Project You with Camie Cragg

Life 101 with Dr. Yi Jin

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Fri, 15 Jul 2022 14:57:30 +0000

Dr. Jin a neuroscientist and retired Professor at UC Irvine joined us today for the 120th episode of Project You with Camie Cragg. I really don't want to make this about me but HOLY SMOKES this interview was one of the most profound and relatable talks I have had in a long time. Why? Dr. Jin nurtured my mind and soul through facts of the body, brain, heart which led to an overall health talk. This man touched on topics that I as a fitness enthusiast have been talking about for years minus the medical backing, schooling, and research he has. Sitting there witnessing his giving heart to authentically help people without pushing them down mainstream, traditional-medicine was what was so rewarding! A man who doesn't see you as a number yet a living soul that can be saved, helped, and supported by asking for help, reaching out to know more and being your own advocate! These kinds of people are very rare which is why I know you will be attracted to what his heart, knowledge and soul must share! If you have any interest in just knowing about the simplicity of who we are originally as humans- hunter gatherers, you will love every minute of this episode. From breast feeding, thermo dynamics, sleep, anxiety, blue light, obesity, brain, leaky gut, etc this is a raw conversation about LIFE 101 with Dr. Jin. Xoxo Muah Camie Knapp (Cragg)

The Act of Forgiveness

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 24 May 2022 10:00:00 +0000

Forgiveness means different things to different people. Generally, however, it involves a decision to let go of resentment and thoughts of revenge. The act that hurt or offended you might always be with you, but forgiveness can lessen its grip on you and help free you from the control of the person who harmed you. Tune into today's episode as I guide you through a real story that happened to me moments after our engagement party! It's these moments where I realize, and you might realize, that the devil/evil spirit comes at the times that you least expect them especially when joy is embedded in your heart! It's only because the awakening that I was able to see clearly on what was happening and without a shadow of a doubt I knew my heart was not going to react yet respond in the way my heart felt only because I had forgiven her a long time ago! If I didn't, I truly don't think the blessings would have opened in my life like they did and continue to! Love wins and remember that the act of forgiveness is healthy when it comes to the internal well-being! I don't know that I could have taken any more hurt and pain than I already did- which naturally led me to forgiving her without getting a verbal recognition from the attacker! This act hugely rewarded my health, by lowering the risk of heart attack, improving cholesterol levels, sleep, reducing pain, blood pressure, levels of anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the Real You with Ray Gonzalez

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 26 Apr 2022 10:00:00 +0000

Who are we really, behind the masks we wear on a daily basis? For wealth manager Ray Gonzalez, it took hitting rock bottom to discover The Real Ray G. Having built a prolific billion-dollar practice and become a leader in the industry of wealth management, one might have thought that Ray had it all. At the pinnacle of his 30-year career, Ray couldn't help but feel something big was missing. Ray quickly realized after meeting his lifelong goal of becoming a millionaire that there is more to life than success-- and how so many of the most important parts of life are missing from the most successful people's lives. Tune into this insightful conversation between myself and Ray, where we address his inspirational personal transformation story, his three pillars of success (mental, physical, and financial fitness), addressing trauma, and learning to rediscover your authentic self. Our discussion addresses how Ray and people like him rediscover their inner child and learn to reparent them into happy, successful members of society. Thank you so much for taking the time out to listen to Project You with Camie Cragg, an audience that continues to grow every single day!

Community & Service talk with Bay Equity’s Mike Richardson & Dulce Drakulich

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Wed, 20 Apr 2022 10:00:00 +0000

Community is the reason for doing business for Northern Nevada's highest rated lender online, Mike Richardson! I had the pleasure of sitting down with Mike Richardson and real estate/mortgage expert Dulce Drakulich to better understand the dynamic of running a business and having the heart to do things for the community while meaning it! At Bay Equity they understand that your house is a home and not a loan. They know this because they have always been in the business of caring about their customer's journey, and writing their story right alongside their clients. Being on the mic with them, I soon gathered that this wasn't just a well written mission statement, this was the lifestyle they truly live on a day-to-day basis. I believe this is an extraordinary mindset, especially from business owners and experts in a very competitive business. Mike and Dulce started their careers during the Great Recession in 2007, which was fueled by easy credit, insufficient regulation and toxic subprime mortgages. Tune in to the three of us as they talked business which was very informative, but they spoke more of their "why", their reason and their purpose. I was personally astonished by this internal passion that clearly separates them from the rest in their field! There is a reason why they are the best, and that is because they believe their client is more than a sale. You can feel there is care, love and respect on the other side! Reno, Nevada is honored to have Mike and Dulce of Bay Equity in their corner! I told them both without people like them, change is hard to come by when it comes to community! People need to care in order to have change and these two care...a lot!

Thank you so much for taking the time out to listen to Project You with Camie Cragg, an audience that continues to grow every single day!

International Women’s Day: Evolving for 108 years

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 08 Mar 2022 10:00:00 +0000

It's been 108 years that we have been celebrating International Women's Day as there was a Socialist Party of America whom gathered in a group of 15,000 women to protest against their long hours work, low pay and lack of voting rights in New York City. This movement got women to think beyond what the norm was and 108 years later we are seeing the creative genius absolutely, SOAR. In this episode I share some stories of what it meant to me to start my business 17 years ago in a field that was male dominated. The idea to be a pioneer in the health, wellness and fitness industry seemed too scary yet the grit of my soul and tenacity of my heart didn't reject my drive which was to do exactly that- AS I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE- I have the ability to look around to my great girlfriends, my clients, my family, my acquaintances and see how many women have been their own advocate, their own risk taker to become their better self for them, their community, their family, their workplace, etc. Things we can ask ourselves today as we globally celebrate the drive, the heart and soul of so many women we actually get to ask a sincere question that can only be answered by you_ What makes a great woman? What is special about a woman? What high values of a woman inspires you? What type of woman do you want to be? Tune in as we flow from the heart and celebrate the past and plan for the future!

Checking In

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 01 Feb 2022 10:00:00 +0000

Basic question, "Why would one be compelled to check in with self?" Answer: "Checking in with yourself and assessing your needs helps you to pour into yourself so that you can pour into others. Oftentimes, we check on those around us but neglect ourselves. It's beneficial because it can improve your mood, your energy, your relationships with others, and your productivity. I know it sounds so easy but like I tell my Project C participants, "if it were easy everyone would be doing it!" Which always reminds me of doing things different than what the average would do- or even doing opposite of what you are used to. Lately it's been my part time job checking in with self. Truly admitting that I needed help. Being aware enough that I deserved to heal. Not to mention being the action based human who has adopted all these elements really has been difficult yet that is more reason why I do it! Because if it was easy everyone would be healed, happy and feeling the vibe! I along with YOU deserve to check in and share truth with self which in return will allow us to know ourselves better than any other person in this world- that is kind of exciting right? To be honest don't you know other people like the back of your hand? Can you say that for yourself? We should know us- we should know others - we should be that devoted to check in because we understand that it matters which will keep us aligned in love rather than self-righteousness or status. In a quick thirty minutes I hope it's just enough to bring out that light! I hope it's just enough to decide to NOT be the dangers of the end of times! Let's do and be opposite, individually & collectively. Xoxo, Camie Cragg

Champagne with Ashley at the gym

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Wed, 03 Nov 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Todays episode to me is the epitome of authenticity. Opening your heart to others is not always easy but when it happens - its beautiful and raw. Today a group of women got together to celebrate ourselves, celebrate each other and our shared successes. To spur eachother on and share in love and laughter. Over snacks and champagne we shared some of our most vulnerable moments, deepest thoughts, and unveiled our truest selves. Circled around together we also shared some laughter, some tears and bittersweet 'goodbyes' as we said farewell not only to Season 13 of Project C, but also said farewell to our beloved trainer Ashley. It was an honor and privilege to share memories and well wishes to this amazing woman as she moves on to the next season of her life. We will miss you Ash! CCF and Project C won't be the same without you! Xoxo Camie Cragg

