After reading Patriarchy Stress Disorder, By Dr Valerie Rein this summer, while simultaneously feeling the world crumbling in around us with regards to women's health (nationally and globally) and especially with regards to our body autonomy, I felt heard!

The Heart of Your Home {With Jules Blane Davis} So many of the ways we live and love begin in our kitchens.And, how we were or weren't nourished in our childhood kitchens shapes every aspect of our lives today.Our kitchens can become a place to nourish, gather, connect, heal and most of all, share and create the ongoing stories of our lives.It is in the kitchen where we can also find our way home to our true selves. In my conversation with Jules Blaine Davis (AKA The Kitchen Healer), in this brand new episode of SATIATE, Jules invites us all into the messy beauty of her healing kitchen and asks, “What are we really hungry for?”Find out more about Jules: Visit: julesblainedavis.com Jules's new book: The Kitchen Healer Find Me at: Sue Van Raes: www.bouldernutrition.com/Boulder Nutrition Retreats: www.bouldernutrition.com/retreatsFollow Me on Instagram: www.instagram.com/bouldernutrition/

When I came across the work of the Red School, with Alexandra and Sjanie, and their brand new book, Wise Power ~ Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose, and Belonging, I exhaled a sigh of relief. This radical new story of menopause is just the medicine my peri-menopausal soul has been craving. Honestly, I've been wanting to wrap myself up in the pages of this book (I am so comforted there) as peri-menopause continues to invite me deeper and deeper within myself. I am thrilled to have preordered my copy, read every single page, and now to share these incredible women and their brilliant teachings with you on SATIATE.

Our sense of belonging is considered one of the most important drivers of our well-being.  According to a Harvard study on health and aging, connection with others delays both our mental and physical decline. I am so happy to share with you today's SATIATE guest, because her work (and her brand new book!) speaks to just this.  Dr. Gena Cox is the author of Leading Inclusion, an organizational psychologist, executive coach, and speaker. She advises DE&I leaders who want to build the inclusive environments all people deserve. Her work is designed to help us all feel empowered and inclusive in all forms of our leadership.

How we empathize is a deeper look into our capacity to understand and relate to what another person is experiencing. When talking with my friend Wendy De Rosa on this months episode of SATIATE, I learned some clear distinctions between being overly empathic and being an empowered empath​. The former, feeling overly sensitive, disconnected from our sense of self, and most often totally drained. The ladder, feeling what is true and reclaiming our intuitive power in doing so. Similarly, when our empathic nature (especially as women) becomes overly empathic and out of balance, it can deeply effect our relationship with food. While empathy is a natural human response –– feeling the energy around us and connecting with another's emotions –– taking on these emotions as our own (feeling it as if it is happening to us) can be where problems arise.Becoming an empowered empath is where we transform our empathic nature to become our greatest superpower.

As many of you know, over the past many months, I have been cooking up my next book. If you have dabbled in the book writing process, you might know that there are many hoops to jump through –– creating clarity, a book proposal, sample chapters, finding an agent, platform growth, submissions, and hopefully a wonderful editor and publisher to publish the final book. (Plus, plenty of book launch strategies and promotions once the book comes out!) Book writing is a process that for me, has required a lot of patience, resiliency, tons of growth and transformation, and especially steadfastness in keeping on with the vision and process, even if it feels hard. On my journey, there have been both many obstacles to overcome and many milestones to celebrate –– some big and some small. If you are curious about my book story, I have a new SATIATE episode for you. Join me as I speak with my very own book coach, Joelle Hann (AKA The Brooklyn Book Doctor), all about my book journey.

