Inner Awareness Creates Outer Change The Magic of Self-Awareness Self-awareness is more than a skill; it's a transformative tool that connects you to life's mysteries and leads to clarity and control. It's the foundation of emancipation, allowing you to identify what's holding you back and create meaningful change. Transformation Through Self-Discovery Self-discovery is the first step to breaking free. By understanding what habits or beliefs no longer serve you, you open yourself to new possibilities for happiness and freedom. The Answers Are Within You True emancipation begins with recognizing that you already have the wisdom to overcome challenges and embrace freedom. Trusting yourself is key to navigating life with peace and purpose. Self-Awareness Fuels Growth Self-awareness helps uncover patterns that keep you stuck and empowers you to change beliefs, behaviours, or attitudes. As Albert Einstein famously said, "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." Interactive Exercise: Reflect on a recurring challenge and ask yourself: What belief or behaviour might be contributing to this pattern? How can I approach it differently? Changing Your Perspective A shift in perspective can transform your life. Self-awareness helps you see mistakes as opportunities, challenges as stepping stones, and limitations as starting points for growth. Empowerment Through Responsibility Self-awareness empowers you to take full responsibility for your life. It's not just about reacting to what happens; it's about intentionally shaping your responses to create positive outcomes. Affirmation: "I take full responsibility for my life. I choose to respond with awareness and create the freedom I desire." Inner Awareness Creates Outer Change Change begins within. You transform your external reality as you become more attuned to your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. Inner exploration is the essence of emancipation—freeing yourself from within to reflect your highest potential. Conclusion Self-awareness is the compass guiding you toward freedom. It empowers you to know yourself, trust your inner wisdom, and take inspired action to create a life of limitless possibilities. Reflect on one belief or pattern you're ready to release this week. Remember, the journey to freedom starts with knowing yourself. "The more you know yourself, the more you can change your life." Join us next Monday for another empowering episode.

Pascale ----------------------- FULL TRANSCRIPT ----------------------- Hello beautiful soul, Welcome to another episode of The Everyday Life Balance Show,. I'm Pascale Gibon, your host. Today, episode 377, we're delving into the transformative power of self-awareness in your journey of personal emancipation. Self-awareness, the cornerstone of emancipation, is the profound understanding of yourself, your thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and beliefs. It's this understanding that empowers you to shatter the patterns that confine you. Let's explore how self-awareness can unleash your potential and liberate you. The Magic of Self-Awareness Self-awareness is not just a practice, it's a source of empowerment. It's a magical tool that connects you to life's mysteries and leads you to mastery, offering the clarity and control to revolutionise your life from within. But how does self-awareness contribute to emancipation? Let's explore six powerful ways it can support your journey to freedom. 1. Self-Awareness Creates Lasting Transformation Transformation begins with self-discovery. When you embark on a journey of self-awareness, you gain clarity on what's holding you back and what needs to change. This inner work not only paves the way for greater happiness and freedom but also fills you with hope for the transformative power you hold within. ✨ Imagine freeing yourself from habits or beliefs that no longer serve you. What could change in your life? Self-awareness is the first step to breaking those chains and opening new possibilities. 2. The Answers Are Within You As we explore self-awareness, we realise something profound: the answers we seek aren't outside of us they are already within. ✨ Emancipation starts with this truth: You are a soul having a human experience, and the wisdom to overcome challenges and embrace freedom lies within you. True emancipation starts when you trust yourself and realise you have everything you need to create change. Let's uncover how trusting your inner wisdom can guide you to greater freedom: · When you know yourself deeply and trust your inner voice, you are better equipped to follow the right path and navigate life's complexities with peace. Knowing you hold the answers is empowering, but what's next? Self-awareness often illuminates the areas where we need to grow. It illuminates the beliefs or behaviours that keep us stuck and helps us break free from old patterns. 