Explain the happiest moment of your life- to be engaged

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 26 Oct 2021 10:00:00 +0000

I literally don’t go a day without thinking of this exact moment where this man got on one knee after he decided I’m the chosen one! I’m the one he will consider everyday! Without pushing, forcing, controlling any of the picture perfect situations they happened because it was supposed to happen! The mature self let the authentic self be seen! I clearly didn’t know that this was the moment-as @wyattherbst said so perfectly “you didn’t know, you were side shuffling to the center of the castle!” I was wearing my back pack, I was ugly crying! This has nothing to do with setting the perfect Instagram social media stage & it never will! That’s why I show my ugly cry to my filter European close lip smile

. On a serious note though- I thought turning forty was enough to celebrate that day! I thought celebrating our 1 year & a half was enough! I thought being in Europe for the first time together at a castle was enough! . @dan.knapp led with his heart holding the ring till he felt the moment! Because he didn’t know- because no one knows unless they feel first! . . He knew my pain but guess what pain is apart of life! He became part of my post pain experience which was re learning- also a huge part of life that will never go away! He became another reason why I love my birthday again! I love the holiday season again! Why I love life again! I had my faith & that’s what kept me ticking then came along another soul to captivate my soul on even levels with the light inside of him that shines strong! . . I never ever stopped believing even when I felt I was at the end & it couldn’t get any worse I just didn’t stop believing! Dan also didn’t stop believing in himself! In me or us! The man of poise & character followed his heart! And here we are together engaged- what that means to me today in this mindset- “we are engaged in one another’s life equally to enjoy the freedom to be ourselves & enjoy the freedom to be a unit in trust & in love- . .

I share the story about the thought & action behind the ring!

Castles & Football: Part 4

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 19 Oct 2021 10:00:00 +0000

That's the good part of an injury, it strengthens you in many ways- which was a thought I had when I walked towards Dan sitting on the concrete steps outside of the stadium. I didn't know how bad the injury was but I knew that it was something considering his cleat and athletic tape were laying on the dirt and the team was on the field moments away from kickoff. Nothing like this can be foreseen- injury, that is, and for that matter there are many emotions and feelings involved. Tune in to today's episode to hear about how the game went and how Dan injured himself before the game even started. No matter what the situation is & I still believe forever is "Everything happens for a reason...EHFAR" XOXO, Camie Cragg

Castles & Football: Part 3

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Mon, 11 Oct 2021 20:25:29 +0000

How exciting I’m recording this podcast from Fredrick-Ludwig- Jahn Sports Stadium here in Berlin Germany getting ready to watch this football game USA vs European All Star Team. Sitting on the USA media line with my computer, microphone and headphones while watching the production of course this game is also something that I love too! As a business owner I do get kind of obsessed with keeping my eyes out for how things are ran- I keep my eyes open the service, the marketing, etc and being over here has been nothing but invigorating! I have been blessed with not only a week of football but the stories in between it all from the team, the running, the subways, the dinners, the coffee, ugh the list just keeps going on!!!!! Let this be more reason to tune in…. I’m present! I’m excited and attempting to hold it all in! Love this life by the choice of being in motion and not waiting for life to approach you- but you approaching life without the motion! It’s all a choice and my choice is to put my feet on the ground and GO!!!!! Cheers from Berlin! Xoxo Camie Cragg

Castles & Football: Part 2

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 28 Sep 2021 18:24:09 +0000

A text from my girlfriend is the tone of my heart over here as I am a living poof of what manifesting your life can prove to you only if you never give up! She says, “I can’t believe you’re there for so long! Yes! This is a dream come true. I just keep thinking about our goals- Lululemon goals and visions on my river deck with Sabrina. You wrote about the castles. I’m doing goals and visions in Nicaragua. People don’t understand how REAL it really is!!! Mine is so similar too! So many things are close to what I wrote and have either happened or are happening!!! Write that shit down and manifest it. It’s not always easy as it unfolds because the path isn’t as we expect it to be … but man, it’s awesome when it all aligns!! Sis, I am so proud of you and so incredibly overjoyed for you!!! #fullheart” It’s so real and my opportunity is now to share the depths of what once was a dream, a thought, an idea gosh really a fantasy for a long time till it wasn’t! Till it became my reality and because it’s my reality it is up to me now to embrace this, engage in this and adore every step! By the power of the mind and tongue along with the believe in the Lord I truly do believe anything is possible! So here is the catch in life! The hidden key among the manifestation of course!!!! The key is there are two rules to follow at all times Rule #1- Never Give Up Rule #2- Never forget rule #1 Dive in with me on a few experiences, stories and also opportunities that have presented themselves over here! I’ll take these series to reflect, share and a way to always have this time bottled up with you! I have some recommendations on behalf of hotels, restaurants and movies that I hope you can watch soon - they were so touching and really got us in the right mindset on our way over! Germany is beautiful and I’m honored to have this chance to share with you! What’s your dream? What your thought? What is your idea? What is your fantasy? Whatever it is I dare you to write in down, label it, believe it and never give up on it! Like Dre said- “write that shit down! It’s more real than you think!” Xoxo Camie Cragg

Castles & Football

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 21 Sep 2021 10:00:00 +0000

The secret to manifesting what you want is to get in alignment with what you want- to feel as though It is already here. The day has come where I and maybe even you can look back and see the power of manifestation! We can only do that if we have a timeline or in better worlds something to measure. For me this opportunity of recognizing the desires of my heart all the way back to fifth grade has lead me to the present moment which is witnessing one of my biggest dreams come true and what profound experience it’s been! Ideas are no longer a “long shot” type of thought instead ideas are possible through the dedication of the power of manifestation and action based motions to never give up on that thought, ever! Well the time has come to reveal my two biggest dreams! One: back in fifth grade I immersed myself in my social studies class report on whatever country we decided at the time. I choose Belgium. From that moment that I turned in my report and did my presentation I had fallen in love with Brussels and surrounding cities in Belgium, so much that I promised myself I would stand foot on that land inside castles between 30-40 years old. Two: being with Dan Knapp for the past year and a half on October 6, 2021 which is also my 40th birthday I have had one major wish and that was to be able to have had watched him play football. I didn’t think this was ever going to happen again yet by the grace of God he has been invited to represent U.S.A vs Germany October 3, 2021 in Berlin. Basic advice- dreams do come true! They come true because you never give up on them! You manifest them and you act as if it’s already happened without any constraints or restrictions. Believe in your ideas and thoughts before you even see them! Tune in to hear the depths of these two dreams as I’ll be recording over in Western Europe happily to share the experiences that I see as being some of the most eye opening and life altering!

Moments Like These

After living in heartache or even living through a year of Covid all it takes is one magical experience to bring you back to a safe, pure and humbled place. Project You with Camie Cragg are just stories, opportunites and experiences in my world in 100% hopes to ignite something in you to honor, love and embrace your journey just as much. The one chance we get is TODAY- so cliche yet very true! We all live or have lived in pain. We all have had a rough go. We all have lived together recently through a global pandemic yet nothing can truly hold us down unless we allow it! This is our new truth! The truth to embody the experience that has been so forgein to us in our lives. The truth is to sign up for something that you have wanted to do forever. The truth is to be challenged to be in a setting and actually lean into it to actualy experience it at the level that is FOR YOU- yet so often we resist because we attempt to control and override! Let that be for your past- Let this new eagerness and excitement settle into your life today because you deserve it! Tune in with me while I share how my love and excitment came back at its highest level! How I noticed it and what I did with this feeling that I have been so eager to experience again and didn't know that it was possible because of how jaded my heart was! xoxoxo Camie Cragg

One Day You Will Be Living Your Deepest Thoughts

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 31 Aug 2021 10:00:00 +0000

We continue to move through this life in happiness, pain, joy, trauma, etc. EMOTIONS and EXPERIENCES will no matter what impact our days and it's up to us to stand in solitude that our thoughts and reactions will lead to our destiny. I ask as you tune in to today's episode that you allow yourself GRACE and the freedom to work through the life that stands before you- We all are moving through, evolving and with all of our power attempting to overcome. This episode is really as simple as that- the simplicity of cherishing the good, bad and indifferent knowing that we individually and universally are all walking this walk- IT'S just a matter of how much of an impact that we are willing to make along the way to the better self.

