Let me say it loud for the people in the back. Services are the fastest path to cash, and they always will be. I will die on that hill.In this episode, I sit down with Samantha Fine, a longtime student and Strategist Society member who has been through every phase of business. She started during the pandemic, shut it down for a dream job at Coca-Cola, got discriminated against for being a mom, had her second baby, and relaunched with one goal: pick her son up from kindergarten every single day.She spent most of 2024 chasing the passive income dream and made $500. Then she went all in on services and finished 2025 at nearly $80,000, all while working a full-time job for eight months of the year. This is the real math on services versus digital products, and the framework that scales it.In this episode, you'll learn:Why digital products are never as passive as you were sold, and the two things you need before you build oneThe exact moment services beat a course (and the $500 vs $80K math behind it)The Strategist Trifecta: how to scale past your retainer ceiling without adding hoursHow Samantha signed a new client almost every month at $3K retainers and a $5K ads intensiveWhy being willing to ask questions and be vulnerable is the real growth hackThe discovery call teardown that taught the whole room where deals get lostWhy your business is not your hobby, and the "choose your hard" mindset that changes everythingMentioned in this episode:Strategist Society (apply if you are at $3K+/mo): https://thestrategistsociety.comConversions For Clients (start your ad management business): https://conversionsforclients.comReady to scale past $10K months?If you are already doing $3,000 or more with your service business and you want to be in the room with women like Samantha, head to thestrategistsociety.com and apply for a call. We will look at exactly where you are and what your next step is. No million-dollar-agency pressure, just real strategy that fits your real life.Loved this episode?Screenshot it, share it to your stories, and tag @brandimowles so I can cheer you on.

On the pod today, we're discussing a question from a sweet listener who wrote in and asked: "I know in order to find peace with food and fully embrace recovery, I must increase my food intake and my portion sizes. However, I'm truly anxious and scared every time I think about this. How do I stick with it and make it a habit that builds momentum?" Sis, I adore this question — because I have been right there. If you're terrified to even think about increasing your portions, or you feel like you're already at capacity, I want you to know: you are right where you need to be listening to today's episode. It's okay to be afraid — you're about to do something brave We've been programmed by a culture where less is more. Dressing on the side. Don't drink your calories. You don't need those carbs. Everything is elimination, elimination, elimination. So of course it feels scary to go the other direction. When my dietitian first handed me my meal plan, I looked at it and thought, there is no way in H-E-double-hockey-sticks. Every fear flooded in. But here's the truth: it's okay to be afraid, because you're about to do something that is going to bring you future joy. This takes courage. And your future self is looking back at the you sitting here right now saying, "Yes, girl. You're going to rock this recovery thing." Step 1: Understand your resistance When you think about adding more to your day, what actually comes up? Fear of weight gain? Anxiety that you'll lose control and never stop? A flood of old rules — when would I fit that in, what would I choose, I can't have this if I have that? That's just your brain spinning. See yourself in that place without judgment — because the resistance shows up precisely when you're about to embark on something amazing. It's okay to be scared and still do the dang thing. Fear is what keeps the cycle going: heaviness → restriction → overwhelm → shame → right back where you started. The way out is building new dominant pathways in your mind — and that starts with what you practice on repeat. Step 2: Know the truth about nourishment Don't just tolerate the idea that eating more is "better" — coach yourself on why. Adequate nutrition supports healing for your organs, your muscles, your skin, your hair. It fuels the basics — breathing, circulation, digestion. It regulates hormones that directly impact your mood and health. It