Marriage and relationships can be deeply affected by the financial ebbs and flows that come with entrepreneurship and that often show up as competing for time with a spouse.Examples include:How do you handle conversations with your spouse if they aren't on board with your business or think it's taking too much of your time?Or if they think since you're "working from home" you should be doing _____ instead of _____.What if your spouse thinks your time spent on your business would be better off at a different job?Or if there just aren't enough hours in the day to get it all done between your business, your family, your marriage and your other responsibilities and you need HELP from your spouse but don't know how to ask for it.On this episode with marriage coach extraordinaire, Dr. Chavonne Perotte, you're getting strategies for handling all of these situations so you can end the resentment and time wars permanently.Enjoy.Connect with Andrea Nordling:

African American entrepreneurship has a long and fascinating history in Los Angeles. The period from the 1920s to the 1960s was the era of “race enterprises,” in which black entrepreneurs specifically catered to black consumers. Collectively these enterprises supported a growing middle class and one of the highest rates of African American homeownership in the country. As rich as this history is, so little is discussed in regards to Black business in Los Angeles. So MHD and co-host Chavonne bring it to the surface in an enriching conversation with independent public historian, writer, and researcher Yolanda Hester!Yolanda Hester is an independent public historian, writer, and researcher. She is interested in highlighting lesser documented stories and helping them find their way to the historical record. Her work has included exploring the history of Black business in LA (Community and Commerce) for The Center For Oral History Research at UCLA, consulting on the history of The Shindana Toy Factory for KCET (Shindana Toy Company: Changing the American Doll Industry), as well as projects for the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs and The National Urban League. She currently manages the oral history project for Arthur Ashe Legacy at UCLA. Her most recent essay The Legacy of Shindana Toys: Black Play and Black Power can be found in The American Journal of Play.

In this episode of #PourIntoMyCup, I talk with Ronicha Palmer, blogger at The Hero Is Within. Our conversations ranged from mental health in the black community and learning to break down the habits formed from childhood. We talk self love, and the journey to love yourself and finding yourself. Lastly, the benefits of speaking words of affirmation to combat the negative voices in your head, such as self-doubt or fear.

Embodiment for the Rest of Us - Season 3, Episode 12: Lisa Daughters and Fawn McCool   Chavonne (she/her) and Jenn (she/her) interviewed Lisa Daughters (she/her) and Fawn McCool (she/her) about their embodiment journeys.   Lisa Daughters (she/her) is a HAES-aligned fat-positive, LGBTQIA+ allied, social justice informed Expressive Arts Therapist. She works with fat folx, LGBTQIA+ community, grief/loss, fertility struggles and pregnancy loss, relationship challenges, family dynamics - these are all near and dear to her. She has been serving clients as a professional counselor for 12 years, working with a variety of settings and concerns. She works from a person-centered approach, using humor, mindfulness, and acceptance as tools of healing and transformation. She believes in the need to broaden our view from seeing individual struggles as collective, moving towards solutions that foster interdependence and equity. She approaches counseling as a co-creation, and considers her role to be an insightful companion through the process. She trusts the inherent wholeness of each individual. I have specific training in Expressive Arts Therapy, which utilizes art-making as therapeutic.  Lisa is strongly anti-diet and diet-culture. She is involved in the fat liberation movement. And it's impossible to talk about body politics without talking about racism, misogyny, and ableism. She is anti-capitalist, and anti-racist. She loves animals and spent years before becoming a therapist working with animals. She believes current social and economic structures have stripped our sense of community and our emotional experiences have been villainized and pathologized to the point that mental health is a growing challenge. She thinks it's a disservice to focus only on individual health without also addressing community. She does not believe in the paternalistic dynamic that she has seen in the mental health world, and she thinks to do my work well she has to be continually learning. * Fawn McCool (she/her pronouns), is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a private practice based in Portland, Oregon. Her therapeutic approach is warm, nurturing, collaborative, engaged, and nerdy. She loves brain science so there MIGHT be some mention of neural plasticity or blaming of neural pathways along the way. She will shame the patriarchy, never you. As an LCSW, she has worked in a variety of settings providing skilled trauma-informed services to families, women and children. She offers clinical therapeutic services in Tigard, OR and enjoys working with a wide variety of issues including but not limited to: trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, perinatal/postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, infant loss, and fertility issues . She received her Masters of Social Work degree at California State University, Los Angeles in 2006. Her professional credentials include certification in Interpersonal Neurobiology through Portland State University and is Ample & Rooted trained. Additionally, she has had the honor of presenting at several professional conferences focused on Neonatal Intensive Care Unit experiences, neuroscience & birth trauma, and behavioral health counseling in school based health centers. She is an anti-racist, LGBTQ+ affirming, and HAES provider.    Content Warning: discussion of privilege, discussion of diet culture, discussion of fatphobia, discussion of racism, discussion of fatphobia in the career space, discussion of mental health, discussion of chronic medical issues 40:28-53:29: Chavonne's audio goes a bit wonky   Trigger Warnings:  34:22: Fawn mentions Noom and Ozempic 49:42: Lisa uses the words “crazy” and “nutty” in a way that is ableist   The captions for this episode can be found at  https://embodimentfortherestofus.com/season-3/season-3-episode-12-lisa-daughters-and-fawn-mccool/#captions   A few highlights: 7:08: Lisa and Fawn share their understanding of “the rest of us” and how they are a part of that, as well as their privileges.

