In today's episode we're talking about when others cause you harm. Understanding you can't control their behaviour but you can control how you react, ultimately showing up for YOU. 

Everyone holds their own values and morals, and because of this there are times when we can become offended or hurt by another person’s actions or inactions. So, what do you do when that happens to you? When someone intentionally, or unintentionally, causes you physical or emotional harm. Our first instinct is what we usually catch ourselves naturally wanting to do in response to their behaviours. This includes seeking retaliation/revenge (wanting to hurt them back), publicizing it (voicing stance/opinion), internalizing it (it’s my fault) and blaming the other person (it’s their fault). What if someone doesn’t directly say something to offend you but you know their values and morals conflict with yours? How do you determine whether or not the "middle ground" can be reached without compromising what you believe in? It's also important to understand that feelings from past trauma can present themselves in these situations. Therefore, we need to make sure we are showing up for ourselves.

On today's episode we sit down with Dr. Leon Waye, Medical Director at Form Medical Aesthetics. We unpack the reasons people come to Dr. Waye and Form Medical Aesthetics, with the goal of removing the stigma of how having "plastic surgery" doesn't make you any less real, but instead is a tool you can use to help you look on the outside, how you feel on the inside. We talk all things fillers, face wash, sexual health, body positivity and the newest service available that even Kim Kardashian is using.

On today's episode we talk about Intuitive eating. By definition: Intuitive Eating is an approach developed to help people heal from the side effects of chronic dieting. Our society today is full of fad diets, quick fixes and conflicting information about food. So, finding a healthy relationship with food is not an easy feat.

Chelsi has recently started working on her relationship with food with the goal of healing her body from the inside out. For her, after years of yo-yo dieting and changing her eating habits for the purpose of weight loss, she started to take notice that her health was suffering. She realized she did not know how to eat to support her body or be optimally functional. Instead she was eating only for the purpose of looking good.

Brittany discusses how emotional eating had more of an impact on her life when she suffered the loss of her Grandmother, which led to her signing up to compete in a body building competition. While preparing for her competition, Brittany went from ~195lbs to ~135lbs in just over three months, which by the way is not sustainable, causing her to suffer from disordered eating. Brittany talks about how competing has changed the way she looks at food and the difficulties she has with finding a balance.

In today's episode we're talking about the excuses we catch ourselves in that are ultimately sabotaging our success and how you can actively become aware of and overcome your excuses. 

Ultimately, our excuses are a product of our fear. When we are afraid to step into vulnerability based on fear of judgment, failure, imperfection, etc., we become afraid and in that fear create excuses to protect our self.