armors up your immune system and protects your bones for the long haul. This isn't about shame for lost time, sis. It's about the reframe: "This is what I'm doing for my future self, because my body deserves this level of healing." And swap the mindset: instead of more food = weight gain, try "I'm finally supporting my body's natural regulation. My body is learning to trust me, and I'm learning to trust it." Food is medicine. It's a non-negotiable — stop making it optional. Step 3: Practical ways to gently increase Work with a dietitian. I'll say it plainly: I'm a certified health coach, not a dietitian — and the single best move for portions and meal planning is a professional who specializes in this. They can help with visual aids, adequate-meal guidance, and the "plate distortion" that makes it hard to even know what a normal portion looks like. If you don't have one yet, finding one is worth it. Go gradual and small. Don't overhaul every meal at once. Pick one small, consistent addition and honor it — then build week after week. Small steps compound. Make it a game. Can I add a little more of this? A little something extra there? Each tiny win proves to your mind that you're capable — and that empowered feeling builds real momentum. Add variety. If your meals or meal times are rigid, gently challenge it. Try a different lunch. Add something new in a gap in your day. What's one thing you could commit to this week? Create a mindful eating environment. Eat where you feel safe, supported, and connected — not rushed, watched, or on the go. Set healthy boundaries where you need them. Get accountability. Tell a loved one your plan for tonight and ask them to hold you to it. Or let someone you trust support you at mealtimes. This is also exactly what a coach is for. A few lines from the episode "It's okay to be afraid, because you're about to do something that is going to bring you future joy." "Fear will keep you stuck in the cycle. Courage — small, gradual courage — breaks it." "My body is learning to trust me, and I'm learning to trust it." "Food is medicine. Stop making it optional." "It's okay to not be feeling it — and it's still okay to do it." Your one thing this week Decide on your increase. Ask yourself: "What is the one thing I'm going to choose that will prove to myself that I'm capable?" Then go do it — gradually, small, and committed. Ask "how can I care for my body today?" and follow through. Connect with Lindsey:

Today's episode is about one word, sis. One tiny, three-letter word that is quietly deciding the direction of your entire recovery — and honestly, your entire life. "I want freedom, BUT I'm terrified." "I want to recover, BUT I've tried everything." "I want peace with food, BUT I don't trust myself." Sound familiar? That little word BUT is doing more damage than you realize — and today I'm handing you the one-word swap that changes everything. Grab your Tarjay journal, girl. This one's a game changer. BUT is a fixed mind Here's what the word BUT actually does: it erases everything that came before it. "I want freedom, BUT I'm scared." Do you hear it? The want just got deleted. The fear got the final word. BUT is a full stop dressed up as a sentence — it takes your desire and slams the door on it. BUT is the fixed mind talking. It says these two things can't exist together: if I'm scared, I can't move. If I've struggled before, I can't succeed now. If it's hard, it must not be for me. I lived in BUT for years. I want to get better, BUT this is just who I am. Every BUT was a brick in the wall between me and my freedom. AND is a growth mind Now watch what happens with one swap: "I want freedom, AND I'm scared." Both things get to be true. The fear doesn't erase the want. The want doesn't require the fear to disappear first. They walk together. AND is the growth mind: I can be terrified AND take the next step. I can have doubts AND keep going. I can have a history of struggle AND a future of freedom. This is how courageous women actually move — not by waiting for the fear to leave, but by letting the fear ride in the backseat while the want drives. Not one woman who ever got free stopped being scared first. They just stopped letting BUT have the last word. You can't choose both — choose one Coach Lindsey coming in hot, because I love you too much not to: you cannot live in BUT and AND at the same time. One kills the want; one carries it. So the next level of your life — the recovered you, the