3. Self-Awareness Fuels Growth Without self-awareness, there can be no progress. How often do we repeat the same mistakes, stuck in cycles of frustration? Albert Einstein said it best: "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." Adopting the principles of self-awareness helps you recognise these cycles and guides you toward where change is needed. Whether shifting a belief, behaviour, or attitude, growth becomes possible when you truly see yourself. This growth is your gateway to freedom from the habits and thoughts that have held you back. Interactive Exercise: Take a moment to reflect on a recurring challenge in your life. Ask yourself: What belief or behaviour might be contributing to this pattern? How could I approach this differently? 4. Self-Awareness Changes Your Perspective Seeing life's complexities or challenges differently is one of the most freeing experiences; it allows you to break free from a fixed mindset and embrace new possibilities. When we change the way we see a problem, everything changes. For example, instead of viewing mistakes as failures, we see them as opportunities for learning and growth. This mindset shift can transform how we experience challenges and open the door to new possibilities. Let me give you an example: It's like walking up a hill. From the bottom, it feels overwhelming, but as you climb and visualise yourself reaching the top, your perspective shifts and the path becomes clearer. ✨ Emancipation is about shifting from limitation to possibility. When you change the way you look at a situation, the situation itself changes. 5. Self-Awareness Gives You Responsibility and Power With a new perspective comes an incredible realisation: you have the power to take full responsibility for your life. Self-awareness shows you that freedom isn't just about what happens to you, it's about how you choose to respond. When you respond with awareness and intention, you reclaim your power to create positive change. This realisation instils a sense of empowerment and confidence in your ability to shape your life according to your desires. Taking responsibility is one of the most empowering steps toward emancipation. It allows you to reclaim your power and shape your life on your terms. Affirmation: "I take full responsibility for my life. I choose to respond with awareness and create the freedom I desire." 6. Inner Awareness Creates Outer Change When you take responsibility for your life, you realise that change begins within. As you grow in self-awareness, you become more attuned to your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs, allowing you to transform your inner world and your external reality. This powerful connection between inner and outer change is a source of inspiration and motivation for your emancipation journey. ✨Indeed, this is the essence of emancipation: freeing yourself from within to create a life that reflects your highest potential. Think about a recent situation where your internal state influenced your external results. What did you learn from that experience? Recap: The Six Ways Self-Awareness Fuels Emancipation Let's summarise how self-awareness supports your journey to freedom: 1. Transformation: It creates lasting change by helping you identify what's holding you back. 2. Inner Wisdom: You realise the answers you seek are already within you. 3. Growth: It fuels personal progress by uncovering the patterns that keep you stuck. 4. Perspective: It helps you see mistakes and challenges as opportunities for growth. 5. Empowerment: It gives you the responsibility and power to shape your life. 6. Inner-Outer Connection: It allows you to transform your inner world to change your external reality. Remember, small, consistent changes can lead to big transformations. Closing Inspiration Self-awareness is the compass that guides you toward true emancipation. It is not just about knowing and understanding yourself; it's about setting yourself free. By unlocking your inner wisdom, you can break free from the thoughts, habits, and beliefs that no longer serve you. By embracing self-awareness, you step into a life of authenticity, power, and limitless potential. This week, take a step toward your emancipation by reflecting on one belief, habit, or pattern you're ready to release. Remember, the journey to freedom starts with knowing yourself. I'll leave you with this thought: "The more you know yourself, the more you can change your life." Thank you for joining me on this empowering journey. I look forward to connecting with you next Monday. Until then, I'm sending you lots of love and light.
