This week I talk about holding your position versus making progress during this crazy quarantine crisis. I also talk about how to cultivate personal happiness - it's an inside job. And happy birthday to my big brother. I said the word "fart" in this episode in his honor. I hate that. But he's worth it. 

The Covid-19 situation has caused a lot of fear, anxiety and uncertainty and has changed our daily lives dramatically. In this episode I address how I'm coping with the changes and managing the new, if not temporary, normal.  Listen in for 10 practical ideas I personally have implemented to navigate these uncharted waters.  

I decided to tell the story of marriage number two. I had said I never would but there have been so many women I have met lately who have found themselves in my shoes. There is merit to sharing in the hopes you learn something or see something relevant to your life. This episode deals with recovery and addiction and it is my intent to be respectful and only tell my perspective without making assumptions or casting judgement on others in recovery or battling addiction. This is MY story and I strive to only tell my story and not his.  

This week I simply recap some of the stuff I've been up to, which invariably leads to some tangents involving catching up on pop culture, meal plan tweaks, the two-sides of deprivation, and enduring hard things. 

I talk about my recent Miami trip, starting Phase 1 of the LiveHard program including those dang 5 minute cold showers, and the glee of holding my first workshops to teach about overcoming binge and emotional eating.