free you, the fully-present-at-the-dinner-table you — is asking you one question: what does this next level require from me? It starts here: choose your word. BUT or AND. Fixed or growth. The wall or the door. You're already choosing one, a hundred times a day, in the tiny sentences inside your head. Today, choose it on purpose. The longest walk you'll ever take My business mentor and coach James Wedmore says something that has never left me: "The greatest distance we will ever walk is between our head and our heart." And whew — is that the truth in recovery. Because your head already knows. You've listened to the podcasts, read the books — you could teach a class on what recovery requires. Knowledge isn't your problem, sis. The walk is from knowing it up here… to believing it in here. From "recovery is possible" as information to "recovery is possible FOR ME" as truth. And what carries you on that walk isn't more information — it's AND. Every time you say "I'm scared AND I'm doing it anyway," you take one more step from your head toward your heart. Every meal chosen in fear, every rest taken in doubt, every hand raised for help before you feel ready — those are the footsteps. That's the walk. Try it on Take your sentence — you know the one — and swap the word: "I want to be free, BUT I've had this for decades" → "I want to be free, AND I've had this for decades — so I know exactly how much this freedom is worth." "I want to trust myself, BUT I've broken promises to myself before" → "I want to trust myself, AND I'm learning to keep promises to myself, one at a time." Feel the difference? BUT ends the story. AND continues it. And sis — your story is not finished. A few lines from the episode "BUT is a full stop dressed up as a sentence." "The fear doesn't erase the want. They walk together." "Not one woman who ever got free stopped being scared first. She just stopped letting BUT have the last word." "The greatest distance we will ever walk is between our head and our heart." — James Wedmore "BUT is the wall. AND is the door." "I want this, AND I'm scared, AND I'm going anyway." Your homework this week Catch your BUTs. Every time you hear one in your head — I want this, BUT… — pause and swap it out loud: I want this, AND. Then take your biggest BUT sentence, write it in your journal, and rewrite it with AND. Watch what it opens. 'I want support, BUT…' — girl, swap it "I want support, AND I'm scared, AND I'm reaching out anyway." That's the move. And that's exactly what we do together! Connect with Lindsey:

If there's anyone more entertaining than Adam Chester, please tell me so I can book them now! What a fabulous, fun, afternoon ride! Other than a tech glitch (lost internet for 5 min - which caused this to have a Part 1 and Part 2), this was as close to perfection as a sit-down could be. We got current events; he's on vocal rest due to a minor health issue, so Adam performed an instrumental with full virtuoso gusto and talked for a good hour and a quarter, also with total fervor. Shhh, don't tell his ENT. In Part 1, we got Adam's backstory, which manifested into his life's headlines. The author of S'Mother held up his mother (hysterical, dark sight gag), who started him on the keys at 3 and got him an upright at 5. Adam walked us into his son Truman's room to share his first instrument, which he's moved cross-country and from state to state. Nothing like a good show and tell. We got delicious juicy bits about Adam's year or so with Barry White, a decision Adam still questions, his piano teacher, Jeff, his manager, Paul, and his life-changing friend and mentor, Davey Johnstone, who opened the door to Sir Elton, a gig still in action, more than 20 years later, post Elton's retirement, filled with pinch moments and living the dream realities. Adam's stories about it all are precious, humble, moving, and hysterical. We get the beginning of his Joni Mitchell connection in Part 1, picked up and furthered to greater heights in Part 2, along with a fabulous Miley Cyrus story, and my s'mother nag for Adam to start doing his thing at his regular Georgian Hotel gig in Santa Monica on Wednesdays, 6-9 pm, where historically he plays, sans vocals and his ridiculously entertaining banter. Vocal rest be damned! You can't keep the unique genius that is Adam down. One shouldn't! I could not have had more fun, or loved this (both Parts) more! How dare my internet go down before we were through! Sorry, Adam, sorry, ya'll!