LOVE THY NEIGHBOR WITH BETTER RELATIONSHIPS I have a vision to help us love thy neighbor. We need more relationships in our lives. And our podcasts can help us do exactly that. PERSPECTIVE It is funny how our attitude changes when we realize we know somebody. Our default attitude is confrontational and offended. Someone cuts you off in traffic and we get upset. Did they cut your off? Or maybe they didn't realize their lane ended. It's perspective. Someone takes two plates through the buffet line instead of one, thereby taking more than their fair share. Or maybe they were getting a plate for their handicap spouse who can't stand in a buffet line. Someone left their trash all over the fast food table. Or maybe they got a frantic call that their child was rushed to the hospital. Again, perspective. Remember, we only know what we know. And when we have strong relationships, our default tends to be forgiveness rather than confrontation. IT'S WHO YOU KNOW One winter we got around 12 inches of snow three weeks in a row. It was a time my attitude changed once I realized we had a relationship. It was early January, and I was pulling into the parking lot of the radio station. It took longer than usual to get to work, because of all the snow. When you get that kind of snow, you take it slow and exaggerate your moves. You turn slower and wider. It takes longer to stop. You ease your way through snow. If you've ever lived in a cold climate, you know snow plows come down the street creating small walls of snow in front of every driveway. Nothing is more frustrating than just getting finished shoveling your driveway only to have the plow push a big wall right back into your fine work. When I got to the station that morning, the plows had pushed the snow from the street right into the entrance of our parking lot. It was pretty good sized and took some effort to get through it. As I pulled into the radio station lot just before 8 AM, I had to go around this little BMW that was high centered in the snow. He tried to take his little low profile car through the snow wall the plow had created. Not smart. Anyone who has driven in snow knows you don't drive a sports car in the snow. And, you surely don't try to drive through deep snow. Common sense. I had a few choice words under my breath as I drove around him and found my parking spot. I walked into the building as he continued to spin his tires trying to get out of the snow. Again, anyone who has driven in snow knows you don't spin your tires. You'll never get out. Rock it and ease it out. THE MEETING When I opened my email at my desk, I saw an invite for an all staff meeting at 8:30. At that meeting, the vice president of our company introduced our new general manager. He had just arrived from Tucson, Arizona. And yep, he was the guy stuck in the snow in that BMW. I probably should have helped him get unstuck. He surely didn't know any better. DEFAULT TO CONFRONTATION Why do we default to irritation or confrontation? Why are we offended first? We don't know what we don't know. We make assumptions about people when we really don't know the full story. It's because we lack relationships. Tech makes it so easy to say things behind a screen name that we would never say to someone in person. It is easy to send a scathing email when we would never say those same things face-to-face. The way we act in the digital world creeps into how we act in the real world, because we spend most of our time in the digital space. It becomes second nature. RELATIONSHIPS IN BUSINESS It happens in business as well. We are shopping on Amazon. When getting gas we pay at the pump. We don't talk with travel agents any longer. With the pandemic, menus went to our smart phones with QR codes. You can even buy a car from a vending machine at those big Carvana towers. We have no relationships in business. Rather than buying from someone you know, it has all been reduced to a battle for price. It's a race to the bottom of the price scale. When you can create relationships with potential clients, you are so far ahead of the competition. You can also charge much higher prices. 3% ARE BUYING NOW In his book The Ultimate Sales Machine, Chet Holmes says about 3% of your market are buying now. These people are actively seeking a solution. Therefore, 97% are NOT buying today. If you are only selling, you are missing 97% of your market. When you are creating content on your podcast to help people and build relationships, you are serving all 100% of your market. Now ask yourself, are ads on your show serving your market and building relationships? How do you feel when you're watching a YouTube video and suddenly ads pop in and interrupt you? Why would you do that to your audience? If all you do is sell, you're missing 97% of your market. When you build relationships, you are laying the foundation. When that other 97% is ready to buy, it is much more likely they are coming to you. RELATIONSHIPS FOR A BETTER HUMANITY Not only do I want you to create relationships for better business, I want you to create relationships for a better humanity. Create a community. Support each other. My kids don't have best friends. When I was a kid, I would wake up every summer day and take my bike up to Rick's. Rick and I would get on your bikes and ride everywhere all day long. We'd go to the store. We would head to the park. There were dirt roads we had never been down that we would explore. The two of us would ride our bikes all day and get home just in time for dinner, sometimes eating at each others house. Then we