In this final installment of our 3 part series Love and Alcohol, Dr. Chavonne and I explore the importance of setting boundaries and making conscious choices in relationships, especially when dealing with issues like alcohol consumption. We emphasizes the significance of personal responsibility and the freedom to choose what is best for oneself in a relationship. We discuss strategies for handling situations where someone may not support your choices or challenges them. The conversation highlights the role of communication, patience, and the iterative process in making important decisions within a relationship.Key Takeaways:Boundaries as Personal Standards: Boundaries are about setting personal standards for behavior within a relationship, and they should reflect what feels right for you, not judgments or controls over your partner.Ownership of Your Choices: Recognize that staying in a relationship, even if it involves a behavior you find challenging (e.g., alcohol consumption), is a choice you make. Own your decision and acknowledge that it's independent of your partner's actions.Patience and Iteration: When addressing significant issues like changes in household dynamics, practice patience in your conversations. Have progressive and iterative discussions, allowing both partners to share their thoughts and concerns over time.Listening Sessions: Implement listening sessions where each partner takes turns sharing their thoughts without interruptions or debates. This structured approach can facilitate understanding and productive communication.Focus on Personal Growth: While addressing relationship dynamics, prioritize personal growth and well-being. Shift your attention to your own development and happiness independently of your partner's choices.Remember that relationships involve ongoing growth and change, and open, patient, and loving communication is key to navigating these transformations together.Please check out Dr. Chavonne and all of her amazing offerings including the episode Matthew and I recored for her podcast about our experience in her program, the Marriage Upgrade.

In part 2 of 3, I continue the conversation with Dr. Chavonne as we  discuss the importance of setting boundaries and making conscious choices in relationships affected by alcohol consumption. We emphasize that boundaries are a means to protect oneself and are not about controlling or judging the other person's behavior. We explore how to navigate situations where one partner's drinking habits cause discomfort and suggest ways to address these challenges without resorting to ultimatums.Key Takeaways:Boundaries in relationships are about protecting yourself, not controlling the other person's behavior.Setting boundaries involves making choices that prioritize your emotional well-being.Ultimatums should be reframed as personal choices rather than threats.Examining your own needs and triggers before addressing your partner's behavior can lead to more productive conversations.It's essential to own your decision to stay in a relationship and focus on the reasons that matter most to you rather than trying to change your partner's behavior.Please check out Dr. Chavonne and all of her amazing offerings including the episode Matthew and I recored for her podcast about our experience in her program, the Marriage Upgrade.