Hey girl — if you're in the thick of a hard season right now, this one is for you. If you're exhausted from fighting the same thoughts every single day… if you're so tired of trying to do this whole recovery thing by yourself… if you're scared to death of letting go of control but you know you desperately want to stop carrying this burden alone — I created today's episode just for you, sis. We're doing something a little different: seashells, ocean currents, and the imagery of my happy place. But don't let the beach vibes fool you — this is one of the most important truths I've ever shared on this show. Because you are closer to shore than you think. Picture this with me: You're standing at the ocean. Way off in the distance is a beautiful, peaceful shoreline — that's your recovery. Your freedom. Your life without the constant mental chatter. But between you and that shore is a massive current pushing against you. Every stroke toward healing, the eating disorder voice pushes back. That current is made of everything that feels impossible right now: the fear of weight gain, the voice saying you can't have that yet, the terror of losing the thing that's made you feel safe even while it's been destroying you, and the sheer exhaustion of fighting every single day. And somewhere in the middle of it, you get tired. You start thinking, maybe I should just stop swimming. Here's what I need you to know: every single woman who has found freedom from an eating disorder has had to swim against this same current. And you are stronger than the current trying to take you under. __________________ My son spent our beach trip hunting for the "perfect" shells to bring me — the smooth ones, the whole ones, no holes, no rough edges. And it hit me: we were looking at it all wrong. The pressure, the tumbling, the tossing — that's exactly what creates a shell's strength and its beauty. Every line and curve comes from surviving another storm. And here's the part that gives me chills: after all the chaos, the shells wash up complete. Children collect them. People treasure them. They become symbols of the ocean's power to create beauty from something that got tossed around and slammed to the ground. The broken ones tell a story. And nobody actually wants the "perfect" ones anyway — those are the little baby shells that have never been in the deep waters. Sis, this is your story. Every hard day, every moment you choose your meal over your fear, every time you resist the scale — you're forming another layer of strength. You're not broken because you're in the storm. You're in the process of becoming a treasure. _______________ I know what you're thinking: "I'm terrified of letting go. What if I lose control?" Truth bomb, sis: you're not actually in control right now anyway. Your eating disorder is controlling when you eat, what you eat, how much you exercise, what you wear, where you go, your thoughts from the moment you wake until you sleep. That's not control — that's a false sense of safety that's keeping you fighting the current. Or worse, drowning in it. And stepping into faith? I'm not talking about a giant leap where you suddenly trust everything perfectly. I'm talking about one stroke toward shore instead of treading water in the same spot: Eating your snack when the voice says you don't need it Choosing rest when your body is exhausted Reaching out for support instead of figuring it out alone Trusting that putting yourself first isn't selfish — it's necessary Even the strongest swimmers need a lifeguard I know you. You're the woman who thinks she has to do everything herself — believe me, I am her. You've been managing your recovery, your food, your kids, your husband, your whole life all by yourself, and beating yourself up when you get tired. But here's the hardest truth: the hardest thing isn't doing it perfectly. The hardest thing is admitting you can't do it alone. Your eating disorder has been stealing the oxygen from your lungs. Putting yourself first means finally putting on the oxygen tank. And when you do — when you stop treading alone — something beautiful happens: you become the calm in somebody else's storm. Every woman who finds freedom becomes a lighthouse for the women still fighting the current. Your daughter watches how you talk about your body. Your friends see how you handle stress. Your healing creates a ripple effect far beyond you. A few lines from the episode "You are stronger than the current that is trying to take you under." "The broken shells aren't broken at all — they tell a story." "That's not control — that's a false sense of safety." "Faith looks like one stroke toward shore instead of treading water in the same spot." "Even the strongest swimmers need a lifeguard." "Recovery isn't selfish. It's wise." "Every woman who finds freedom becomes a lighthouse for the women still fighting the current." "You are not too far out in the current. You are not the exception to healing." Stop swimming in circles. Stop treading water. Reach your hand up for the lifeguard — not tomorrow, not next week, not when you feel ready. Now. Because when you get support, the current doesn't disappear — but you're not fighting it alone. The waves don't stop coming — but you learn to ride them like a surfer instead of being crushed by them. Ready to stop swimming alone? If this message inspired you, don't wait until you're "ready." Head to www.herbestself.co and fill out a client application — I would be honored to be the one swimming next to you, helping you navigate the waves I've already been through.