To Be Seen & To Be Loved

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Wed, 25 Aug 2021 10:00:00 +0000

There are a lot of mistakes I have made in my time like not sleeping when I was tired, not eating when I was hungry or not getting warm when I was cold! It is the cold hard truth in life to be able to look back and see the faults which were parts of self that were weak or in better terms lack of knowledge. Without the hardship, without the challenge or the trails in life I wouldn't have learned how to eat right, how to sleep right or how to get warm- seemed so easy yet easy isn't where the lessons are shared! The lesson is in the challenge which in some cases are voluntarily raising your hand and asking for help. One of my other mistakes in life was wanting so bad to be loved, appreciated and valued by another yet I truly didn't love, appreciate or value at the capacity that I intended for myself! That was a mistake and it is up to me to share with you to not see it as a weakness yet a strength to raise your hand and ask for help. Seek help because you deserve it! You don't need to treat yourself or others poorly anymore! You are destined to be a better human, you are destined for this broken spirit to be healed- it is just a matter of you wanting it. Tune in today to hear exactly what this looks like! XOXO Camie Cragg

4 ways to help with ACCOUNTABILITY in the gym

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 17 Aug 2021 22:15:27 +0000

Whether you want to lose weight, compete in a race, gain lean mass, you have to exercise consistently! And if you want to work out consistently, it’s key that you make your workouts as convenient as possible: The more convenient working out is, the more likely you are to do it. Sounds so easy and simple right? In the same sentence we often ask ourselves why it is so hard to get results in a day and age where you can literally download weight loss programs off the internet for free and where you can follow someone’s diet and exercise plan on Instagram post-by-post but I am telling you it's SO MUCH more than this day & age living. I share with all my clients, "If it was easy then everyone would be doing it therefore we need to buckle down as a team, get educated and motivated to obtain your goals. The process is detailed yet so achievable as long as you trust the process, are action based and have a strong sense of accountability. This episode is to help breakdown the process to obtain accountability first, so then we can be action based about the gym consistency that we dearly want as well! We will go over 4 simple steps that I HOPE will help you create space, time and energy for your goals with the help of being kept "ACCOUNTABLE." XOXO, Camie Cragg

Love in LOVE not in Fear!

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 10 Aug 2021 10:00:00 +0000

How to respond from love and not react from fear in our relationships is crucial to truly experience happiness- How to do that is to reject fear, choose love. This really has been a wonderful piece of advice and I hope it touches your heart. In the same sentence, there are many that believe that there are only two primal emotions in the human being, love and fear, and that we cannot feel both at once. Right? We believe that don’t we? If we believe this we are certain that if light removes darkness then love can remove fear.

The choice to reject fear and choose love can feel like something that only applies to moments of crisis, like when we’re leaving a marriage, starting a new business, preparing to climb the highest mountain you have ever thought of. But in truth, the opportunity to choose love and reject fear presents itself in the smallest moments of life, and specifically, in relationships with those closest to us. Love over fear is a choice every time someone tells us something about ourselves or has an experience of us that we don’t want to hear.

I have loved this over and over as I have a feeling so have YOU! We are being tested and they test is are you going to fold to fear or rejoice in love! You get the choice and it’s a place of happiness to share how I made this pivot in my life once and for all! It was so scary to see myself as controlling and anxious yet, because I have, I am able to see it for what it is and I want to change for the betterment of all of us around!

I choose love and when I love I will no longer do it in fear! It’s beyond my human value- and I will not ever walk down the road again- I choose to not love in fear!?

Do you?

The Truth About Trauma

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 20 Jul 2021 10:00:00 +0000

My trauma taught me more than I could ever imagine! Of course it would have been nice to have lived without the basic blow of chaos over and over again but clearly I was in the biggest seat of tool gathering, lesson teaching, self love that I could ever be in for the betterment of the rest of my Life! Therefore it was fortunate that all this happened where I am today because I know how, who, why, when so much better than I did before! Has your trauma taught you lessons? Do you blame yourself? Does shame hit your doorstep? These are all things that are unanswered till they are answered and the only way to answer is to make sure you're on your way to waking up which is usually a very painful and scary experience! We have our world around us condoning the “stay asleep” mentality! Stay comfortable. And whatever traumatic event you are in your life it’s “normal!” No it’s NOT normal- we have normalized this, society has, Hollywood has and if I can say anything I’m saying it now…. Wake up! Get uncomfortable and stop repeating the trauma dynamics! Tune in as I reveal what the truth is about trauma and what it taught me! Xoxo Camie Cragg

What is it that you want in the end?

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 13 Jul 2021 10:00:00 +0000

We all have the choose to live the life we are either destined for or settle to be mediocre. In the midst of the challenges, storms, hustle, constrictions it’s important that we all know this constant state of chaos can bring true exhaustion to ones life! Therefore we should really strive to feel harmony in our life- even when time feels like it’s a huge constraint! We must ask self is it really? Probably not- as humans we are so good about procrastinating which sets us back from truly living the life of destiny!

It’s a sign, right now, that you ask yourself a truthful question, “Are you living your best life, your mediocre life or your procrastinated life?” With an honest answer comes honest efforts and YOU deserve it!

As an individual, as a couple, as a group of friends or as a family we desire certain things because they most likely come from the gut-the heart and require action! So since Dan & I decided to be damn adventurists from the beginning we promised one another to live, love and endure the simple life getting us away from the hustle 24/7 which is what I was used to ultimately!

….We drove to Montana to visit Dan’s best friend, his beautiful wife, two girls, two of their friends (now our friends) and others that we were introduced to along the way! Feeling nothing but harmony- like music what makes you feel good is what you listen to as well believe is the same with living life- do the things that make you feel good while making memories. I figured out how happy I am knowing we live in a world where there is a Montana- my spectrum is now illuminated more because of this magical trip and questions that were answered along the way!

The real talk & the eagerness to shout out "MORE POWER TO YOU" for being the amazing human that you are. We are all in development, right? Figuring life out with the lessons, the seasons and the challenges that we face daily. No matter what we face we must do it with dignity, understanding and poise- if we are figuring these things out currently this is something to aspire to be like deep within!

Real talk that life happens, it gets stuffy and messy! We are not meant to be perfect yet if we are in a stance to take life on headfirst, we can face it with a humble heart to see ourselves in the mirror to be in progress.

I am telling you from firsthand experience change is difficult- it is rewarding but we all know it brings challenge which then all the sudden leaves us feeling cold, frigid and at times not prepared. That is what the winter months feels like in reality so if you are faced with a lot, change, uncertainty please recognize this as a time to hunker in with ambition to see the blossom on the other side.

Career, relationships, family, friends, financials, etc, all take work, they take time, and they take discipline which are all hard concepts to grasp when you just want things to work out for you- however they will once you are willing to embrace that earning your stripes through the winter months (hard seasons) are worth every bit of discomfort! Enjoy the journey and help someone out by sharing the hard work that you see them giving towards life! It hurts sometimes to go go go go and feel little to nothing in return- humans and their caring hearts can be the cure to hopelessness! Give someone a shout out today- show your appreciation and present to them their worth- stormy days, weeks and months can be difficult yet manageable knowing that support (the light) is nearby!

