Stop Stressing Me Out

This week on the podcast we're joined by Isabel Foxen Duke, a health coach who helps women stop feeling crazy around food. So many women are rocking their careers, their love lives, their hobbies, and yet food can still be a huge trigger for them. I might occasionally (cough cough) be one of them.

Isabel breaks down the difference between emotional eating and binge eating, shares with us a little about her journey with food (for the full story listen to her interview on the Food Psych podcast), breaking free from diet culture, and the tangible things that you can do to begin repairing your relationship to food.

Today we're joined by National Geographic Traveler of the Year (2014), Dalene Heck. She's half of the duo, Hecktic Travels, and has been living on the road for the past 8 years. Dalene talks to us about how she and her husband came to sell all their possessions and travel, travel blogging, the media company that they've created, living a life with no regrets, and her recent battle with leukemia. She's in remission, but talks to us about the challenges she's faced and continues to face. It's a vulnerable and courageous interview, and I'm so glad that she has joined us.

Today we're joined by YouTube Fitness Instructor, Lucy Wyndham-Read. With over 13 million views of Lucy's 800+ videos, she's well on her way to achieving her mission to get the world fit. In this interview, Lucy shares with me her experience joining the army at 17, how she handled the loss of her fiance at such a young age, how she set herself apart in a competitive field, body positivity and how her YouTube channel was born.

Karen Gallagher-Burt, affectionately known as KGB, has many roles. Mother of Many. Team Manager. Mother. Wife. Volunteer. Friend. Colleague. Disruptor. I came to know her as a coworker of sorts, and as I've come to know her more fully, she blows me away. We talk about her experience fostering 44 children, the key words to maintain a long, happy marriage, where she believes the non-profit sector is going, the importance of humanity in the face of poverty, and so much more.