Sis, I'm coming at you with some serious tough love today, because I'm about to call you out on the story you've been telling yourself about your journey. If you've been walking around asking "Why me? Why do I have to deal with this? Why do I even bother trying to recover?" — this episode is your wake-up call. Because I'm about to flip that victim script and hand you the question that changes everything. I just got off a coaching call with a client who's stepping into a whole new identity away from the eating disorder voice, and it lit a fire in me. So buckle up, grab your  journal, and get ready to shift from poor me thinking to powerful me living in the next 15 minutes. The story: You wake up and the first thought in your head is about food, your body, your weight. You spend your days calculating, restricting, obsessing — then beating yourself up for all of it. And somewhere in that mental chaos, the questions start: Why me? Why can't I just eat normally like everyone else? What if I'm the exception? What if I'm just too far gone? Here's the truth I need you to hear loud and clear: you are writing yourself as the victim in your own life story — and then getting mad that you're playing the victim role. You're taking clips from your journey — the hard days, the setbacks, the fears — and making them mean you're doomed. But your thinking is driving your entire life. So let me ask you, girl… how's that working out for you? The facts: 60–70% of people with eating disorders make a full recovery (National Eating Disorder Association) With proper treatment, recovery rates can reach as high as 80% (Journal of Clinical Medicine) People who believe in their ability to recover are significantly more likely to achieve full recovery — and women who reframe their eating disorder as something they're overcoming rather than something they have show better outcomes The majority of women struggling with exactly what you're struggling with right now? They get better. They don't just manage symptoms — they become free. So here's my question: if most women recover… why not you? What "why me?" is really doing for you Here's the uncomfortable truth: that question isn't really about seeking understanding. It's about staying comfortable in an identity that keeps you feeling safe. When you ask "why me?" you get to stay stuck without taking responsibility. You get to avoid the scary. You get to keep the mask on that the eating disorder thrives off of. I'm not judging you — I asked every one of those questions myself. "My eating disorder is different. I've had it longer. It's more severe. I've tried everything." Sis, I said all of it. And every single woman I've ever worked with thought she was the exception too. You know what happened when they stopped playing the victim in their own story? They became the hero. As 1 Corinthians 10:13 says: "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind." Your struggle isn't unique. Your pain isn't special. And your recovery isn't just possible — it's probable. Same facts, different story The facts of your life don't change. But the story you tell about them? That's 100% your choice. "I have an eating disorder" → could mean I'm ready to heal "Recovery is hard" → could mean I'm doing something brave "I'm scared of gaining weight" → could mean I'm about to break through my biggest fear Right now, your default identity is "the woman with the eating disorder." Every morning your brain boots up like a computer running that operating system — so of course the disordered thoughts come first. That's your default setting. But what if you changed the default to recovery warrior? A recovery warrior doesn't ask "why me?" She asks "why not me?" She doesn't say "I can't do this." She says "I'm doing this." She doesn't make herself the victim of her story. She makes herself the hero. As Romans 8:37 reminds you: you are more than a conqueror. Decide in advance Here's the real truth: when I went through my recovery, I wasn't ready. I didn't raise my hand one day feeling prepared. I had to decide I wasn't going to do this to myself anymore. So decide in advance that you're going to recover. Not I hope — but I get to. Not maybe — but I will. Your homework: Write this down today — "I am a woman who is recovering, and recovery is my new identity in this season." And every morning when your brain boots into default mode, interrupt the pattern: "That's not who I am anymore. I'm a warrior now — and recovery warriors don't think like that." When you change your thoughts, you change your identity. When you change your identity, you change your story — and the entire direction of your life. Maybe even a generational change in your family. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "You're not broken. You're not too far gone. You're not the exception to the statistics." "The women who recover aren't special, stronger, or smarter than you. They just decided." "Stop making yourself the exception and start making yourself the example." "Your eating disorder has had you for years — it doesn't get to have your future." "You are one decision away from changing your entire life trajectory." "Keep choosing recovery one decision at a time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today, the practical half: how to actually loosen sugar's hold. You'll hear where sugar is hiding in foods you'd never think to check. Why cravings often trace back to something other than a lack of discipline — our sleep, our stress, even our gut. What "eating by the plate" looks like in real meals, so we're not counting anything. The two-week fructose reset — what it is and how to make the most of it. How to test a single food and read what it's actually doing to our energy, so we decide what's worth it. And some more useful metrics than what we get from the bathroom scale. This BEST OF episode will live up to that label -- join us!   LET'S TALK THE WALK! Join here for support, motivation and fun!