would go out and create some game in the yard. When it got dark, we'd play hide and seek with the kids in the neighborhood. We just needed to be inside before the news came on. Rick and I knew everything about each other, because we spent everyday together. If we didn't live it together, we told each other about it. Today, my kids chat on their phones. They hang out with their friends virtually playing Xbox. Their friends are on the other side of their headset. Sometimes those friends are in Minnesota. Other times in Washington. Occasionally, those friends are the next neighborhood over. Rarely are they hanging out in person. Tech makes it too easy to not be together in person. Why get on my bike and ride up the street when I can Snapchat or FaceTime? THE COMEBACK I want you to bring back the relationship. Not only love thy neighbor, but love thy neighborhood. We need relationships. Society needs relationships. Instead of the anger and confrontation, we need compassion and understanding. Your podcast gives you the platform to share your story and build relationships. You are in the ear of your listeners making connections and growing friendships. People listen to your podcast while they are doing other things alone. They don't want to be alone. You are their companion. That companionship is why a podcast is so much more powerful than video when it comes to building rapport. The know, like and trust comes from the stories you tell and the bits of your life you share with your audience. This week on your podcast, begin sharing a bit of yourself. Start building relationships. The world needs you. WORK TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS When you and I work together, we first get clear on your ideal client. It is easier to build relationships when you know who you are attracting. Next, we find those people and invite them to your show. We craft your content to build relationships with those potential clients through the stories you tell. This is especially true if you are interviewing others. We then connect your content to your offer. This is a matter of building a system that will get your listeners excited about working with you. Next, we get your listener started down your funnel. Your content connects to the first step toward being a client. Finally, we have a sales conversation and convert them to clients. I've done it for years on the radio. We would create great content that would build an audience and relationships. Then, we would leverage that attention to sell advertising. More people listened to my show than any other show in town. And, I wasn't even on the air in morning drive. Instead of selling advertising, I want you to sell your stuff. That's what I help coaches like you do. Rocky Lalvani used my coaching to double the downloads of his podcast Profit Answer Man. Rocky says, "While most people focus on equipment Erik focuses on the listener and how you can serve them." Greg Payne of The Cool Grandpa podcast doubled his downloads in our first month together. He doubled again the next month.

The Thanksgiving spirit, let's take a moment to reflect on God's unconditional love. The Scriptures remind us that 'God is love' (1 John 4:8) and that His love knows no bounds. It is a love that embraces us in our brokenness, forgives our shortcomings, and offers us unending grace. In Romans 8:38-39, we find reassurance of God's unwavering love: 'For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.'" Here are a few key aspects to consider: Humility and Recognizing Blessings: Gratitude cultivates humility by reminding us that everything we have is a gift from God. It shifts our focus from what we lack to what we have been graciously given. Recognizing and acknowledging these blessings opens our hearts to God's abundant provision and fosters a sense of awe and reverence. Deepening Relationship with God: Expressing gratitude strengthens our connection with God. It is an act of worship acknowledging His faithfulness, goodness, and love. Gratitude allows us to approach God with a joyful and thankful heart, deepening our intimacy and trust in Him. As we cultivate gratitude, we become more attuned to God's presence and His work. Shaping Attitude and Perspective: It helps us shift from a mindset of entitlement to one of appreciation. Gratitude enables us to see beyond our immediate circumstances and challenges, reminding us of the bigger picture and God's providential care. It fosters contentment, joy, and resilience, even in the midst of difficulties. Strengthening Relationships with Others: Gratitude extends beyond our relationship with God and positively impacts our interactions with others. When we express gratitude to others, we acknowledge their contributions, kindness, and support. This fosters a culture of appreciation, strengthens bonds, and encourages a spirit of generosity and reciprocity. Cultivating Compassion and Empathy: Gratitude opens our hearts to the needs and experiences of others. It helps us recognize the blessings we have received and inspires us to share them with others. Gratitude fuels acts of compassion and empathy, prompting us to extend love, support, and care to those around us. Gratitude should not be confined to a single day but rather infused into our daily lives. In Colossians 3:17, we are reminded, 'And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.' I do earn a small commission if you purchase any of these items. The Butterfly Effect Thankful and Blessed Tee Trust in the Lord Pray God Bless you and your family on this special day!

