’t required to disclose these ingredients with you. Sounds wrong, right?

I have been aware for a number of years that our personal care products don’t have enough regulations in this country to be called safe.

I’ve known I needed to switch my products and throw away some of the more toxic things, but my problem was that I couldn’t find products that worked well!

Everything I tried left my skin feeling dry and my makeup looking like I hadn’t put anything on after 10 am.

It was a real problem and I wanted to give up trying to find good and safe products…that is, until I discovered Beautycounter!

Beautycounter is committed to a health and safety standard that goes well beyond what’s required by U.S. law.

They’ve banned the use of more than 1,500 questionable or harmful chemicals through their “Never List”—all while ensuring their products perform and that they’re as indulgent as any other luxe shampoo, lipstick, or oil in the market.