I don't want you to just be visible. I want you to be visible AND paid.Because a woman who shows up every day, creates content, builds an audience — and makes no money from it — is just invested in a very time consuming hobby.I'm not doing this to be popular. I'm doing this to make money. And I'm going to assume you're here for the same reason — whether you're trying to make money right now or you're figuring out how you're going to make money in the future.Most women who are posting will never make the money they're capable of making. Not because they're not talented. Not because they don't work hard. Because there's a gap between visibility and income that nobody ever shows you how to bridge.This episode is about that gap. The visibility trap. And the 3 bridges that actually get you out of it.IN THIS EPISODE— Why visibility and income are not the same thing — and the data that proves it (over 200 million creators, more than half earning under $15,000 a year)— The Thailand story: sold out events, posting three times a day, opportunities everywhere — and making absolutely no money— The relatability trap: why poetic, emotional, relatable content builds connection but doesn't build income— "Access creates participation. Structure creates income." — the Forbes line that explains everything— The 3 bridges between visibility and income: conversion content, a clear offer, and trust scaled from 1:1 to 1:many— Why the gap between the $15,000 creator and the $133,000 creator isn't talent — it's operating like a business— The model: personal brand → conversion content → one digital product. In that order. That's it.Visibility is not the goal. Income is the goal. Visibility is just the door — make sure you have something on the other side of it.

Welcome to Show Me The Money Club live show with Sergio and Chris Tuesdays 6pm est/3pm pst.

No outline today, sis. No steps, no framework. Just me, fresh off our annual family beach vacation in the Outer Banks, riffing on what I noticed while I was there — and what it means for you. Because here's the thing: the beach used to be a trigger for me. Months of restriction and doubled-down exercise before "bikini season." Fake permission at vacation dinners that never turned into real permission. Coming home to restrict and repeat the cycle all over again. This year? I sat on the beach fully present. I played in the sand. I watched my son on his boogie board. I ate the ice cream — the salted caramel gelato with all the drizzle — without thinking twice. I had pizza with my husband. I didn't work out once. And I didn't have a single thought about my worth. If you're in Struggleville right now believing this is just who you are and how it's always going to be — this episode is your proof that it's not. Freedom is when something that used to scare you doesn't scare you anymore. And if I can get here, so can you. What this episode holds The honest before. What beach trips used to look like for me: the pre-vacation restriction, the "permission" that never came, the post-vacation punishment cycle. If you're living that loop right now, you're not alone — and it's not forever. The striking after. What this year felt like: present, spontaneous (well — more spontaneous, I'm still a structured girl), fully there with my boys. No comparing bodies. No planning how to "burn it off." No anxiety-driven chaos before the trip. Just… vacation. How I actually got here. Not overnight. Not with a magic ticket that somebody else has and you don't. With tiny steps of permission, intention, and consistent small actions over time that led to big results. It started way before the beach — and your version starts wherever you are today. The reflection from the waves. Sitting on the deck listening to the ocean, I thought about how the God of the universe made every single wave different — and wondered why I'd ever spent years doubting whether He made me well. Did I ever really know better than He did? The question I wish someone had asked me. How much longer do you plan to hang out here? Time passes either way. Recovering is the hardest thing I've ever done — but staying sick was harder. A few lines from the episode "Freedom is when something that used to scare you doesn't scare you anymore." "I'm just a couple steps ahead of you, girl. I'm not better than you. If I can get here, so can you." "You cannot measure your progress if you haven't truly gone all in on yourself." "There is nothing you will ever lose if you are constantly gaining experience." "Your willingness to fail in life is proportionate to your potential to gain and grow." "Don't believe the lie that this is how it's always going to be. If you believe that lie, then it is." "The fear is not going to dissolve. You have to face it and run anyway. Run messy, run trembling, run half certain — but run toward the life that keeps calling your name." "Recovering is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. But what was harder was staying sick." Your reflection this week My challenge from the deck chair to you: Look back, not just forward. Instead of fixating on the far-off vision of "fully recovered," ask yourself: what's one step forward where, six months from now, I could look back and know I've moved? Freedom is built out of those steps. Check your consistency. Are you remaining consistent with small actions over time that lead to different results — or waiting to feel ready? Sit with the big question: How much longer do you plan to hang out in Struggleville? I'm not asking with shame — I'm asking with love, because I lived there too. Stop waiting for permission. You only get one life. Just one. What's one hard thing you can go do today? Ready for more support?