In the ebb and flow of life, it's essential to remember that everything will be okay. This phrase encapsulates a mindset of resilience and optimism, offering solace in challenging times.

Resilience: Believing that everything will be okay reflects an innate human capacity for resilience. Perspective: It encourages a perspective that looks beyond the current challenges toward a brighter future. Adaptability: Life is dynamic, and situations can change; the belief in a positive outcome fosters adaptability. Hope: It instills hope, a powerful force that keeps us moving forward during tough times. Mindset Shift: Embracing this belief prompts a shift toward a more positive and constructive mindset. Coping Mechanism: It serves as a coping mechanism, helping individuals navigate uncertainty. Inner Strength: The phrase acknowledges the inner strength to endure and overcome adversity. Encouragement: Reassurance that everything will be okay provides encouragement to face challenges head-on. Faith in the Journey: Ultimately, it's a statement of faith in the journey of life, acknowledging that challenges are integral parts of a larger, evolving narrative.

LEAKED DOCS HIGHLIGHT BIDEN'S AFGHAN FAILUREhttps://gorightnews.com/leaked-docs-highlight-bidens-afghan-failure/https://www.spreaker.com/user/9922149/leaked-docs-highlight-bidens-afghan-failLeaked documents are shedding light on the disorder and lack of urgency inside the Biden White House the night before the Taliban took over Afghanistan's capital city, Kabul. They paint a picture of an administration that was unprepared to handle an evacuation that they should have seen coming.Perspective: It's important to remember as you read this, that Biden's poor response resulted in 13 dead American soldiers, killed by a suicide bomber as they attempted to evacuate Afghans from the city. Not to mention, some Americans are still stuck in the Taliban-controlled city.The new documents are summary notes of a meeting of Biden's own National Security Council on August 14, 2021, at 3:30 pm - Taliban forces were literally entering Kabul while this meeting went down. Keep that in mind as you read these leaked notes:"State will work to identify as many countries as possible to serve as transit points. Transit points need to be able to accommodate U.S. citizens, Afghan nationals, third country nationals, and other evacuees. (Action: State, immediately)""Embassy Kabul will notify LES [locally employed staff] to begin to register their interest in relocation to the United States and begin to prepare immediately for departure... (Action: Embassy Kabul, immediately)"...why the hell was this still undecided at this point?Biden advisors speak out: Along with these leaks, several high-ranking advisors to the administration have spoken out, on the record to highlight the disorder:Matt Zeller, a former CIA officer said: "I kept being told by people in the [White House] the thing they were most concerned about was the optics of a chaotic evacuation. They treated us like we were Chicken Little. They didn't believe the sky was falling... We offered to work with them to help evacuate our partners... They didn't get back to us until Aug 15, the day Kabul fell."Mark Jacobson, a deputy NATO representative in Afghanistan during the Obama administration said: "That so much planning, prioritizing and addressing of key questions had not been completed, even as Kabul was about to fall, underscores the absence of adequate interagency planning."A recent poll from Rasmussen asked if voters thought Biden should be impeached for his failure in Afghanistan and immigration policies:50% overall said yes34% of Democrats said yesIf you would like to read the full leaked NSC memo, you can find it here.[Source: Axios, Waking Up Right Newsletter]

Inspired by this post from Rachel Mae, Kasey and Ashleigh discuss how to process, address and move on from receiving feedback that is potentially sexist.SHOW NOTES#FiercelyFemaleFriday-After seeing this LinkedIn post from Rachel Mae, Kasey and Ashleigh were prompted to look at the LinkedIn sales community. There are men that have massive followings that are wearing t shirts in their videos and don't receive the same feedback to dress up. They also made their own bare-faced videos, watch Kasey's here and Ashleigh's here.