In this first episode of a three part series, I welcome my personal marriage coach, the brilliant Dr. Chavonne to discuss navigating relationships and alcohol change. We explore the complexities of relationships and how they can impact personal growth, especially when dealing with alcohol-related changes. Dr. Chavonne shares insights on making changes within a partnership, managing a partner's reactions, setting boundaries, and emphasizes the importance of running your own race when it comes to personal transformation. This episode is a note taker and goes beyond just intimate relationships Key Takeaways:Individual Journeys: Making changes related to alcohol should primarily be an individual journey, even within a partnership, as each person has their unique experiences and reasons for change.Managing Partner's Reactions: When one partner starts making changes, the other may rebel or react differently. Patience and acceptance are crucial during the adjustment period.Transitions and Boundaries: Recognize that transitions are part of personal growth. Setting boundaries and allowing an adjustment period can help maintain harmony in the relationship.Tolerating Negative Emotion: It's essential to build the capacity to tolerate negative emotions without relying on changing circumstances entirely for emotional well-being.Non-Attachment and Authenticity: When discussing changes with a partner, do so authentically but without attachment to their immediate understanding or acceptance, allowing them to process at their pace.Don't miss the next two episodes where we dive even further into the dynamics of navigating love and alcohol. It's an opportunity to dive deeper into your relationship with yourself and your loved ones.

Today on the podcast, I'm continuing the series of conversations with experts in all areas of life. This week, Dr. Chavonne Perotte is here and we're talking all about your marriage.Dr. Chavonne is a life and marriage coach who helps couples develop the mindset and skills they need to create happy marriages and partnerships. She also has a doctorate from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, where she focused her research on communication and intimate partnerships. In 25 years of marriage, I've been through a lot of different stages - no kids, babies, young kids and now the teen years. We're diving into it all.If you've experienced a moment in your marriage where you thought, “I really don't know if we're going to make it,” you are not alone. Dr. Chavonne calls this the secret thought that everyone sometimes has but is afraid to say out loud. She teaches her clients that there will be seasons and stages to marriage where you might question things. But that doesn't have to be a problem. It's what you do with those thoughts that matters.Why you aren't getting the help you need from your partnerIn a relationship, both people are likely operating from models that they had growing up. Often, in couples with young or school-aged children, this looks like a dynamic of over-functioning and under-functioning. One person is doing more and (intentionally or not) creating a situation where the other person then does less. As women, we often feel uncomfortable asking for and getting exactly what we want. When it comes to asking for help from our partner, we might make it mean that we aren't good enough as a wife or mom. We might feel guilty for accepting help. Somewhere along the line, we learned that it's not ok for us to have the things that we need.To have the dynamic and support you want, you first need to define what you really want and what partnership looks like to you. Then, make requests and advocate for what you want.What do you need?As a mom, when you're feeling overwhelmed with all the things - parenting, home, work - it can be hard to define exactly what it is you want and need from your partner.A request and a complaint are not the same thing, but sometimes we complain to our partner and want them to just fix it without us ever asking for what we really need.The first step is figuring out what it is you want. It doesn't have to be perfect, and it doesn't have to be the one thing that solves everything. Start by looking for your trigger moments. These will be good clues to where you need some support.What are the things that constantly trigger me? Where am I feeling agitated?What would I need in this moment? What feels off in this partnership? What's a reasonable request that is honoring for both of us? How to make requests of your partnerDr. Chavonne teaches her clients a simple formula for making a request. Share what you're feeling, state what you would like instead and make a request.Sometimes, your partner will say no to your request. And that's ok. It's a conversation between the two of you to figure out what works for you both.Don't make assumptions about why they said no or didn't follow through in a certain way. Get curious and continue the conversation. Try to assume the best about your partner. Assume that they're in it with you, that they want to support you and for you both to be happy.Go back to what you want out of it. What is the need that you're trying to get met? Maybe your request doesn't need to be executed in a certain way to get the benefit you're looking for. Are there other solutions that will still give you what you need and that your partner is willing to do? Dr. Chavonne and I could have talked for...