Tune in for the real talk.... Muah Camie Cragg

Hot & Cold Therapy

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 08 Jun 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Becoming more of your own advocate is a daily practice. Taking in things that you hear of and doing your own research, deep research is the start of being clear of what you need versus what others think you need. Getting educated, getting counseled, getting advice-- even a second opinion maybe a third opinion to gain more knowledge so you can be action based if whatever it is that you are searching out serves you! For instance, you might have heard things your whole life that you never really knew the true facts about or was it a myth? You don't know till you know, and this is a pressure point to make that call in your life! Figure out the facts, the why, the reasons to why things in our life are there to bring us to a better state especially when we are seeking out to be consistent with them! Topic of conversation today is contrast therapy- ever heard of it? It can also be referenced as hot & cold therapy- this topic is so exciting for me especially as an athlete and furthermore rewarding if we truly know why we should engage in this therapy athlete or not the science behind this therapy is tremendous. True hard facts on hot & cold treatment:

Cold treatment reduces inflammation by decreasing blood flow.
Heat treatment promotes blood flow and helps muscles relax.
Alternating heat and cold may help reduce exercise-induced muscle pain.
Never use extreme heat, and never put ice directly on the skin

Lastly some of the benefits of contrast therapy include:

Improved Circulation.
Decreased Swelling.
Reduced Inflammation.
Improvement in Muscle Strains.
Increased Range of Motion.
Reduced Muscle Soreness.
Increased Energy & Alertness.
Elevated Mood.

Tune in today to understand a few things that I heard so much about and became so eager to know exactly what the body's natural filtration system is and how it works. I currently like to know how to remove toxins from the body and what is inflammatory towards our bodies- from there they work hand in hand to have a replenished system all because you care enough to know the cold hard facts and be willing to apply them in your life!

Celebrating 17 years with Vulnerability, Passion, Humility & Love

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 01 Jun 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Celebrating 17 years of being in a profession that I absolutely love, and has been everything and more than I ever imagined. Tune into this very special and revealing episode as I express with humility, vulnerability and love surrounding some of the most major decisions in my life and how they lead me to where I am at today.

Often, we get so deep in our head that we don't take time to really relax, get quiet and listen to the desires of the heart. It was when I did that get quiet in the beginning of my career and also over the past two years that the answers were revealed. I knew that I was passionate in fitness, I knew that I loved people, I knew that I desired connection. However, now that I know all that has been experienced and the opportunities that have been gifted, I truly must say that everything happens for a reason.

At the end of the day, one must know that whatever it is that you choose to do with your life- please be certain of one thing and one thing first-

Are you happy?

Does it bring your joy?

Do you crave it every day?

If your answers are yes, then of course you are in the right spot. If they are no, there is a strong possibility that you might want to explore and discover the life that you are destined for which is to also find bliss in your you do.

Thank you with all my heart for the support, advice, laughs, smiles, workouts, chats, etc along this amazing journey of fitness.

Cheers to another year of fitness, health and wellness all combined with the mind, body and soul!

Keeping the Authenticity in Your Business

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 25 May 2021 10:00:00 +0000

I believe this real answer is in your heart when questioning how I keep the authenticity when building my business- just like anything else we strive to follow our hearts as that is our gut, that is our intuition & where the passion resides! I passionately listen and chat with people every day which is one of the key factors to building an authentic business as so many people reveal their risks, their values, their experiences and there is no better what to feel true motivation & inspiration other than those close people around you sharing what works and what doesn't. These are also opportunities to evaluate where you are and where you want to go with questions like? Am I being real? Am I being charitable? Am I being consistent? Am I being responsive? But then we get even deeper by expressing how hard you are willing to work to earn your stripes. I remember a guy by the name of Ford commenting, "wow, the owner of the gym is also cleaning the gym!" I smiled back and said, "Yeah buddy, it's an honor to keep my hands on the place that I love so much- it wouldn't feel right any other way, and keeps me grounded." I drove home that night and remembered feeling a sense of gratitude from Ford's comment- he expressed himself to remind me that this is part of keeping it real with the business- this is part of keeping the business authentic to the core. I ask for help please believe me, yet it is never beyond me to go deep to the roots and stick to the plan with my hands on! Tune in to today's episode as we reveal two other business savvy women in the community of Reno share a way they are staying authentic to their business in the chapter that they are in. Organically these conversations happened because my heart always is in position to listen, share, love and support! There are always more ways to stay authentic to your business. Do the little things, things that would melt your heart- go out of your way from time to time to share and show gratitude! Muah Camie Cragg

When one is ready to reach out for a nutrition consult, I know that they are at their end's wit in the chapter of their current life! They are wanting the change and do believe that food is the medicine just need direction to actually apply.

To one nutrition can be very intimidating as there is never a day where we can't learn something new- for me it become exciting to know what we are ingesting and how does it benefit me as a human per our blood type, blood test results, performance levels etc- OUR FOOD is our MEDICINE!

Why would you even consider a nutrition consult & what are some benefits?

The Challenge & Blessings of HEALING!

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 04 May 2021 10:00:00 +0000

I remember hearing my dad say, “Don’t pick your scabs, your healing!” Of course I didn’t see the depths of what he knew it as, yet it didn’t take long to understand the pain of a cut and how quickly you can get to the stage of a scab — shortly you will be on your way to not feeling that pain that you felt in the beginning!

However it doesn’t mean that it’s easy! Instead once the cut is done, the bleeding begins the journey is all so authentic to each cut!

How deep was it?

How severe was it?

Did it need stitches?

Did it need a band-aide?

Did you clean it out?

Did it get infected?

All the questions and or reactions to the cut is how well it will heal.

Low and behold I didn’t know that life was like that till it became very apparent to me! We get cut- we get sliced open- we get chopped up sometimes in life but by the Grace of God we have the chance to respond correctly or more correctly as time goes on to heal!

Healing is just as challenging if not more than the actual event where the cut happened! Lots of treatment, lots of love, lots of cleaning up to do yet without it becomes gross, disgusting and infected and no one has time for that.

Sit back and tune into our episode today where we find a place in our life where we got cut and accepted the healing process! What did that look like for you? What would you have done different and how will you respond next time to a cut in order to heal properly.

As I share another thread of my journey I pray that you take the wheel and also explore what that looks like for you and how will you finally accept the challenge to slow down and not pick the scab! Instead let the events happen in order to find yourself a healed wound!

Hint hint! We have all been wounded yet it’s how quickly we can pick up our cleaning tools and nurture this special event called “to heal” is to become!

Breaking Habits, Patterns & Conditions

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 27 Apr 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Breaking habits & patterns starts with noticing what you do, how you react & what condition you are in. When one sees themselves in the mirror for maybe the first time and realizes that human isn’t the “authentic” self it’s a perfect time to raise your arm and admit you need help! You need more tools! You need change!

When the options seem so slim to find recovery from pain, hurt & trauma that have oh so easily built in a condition know for a fact that this thought of yours is NOT TRUE! That is your thought and that is not you heart! Follow your heart when seeking the shift in forming new patterns Nd habits! Pull from the gut! And walk into the uncomfortable situation which is change because you deserve it once and for all!

It can be any part of life that needs assistance; love life, physical life, spiritual life, career life, emotional life, etc- you make the call by

1) looking in the mirror

2) noticing the habits & patterns

3) declare that the most important relationship you can and will have is with yourself.

4) devote a daily practice to healing

5) forgive yourself that you left you out of the equation

Tune in to today’s episode by putting yourself in your shoes as you would so graciously for your friend- be a friend to you- change the habits and patterns by honoring the soul that lives inside of you!

Planning To Live Your Life Your Way

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 30 Mar 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Many people feel as if they're lost in this world. They work hard but they don't seem to get anywhere worthwhile.

A key reason that some may feel this way is that they haven't spent enough time thinking about what they want from life, and haven't set themselves set-desired goals.

I truly believe that goal setting is a powerful process for thinking about your ideal future, and for motivating yourself to turn your vision of this future into reality.

The process of setting goals helps you choose where you want to go in life. By knowing precisely what you want to achieve, you know where you have to concentrate your efforts.

You'll also quickly spot the distractions that can, so easily, lead you to be in full procrastination mode!

Learn about different SMART ways to set goals.

Ask yourself questions like why would you set goals, how are you going to achieve them, and in what areas of your life.

I’m so excited to be with you and immerse ourselves in things they need to be talked about, need to be written down and need to be accomplished!

Why!

Because the desires of your heart are real yet they only become real with action behind them!

Challenge Yourself to Measure Your Growth!

