My friend Jen Liddy joins me to talk about her journey from gluten-free evangelist to flexible intuitive eater, and I share my journey to becoming [mostly] gluten-free.

I spent the majority of my life thinking there was something WRONG with me -- why do all these things like shopping, working at certain jobs, and just socializing feel so hard for me when other people do them so easily (and even seem to enjoy them)? 

Understanding my introverted qualities and learning to honor and respect myself rather than criticize myself has been SUCH a boost for my self esteem. 

Hear what it means to be an introvert, and how knowing that about yourself can help with your self esteem and body image.

I don't buy it, and in this episode, I'm talking about how the intentions behind whatever you're doing is the most important part. Doing things out of love and respect for yourself is MUCH different than doing them because you are punishing yourself or think you need to change.
