This week I’m talking to Lily Sloane, MFT, a San Francisco-based psychotherapist with a background in treating eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image issues. She is also a composer/independent audio producer and creator of the podcast A Therapist Walks Into a Bar and the community radio show Radical Advice on BFF.fm.  Listen to Lily discuss the role the inner critic plays in disordered and the lure of dieting as a means to fixing life’s more complicated problems.   Show Highlights   What it was like to grow up in a religious environment focused on health food All the compliments that come with weight-loss assume you are doing great Working on the inner critic was helpful in healing disordered eating but wasn’t radical enough How the inner critic can take over mindful or intuitive eating Chronic dieting dovetails with capitalist ideas of always having to be fixing yourself Veiling talk about weight in talk about “health” The difference between correlation and causation How she is open with her clients about her own struggles so they know they are not alone Declining getting weighed at the doctor’s office One can work on their health without focusing on their weight Learning to accept that we go through different seasons of life which will impact how we eat and move How loving your body all the time is unrealistic The impact of being single on how she eats How she has to try to not solve life’s problems by going on a diet Popular wellness models such as “clean eating” are very puritanical French fries fried in beef drippings are delicious!

Photo by Jaime Borschuk Lily Sloane, host of Radical Advice at BFF.fm, chats about her beginning through present views on therapy and her role as a Psychotherapist. She delves into the problem of transparency in the field of therapy, and offers insights into how the negative connotation of the term/meaning of ‘judgment’ can get in the way of having honest, healthy relationships with ourselves and others. She posits that therapists as well as their clients (and folks in general) need to work toward unpacking judgements to find out how and why they shape certain social perceptions, and what that might reveal about ourselves.

Hope you caught it when it aired, and if you didn't, my apologies. In a nutshell re-enactment that won't do it justice but is better than nothin'-- we delved pretty deeply into the process of podcasting in terms of craft, content, creative audio composition, editing, genre, and several things in between. We especially addressed the subject of gender inequality in the audio world, where only 5% of production in audio/media is produced by women.

Dearly Beloved, we are gathered here today to talk about the end. It's the end of the third season of this podcast. A season full of stories about what it's like to be living in these minds and bodies. But it's also the final episode of this show. I want to quickly add, before you have a chance to react, “at least for now!” I want to imply the show could come back to make this ending feel like not a big deal. But let's not do that. Let's just take a moment to let it be. This is the end of the show. Afterall, resurrection fantasies are another defense against loss. As much as I want to just ghost on this ending, I'm not going to. So in this episode, I go back to some of the people who've been on the show before and talk about endings and why acknowledging them is important. And I take this chance to say goodbye to you and to the podcast.

We all know how to criticize losses, we are all receptive to the idea of changing since we lose on something. However, Kim's book talks about the need to criticize the win as well as the looses. There is always a room for improvement for every wins. We all have our weak points and analyzing our wins for improvement can certainly help to improve those weak points.

"The one who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. Those who walk alone are likely to find themselves in places no one has ever been before." - Francis Phillip Wernig It's always interesting on how to find that unique approach.

While it’s nice to help take care of someone else’s problem with your software, it’s also okay to charge for doing so. Sometimes our struggle is not staying motivated or being the best in our field, sometimes the struggle is to have a balance between our “side hustle”, our day job, and our family. Set realistic goals. Jonathan also presents the idea of choosing one bill a month even though it may be small and determining to pay it with money from the business you are starting.

In this Radical Short I talk to Dave Nadelberg, co-founder of the stage show, television series, books, movie and more that make up Mortified. In the last episode of A Therapist Walks Into a Bar, "The Presence of Past," I shared some clips from my performance in the stage show in Oakland. But this thing, where people get on stage and read from their adolescent diaries, share poems, songs, plays they wrote - it actually happens in chapters all over the world. Several months ago, on my sister show Radical Advice, I chatted with Dave about how all this got started.

Radical Shorts are a glimpse into some of the incredible conversations I'm having with all kinds of interesting people on my sister show, Radical Advice, a weekly live show on BFF.FM. In this Radical Short, San Francisco and Berkeley based psychotherapist, Larry Lariosa, and I try to answer a listener-submitted question a lot of us are struggling with right now: “I can't handle the news but I can't stop tuning into it. Even if I take like a week off, as soon as I go back it's like a daily terror festival. More like a runaway train and knowing there is no driver and I can't find the brakes. I don't know how to cope through another minute of this crazy bullshit. What can we be doing to make Trump go away? How does someone like him get what he needs to stop tormenting so many of us?” Learn more about Larry at larrylariosapsychotherapy.com.