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 23 Mar 2021 10:00:00 +0000

As I sit here in Maui I’m forced at these moments to measure my growth because time has passed and when time passes for a duration of time we have the amazing opportunity to be present enough to feel where we are today!

2004 was my first visit to Maui which was pre kids, pre marriage, pre career, etc.... my life as I knew then was actually on a path of revealing it self by the decisions I was making.

Where I was then in 2004 in comparison to where I am at today 2021 almost seems light years away yet I would not know this unless I was able to be alert & aware of life as I knew it, to life as I know it.

Tune into today with me as I have a drink with you, literally a Mai Tai in hand and relaxed beyond relaxed sharing the life that I remember, the life that I desired to, the life that I am living.

It’s your time to focus on your challenge which is to be so present in your moment now in hopes to have the awe ha moment which makes our whole world turn to be exactly where you were meant to be!!!

Happy- joyful- blissful and yes a little uncomfortable in there, here and there, which forms a better you anyways!

I’m excited to share hope with you and since there is hope present in your life there is light and since there is light there is hope- let that settle in and enjoy the challenge of measuring your growth!

You are loved- and cheers to us! Our life becoming and no longer stalling!

Getting familiar with you, with the help from DEXA SCAN & Full panel blood test

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 16 Mar 2021 10:00:00 +0000

A friend texts me to share her amazing therapy session. Her therapist finals words to her were these before she left, “You have manifested precisely what was important to you. Be sure to do regular self check ins, be sure you are manifesting what you really want and not what you think you want. And there’s nothing wrong with hindsight. Sometimes we don’t know what we want until we don’t have it- that’s wisdom and experience. Use it.”

It truly doesn’t matter what you put in front of this statement- the bottom line is that there is hope when you believe to the core that what is important to you will come true with hard work! Hard work calls for effort and effort calls for finding a way- through asking for help, applying what you know, making things happen, setting goals, using your sources around you, etc.

When it comes to knowing self we must take the effort everyday to become! A lot of people don’t even know what they are made up of, blood type, blood tests, Dexa scan- a few ways to know you a little bit more which also makes setting goals so much more obtainable when we know who we are and what we are working with!

Today is the day to jump up and say, “I’m going to be my own advocate. I’m going to step up to the plate to be more aware of who I am!” It’s as simple as reaching out, making some calls with the intent to learn about you!

Then you can set macros up.

Then you can set calories up.

Then you can make your menu.

Then you can structure your week with workouts.

Then you can shop differently....

It’s time today to learn more, put yourself out there more and ask for help! Manifest these amazing things that are important to you and become what it is you desire.

I Believe in you

Free Yourself From the Pain of the Past

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 09 Mar 2021 10:00:00 +0000

A late night setting, lights off, taking myself and you to a very vulernable place- This is me kicking the past self, thoughts, demons, worries and concerns to the curb- Topic of choice that has me in the some of the most vulernable states & lessons are sincerely taking time to realize that you can free yourself from the pain of the past and there are great ways to face your demons. With the illumination inside of me and forgiveness inside of me I have been able to face the craziest-painful and hurtful side of me- with grace & love - hasn't been and wasn't easy but once it was actually nailed down to see this once and for all- the main objective from that point on has been to allow nothing but the light to shine through awareness and understanding I have become more aware of my unconcious actions and will never be a victim to them ever again. We all will or have faced circumstances such as these - but we don't want to talk about it because it might trigger something inside of you- it might bring you back to that scary, worried or fearful place yet please believe me when I say that you will not know when they will reveal themselves yet you will know how to respond and react because you know exactly what you are facing now! You were destined to live an abundant life- just as I am- just as your neighbor is- In order to move on, be in ofrward motion and all in conjunction to face the negative/demons in your life which really is just a term for dealing with the repressed or unconscious aspects of your personality we need to know that everything you desire lies on the other side of facing your demons! After deep connection with Brendon Burchard "The Motivation Manifesto" im stunned in my walk of facing my demons to be reminded that our internal demons poison us with worry and fear whenever we might be vulnerable, stunting our growth and vitality. Our diestiny is deceded by how well we know our demons of doubt and delay. How well we defend against them and how many battles we win against them each day of our lives. Through Christ giving me my strength, I happily reconize these parts of my life and don't allow the past to be drawn into the future unless we make peace with it. Its one tough road but once it is taken all I have seen myselwf do now is be courageous enough to confront the dark parts of myself and work to banish them with my ILLUMINATION and foregiveness! As August Wilson states, "Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing!" Its time to transform your demons into a gateway towards joy and bliss Its time to transform the energy and confront that which you buried a long time ago. Its time to allow your light to shine on your demons- WHY? Because light over powers the darkness! Be gentle on yourself as that is exactly what I have done as I have taken on this process willingly. Do not pass judgement or criticism on what is! Much better please observe through awareness. If you and I can do that we can liberate ourselves from the past & feel the abundance of what the present and future hold for US- IT'S time to kick that part of your life to the curb & or face it once and for all!

Don’t Wait Till Your 65 to Retire

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 02 Mar 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Many people use the age 65 as their target retirement age. At that age you can begin to receive Medicare to cover your healthcare needs. However, most people now need to wait until 66 or 67 to collect unreduced Social Security benefits. And if you decide to call it quits at 65 you can expect to enjoy 20 or more years of retirement.

Today’s 65-year-olds are largely healthy and likely to live longer than earlier generations. But that doesn’t mean they’re not starting to feel the wear and tear of an aging body and mind. And it is not going to get any easier. None of us will ever be any younger than we are today. Even if you don’t feel old yet, you are growing older with each passing day. As your body ages your options to explore and experience new things tends to become more limited.

All these descriptions of retiring at 65 is what helps me with my mentality in my late thirties! Which is to live now and don’t wait to retire!

I have found that Covid has turned a leaf over in me that sincerely has brought the young little girl out of me all over again! The one that seeks out for adventure, spontaneity and pure joy from being outdoors & with family and friends!

This life doesn’t have to be lived later after all the years of hard work instead I’m noticing that through hard work we can also take time off and travel the places that the heart desires! I believe in this so much last September we purchased a sprinter van to help make these dreams come true! We leave when we can and stay to do life. We create and make memories and also love our hearts passion in the health and fitness industry! We are moving one day at a time towards our dream life which is so be happy, joyful and imperfectly perfect for our own life!

Rejoice in the desires of the heart.

Breathe.

Believe.

& become every single day! Be a risk taker and don’t wait till later to live your best life! Instead live it now!

It’s possible.

What Can Neurobiology Tell Us About Suicide with Connie Wray & Dr. Zavala

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 23 Feb 2021 10:00:00 +0000

A topic of suicide is and will never be easy. With the help of Dr. Zavala and Mrs. Connie Wray they share their passionate and detailed stories along with their insight! They also take time to share the drive of scientific research into the many questions we and others have about suicide. Many of the answers remain unknown but efforts go out everyday to save lives! Suicide rates are currently climbing in the US and many other countries, and suicide is now the second leading cause of death among young people globally, after traffic accidents. The World Health Organization recently estimated that, worldwide, one person ends their own life every 40 seconds.

Suicide is as complicated as it is tragic. I’m learning through time with Dr. Zavala & Connie Wray that suicidal behaviors come in many varieties, ranging from suicidal thinking, or ideation, to suicide attempt and completion, all of which may be associated with various levels of violence or intent. The behaviors themselves differ in incidence among genders, ethnicities, and other demographic categories, and almost always occur against a background of depression or some other mood disorder.

No field of scientific inquiry can single-handedly untangle a phenomenon as complex as suicide. But Wray & Zavala among many other scientists/researchers are hoping to shed light on the problem by digging into the neurobiological processes underlying thoughts about ending one’s own life and attempts to do so. This work is building support for the idea that suicide is tied to specific biochemical changes that can be measured and targeted independently of, and possibly in parallel with, the mental health disorders they often accompany. Findings from this work, researchers/scientists hope, could help reveal new treatments, and perhaps even opportunities to identify the people most at risk in time to intervene.

