6/7/2023
41:57
In this episode, I talk about a book I read last year titled "The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying" by Bonnie Ware and how thinking about the end of my life, not in a morbid way, but in a matter-of-fact way, has helped me face my fears and show up powerfully for my lie. I also read some old Instagram posts on this topic and talked about some reflections I have been having since deciding to retire from coaching. My hope is this episode gets you in action and leaves to inspired to be big, bold, and courageous in your life.

#140 What to Expect from the Recovery Process
5/24/2023
48:18
In this episode, I talk about the recovery process and how it happens in phases. Too many people try to rush the process or skip steps which ultimately slows them down and leaves them stuck. I share about my unique road to recovery and how, now, 13 years after making the powerful decision to work on recovery, I see things differently. Hindsight is 20/20, ya know? I also share what the process has looked like for various clients of mine, as many of their steps varied from mine. I hope you learn so much about yourself and what you need to keep moving forward from this episode.

Today we are with Rachel Hills, and our conversation gets raw, real, and deep. And it's loooooong and juicy! We talk about all the things, including her religious upbringing and the overlaps with diet culture, her personal struggle with body image and food, motherhood, miscarriages, health struggles. We dive into shame and how underneath it is a belief that you can change, how your personality is not your trauma responses and why we romanticize our EDs and thinness. AND SO MUCH MORE. It's an awesome conversation that I hope you love as much as I do. Her Bio: I’m a wife, mother of 3 teenagers, hairstylist of 21 years and a trauma informed breathwork facilitator.