LISTEN AND HEAR: ~ What it was like growing up in the matriarchal society of Guam for her entire childhood, and how matriarchal society deeply influenced her work. ~ The ways in which universal body image messaging in our culture has been delivered up in such a raw and vulnerable way, leaving so many women with struggle and strife. ~ How each of us uncovers what we can relate to within age old myth, folktale, and story, based on our own experiences, stories and struggles. ~ A real life story telling by Dr. Anita Johnston that you don't want to miss.  ~ How sharing our own stories (when we are ready) can be so healing and even become someone else's survival guide. We could all use a little extra TLC these days. Get comfy, sit back and listen to these stories as food for your soul and your own path to wholeness. This is absolutely one of my favorite SATIATE episodes to date, and wow!  I cannot wait for you to listen.

For much of my life, people pleasing kept me from speaking my authentic voice, carving out time to care for myself, and living my authentic truth and life. I know I am not alone. Do you notice yourself afraid of hurting other people's feelings? Avoiding conflict? Having difficulty saying “no”? Over-extending? Over-apologizing? Conforming to the people around you? Ignoring your own needs for the sake of others? If these, or any other people pleasing tendencies, are your modus operandi, today's brand new episode on SATIATE is especially for you. Nancy Levin is a best-selling author and master life coach. She is also the former event director for Hay House Publishing of twelve years, and as she says, she had a front row seat and a backstage pass to all the most recognized speakers, best-selling authors, and teachers in the areas of self-empowerment, wellness, and motivation. Nancy is the founder of Levin Life Coach Academy offering in-depth coaching, training and certification programs designed to support students, and their clients, to make themselves a priority by honoring their self-worth, dissolving outdated obstacles and setting boundaries that stick so they can vividly live in center stage of their own life. LISTEN AND HEAR: ~ How her own personal crisis led her to being able to finally embody the incredible teachings that surrounded her in her daily career (such as those from Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay, Debbie Ford, and Cheryl Richardson). ~ How we all believe there is some part of ourselves we need to hide in order to be loved and accepted, yet, all most of us want us to be loved for the truth of who we are –– and what to do about it. ~ How it is not always WHAT we do, but rather WHY we do it when it comes to boundaries. ~ What a healthy boundary is and how we can learn to set boundaries –– including the very first step (hint: it's not what you think!). ~ The impactful relationship between boundaries and self-love. ~ What you can gain on the other side of setting healthy boundaries –– and it is worth finding out!

When our mental health suffers it takes a toll on our bodies –– specifically on our adrenal health. When our bodies continue to perceive an imminent threat, we release stress hormones that can lead to burn out, brain fog, extreme fatigue, sugar cravings, overwhelm, restlessness, low energy, and metabolic sluggishness. It is no surprise, as of late, that these symptoms have worsened far and wide across our population. If you are experiencing mental health challenges and/or burn out, heightened stress, or any symptoms listed above, be sure to listen to this weeks brand new SATIATE episode: "On Healing Adrenal Fatigue" with Dr. Erin Kinney.  Listen and Hear: *What causes adrenal fatigue *How to recognize adrenal fatigue in your own body and life *How to identify the internal/external factors contributing to adrenal fatigue *The relationship between cortisol and melatonin and how it plays out in your sleep quality, energy, inflammation, focus, cravings, and healing *Nourishment principles (that go beyond food) to consider in your healing journey *Advice on how to get enough rest and reset your circadian rhythm Now is the time to amplify your self-care, to deepen the connection and community in your life, and to remember to ask for support when you need it.   Find out more about Dr. Kinney: Website: https://drerinkinney.com/ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dr-kinney-show/id1547023817 Learn more about Boulder Nutrition here: www.bouldernutrition.com/ Sue on Instagram: www.instagram.com/bouldernutrition/ Sue on Facebook: www.facebook.com/yoginibliss

