210: Achieving Recovery Through Addressing Nutrition with Maggie Jenson

Published: Dec. 5, 2022, 9 a.m.

Several statistics show that children of alcoholics will grow up to either become alcoholic themselves, or marry one because they're so conditioned to that lifestyle. A huge part of that is because they could get so rooted in their own belief systems that they end up in self-sabotage without even realizing it. And somehow, transformation only occurs when intense suffering forces them to make that shift.\nOn today's episode, Duane chats with Maggie Jenson, an alternative recovery coach. Maggie is the creator of The Magnify Method, an up-to-date, science-backed program devoted to personal development and overcoming addictive behavior. A behavioral change specialist, Maggie utilizes her knowledge in nutrition coaching and personal training in helping clients learn \u201cto think different to drink different, or never again \u201d through practicing holistic Mind-Body-Soul recovery.\nMaggie grew up in an alcoholic home, specifically, a mom who was alcoholic even until her death. Her biggest trauma was at 12 years old when her brother took away his life while they were home alone. Dealing with feelings of guilt and pain, Maggie started drinking six months after. And while her brother\u2019s death was the reason that she began drinking, her father\u2019s death, on the other hand, paved the way for her to make a radical shift. Listen in as Maggie shares more about her story, how to break free from your program, and how nutrition and fitness play a huge role in recovery.\nIn this episode, you will hear:\n\nThe impact of alcoholics on kids\n\nHow trauma is exacerbated when we don\u2019t talk about it\n\nWhat motivated her to pursue her passion for nutrition and fitness\n\nThe courage to take the risk to go against your self-limiting beliefs\n\nIt\u2019s the little things that build up your confidence\n\nHow nutrition affects your mood and your belief system\n\nThe power of affirmation to override your program\n\n\nSubscribe and Review\nHave you subscribed to our podcast?
