65: Lindsay Dolashewich (@lindsaydolash) - Playing on Survivor (Season 42), experiences on the show that we can extrapolate to everyday life: weight loss and metabolism, macronutrients + their functions, being adaptable, the power of suggestion...

It was a pleasure having Lindsay on this episode to talk all things Survivor + how it applies to all areas of life outside the show. Lindsay is a fellow Dietitian and nutrition coach who helps people create a healthy relationship with food and their body.

Topics discussed on this episode:

-Lindsay's experience on survivor and path to becoming an RD.

-Weight loss and changes in your metabolism. What happens when you stop eating or chronically under eat? What can you expect + its impact on cognition, performance and fat loss over the long term.

-Macronutrients and their roles within the body. Why all 3 are are important + how to prioritize them on a game like Survivor.

-Negative implications of under-eating and a discussion around the idea of 'survival mode'.

-Importance of being adaptable. How to respond when things don't go according to plan.

-The power of suggestion. Pushing beyond what you think you're capable of. Breaking through self-imposed limitations and getting comfortable with being uncomfortable.

-Rapid fire Q&A on all things Survivor and Lindsay's experience on the show: camp life, hygiene, Jeff Probst, life after getting voted out etc etc.

+ so much more in between.

I loved this conversation and I know you will too (even if you don't watch Survivor).