You are worth it.

You are valued.

And you are loved please always remember this! Never make a permanent decision in a temporary situation!

Friends, Lack of Trust & Golden Girls All In One

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 09 Feb 2021 10:00:00 +0000

We can all ask the tough question- why is it so tough to trust girlfriends?

And why is it so hard to make great girlfriends?

Let’s talk about being lonely first!!!

It serves no one.

Loneliness is correlated with poorer mental health, increased health issues, decreased immunity, and even early mortality therefore is more of a reason to share life with your connections which equals friends!

We have all sorts of people who come in and out of our lives who we term ‘friends’; acquaintances, soccer moms and dads, co-workers, service people, wait staff, managers, social media followers, classmates, etc. But what we yearn for are true friends. What we desire are people we can count on. Friends who enjoy us and understand us. Humans who create networks of love, caring, and understanding. People who will stand by our sides when things get tough.

Companions who’ll both laugh and cry with us. Friends who will stand the test of time.

Human connection is vital. We rely on each other for identity, belonging, acceptance, love & so much more. Without real connection, we cannot thrive. I’m recognizing that close relationships, more than money or fame, are what keep people happy throughout their lives. Those ties protect people from life’s discontents, help to delay mental & physical decline!

Discovering, creating, & maintaining deep connections to others is serious business. Close friendships & partnerships provide numerous benefits. With others, we find fun, happiness, understanding, laughter, compassion, challenge, encouragement, affection, and love. When we are deeply connected to others, our moods, health, and lives are improved!

Just because we have been hurt in our past!

Just because we have shared discomfort in relationships does not mean we will never be able to know what connection of great health truly is! Instead it will be more reason why we will find our “Golden Girls” because we deserve them in our lives!

One Of The Greatest Treasures: Compassion

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 02 Feb 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Today we will dive deep into one the three treasures of the world which is Compassion.

According to Tao Tzu simplicity, patience & compassion are the three greatest treasures. Simple in actions & thoughts, you return to the source of being. Patience with both friends & enemies, you accord with the way things are. Compassionate toward yourself, you reconcile all beings in the world.

It’s true that being compassionate is not a weakness but it is a sign of strength even in the midst of being mistreated, lied to or cheated on! You and everyone around you will benefit from sharing self compassion as it will be a domino effect authentically!

It’s not your job to hurt others because you are hurt! Instead it’s your responsibility to learn what caused pain in your heart and do everything you can to never inflict that same pain on another soul because you have compassion for self- as Tao states both friends & enemies be patient!

Enjoy the giant beautiful discussion about how compassion can change your life first by being self compassionate with a few ideas to practice it daily! Let’s understand why it’s difficult to be compassionate to others who you believe don’t deserve it. Lastly let’s get a grip on what exactly compassion is so we can inherit a more positive response to life once & for all!

You are loved

You are worth it

It’s not a topic for everyone yet it’s a topic for some and you have to know your not alone! However you might feel that you belong on the team of FBI & CIA cause your detective work is amazing! Yet really that is not the life for you! You are not meant to be a detective, surrender your self from the sacrifice of living your best life in hopes to change another human! Cheating is all around us and unfortunately it’s in our own house! Yet only if you allow it! Boundaries must be set in life! Once and for all! I pray to God that your detective work will prove you wrong yet when this comes from the gut and following the intuition it usually is not wrong, instead your right and not crazy! There are signs to warn you There are alarms to save you You have to be smart You have to know your worth and you have to know it’s not your fault! But it is your responsibility to take the right actions! No one wants to get caught cheating they want their primary relationship which is an act of have their cake and eat it too! That’s a delusional life A life is fantasy A life of fake connection and lack of trust You don’t deserve it See the signs, stop ignoring them by placing them on the rug and on the shelf! Is he cheating on you? Which then leads to the question how will you react and what do you stand for? I’m here with you with intent and purpose to help at least one more see their value more today than they did yesterday!!!

The Overview of Covid & Mental Health Effects With Dr. Zavala

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 19 Jan 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Dr. Zavala from Brain Health Restoration & I talk about the behaviors & responses to your environment that you can’t seem to control - the things about your personality that you know are just “not the real you.” You always seem to manifest these behaviors habitually,... but deep down you wish you could do things differently - FEEL differently. I’m not a doctor but Dr. Zavala is and through his expertise & my personal experience we share openly that your BRAIN HEALTH is directly connected to these types of problems.

This podcast - Project You - is about self-improvement. Being the best you. If you don’t have a healthy, whole mind, it makes it nearly impossible to be the best you.

We are all experiencing trauma on some level right now. COVID-19 IS a trauma. And for many people who have been through past traumas, the effects of COVID are compounded. A past trauma to the brain - physical or emotional - can affect your personality and the quality of your life.

That is why I have been going through treatments with Dr. Zavala over at Brain Health Restoration. My regular subscribers know the power these treatments have had on my overall health, wellness, and personality. If you are struggling with this pandemic, I hope you’ll take a moment - look them up - and decide whether you or someone you love needs these treatments.

This is the most current technology we have to treat and prevent brain problems. The Mert Brain Treatments I am receiving at BHR address the root cause - not just my symptoms. My anxiety, my mood swings, my brain fog - we can actually see what is causing them in real-time brain scans and address the problem head-on. You wouldn’t treat a broken leg without looking at an XRay, we need to have the same mentality when treating the brain.

Visit the website www.Brainhealthrestoraiton.com or go into the clinic and chat with a doctor about whether these treatments can help you. They are completely confidential. Tell them Camie sent you. Use the CODE Camie and you'll receive 10% off your first treatment.

Push Through Pain & Fear

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 05 Jan 2021 10:00:00 +0000

“Don’t let today’s disappointments cast a shadow on tomorrow’s dreams.”

One of the most difficult parts of reaching your goals or making positive change is pushing through discomfort.

This is where a lot of people give when the process inspires all kinds of challenging feelings.

In this episode we are standing in a place where we want to face the fear & pain once and for all with our shield of relentlessness and excitement to know we are creating our life! One day, one promise at a time!

We will be able to list all the factors that could encourage you to quit. We will be specific. What sacrifices will be the most difficult? What changes might push you way out of your comfort zone?

Then we will ask yourself: what’s the payoff if you keep going?

It’s time, to shine! It’s time to be bold and plow through the crap! No one else wants to talk about this but we will today in Project You with Camie Cragg.

Provoking YOU to discover YOU

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 29 Dec 2020 10:00:00 +0000

The time is now to become closer with the most important person in your life, which is YOU. In this episode you will find suggestions on behalf of building a better relationship with yourself which I do believe is worth every single attempt. I have found over the years of coaching Project C that the simplicity of documenting a new program, hobby, ritual, etc through a binder that is only dedicated to what you are currently interested in provokes self to stay engaged, form of self accountability and a tool to always have in the future.

As we chat about the the ways to discover what you are truly capable of and how to document it through your binder we will also prepare the mind to open up a blank journal that is labeled Project You with “your name.”

This is another step to really be able to learn how to future self journal, reflect and also realize once and for all that your Story Matters and is one hundred percent worth knowing at the capacity you are about to discover through writing!

It’s so unique, so simple and yes takes time! We are working developing a relationship with self therefore we are declaring today that we have time for ourselves! We know we are a priority!

And this is the perfect time, today to discover self more!

Why Gyms Are Essential to Our Comeback From Covid

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Dealing with the unforeseen challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has taken a significant toll on people all across the world. Every single human, some way, some how, has been affected as we are ALL living in a page of history with different gets crossed that we come out healthy and secure with our jobs as small businesses owners.

The big question is, when can we get back to normal?

How can we turn the nonessential health & wellness centers into essential businesses?

In the wake of a global health pandemic, easing back into our usual fitness routines can induce a range of challenges, as well as uncertainties/worries around which activities are safe to do & when.

I’ll raise my hand first & say with certainty that continued physical inactivity will bring catastrophic consequences for our physical & mental health, not to mention that of the economy & environment.

