After 15 years of being the lead eating disorder specialist at a major hospital, Dr. Cristina Castagnini left to open her own practice and start a podcast with the hopes of spreading more awareness about mental illness, eating disorders and body image issues.

With the pandemic of body dysmorphia and how people see themselves including myself its fit to understand what people may be going through when they are faced with eating disorders, anorexia, or bulimia. 

People often have a misconception of what an eating disorder looks like, you can be any size, shape or physical level and have an eating disorder.

Men also have eating disorders and body image issues. 

Dr.Cristina and I get into the mind of eating disorder and what someone may be experiencing.

Everyone has their own unique reasons for having an eating disorder, and each has their own journey they will need to embark on in order to heal the wounds of the visual outcome. 

First thing is to want to get help, because work is going to be involved.

If this resonates with you, and is a sign for you to get help. 

As someone that went through her own eating disorder, I know how hard it is to ask for help. I'm grateful to God for seriously creating havoc in my life that forced me to start eating slowly. 

It took me a long time to heal through my health and body issues. 

One of Self-love and Self-acceptance

Ken and I get right into speaking about the difference between spirituality and personal development or mindset shifting.

Ken reminds us that it’s the mindset what frames up their reality of how people interpret life, live life, believe life. And then of course, creates the action that people take in life.

This podcast is full of nuggets to shift you into 2022, Ken continues to share that we are creating our realities through our thoughts. We are not our thoughts, but that's where it all begins.

Ken answers one of my questions with so much clarity that it winded me with excitement, his responds was top notch 

“I will speak from my own truth and experiences. I'll always say that too, is that I teach people that your own truth will come from your own experiences. What I talk about I've experienced in my life. So it's very easy for me to speak with authenticity towards it, because it is my truth until people experience these things, they're just perspectives.”

This rings true to many powerful healers that I know, authenticity comes from your truth and not being afraid to be YOU.

We get into speaking about the conscious and subconscious mind and how to breakthrough barriers to start attracting the life you desire to live.

Covering how to drop from our head into our heart and deal with the emotions that are coming up. Ken tells us how he still experiences this through his spiritual awakening process.

Listen and share this podcast full of personal development and spiritual activations to shift you towards a new beginning.

Jennifer speaks to us about her three step process on how to speak to herself with forgiveness and compassion to having a successful day, regardless of how she is feeling.

Jennifer lets us know “it's only been the last 10 or so years that I've been able to look in the mirror and be like, yeah, I like what I see, and that's been a journey.”

We speak about the body and how to nourish our souls with the right foods, digestive care, and mindfulness all embodied as a whole.

Ready to Get Real in 2022

Jen takes us back to 1997, when she was in a traumatic car accident in Boulder, Colorado, and it was through that car accident that she found pilates.

And so through that accident, she literally was in different holistic doctors offices for eight hours a day for it was a year or two, non-stop and so she experienced cranial sacral, massage, acupressure, acupuncture, chiropractic, she was doing psychological, learning and neurological and learning.

There was at one point, like I could look at fruit and I'd be like, oh, could I have that orange? But it was an apple.

So it was really there in Boulder through that car accident, which literally. Totally derailed everything I was going to do and bring me down another path.

Jen calls the accident such a blessing.  She had the ability to rehab with Pilates for two straight years before she ever even thought of getting into the industry. So it was really,  thank goodness for Boulder.

Thank goodness for the car accident for the gentlemen that,  rear-ended me going so darn fast at a red light. God bless them she says,  it totally changed her life

Jen and I uncover so much wisdom in this podcast from a varied of different modalities to speaking about current events and how we are both dealing with the pressure of the collective consciousness through out own awakening and purpose on this planet.

Dr. Shaler explains to us, what a narcissist is and all the little traits one can have, she takes us takes us on a journey of a toxic relationship and how to escape it with all your sanity.

She speaks about the overt and covert narcissists and how they may want to control you, to not being able to leave the relationship.

“There are many types of narcissist  is to the one we usually think of is the one who is overt.

The one is grandiose, the one who's giving orders, barking orders, very entitled, always front and centre all about me.com. We're very familiar with those ones, but for example, there are others who are very covert. They are harder to spot because they are.”

Determining what’s yours and what are  projections that others are putting onto you.

If you don’t have the right to say or express what you think, feel, need, want or prefer in any relationship raises red flags.

Dr.Shaler brings us great wisdom on how to deal with narcissistic/toxic relationships and create a plan to break free from the controlled relationship status into something more empowering for you.

Cindy takes us down the path of numerology and how everything we want to solve comes from knowing your numbers.

Growing up in a pretty happy home, in Western Canada in Alberta. My dad was my biggest cheerleader. He always told me I could do be, have anything I wanted. He passed away suddenly when I was 16 and it tore my whole life Cindy’s apart.