Embodiment for the Rest of Us - Season 2, Episode 10: Kymber Stephenson   Chavonne (she/her) and Jenn (she/her) interviewed Kymber Stephenson (she/her) about her embodiment journey.   Kymber Stephenson is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist living and working in Colorado. Her experience began with a love of food which led her to pursue a degree in Culinary Arts from Johnson & Wales University. As her love of science and helping people wove with that initial path, she continued on to a Bachelor of Science in Culinary Nutrition with a dual concentration in clinical dietetics and culinary food science. From there, her background spanned diverse roles across the food, nutrition, and healthcare sectors as she went on to ground in medical nutrition therapy.    Kymber is especially passionate about disordered eating management and prevention. In this vein, she focuses on educating clients about the multi-faceted ways history, marketing, food systems, culture, psychology, and body image affect health and relationships to nutrition, food, and body. She works with clients to restore & build their relationship with food, acknowledging not only its nourishing properties, but truly embracing its comforts, tradition, and fun! Kymber is a strong believer in a whole person approach, embracing integrated body image counseling which often goes far deeper than simply body or image.    Working in a client-guided manner and Health at Every Size-informed, she strives to help each unique person reach their idea of peace and satisfaction in their bodies and their overall lives. Kymber's driving philosophy is that all people deserve equitable access to quality food, evidence-based nutrition education, informed consent, and bodily autonomy regardless of status or background.   Socials: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kymberstephenson @sidebysidenutrition    Content Warning: discussion of privilege, discussion of diet culture, discussion of ableism, discussion of healthism   Trigger Warnings: 49:18: Kymber discusses Lindo Bacon's work before more awareness of the harm that they have caused in their work came to light in the first two weeks of March 2022 here, here, here, and here among others (with updates here and here) (this episode was recorded in April 2022)  1:13:44: Chavonne discusses how white supremacy culture impacts her eating behaviors   The captions for this episode can be found at  https://embodimentfortherestofus.com/season-2/season-2-episode-10-kymber-stephenson/#captions/   A few highlights: 2:49: Kymber shares her understanding of embodiment and her own embodiment journey 14:54: Kymber discusses how the pandemic affected her embodiment practices  34:54: Kymber shares her understanding of “the rest of us” and how she is a part of that, as well as her privileges 48:20: Kymber discusses her take on IE, HAES® and AND 1:26:06: Kymber shares how listeners can make a difference based on this conversation as well as where to be found and what's next for her Links from this episode: ASDAH's response to Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' Evidence Analysis Library (1) ASDAH's response to Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' Evidence Analysis Library (2) Health At Every Size® (HAES®) (especially the FAQ for the origin of the HAES® movement) Intuitive Eating Kyriarchy Laziness Does Not Exist Nikki Haggett Sick Enough Social Determinants of Health White Supremacy Culture   Music: “Bees and Bumblebees (Abeilles et Bourdons​)​, Op. 562” by Eugène Dédé through the Creative Commons License   Please follow us on social media: Website: embodimentfortherestofus.com Twitter: @embodimentus Instagram: @embodimentfortherestofus

