Episode 172 - Thom King - CEO and Chief Food Scientist, ICON Foods/Author, Guy Gone Keto

“I look at what I do as more of a cause than as a business.”

“The process took years...I look back at the successes versus the challenges...the challenges

are when I learned the most...I am super grateful for those.”

- Thom King

In Episode 172, the Two Fit Crazies have an amazing conversation with Thom King, “part CEO,

part personal development wonk and part biohacker info geek.” Joining the show from

Portland, Oregon, Thom discusses his journey to become a “serial entrepreneur,” founding

multiple companies and authoring a book. Currently the CEO and Chief Food Scientist at

ICON Foods, Thom reveals how a fortuitous run in with an “OG” of Stevia led to his

fascination and eventual success dissecting and re-creating great tasting foods using

clean-label sweetening systems to replace sucrose and high-fructose corn syrup. In addition

to working with major food and beverage companies around the world, Thom’s personal

Ketogenic lifestyle inspired him to share his knowledge and experiences with the world

through his book, Guy Gone Keto. Although the word “Guy” appears in the title, Thom

reassures listeners that the message is universal: “you must eat to live, not live to eat.”

Through his passion for creating foods that offer less sugar and carbs per serving, Thom talks

about his current line of condiments and his current project of creating healthier and

Keto-friendly cocktails such as: Margaritas, Pina Coladas, Manhattan’s, and Christine’s

personal favorite, the Cosmopolitan. Do not be surprised when she asks if taste testers are

needed! You are going to love this episode packed with tons of laughs and surprising

information about what is in your food!

Episode 170 - Dr. Glenn Livingston Clinical Psychologist and Author of ​Never Binge Again

“The voice of justification is my inner pig...I don’t eat pig slop and I don’t let animals tell me what to do.”

“Use the present moment to be healthy.” - Dr Glenn Livingston

In Episode 170, the Two Fit Crazies have an amazing conversation with Dr. Glenn Livingston, clinical psychologist, and author of ​Never Binge Again. ​ Glenn openly discusses how his struggles with over exercising, or exercise bulimia, and binge eating led to his formerly obese state. As a psychologist, he was determined to understand why he felt he was not “whole” and wasn’t happy, so Glenn started studying the neurology of cravings and impulse control. Listen closely as Glenn reveals how we all have a “voice of justification” that he calls his “inner pig.” As one learns how to communicate with this “inner pig,” they will then experience newfound balance, freedoms, control, and safety. Dr. Glenn delves deeper into this concept in his book, Never Binge Again​, which you can attain FOR FREE on his website, www.neverbingeagain.com​. Quiet that inner pig!

Episode 157 - Carol Ann – Chiseled Faith

Director of Education: Chiseled Faith Author: ​Chiseled Faith Fitness Expert, Author, Educator, Health & Fitness Entrepreneur

“I always felt that something was missing from the faith-based community.”

“Live a life of abundance...not be a slave to your body.” - Carol Ann

In this episode, the Two Fit Crazies are joined by the amazingly uplifting, beautiful, and intelligent woman by the name of Carol Ann, the mastermind behind Chiseled Faith. Carol Ann felt something was missing from the faith-based community with regards to exercise and caring for the body. As a result, she wrote, ​Chiseled Faith, a manuscript that lays the groundwork for educating religious communities to improve nutrition and exercise routines through teachings of the Bible. While the fitness industry talks about the idea of exercising the mind and body, Carol Ann is a pioneer in finding a way to “tap into spirituality” through Chiseled Faith. With staggering numbers of obese and unhealthy clergy and religious officials on the rise, Carol Ann knew it was time to find a way to “work in” fitness and nutrition into the religious community. Carol Ann also discusses how growing up as a Fundamental Baptist in the south provided her with the inspiration to create a faith-based health and wellness program that perfectly juxtaposes the principles of exercise science with faith. Her dedication to provide community motivation and inspiration through the words of the Bible are unparalleled as seen through her devotion to Chiseled Faith. This episode will surely inspire you!
