Send us a textIt was wonderful having Amy Vincze on my show.  I had heard about tapping and I even indulged in it shortly but wanted to know more.I found it intriguing that Amy spoke to all children as if they were narcissists.  I tended to disagree, until I understood what she meant.  As children, it is about us.In late college, Amy became bulimic... she was soothing herself from not knowing who she was.  For years she had no clue what was causing it.  At 31 she was diagnosed with breast cancer.  It was not genetic.  So she wondered why she would have it.  Why me? in curiosity, she asked herself.Amy found this amazing tool with a friend.  What is the tool?  Tapping.This is truly interesting and I highly recommend listening to.Thank you, Amy, for sharing this!Coming out of no longer feeling unlovable.You can reach out to Amy by going to www.soarwithtapping.com, and you can check her Soar With Tapping app by going online to your app store, or you can find her by simply Googling Soar With Tapping.Honoured to have had Amy as a guest.Support the show

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 20th of May and here are the headlines.1. India's Global Anti-Terror Diplomacy DriveIndia has launched a major diplomatic outreach, sending seven multi-party delegations to 32 countries to highlight its fight against terrorism, particularly from Pakistani soil. Briefed by the Ministry of External Affairs, the teams will explain India's military response after the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor. PM Modi framed the doctrine as part of a global anti-terror campaign, stating there will be zero tolerance for terror sheltered by “nuclear blackmail.” The goal: convince the world not to equate India, a terror victim, with Pakistan, a terror perpetrator.2. TMC Replaces Yusuf Pathan With Abhishek BanerjeeAfter initially rejecting the Centre's move to include Yusuf Pathan in its foreign outreach delegations, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) has nominated Abhishek Banerjee instead. The switch came after Union Minister Kiren Rijiju spoke to TMC chief Mamata Banerjee. Abhishek, the party's general secretary, will now join the anti-terror diplomatic push. Separately, TMC is sending its own delegation, led by Manas Bhunia, to Jammu and Kashmir to support victims of cross-border terror. Earlier, Pathan, a cricketer-turned-MP, had been named without TMC's consultation, prompting the initial protest.3. Heavy Rains Disrupt Bengaluru; Red Alert IssuedBengaluru faced severe disruptions on Tuesday after intense pre-monsoon thundershowers caused widespread flooding and traffic chaos. The India Meteorological Department has issued a red alert for the city and Karnataka, forecasting heavy rain, thunderstorms, and lightning through May 26. Commuters struggled, with some taking two hours to travel just 7 km. The Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre has echoed warnings of extremely heavy rainfall and advised caution. The relentless downpour left several areas waterlogged, reigniting concerns over the city's poor infrastructure and monsoon preparedness.4. Veteran Nuclear Scientist M R Srinivasan Dies at 95M R Srinivasan, former Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission and a pioneer of India's nuclear program, passed away on Tuesday at age 95. He is survived by his wife and daughter. Srinivasan played a key role in developing India's indigenous nuclear capabilities, working alongside legendary scientist Dr Homi Bhabha. Honoured with the Padma Vibhushan, his death marks the end of a historic era in Indian science. District Collector Lakshmi Bhavya Tanneeru paid floral tributes to the distinguished scientist's mortal remains.5. Netanyahu Offers Conditional End to Gaza WarIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he's willing to end the Gaza war if Hamas agrees to strict terms, including disarming. His statement comes amid rising international pressure, with the UK, France, and Canada threatening sanctions over Israel's latest Gaza offensive. Netanyahu slammed these nations for demanding a Palestinian state, calling it a reward for “genocidal attacks on Israel.” In a joint statement, the Western leaders criticized Israel's denial of humanitarian aid to Palestinians, warning that it could violate international law if continued.That's all for today. This was the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express.

We decided to make homemade sourdough and cauliflower crust pizzas, honoring my craving for pizza but making it in a way that felt good to my body no guilt, no overthinking. It was a beautiful, simple evening where food wasn't the focus, and the best part? I felt completely present with my husband, enjoying the moment rather than obsessing over what I was eating.  This is the freedom that comes with conquering binge eating, Being able to be spontaneous, savour the experience, and live your life without food controlling your every move. I dive into how conquering binge eating gave me the peace to have these types of dates without it being all about the food. It's about balance, living in the moment, and knowing that food will always be there when I need it but it's no longer the main focus of my life. Key Takeaways: How conquering binge eating allows you to have spontaneous, enjoyable moments with the people you love without food being the focus. Why honoring your cravings with healthy, homemade versions of your favorite meals can make you feel better and more in control. The importance of being present in your life, rather than overthinking every food choice or constantly battling urges. How the freedom to enjoy food without guilt or obsession opens up space for more meaningful moments in life. The power of living with balance; enjoying your food and your life, without food being the main event.
