The Garden of Belonging Podcast

This is a brief solo episode to close out season 3. Sharing with you some thoughts on self-trust, what has been supportive for me and some new lenses on it that have shown up recently.

I share about:

• Self-trust as foundational to belonging

Thank you for listening this season! If you know anyone who might benefit from listening, please share it with them. I appreciate any help getting the word out especially since I've left social media for the most part.

I'll be taking a pause while I prepare season 4 for you. Meanwhile, the best way to keep in touch with what I'm up to is by subscribing to my newsletter (link below).

Olya is an intuitive, teacher and artist based in Moscow, Russia. She is super passionate about us all living as our true, eternal, «full-size» selves. On her journey in life she has been motivated and led by her intuition, progressively learning to trust it more and more - in her personal life, in her physical healing journey and in finding her professional path in life.

Note: This conversation was recorded in late 2019

Today's guest is Tara Mixon. Tara is a food freedom health coach. She believes we are dynamic and complicated beings, and our wellbeing arises from more than the right diet and culturally accepted body shape. That we need to shift the focus from food to who are we as eaters, to who we are beyond the body. Tara came to this work after practicing pharmacy for over a decade, and having her own journey with bulimia. She understands that health and healing is a deep, complicated, long and holistic journey. She believes we need to learn to love ourselves the way we innately love others.

• Self-trust and the ability to listen to our inner voice while tuning out all the external noise

Now a certified mindset coach, NLP, hypnosis and Timeline Therapy practitioner and after being mentored by the most renowned coaches, she coaches clients from all over the world, in English, French and Spanish, runs workshops and gives talks. Nothing makes her happier than seeing her clients go from self doubt and stuck to self confident and thriving.