“Dumb Blonde”-Ashleigh's coach pulled her aside after a high school speech and debate competition and said that she wouldn't receive one of her score cards because the judge had called her a “dumb blonde” and therefore everything else he had to say was irrelevant. Someone can and will get hung up on your appearance and miss the message.Dressing up for Work-As you get older, it's not uncommon to feel more confident with less makeup on because you're more confident in the quality of your work and expertise, so you don't feel the need to makeup for that in appearance. Find the balance between what is appropriate for you and makes you feel the best within the context of what's appropriate for your work environment.What is Sexist Feedback-A telltale sign that the feedback you're receiving is sexist is if it's superficial or about the way you present rather than your work or the efficacy of what you're doing. If it's still unclear, ask yourself whether this person would say something similar to someone that doesn't look like you.Moving Past It-Have a network of people that you can rely on and reach out to for a “sanity check”. Try to present the situation as objectively as possible so that you can get as unbiased an opinion as possible.-You need to be able to take a hard look at the situation and make the decision as to whether the criticism was justified or not. It's possible that you did do something somewhat unprofessional and the response was warranted.Reporting-Decipher whether this sort of criticism speaks to solely a specific moment or more to the overall work environment by looking at the severity, frequency, and ubiquity. If this is indicative of the culture of the entire company, reporting might not get you very far because the truth is that HR exists to protect the company.-When it comes to legal council and support know that once a lawyer takes your money, everything you say is protected by client privilege and that timely documentation trumps all. One of the best things you can do is shoot a text to a friend right after the incident and tell them verbatim what was said so that you have a witness and timestamp.Perspective-It's not up to white men to tell you what is sexist or racist, but know that you need to also be willing to check your own ego of what is or isn't discriminatory. Recognize that other people see things through a different lens and theirs might be more accurate than yours.Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/othersideofsales/me
This week’s episode is brought to you by our free masterclass we are hosting, TODAY Tuesday November 12th at 5:30 pm pacific and Thursday November 14th at 5:30 pm pacific - its called: “The 3 Ingredients you need to become an intuitive eater and find wellness without the obsession (even if you still want to lose weight)” you can grab your free spot at bit.ly/undietmasterclass for which ever time is most convenient. We will be sharing: The 3 ingredients who must combine in order to find the balance in this work. We will be going over what they are and how to begin implementing them into your life. At the end of the masterclass we will also be sharing more details about The UnDiet Academy (PLUS some bonuses for those who come on live). Now back to today’s episode: You’ve probably heard many people in the diet industry start talking about “the healthy holidays” and “how not to splurge during the holidays” and “Holiday workout challenge” and all the things that make you fear the holidays and all the food etc. So we are your friendly UnDiet coaches who are here to ease your mind and share with you why there is no need to panic! YES you can be an Intuitive Eater/ UnDieter through the Holidays without feeling guilty and shamed for not jumping on the Healthy Holiday Diet Challenge Bandwagon. There is no need for that and if anything it will be more harmful to you than helpful - so spare yourself the fear mongering diet culture and jump on board with us. Where you can live your life, enjoy the holidays, and feel really good about it!!! Here’s 5 helpful suggestions we’d like to share with you: 1. The more you allow - the less bingeing (or not at all!) The second you go into a holiday party already trying to control what you should eat and what to eat and what not to eat you are setting yourself for an all out free for all / maybe even binge. The more you can breathe and keep telling yourself you can literally eat WHATEVER you want at whatever party you go to - the intuition sticks by your side. Since you know you can have it all, it doesn’t seem so scarce. There is an abundant mindset and you know that if you want to eat more later or tomorrow you can have it, so you don’t need to eat all that pie you never get to eat all year today because you can take some leftovers home. AND if you are saying, but seriously I never get this pie/ dessert any time of the year i can’t control myself around it - get the dang recipe and make it available to you during the year so it doesn’t seem so special. Most things you can recreate and yeah maybe it’s a nostalgic thing that you mom makes or grandma makes etc. But would it be sooooo bad if ya just ate more of what you wanted because it just tastes so good and that’s the choice you make? It’s okay to choose to eat more than feels good because it tastes good. That’s a part of normal eating! SO ALLOW! 