Welcome to the last week of the mini-season on our attention and where we put it (and where we give it away). I am back with Thekla Brumder Ross, clinical Psychologist and addiction specialist and today there are three things Thekla said in particular that are sticking with me. I want to share them verbatim so they can sit with you too. (Might I invite you to take a deep breath between each one and read them slowly?)Social (media) is observational, real life is participatory.Boredom is the space where creative energy flows.Like food, we are going to coexist with technology for the rest of our livesIf these are all true, then there is SO much to be said for paying attention to our attention NOW and not letting anyone (or any platform) steal it from us.Listen in as Thekla gives practical advice on how to break from screens, what to expect and how to combat the cravings with self-compassion and awareness. PLUS - newsletter subscribers get a special invitation to an IN PERSON meet up in Milwaukee on June 9th - so be sure to sign up HERE if you want the link in next week's letter! Support the show

Happy mid-May, friends! As we finish out May, I (Allison) am finishing up my maternity leave! To help me take a break from recording new episodes, we're pulling content from our group coaching calls inside our private coaching group, the Better Belly Blueprint, to share with YOU. Today's topic is from my client Brittany. She asked: "I was wondering - how can having an umbilical hernia and having implanted mesh affect my progress with the course? I have been doing the leaky gut protocol and have been experiencing some pain and bloating that I didn't have prior. My mesh seems to be bothering me in the areas where I think it would be attached. I was wondering if you had any suggestions for relief? I'm also doing the liver protocol and getting ready to start the H. Pylori protocol." This question is a GREAT example of how, even in a program that is designed to be customized to every client, there are still small little questions that can come up that are super unique and tailored to that individual - and how having access to regular coaching can make a BIG difference in your confidence and clarity around getting results! I loved getting to chat through this question with Brittany! If you have had any surgeries or bodily injury to your body that you wonder if it could stop or limit your progress to heal - then this episode is for you! And - if you want to ask questions to me JUST LIKE THIS ONE and get my live feedback, now you can!