Embodiment for the Rest of Us - Season 2, Episode 7: Jennifer Radke   Chavonne (she/her) and Jenn (she/her) interviewed Jenn Radke (she/her) about her embodiment journey.    Jennifer Radke is the host of the podcast, Fat Girl Book Club, and a podcasting coach. Her body image journey started with sneaking cookie dough out of the deep freezer at the age of eight, moved through a bunch of different diets, at least three goal weight celebrations, two bodybuilding competitions and culminated in an eating disorder. When she finally figured out that she would never diet her way to self-love, she started reading. As she read, so many things began to fall into place and now her focus is on using the podcast to help others see that their body is something to cherished and loved.    Social Media:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fatgirlbookclubpod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063705813357 Fat Girl Book Club can be found on your podcast listening app of choice Podcasting Website: https://www.fearlesspodcasting.co   The captions for this episode can be found at: https://embodimentfortherestofus.com/season-2/season-2-episode-7-jenn-radke/#captions/   Content Warning: discussion of privilege, discussion of diet culture, discussion of eating disorders and disordered eating, mention of mental health struggles, discussion of ableism, discussion of co opting of BIPOC practices, discussion of healthism, discussion of weight loss surgery    Trigger Warnings: 5:06: Jenn R. discusses her eating disorder history  9:46: Jenn R. uses the word “crazy” in a way that may be ableist  10:21: Jenn R. discusses Lindo Bacon's work before more awareness of the harm that they have caused in their work came to light in the first two weeks of March 2022 here, here, here, and here among others (with updates here and here) (this episode was recorded in early March 2022)  25:43: Jenn R. discusses Virgie Tovar and her work (this author is now known to have caused harm to superfat and infinifat people, so there is no link to her work)  33:15: Jenn R. shares her experience with fitness magazines and body comparison  37:37: Jenn R. discusses Lindo Bacon's work before more awareness of the harm that they have caused (see note above)  37:57: Jenn R. discusses Caroline Dooner and her work (this author is now known to have caused harm due to her anti-vaxx stance and overall racist rhetoric, so there is no link to their work)  46:00: Jenn J. discusses Marilyn Manson and their book (this author is now known to have caused harm to intimate partners, so there is no link to their work)  51:31: Chavonne discusses Lindo Bacon's work before more awareness of the harm that they have caused (see note above)  52:52: Chavonne discusses Anita Johnston and her work (this author's book is now known to have caused harm due to its weight stigma, so there is no link to their work)  1:03:10: Jenn R. discusses weight loss surgery  1:05:08: Jenn J. discusses the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' Evidence Analysis Library  1:14:03: Jenn J. discusses Lindo Bacon's work before more awareness of the harm that they have caused (see note above)  A few highlights:  4:31: Jenn R. shares her understanding of embodiment and her own embodiment journey  16:13: Jenn R. discusses their understanding of “the rest of us” and how she is a part of that, as well as her privileges  31:14 Jenn R. shares how reading or bibliotherapy can help those moving toward embodiment  57:14: Jenn R. discusses how hosting a podcast about, by, and for fat people has enhanced her connection with embodiment  1:03:51 : Jenn R. discusses where HAES® and IE fall short  1:20:23: Jenn R. shares how listeners can make a difference based on this conversation  1:25:21: Jenn R. discusses where to be found and what's next for her  Links from this episode:  Ableism Absolute Fat vs. Relative Fat Belly of the Beast Big Big Love Big Fit Girl The Body Is Not An Apology Body of Truth Deb Burgard Decolonizing Wellness Dietland Don't Let It Get You Down FGBC Episode with Amanda Murphy FGBC Episode with Maggie Landes, MD FGBC Episode with Shadoe Ball 1 FGBC Episode with Shadoe Ball 2 The Fat Lady Sings Fatness Spectrum Fattily Ever After Fitness for Every Body Hanne Blank Happy Fat Health At Every Size® (HAES®) (especially the FAQ for the origin of the HAES movement)  Hunger Intuitive Eating Intuitive Eating (the book) Killer Fat (TW: full title has the “O word”) Dr. Lisa Folden Lucy Aphramor My Mother's Body Poodle Science Shadoe Ball Social Determinants of Health Sonya Renee Taylor Spoon Theory Tiana Dodson Train Happy Unashamed Music: “Bees and Bumblebees (Abeilles et Bourdons​)​, Op. 562” by Eugène Dédé through the Creative Commons License    Please follow us on social media:  Website: embodimentfortherestofus.com Twitter: @embodimentus Instagram: @embodimentfortherestofus

There is a strong connection among stress, anxiety, and ADHD when it comes to emotional eating. Most of us live with chronic stress and anxiety and most of the time, we don't pay it much attention because we've normalized it. This was certainly true for me in my early 20's. Back then, I was chronically stressed about everything like being accepted at work, my weight, my appearance, my skin, being in or out of a relationship, money, etc., and to cope I used food as my comfort.  In this podcast, I share what I've learned since becoming a life coach that has helped me immensely. I am certain that it will help you too.   In this episode, you'll learn: exactly how anxiety is created  a holistic way to deal with it how I stopped my emotional eating caused by anxiety and undiagnosed ADHD   FEATURED ON THE SHOW — Ready to Stop.

African American entrepreneurship has a long and fascinating history in Los Angeles. The period from the 1920s to the 1960s was the era of “race enterprises,” in which black entrepreneurs specifically catered to black consumers. Collectively these enterprises supported a growing middle class and one of the highest rates of African American homeownership in the country. As rich as this history is, so little is discussed in regards to Black business in Los Angeles. So MHD and co-host Chavonne bring it to the surface in an enriching conversation with independent public historian, writer, and researcher Yolanda Hester! Yolanda Hester is an independent public historian, writer, and researcher. She is interested in highlighting lesser documented stories and helping them find their way to the historical record. Her work has included exploring the history of Black business in LA (Community and Commerce) for The Center For Oral History Research at UCLA, consulting on the history of The Shindana Toy Factory for KCET (Shindana Toy Company: Changing the American Doll Industry), as well as projects for the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs and The National Urban League. She currently manages the oral history project for Arthur Ashe Legacy at UCLA. Her most recent essay The Legacy of Shindana Toys: Black Play and Black Power can be found in The American Journal of Play.