2. You are worth it Guide Use this guideline to help tune in to what you ACTUALLY want and what ACTUALLY tastes good. At holiday parties there could be like 20 things to put on your plate and your eyes may be thinking I WANT TO TRY IT ALL! And maybe you do and that’s great. Whatever looks good to you and what will feel good - put some on your plate. Remember you can ALWAYS go back for more. When you start to eat the things - notice what tastes amazing to you and what doesn’t taste as amazing. You don’t have to finish something on your plate that actually doesn’t taste as great as you thought - stick to the foods that seem really worth it to you. The ones that melt in your mouth, that makes you say WOW. This will help you stick to the foods that you really enjoy and pass on the food that you can go without. You don’t have to eat every single thing just because it’s there. Remember, you are worth it to eat the best of the best if it’s available :) Do the same with the dessert table! AND this is not a rule - want to eat all the things regardless of how good it is, that's up to you!3. Perspective: It’s not as much as you thinkIt’s about 35 days from Nov-Jan with Holidays - there are 5 scheduled holidays - Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, NYE and New Years Day- so let’s just add on another 5 Holiday parties - to make it 10 “out of the norm” scheduled parties that have food and drinks. - If 10 out of the 35 days you are tuning in, listening to your body, allowing all food, checking in on what feels good, maybe you even feel full or say you’ve overeaten - is it really that bad to have 10 days of this that doesn’t feel crazy or obsessive it just feels like you get to enjoy extra delicious food because of the special occasions. How lovely to have these days to enjoy yourself and trust your body that it will ebb and flow and soon enough the holidays will end and maybe there won’t be as many parties but you still do the same thing that you were doing the entire time - listening and allowing , doing what feels good and yes there will be times when you feel full because of that decadent dessert or extra helping of dinner you enjoyed so much…we say that feels sustainable and calm and peaceful - it doesn’t need to be restrictive and full of bingeing for 35 days because “it’s the holiday season” - You just take it one day at a time and you trust yourself and your body knowing that it’ll do it’s thing. 4. Wear Comfy clothesFor the holiday season (and always) but for the sake of talking about the Holiday season we know you may be putting outfits together or buying new ones for these occasions- One of the best ways to not trigger yourself at a party with all the food and the people is to wear something you feel good in and that you like. It can be stylish, it can even be sexy if that’s what you like - we aren’t saying to wear sweatpants :) Just be conscious of how your clothes are fitting and how you feel in them. If you show up to a party already feeling like your pants are too tight or that dress is uncomfortable or the way your arms feel in that shirt- that’s a big set up for catastrophic thinking around your body and could spiral you- so wear something that you enjoy, feels good, you like the look of, makes you feel confident - do your hair / makeup if that’s your jam and if not, no need. Just do YOU! 5. Setting Boundaries This may not be directly about food - but this is an important part of the holidays - setting those boundaries. We get that not everyone has “the most wonderful time of the year” during the holidays. We know it can be stressful to see certain family members that you don’t normally see or even just having everyone together can be a triggering event. Of course there’s the good parts too - and to help you get through the holidays without feeling so completely depleted setting boundaries will be super helpful. Especially when you hear the constant diet talk or your mom, grandma, or aunt (or whoever) comments on your weight and/or everyone else’s weight. Things you can do….. +Leave the room +Actively say out loud that this is not a topic you’ll be discussing +Go run an errand by yourself to get away for some alone time just to breathe +Leave the party early if that’s what will honor your the most +Remember that you don’t need to explain yourself to anyone about what you look like or what you choose to eat- it does not even have to be part of the discussion. +Have a “life line” - a friend/ someone you trust that you can call to feel supported by. RECAP: ALLOW - to eliminate bingeing Utilize the You are Worth it Guide Remember, there aren’t as many holidays as you think! It will end! Wear comfy clothes Set Boundaries Remember to grab your worksheet at www.thebodylovesociety.com/80 so you can feel confident going into the Holidays as an UnDieter!

