Episode #111: Three Kids, One Business, Zero Family Nearby: How Erin & Dusty Stanczyk Are Still in Love
Erin and Dusty Stanczyk are back, and this time we went deep. If you don't know them yet, they're the couple behind Eat Move Rest: certified health and lifestyle coaches, authors, retreat hosts, homeschooling parents of three, and the people who will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about fruit and blood sugar.
We talked about all of it. The move from their dream home to a smaller house in the city. The way isolation was quietly straining their marriage without them even realizing it. What it actually looks like to run a business, homeschool your kids, and stay in love when you're all home, all the time, and someone always needs something.
I'll walk you through:
✅ Why they downsized from their dream home and what the Blue Zones had to do with it
✅ How community (or the lack of it) affects your marriage more than you think
✅ What happens to a couple's intimacy when the kids are young, the business is demanding, and you're running on empty
✅ Why they eat bowls of fruit for breakfast and why a diabetic client lost 15 pounds doing the same
✅ The truth about blood sugar spikes, intuitive eating, and why your microbiome might be the one calling the shots
✅ What HALT means and why it explains most of your arguments
✅ How faith, abstinence, and lifestyle design all tie together into one very holistic, very real way of living
✅ Why Dusty says discipline and self-love are actually the same thing
This one is warm, honest, and practical in the best way. No perfectly edited advice, but just two people figuring it out in real time, with kids climbing on the chairs in the background.
