What does the science actually say about red meat after breast cancer?

In this episode, Laura Lummer begins a new series focused on separating nutrition myths from facts. The conversation was sparked by hearing a physician recommend a low-fat, high-fiber diet with no red meat to an entire room of cancer patients.

Laura explains why that kind of advice ignores bio individuality and why nutrition science is far more nuanced than headlines suggest.

This episode breaks down how observational studies work, what statistically significant means, and why one of the most cited red meat studies cannot be used to create universal food rules.

Topics include:

• Observational studies vs randomized trials

• Self-reported diet recall and its limitations

• What statistically significant really means

• The Stanford SWAP-MEAT trial explained

• Why one diet does not fit everybody

Diet plans. Supplements. Protocols. Podcasts. Advice from well-meaning people. At some point, all of that support can stop feeling helpful and start feeling overwhelming.

In this episode, Laura shares a real-life story that highlights how stress and unresolved trauma can impact metabolic health, even when diet and exercise look "right." She explains why consistency, tracking data, and self-honesty matter so much when making changes, and how constantly switching approaches can keep us stuck.

This episode offers permission to slow down, turn down the noise, and focus on what truly supports healing after breast cancer.

At the beginning of the year, affirmations are everywhere. But if you have ever felt frustrated, tense, or discouraged while trying to use affirmations, this episode explains why.

In Episode 446, Laura shares why affirmations that are not believable often create internal pushback, self-judgment, and cognitive dissonance, and why this is not a personal failure.

You will learn how the brain responds to thoughts that feel untrue, how glimmers signal safety to the nervous system, and how to choose words that gently move you forward in healing, relationships, business, and lifestyle change.

This episode offers a realistic and compassionate approach to mindset work that works with your brain instead of against it.