Listening to each vulnerable share underscored the human condition in how WE get in our own way— through our internal dialogue, our habitual patterns, our self-aggressive thoughts, our limiting beliefs, and our fears. It is clear that upgrading our relationship to ourselves (our thoughts about ourselves, how we talk to ourselves, and how we unconditionally love ourselves) is where we can reclaim our greatest power. The way we narrate our lives shapes what our lives become.  When we turn this conversation to food and body, most of us know how complex this can get. What we do with food is what we do with life –– there is no separation.  In honor of valentines weekend and getting out of our own way, I have a very special episode of SATIATE for you. [PODCAST] Practicing Unconditional Self-Love ~ With Michelle Hannah Listen and Hear: *A truer (and impactful) definition of unconditional self-love *How to use the 4 B's (breakup; breakdown; breakthrough; breakout) on your self-love journey *What are the Self Vows and how to take them *How to make your self-care an expression of unconditional self-love Find out more about Michelle Hannah: https://www.michellerhannah.com/ Check out her two books: The Self Vows: Seven Vows That Will Change Your Life: https://www.amazon.com/Self-Vows-Seven-That-Change/dp/1532094469 The Breaking Point: A Full-Circle Journey: Living Life Beyond all the Broken Pieces: https://www.amazon.com/Breaking-Point-Full-Circle-Journey-Living/dp/1469777053/ref=pd_bxgy_img_1/137-0275251-9091644?pd_rd_w=QBnnl&pf_rd_p=6b3eefea-7b16-43e9-bc45-2e332cbf99da&pf_rd_r=NGB5K92NAFGKPEMARWNM&pd_rd_r=e9fcbcba-72a4-48a7-bc80-d96fcd734c2b&pd_rd_wg=0vx0j&pd_rd_i=1469777053&psc=1 Learn more about Boulder Nutrition here: www.bouldernutrition.com/ Sue on Instagram: www.instagram.com/bouldernutrition/ Sue on Facebook: www.facebook.com/yoginibliss

Making peace with your plate is not about guilt, restriction, body shaming, or attaching your personal value in the world to impossible food and body standards. Making peace with your plate is much more about learning to eat to feel how you want to feel, to being able to track into the intelligence of your body (including hunger and fullness), to find pleasure with food that makes you feel good, and loving and nourishing yourself with your eating. Peace begins with peace. Self compassion starts with small compassionate moments, thoughts, and gestures. Healing happens with love and kindness. What if we ring in the new year by appreciating our body and rejecting diet culture? If you are looking for some ways to take this even deeper, be sure to listen to this weeks podcast episode where my guest, Athina Crilley, shares what can happen when we give into diet culture (including her personal story and all the damage that ensued) rather than learning to eat to feel how we want to feel, be present with our feelings, and create capacity to hold it all. LISTEN AND HEAR: What years of eating disorder recovery, therapy and personal transformation taught Athina about herself, her eating, and her happiness The practices Athina used in healing her mindset –– her primary approach to healing her eating disorder What inspired her to write her book: Diary Of An Anorexic ~ A Recovery Journey How she uses her robust social media platform to promote healing our relationship to food and our bodies.

After talking with my client, Taylor Patrice, I learned that the most needed items in the German Afghan refugee camps she is working in are underwear, feminine hygiene products and hijabs. That said, this issue does not lie merely in the fact that people need bloomers. While these items are not only significant to their comprehensive health, they also play a crucial role in the physical and sexual safety of refugees. Hijabs too? Yes hijabs too. This is where cultural understanding and nuance comes into play. If you want to learn more about women and children's comprehensive health issues as they relate to displacement, and how we can help all the new neighbors we will be gaining stateside from Afghanistan before the end of the year, be sure to listen to today's episode of SATIATE This is to remind us all that WE can make a difference in our world (big or small).

Something you should know about me:  I am a recovering busy body. I have spent the majority of my life rushing, pushing myself, focusing on my productivity and feeling the pull of the ever present hamster wheel. I could blame it on my many years of competitive sports, single parenting or entrepreneurship, but according to my mother, I came out of the womb like this. Recently, I caught myself in a relapse...because old patterns tend to die hard. That said, as I get older, I am learning more and more how to catch these mini-set backs swiftly. Life has taught me a lot about what it takes for me to show up most fully for myself and for the people in my life. Rather than the hamster wheel approach to life, how about the much more enticing magic carpet ride? Listen and learn how I find my magic carpet amid it all.