A client said something recently that tore me into pieces: "I realized I've been so consumed with thinking about my next meal or obsessing over what I can and can't eat that I totally missed my son's baseball season. I was physically there but mentally checked out. I was somewhere else entirely." If that hits you in the gut, this episode is for you. Today we're talking about the energy thief no one names: food obsession. Because eating disorders aren't just about food — they're time thieves. They steal your presence from your own life. And your life, friend, is real and beautiful and messy, and it's happening right now, whether you're there for it or not. In this episode, I walk you through the honest question that changes everything — how much of your day is spent thinking about food? — and gives you four practical strategies to reclaim that mental energy and come back to the people you love. The picture that might feel familiar: She has it all together on paper. But here's her actual day: feet hit the floor and she's already calculating what she'll eat. Planning breakfast in the shower. Thinking about lunch through her morning meetings. By evening she's exhausted — not from her job, not from her family, but from the constant mental chatter. Her husband asks about weekend plans and she's already spiraled into anxiety about restaurant menus. If you know her — if she could be you — keep listening. The question at the heart of this episode If you had to estimate what percentage of your waking thoughts are consumed by food planning, food guilt, food anxiety, or food rules — what would it be? For me, in the hardest seasons, it was 80–90% of my day. A constant conversation inside my own ears. And that sacrifice was costing me everything. Which brings us to the quote that shifted everything: "If you don't sacrifice for what you ultimately want, then you become the ultimate sacrifice." What do you ultimately want? It's probably not to think about food all day. It's connection. Presence. Energy for what actually matters. Peace in your own mind. But when food perfection runs the show, you become the sacrifice — your time with your spouse, your conversations with your kids, your ability to be fully in your own life. The 4 strategies to reclaim your presence 1. The Three-Second Check-In Throughout your day, pause and ask: "Where is my mind right now?" If you catch yourself in food thoughts during a conversation, a meeting, a moment that matters — don't judge it. Just notice it. Then ask: "What would it look like to be fully here right now?" Life goes on whether or not you participate in it. This tiny check-in brings you back. 2. The Energy Audit For one day, keep track of how much mental energy goes to food thoughts. Every time you catch yourself planning, worrying, calculating, or obsessing — mark it in your notes app or on paper. At the end of the day, count it up. That's your energy audit: a real look at how much of your life force is being redirected away from what matters most. When you're on autopilot, you don't realize how time-consuming it is. This makes it visible. 3. The Presence Practice Next time you sit down to eat — phone away, multitasking off — be fully there for the experience. Notice the taste, the texture, the satisfaction. This isn't about the food. It's about practicing presence, including presence with yourself. So often we eat standing, rushing, avoiding the experience entirely. Being present at your own table is where it starts. 4. The Connection Redirect When you catch yourself spiraling into food thoughts, immediately reach toward someone you love. Text your kid. Call your spouse. Hug your dog. The goal: redirect that mental energy toward connection instead of obsession. Try making dinner a device-free zone — and a free zone for your mind, too. Ask your people about their day. Really listen. (In Lindsey's family: "What was the most challenging part of your day, and what was the best part?" — it drives real conversation every time.) What happens when you choose present over perfect: Your relationships deepen — because you're actually there for them, not just physically Your work improves — because you're not distracted by food anxiety Your energy increases — because you're not exhausting yourself with mental food battles And most importantly: you start to remember who you are — the woman with opinions about things other than calories, with dreams bigger than numbers, with love to give that was never contingent on eating perfectly A few lines from the episode: "Eating disorders aren't just about food. They're time thieves. They steal your presence from your own life." "If you don't sacrifice for what you ultimately want, you become the ultimate sacrifice." "Your kids don't need a perfect mom. Your spouse doesn't need a perfect partner. They need you present, engaged, and fully there." "You're worth loving right now — food struggles and all. The people in your life are waiting for you to come back to them, not when you're perfect, but right now." "You are not your thoughts about food. You are a woman with purpose, with love to give, and with a life that is happening right now while you're waiting to be perfect in it." Your homework this week: Choose one person in your life and commit to being fully present with them for 10 minutes. No phone. No mental planning. Just you, fully there. Maybe it's morning coffee with your spouse. After-school time with your kid. A phone call with your mom. Practice showing up completely — and practice letting food thoughts pass by like clouds in the sky while you stay anchored in the moment with someone you love. Come be part of what's next!