Hey everybody, we are BACK and ready to take off on Season 4!!! Wahoo! Narcissism – This time we focus on how it’s created and what is going on behind the narcissists defenses. Later we will address Malignant Narcissism, which is in a class all to itself! It deserves an entire episode, but for today we will look at what causes it, healthy and pathological degrees of it and what is really going on under the hood of the person afflicted with narcissism. We really heard the requests wanting to hear more about some of the diagnostic pieces of attachment, trauma and the relational sciences. Specifically, narcissism and borderline personality disorder are of great interest to many of you. We put our heads together about how to best do this in a way that honors those who are struggling with these issues and those in relationship with them. To do this, we are going to weave conversations about narcissism and borderline personality disorder throughout the season. It may be snippets in a podcast about something else, or entire episodes focused on these concerns. Today, we’re going to get started on narcissism. Greek version of the myth: Narcissus, was the son of River God Cephisus and nymph Lyriope. He was known for his beauty and he was loved by God Apollo due to his extraordinary physique. Narcissus was once walking by a lake or river and decided to drink some water; he saw his reflection in the water and was surprised by the beauty he saw; he became entranced by the reflection of himself. He could not obtain the object of his desire though, and he died at the banks of the river or lake from his sorrow. According to the myth Narcissus is still admiring himself in the Underworld, looking at the waters of the Styx. Healthy Narcissism (!?)We all have some element of Narcissism and if we don’t, we get run over in life. We don’t want to be a doormat but we also don’t want to be on a High Horse above it all. We all have narcissism, it’s healthy entitlement. Functional narcissism is about your sense of Self, healthy entitlement and being inside yourself, and really rolling with who you are as a person. It’s being confident instead of being overly in-tune to others opinion of you. Problematic NarcissismIf it’s a character trait rather than a moment in time, it’s all about defense. This defense protects the smallness and inadequacy and shame at it’s core, and to compensate, grandiosity is born. That or the opposite, which we will discuss, but if I attack the hell out of myself then I protect myself from you having less than positive feelings about me because I beat you to it. Basically, it’s about deriving self-esteem from outside affirmation in order to maintain internal validity. Narcissism is an injury to the Self, where we’ve had to give ourselves up in service of the other or blow ouselves up to feel “enough”. It is associated with the avoidant/dissmissing attachment category, or the blue side of the attachment spectrum. Narcissistic Tendencies Versus a Disorder (from a Psychologist’s Perspective)It’s only in the much higher degree and more rigid degree of the trait that we would call it disordered or problematic. This is NOT a judgment. We mean it’s problematic for the person who suffers from it and that it infiltrates most every relationship to a point that it significantly impairs daily functioning or social relationships. Not that a person with true Narcissistic personality disorder would notice this distress, because everyone around them are “stupid” or “the best.” You can imagine stupid one’s are differentiated from them and the best one’s reflect their version of themselves. Narcissistic Injury:Example: The blue side – (avoidance/dismissive attachment) is a defense, whether we live there or whether we travel there. When we feel very deeply vulnerable but can’t...

He binge-watched shows and movies on Netflix.Running out of his usual genres led him to watch documentaries and series that he would not have considered otherwise.