Health & wellness centers are essential for so many reasons. The most important being, regular aerobic exercise increases your immunological fitness. In other words, exercise increases blood flow & mobilizes white blood cells, one of the main defences against harmful microbes. Regular exercise also guards against obesity & decreases the risk for hypertension, type 2 diabetes, & cardiovascular disease, three of the most important underlying conditions that impact the fight against COVID-19!

My fellow health and fitness business owners & I strongly believe that we should be categorized as “essential” by the Governor. Our hope is that you can speak up for us and help us be a part of the solution in the fight against COVID-19!

Super Success Brain Health Restoration with Dr. Zavala & Jeff Hadwick

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 15 Dec 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Part of knowing yourself better is to develop a personal relationship with self. Sounds so weird? right? Can you actually say that out-loud and not roll your eyes? What you should say is “of course, that’s a given!”

But really, how many of us know the depths of not only what our heart wants, but the depths of how our organs work - one in particular our brain?

Percentages are so low when it comes to knowing self on a scientific level not to mention an emotional level- when we do we then become curious, then take action to be educated, all while solving some serious trials to become the best version of self!

Tune in to today’s episode with Dr. Zavala and Nuero Tech Jeff Hadwick to dive deep into what exactly Brain Health Restoration is and what it can bring to the table for you while developing the personal relationship with your brain that you deserve!

These two humans have a desire to help, connect and share the knowledge on brain treatment that is powered by wave neuroscience.

Sit back, turn up the volume to become enlightened and provoked to know a healthcare innovation company that uses break-through technology to revolutionize how they approach brain health. With new protocols, their MeRT treatment center & brain restoration clinic is able to fully customize anyone’s individual health journey with transcranial magnetic simulation.

I believe in what this company has to offer- I’m a patient there today and already 4 treatments in out of my first ten, I must say that I’m coping with my anxiety much better than I did, I’m more educated on the sleep/wake cycle and want the blue light that is available to us from 7am-10am from the sun itself- Brain Health Restoration is literally changing my life!

Hey Moms, It’s Not Selfish to Make Yourself a Priority!

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 08 Dec 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Attention all MOMS—If you feel guilty about self-care know that taking care of yourself isn't a luxury!! It is an essential part of being a good mom. Self-care, sometimes it can seem like a huge dream moms only fantasize about. Day in & day out we tirelessly work for our families every day. We think we’ll be able to focus on ourselves again after they’ve all left the the house. I get it, parenting is a selfless job. There is no room for being selfish when you are raising children. But I have to tell you this and it might be a rude awakening or maybe just right? Self-care is NOT selfish! In fact, I would argue that if we are to be the best parent we can possibly be, self-care should be a priority! Let’s roll into the zone in Project You were we are willing to be open to being more willing to give self love which then leads to self care to ourselves some way some how! Even if it’s a nap- you deserve that extra rest! If you are craving something & it’s a desire of the heart and you keep putting it on the back burner it probably deserves to be on the front side as a priority once and for all!

Emotional Maturity

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 01 Dec 2020 10:00:00 +0000

I believe we all want to claim that we are “emotionally mature” yet if I would like to put my hand up first & say “yes, I have adult fits! However I recognize them and do my best to change my level of reactions!” Emotional maturity refers to your ability to understand, and manage, your emotions. The most important part of emotional maturity is to realize that you when you have maturity within your emotions this enables you to create the life you desire. A life filled with happiness and fulfillment based upon what that means to you! You define success in your own terms, not society's, and you strive to achieve it because you know how you react is part of the outcome (good, bad or indifferent). In today’s episode of Project You with Camie Cragg we will go over signs of emotional maturity and how to develop better grips with all emotions! Believe me when I say it’s a daily practice and can turn into a very challenging road yet by the action based behavior that you continue to have to be your best self- this road too will shine, show and prepare you for the more mature days ahead of you, emotionally!

Beginning Stages to Building a Business

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Building anything in this life comes from one place first which is PASSION. I have found over the 16 years of being in the health & fitness industry that the drive of consistency and relentless is were two driving forces to building the business that was the desire of my heart. When one has a small idea that once can lead to the big dreams to become your reality. It’s all a huge risk but isn’t anything in life that is bigger than you scary or a risk? Answer is yes! Yes it’s scary, it’s out of your comfort zone, it’s challenging and it’s those things that has kept me going to reaching new levels of business along the way because I knew from a young age that nothing comes easy! Everything that calls for time and effort in return is earned and worth it! Listen for the reason, the desires & dreams from within and then passionately act on them one day, one step at a time. Passion is the key to success & success is defined so differently with every individual or organization. Welcome to your passion, which is your business- build on that!

The Importance of H2O

It’s time to educate self once & for all with these cold hard facts about H2O and why we need it so badly all the time I order to function properly!

Let’s go over my list of 15 reasons why water will and can become one of the greatest staples in your life! In this episode you will learn to inspire yourself to function at its greatest capacity by drinking more water frequently during your day! Which will then turn this into a strong & healthy pattern that you will not turn your back on again after feeling the feelings when do have it!

Forgiveness is Hard but Real

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 03 Nov 2020 10:00:00 +0000

I will always go back to the advice of: follow the heart! Speaking from mine, I know that it’s hard for me to be full of negativity and hatred! It’s doesn’t settle right, even if I was done wrong- what does feel right in the depths of my soul is finding a way to forgive which allows opportunities to arise on the other side! Forgiveness is a choice and certainly isn’t easy- (once again, if it was easy everyone would be doing it)! This is your chance to be Extraordinary! As you dive in with me on this episode of Project You I hope you find it in you to love a little deeper and really find the path of forgiveness for all parties involved! And guess what and who needs to be forgiven first? YOU! Although we often want to point the finger to those who hurt us, I can guarantee there are places where you too could use some grace and lessons - not to mention the forgiveness to really be able to move on. As Christ did for us, He forgave us of our sins, and I hope that more people around you who actually authentically care for you can also forgive you, speak well over you and pray for you! As you are not alone! We all could use more love, generosity and forgiveness in our lives! Pray! Love and do good to the offenders. Don’t speak poorly of the offender. Release them from your punishment. Treat them the way you would want to be treated & stop dwelling on the past.

Making Hard Decisions is Hard

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 27 Oct 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Let’s just be real, our entire lives are structured around making decisions. Every day we make simple choices, like what to wear to work, what to eat for dinner, what time to wake up, etc., that don’t cause us too much stress in some cases! Yet bigger decisions (ones that could change our lives or impact the ones we love) can be a source of significant anxiety and doubt! My best word of advice here, as we talk about in this episode, is to #1 Follow your intuition, your gut! When we feel stuck, or indecisive, it’s typically because we are disconnected from ourselves. When faced with ‘I don’t know’ we need to take a time out and listen to the silent whispers of our soul. Take a few deep breaths. Close your eyes and tap into your intuition- Remember that you are loved and hard decisions are just that, hard yet by the power of your mind, heart and soul you will become from your decision! It’s your journey and I’m so proud of you for tapping into your world that you deserve!!!! Muah Camie Cragg

Co-Dependency

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 20 Oct 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Codependency is characterized by a person belonging to a dysfunctional, one-sided relationship where one person relies on the other for meeting nearly all of their emotional and self-esteem needs. It also describes a relationship that enables another person to maintain their irresponsible, addictive, or underachieving behavior. The time that we can be aware of other behavior is a greater day of living in the conscious world! It’s a day where we begin to release from the addictions, irresponsibility and procrastination!

Often people don’t even know what the signs are till you know of codependency it which we will go over in this episode of Project You. 1) Difficulty making decisions in a relationship. 2) Difficulty identifying your feelings. 3) Difficulty communicating in a relationship. Take your journal out and let’s write down the behaviors and Insights we take from this episode of Project You! We are bound to grow today because we want to! Muah 💋 Camie Cragg

How To Build Lean Mass

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 06 Oct 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Not everyone is looking to lose weight. In fact, gaining weight in the form of muscle can be seriously beneficial & also very hard! For one, it can help you feel stronger both mentally and physically! Strengthening certain power muscle groups can also improve your performance in the gym and make everyday tasks during day-to-day life easier like getting out of the car, hiking, going to the park, grocery shopping, etc.

