[05:00] About Shay Rowbottom
- Shay’s mother was very conscious of sugar products and knew
that low-fat products were not ideal.
- At age eleven, Shay became a vegetarian. For four years, Shay
did not eat meat (or vegetables)! Her meals consisted of bagels and
pizza. At age fifteen, Shay was sick and sluggish.
- Shay’s immune system was compromised – she had a permanent
cough. On top of this, she had acne, digestive problems, asthma,
and eczema.
- Shay saw a doctor who promised she would cure her health
issues. The first thing she did was put her on a strict diet of no
gluten, dairy, or eggs. Plus, Shay was prescribed breathing
exercises. Within two weeks, Shay’s asthma was gone.
- “My body runs best without carbs.”
[13:50] Eating Fats and Organ Meats
- Organ meats were a total wake up call for Shay. We are not
supposed to be eating muscle meat. The heart and liver are where
the nutrients are. Beef is delicious – she eats 100% grass-fed
pasture-raised red meat.
- “I’m a beef girl.”
- All the minerals are in the organ meat. Shay loves the beef
heart.
[16:45] Problems with the Vegan Diet
- The commitment is so damaging. In one month, you will feel
amazing and decide to commit to it for life.
- When you start craving meat, your commitment will make you
ignore the signs of your body.
- When you commit, it makes it so hard to get out of the
lifestyle.
- Anytime you define yourself with a diet; you put yourself in a
box.
- If you eat the right animal products, you won’t be contributing
negatively to the environment.
- Any extreme is not good. People get too caught up in the
lifestyle. Most vegans will return to eating meat in their
lifetime. Your genetics will determine how long it will take for
you to get sick.
[23:20] Alcohol Cleanse
- Shay did one month with no alcohol. She never felt better!
Then, Shay extended her cleanse to four months. It was such a
pleasant experience, and she ended up changing her relationships
with alcohol.
- Sobriety also helps with health.
- Keto and wine are no fun! Alcohol will raise your glucose and
knock you out of ketosis.
[27:55] Bad Health Trends
- The food in the United States isn’t really food. We all go to
these restaurants and eat these foods that aren’t real.
- These foods are killing us slowly. We are a depressed society –
we have a lot of issues with unresolved mass trauma. It has created
a strong culture of addiction.
- “We don’t make it easy for people to heal.”
- At the end of the day, we can blame the system. However, we can
also blame the market. Money speaks, and our dollars are buying
sugar.
[31:00] Vegetable Oils
- Find restaurants that don’t cook with vegetable oils. If we
change where we put our dollars, then we can make a big
difference.
- Tell restaurants you aren’t going to eat foods with vegetable
oils. Create your own life.
- When you love and respect yourself, you don’t want to put
harmful foods in your body.
- “People are sick and tired of being sick and
tired.”
[33:50] Self-Love
- A lot of us get away from our intuition as a kid. Shay trusts
her gut. She listens to it and follows her gut and knows how to set
boundaries.
- Shay still does the breathing exercises that she learned as a
kid.
- Plus, Shay is easy with herself and forgives herself
often.
[35:20] Get on LinkedIn
- Shay got on LinkedIn to attract leads to her business.
- LinkedIn is the best platform to reach educated people with
money. Plus, it gives the most generous reach with video content.
You’ll get the cheapest views with the most educated audience.
- Shay coaches Ben on LinkedIn.
- Check out Shay’s
Linkedin!
