The Captivatingly Confident Podcast

Disordered eating isn't talked about all that much. It's a series of behaviors that involve food labels, rules and shame that keep you feeling stuck when it comes to getting healthy or changing the way you eat. In this episode, we look at the most common signs of disordered eating and how to practice awareness of them so you can identify the behaviors when they happen.

The journey of confidence is like climbing a mountain. It's intimidating, daunting, hard work, exhausting and often fraught with perils. But once you get to the summit and see the 360 view of what your life could look like, you can't help but run down the other side.

Being honest and real is something I deeply value and admire. I love learning from those around me. So I thought it would be fun to share some things that I am learning lately!

Why is it so much easier to admit our weaknesses than our strengths? In this episode we talk about how to start the shift and move into a place of self-awareness and appreciation of what makes you amazing.

The Shoulds are the stories, beliefs and rules we pick up throughout our lives. These standards can make it impossible to embrace your true self and show up in your life how you want to. In this episode, we talk about how to identify them and what to do with them to start to un-become who you think you should be and start being who you WANT to be.

These 10 tips are ones that I have found myself recommending to clients over and over again in the last decade. These are also practices that I use myself and have seen amazing results from. These are also especially helpful if you struggle with GI issues!!

Do you feel like you are unworthy of taking a break? Do you feel like you have to earn rest? If so, then this is a must listen! You DESERVE rest. You are ENOUGH just as you are. You are WORTHY of putting your needs first every now and then (if not a majority of the time).

Let's discuss some practical ways you can find rest in your daily routine.

What if you were to take all that time, energy, money and emotion you put toward losing weight and use it to practice self-acceptance and appreciation? Trying to lose weight from a place of self-loathing, disgust, desperation and fear will keep you stuck in a cycle of try-fail, leading to feeling shame and guilt. When you shift to focusing on self-acceptance and appreciation, not only will weight loss not matter as much, but it may even be a bi-product of your naturally healthier choices.
