Mike Millner has been a
high-level nutrition coach for almost 10 years. He has a gift for
understanding the psychological and physiological needs of his
clients, which has led to thousands of success stories. His
personality-based approach with an emphasis on mindset has been
featured in Thibarmy.com, Nutritional Coaching Institute, Ever
Forward Radio, True Transformation, and many others.
Mike believes the most important
thing is connecting with you and understanding where you’re at in
your journey. Personally, he has been on every end of the spectrum
when it comes to dieting and everywhere in between. He’s been
ashamed, insecure, overweight, orthorexic, skinny fat, and finally
embarrassed to step foot in the gym. But he’s come out the other
side into a place of balance, harmony, and good health.
Mike’s goal is to help as many
people as possible to navigate through life as a healthy individual
in a way that’s sustainable and enjoyable. As Mike would tell you –
your personality is the key.
In this episode, we chat all about the mind and body
connection, three personality types and how to align your nutrition
with each one, why chronic dieting could be working against your
goals, and much more!
“The middle ground is where
the magic happens.” Mike Millner