Functionally, muscles protect your bones, organs, & tissues & even help you heal quickly. Muscles can also be an important factor in maintaining your weight! Muscle requires more energy & actually burns more calories than fat. The more muscle mass you have, the faster your metabolism is. More muscle means burning more at rest, plus being able to work harder during your workouts.

Check into this podcast to learn about how to gain lean mass on your body in the healthiest simplest way! Elevating the mind from all the stress and really tapping into the simplicity and organic way our bodies were designed to build muscle! Don’t forget to go back a few podcast and check into the “how to lose body fat” which is a great parallel to achieving the dynamic duo!!!!

Toxic Positivity

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 22 Sep 2020 10:00:00 +0000

The phrase “toxic positivity” refers to the concept that keeping positive, and keeping positive only, is the right way to live your life. It means only focusing on positive things and rejecting anything that may trigger negative emotions. When you deny or avoid unpleasant emotions, you make them bigger. Avoiding negative emotions reinforces this idea: Because you avoid feeling them, you tell yourself that you don’t need to pay attention to them. While you are trapped in this cycle, these emotions become bigger and more significant as they remain unprocessed. But this approach is simply unsustainable. Evolutionarily, we as humans cannot program ourselves to only feel happy and it’s not our job! It’s time to share more of how to take your life back and learn how to respond in a better way! Toxic positivity is not the way of life- love yourself enough to also be real enough with all emotions! Project You starts NOW! Muah

Gaslighting

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 15 Sep 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Plain and simple gaslighting is bad and it happens to too many people that don’t realize that this a real behavior is very prominent in some people’s ways! We should all know different types of personalities and behaviors to better understand how to respond and also take control back of your life! In this episode we will speak truth about a subject that gaslighters will never want to speak about and or know! The victim should know about how to recognize this type of behavior in marriages, relationships, siblings, co workers, organizations, etc. A sneak peak to some common phrases you might hear from your gaslighter are: *You're so sensitive! *You know that's just because you are so insecure. *Stop acting crazy. *You are just paranoid. *You just love trying to throw me off track. *I was just joking! *You are making that up. *It's no big deal. Let’s get down to the point and while we do get our your Project You journal! And highlight all the “things” that you love about this podcast! To self journal is a great way to self care!

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 01 Sep 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Today we are dipping into the mind to tap into the world of how we can keep this weight if fat off our bodies simply by focusing on what we think & believe of self! The awareness of what behavior we are applying in our lives vs. what we are not seriously is crucial in the line of losing body fat as a successful goal!

Represent yourself well by peeling the layers off with honesty and as you do that you will be more alarmed in all the positive ways to change the body composition. In today’s final three part series I focused on the respected Allison Grupski, PhD, director of behavior change strategies and coaching principles.

Tune in with your Project You journal ready to take notes and apply! Starting off with Principle #1 Self Efficacy: “We are more likely to take action when we believe we'll succeed, and we're more likely to keep pushing forward, even in the midst of setbacks, when our self-efficacy is higher."

We tune in today with our topic of losing more body fat we must also remember that this plan is do able with the patience and action based behavior to connect the dots. In this second part series we will go over the science behind losing fat. Answering the question, “Why do I gain weight when I start eating right and working out?” When an individual does not know the science on behalf of what really is going on internally it is a huge reason why people stop and go back to their old habits! However is patience and action are used together with the blind faith that your body WILL respond- one will feel the success- it’s literally around the corner! Let’s get deeper today with our body fat loss topic and make sure your Project You journal is out and open for your notes! This way we can come back and refresh next week as we are taking personal inventory to be out better selves internally to externally!!!! muah Camie Cragg

Emotional Venting (Dumping)

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 11 Aug 2020 10:00:00 +0000

To emotionally dump on others usually means that we are connecting through fear, worry, complaining or in crisis. I have found that re connecting through being authentic and truthful is best as this disconnects one from bringing chaos back into their life. Venting emotionally is only a quick fix and most don’t even know that this pattern is so deep that they don’t even know who is before them that their dumping is happening too. So instead we need good people in our lives that can be amazing sound boards with great perspective and give us grounding security instead of feeding the venting aka dumping. We talk about way to break through emotional dumping, breaking the cycle of emotional addiction and realizing that this life we are living isn’t “hard” it’s just new & new is okay! Muah Camie Cragg

It’s apart of your new canvas and it’s time to enjoy your “new” improved wiser, happy, author heart felt life!

Embracing Hardships

By embracing hardships, we change the outcome. Stop resisting the challenges that come your way; you might be able to change them, you will never eliminate them, so stop resisting them.

Loneliness & Connection

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 16 Jun 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Inspired by Brene Brown and Dr. Murthy we will cover a topic that people feel yet don’t want to talk about! Loneliness is a universal human emotion that is both complex and unique to each individual. Because it has no single common cause, the prevention and treatment of this potentially damaging state of mind can vary dramatically. While common definitions of loneliness describe it as a state of solitude or being alone, loneliness is actually a state of mind. Loneliness is defined by researchers such as Brene Brown and Dr. Murthy as feeling lonely more than once a week. With the passion to correct this state of mind you can and will overcome it and be on a path of recovery! Nothing in this world can or will keep you captivated in this lonely state of mind.

Reopening From a Rejuvenating Space

Two powerful warriors in life are time and patience! As we move through chaotic moments of life we can maintain composure through believing that if I give this time and have patience this too shall pass. As we have patience and time to work through situations with keeping the action based behavior to prepare correctly for the day you will be able to work again! You will be able to see more clear and have the up most respect for the life that we do have the freedom to live! The love and ambition I will grow and be adored more than taken for granted! Let’s declare greatness over this year as others declare how bad it is. This is a way we can be apart of the solution rather than being part of the problem! Rejoice in the journey with an optimistic, safe and logical mind! Muah

Single most important thing in life: Relationships

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 12 May 2020 10:00:00 +0000

The pivotal moment that I realized relationships are the single most important thing in life rather than things was listening to a song by Dennis Lloyd .....And whether your relationship is awful, good, or great We don't like endings We don't like to lose things And especially, we don't like to lose things that are important to us And make no mistake Relationships are the single most important thing to you and your life It's the source of all of your best memories It's the source of all of your worst memories When you think back on your life And you're 95, a hundred years old And you look back over the course of your lifetime You're not gonna think I wish I owned a better phone I wish I spent more time on the internet I wish I spent more time at work or sleeping It's not gonna be any of those kinds of things It's gonna be I wish I spent more time with the people I love Muah 💋 Camie Cragg

Human Experience Leads to Vulnerability

Gratitude: Being Thankful For Others

projectyouwithcamiecragg — Tue, 17 Mar 2020 10:00:00 +0000

Gratitude is the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness.

As we live in the world of "I" the complete gratifying moments in life are when we see beyond self and more towards others!

It’s a time to really ask yourself what does your gratitude feel like? Where does it come from? And how often do you share your gratitude?

Gratitude is strongly and consistently associated with greater happiness. Gratitude helps people feel more positive emotions, relish good experiences, improve their health, deal with adversity, and build strong relationships. People feel and express gratitude in multiple ways and it is a known fact that if one can express gratitude to others more often, then these feelings of happiness will be heightened.

Enjoy the arena of getting to know your gratitude and where you send this energy of love!

Benefits to Staying Active

However, we are inspired to be our best daily with what we have currently inside of us! When we are lacking motivation, which will happen, we can always rely on the elements that we have set up for self to help with motivation on non motivating days! Such as creating obtainable goals that fit into a timeline, defining your why, understanding new techniques in your passion of movement, educating self on the benefits of why your passion of movement is what you deserve in your life and creating a schedule that allows time to execute your exercise in your crazy filled days! As you tune into Project You my hopes are that you are able to take notes and apply through action that you deserve to sweat at least once a day!