She created a few beliefs in my mind that number one, everyone was going to abandon me. And so that created a series of emotionally and physically abusive, ‘cause she didn't believe that she was worthy of having a relationship where the guy would stick around.

She created the belief that the universe didn't care about her because what universe would take away a 16 year old's father.

And so shortly after that she fell in the wrong crowd, started doing cocaine.

Cindy moved to a country that has the death penalty, if she get caught doing drugs.  However she loved myself enough to stay alive, then do drugs and sure enough, she’s alive to tell us the story. This was in Jakarta Indonesia.

Cindy tells us about her humble beginnings as a VA and how she quickly moved her business into numerology when she tried to figure things out in her life.

Things just started to make sense, today Cindy offer classes in numerology and how to navigate your life through numbers…

This conversation was so much fun, as I got to speak about how I play with numbers when the universe delivers them to me. We got speak about the personal meaning of the numbers and the universal meaning of them.

Her story is unique that she had to create the life around this new experience that she went through in her senior year.

Paula is her pen name, she adopted this name after her friend told her that she should bring a name to the opera diva, that was belting out of her vocal cords. This was one of her tourettes sounds that came from within herself.

At the age of 24 not only did she experience having a boyfriend for the first time, she also started to develop tourettes.

Paul worked in a library as she was putting books away this hiccup sound came from her vocal cords, however this wasn't a familiar hiccup situation.

This sound and feeling was something that Paula didn't experience previously. These sounds appeared once a day, climbing up to several times a day when her co-workers started to count her occurrences. 

The more the would count the more sounds came out of her.

Paula didn't understand what was happening, and felt that she was being outcasted when she was thrown out of her music class in her junior year of college.

It took a toll on her that she had to take a step back and reflect on everything she was experiencing one summer away from everything.

She had experienced her many emotions wondering if she should go back to school after she failed every class the year before. The great thing about the college she was at, is that you had to see a psychologist to make sure you don't repeat the previous year in the present year.

As she went to speak to the psychologist he's the one that diagnosed her with tourettes that made Paula's life a little bit easier. 

Author of 4 books, Paula started to tell her story giving other women  permission to thrive from their discomforts to accepting who they are.

This story is one of great wisdom and acceptance of who you are, however it didn't come easy. 

It came with a great deal emotional uproar that Paula had to deal with.

She found herself changing the people in her life to really, giving herself permission to accepting this new personality coming out of her without judgement by others that didn't understand it.

Paula turned her life around and now is able to take care of her destiny with the right mindset, thoughts and desires she wants to create for herself.

Take a listen and pass on to family and friends that need to hear this powerful, courageous message.

From the outside looking in you may think someone has it all.

The perfect family, marriage and life.

Simone had that amazing life.

Her journey is a beautiful one outlined in her book "The Extraordinary, Ordinary You."

We speak about her journey with her children and Rob through the process of adoption, the lessons and wisdom she learned along the way and teaching her children great lessons on this journey they get to experience together picking up their new brother and sister. 

One day Rob's friend calls and asks him if he would like to climb Mt.Kilimanjaro, Rob, chuckles and tells his friend to contact Simone she would do it.

Without hesitation Simone takes on the challenge. 

Simone was dealing with her own inner critic that she wanted to put herself in a position where she felt accomplished and recognize nothing can hold you down, only you, your thoughts and your actions. 

Mt.Kilimanjaro was her goal to be able to get over those undesired thoughts, and it has, yet that voice sometimes may creep in and Simone tells us how she deals with it at that time.

Every part of her life has brought her to this beautiful life she lives now.

Her story is one of excitement and inspiration.

OVERCOMING THE EGO talk series

Tara went through a serious body love language make over after her second son. She lost close to 60 pounds but still found herself miserable and disconnected from what mattered most, herself.

After losing all this weight, Tara felt like she has conquered her weight loss goal but when she found herself feeling unhappy, she realized she had to do the deeper work and heal from her wounds.

In this episode Tara and I go into the bedroom to speak about bedroom body image issues, into the dressing room in a mall to let go off what isn't sewn for your body.

I speak about the liberation my friend felt when she went fully naked in the beaches of Jamaica and what it took for me to take off my bikini top in Costa Rica. 

When you think of your body and speak to your body, you become that of your body.

Tara gives incredible advice on how to deal with certain things that go on in our head when we speak about our body and how to overcome them, by using simple tools and techniques to bring love to yourself.

We laughed so hard in the episode as Tara and I speak about the Monday start of salad and chicken diet, satisfaction in eating a bag of chips and how losing yourself in a chocolate bar isn't going to kill you if you don't allow it to kill you mind first.

We speak about the weight loss battle and how to overcome it. 

So much fun in this podcast to bring to light a topic that brings shame and guilt to many women, men and youth.. 

It's time to get body liberated.

Take a listen and pass on to family and friends that need to hear this powerful, courageous message.
