Social Distancing can be your opportunity to build a strategy to prioritize the important things in life and really understand your “Why”. My guest on this episode is Dustin Thibodeaux, owner of Tailored Flow, a holistic lifestyle coaching service based on nutrition, fitness, and so much more. We talk about our origin story at CrossFit 808, how nutrition can be foundational to living a full life, the distractions that are holding people back from their true potential, the ingredients to finding your true self, and so much more.
Summary
- Dustin “Thibs” Thibodeaux is the founder of Tailored Flow, a 10-week group program that uses easy steps to shift your eating pattern to the most nourishing and wholesome foods for your optimal lifestyle. The Tailored flow philosophy is based on an Ancestral eating style. This consists of eating the most nourishing and wholesome foods, just like our ancestors did for thousands of years. Whole foods are what they ate, and we should too for optimal health and fitness. We used to hunt and gather all of our food. To be successful, it required peak performance, physically and mentally. They achieved peak performance by eating plants and animals consisting of meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruit, nuts, and seeds.
- Some highlights from this conversation:
- Don’t ignore your nutrition. You can’t outtrain a shitty diet.
- Building a sound nutrition plan shouldn’t be intimidating. There is a ton of misinformation out there, so find a coach that can filter out the noise and help you along your journey.
- There are a lot more trainers than coaches out there. Find the right coach that will take the time to understand your goals and help you achieve them. This is a marathon, not a sprint.
- Night time routines are important to quality sleep. Don’t see this as missing out on anything, but rather as a deliberate “warmup” to your recovery so you can be ready for tomorrow.
- Vulnerability isn’t a weakness. It is a strength of a genuine leader. The ability to use self-awareness to constantly elevate yourself, your team, and your community is an important ingredient in optimizing your lifestyle.
