Only The Bold

In Episode 005 with Rachel Varga BScN, RN, CAN, (@rachelvargaofficial) we talk about why we're so nervous about "aging well." It's a pressure experienced disproportionally by femmes to maintain a youthful radiance as we get older. 

But how is that actually achieved and how do we sift through the confusing waters of advertising claims, celebrity endorsements, and fear-mongering to figure out what it means to age in our cultures.

Our guest today has built a successful practice helping people navigate through beauty, aging, and the health of their skin.

EP004 with the fabulous, Vinny Welsby AKA Fierce Fatty (they/them). In this episode, we dig deep into fatphobia to ask, “why are we so afraid of fat?” Diet culture is something we eat (no pun intended), sleep, and breathe, it’s in the commercials we see, the magazines we read, and in our workplaces and doctor’s offices. Unlearning takes courage but also raw and honest conversations about the relationship between fat and health, the psychology of dieting, and the role of business and politics in upholding these oppressive systems.

If you think about how much mental space you’ve given to thinking about your body and your weight, then you add those minutes up over your life, you’ve probably spent years of precious capacity worrying, trying to fix, and feeling unworthy. That’s why this conversation is so important because Vinnyis such an amazing force in self-acceptance.

You’re going to love this episode!

About Vinny:  Vinny Welsby (they/them) is a world-leading expert on dismantling fatphobia and diet culture, TEDx speaker, best-selling author, and non-binary fatty! They went from being homeless, abused with self-esteem that was achingly low into the courageous fat activist and change maker they are today. Victoria helps people fall in love with themselves and is dedicated to shifting the way society views fat bodies.

EP003 with Lianne Saffer (@liannesaffer) on why cancer isn't a fluffy pink "journey," emotionally abusive ex-husbands, and learning to trust your gut and bet on yourself to create the life that's meaningful to you. She's a best-selling author, a wife, mother, writer, fitness instructor, hairstylist, life coach, and advocate for helping people live a loud and authentic life and she's one of the few who really tells it like it is, boils and all.

Her new memoir,Please Don't Send Me Flowersis a raw, real, and honest account of finding her way out of an emotionally abusive marriage, finding the same-sex woman of her dreams, and then finding out how to survive a very aggressive form of cancer.

Our conversation was so inspiring and real.

EP001 with Nicole Sachs LCSW (@nicolesachslcsw) on a new way to understand CHRONIC PAIN. We get real about where pain comes from, (which is shocking to say the least) and the connection with our brains and repressed emotions. Pain is taboo because it leaves you isolated in your experience and if you try to share what you're going through people can't understand and get sick of listening. 

Her methodology helps release the root of what's causing pain and it's really fascinating.

If you've been living in pain I can guarantee you this episode will spark something in you.

About Nicole: Her superpower is healing and understanding pain. She’s speaker, writer, podcaster, and psychotherapist who has dedicated her life to treating chronic pain and conditions in a miraculous way. Between her book,The Meaning of Truth, and her course,Freedom From Chronic Pain she’s helped hundreds of thousands of people overcome real medical conditions to go on living free from pain. Now, if you’re curious how it all works, you can listen  every Friday to her wildly successful podcast with over a million downloadsThe Cure for Chronic Pain to hear these live healings in action.