Why do so many physicians keep pushing through exhaustion—even when they know it's unsustainable? In the final episode of our cognitive dissonance series, we're moving from theory to practical application. Once you recognize the internal conflict between your values, identity, and daily reality, what comes next? This week, we're exploring the common ways physicians cope with cognitive dissonance—from overworking and emotional suppression to comparison and perfectionism—and why these strategies may provide short-term relief while fueling long-term burnout. You'll also learn healthier, evidence-based ways to create greater alignment between your work, your values, and your well-being without sacrificing your compassion or commitment to medicine. If you've ever thought: "This is just how medicine is." "Everyone else seems to be handling it better." "I just need to work harder." ...this episode is for you. In this episode, we discuss: What cognitive dissonance looks like in everyday physician life Why overworking, perfectionism, and productivity can become coping mechanisms How emotional suppression quietly contributes to burnout The hidden impact of comparing yourself to colleagues and social media Why many physicians disconnect from their own needs The difference between temporary coping and long-term healing How self-compassion reduces burnout without lowering your standards Why psychological flexibility is essential for physician wellness A simple "Alignment Inventory" exercise to identify where your life feels out of balance Practical ways to create healthier boundaries and reconnect with what matters most Cognitive dissonance isn't proof that you're failing—it's often the first sign that something important needs your attention. Greater awareness creates the opportunity to choose a different path.

In this BEST OF conversation, fitness hall of famer and four-time NYT bestseller JJ Virgin joins us to unpack the real roadblocks between us and better health: the difference between glucose and fructose, why "a calorie is a calorie" falls apart outside a lab, how satiety and a little muscle do the heavy lifting, and the food-marketing "health halos" Carolyn knows firsthand from her advertising days.

A listener wrote in recently and said the quiet part out loud — "I know I'm supposed to have this extra weight on - and I feel heathier, but it's so hard to keep eating when all I want to do is lose it. I've been cutting corners and I feel tempted to slip. How do I learn to be okay in this body and keep going?" Sister, if that's you — this episode is for you. Today Lindsey walks through the eight things she returns to again and again with the women she coaches — the shifts that help when your body feels foreign, when you're scared, when you don't know how to keep choosing recovery. Not quick fixes. Real ground to stand on while you find your way home to yourself. The short version: do the next recovered you thing Before the eight, the heart of it: just do the next recovered you thing. You don't have to figure out the whole road. You only have to take the next step the recovered version of you would take. Stop identifying with the older, smaller version of you — she wasn't your best self; she was you running on fumes. The body you're in now isn't your enemy. It's where the rest of your life gets to live. 8 things that help when your body doesn't feel like yours 1. Understand the recovery process. What you're going through is normal. Your body is healing, and healing isn't a sign you're doing it wrong — it's a sign you're doing it. Begin shifting your focus from how your body looks to how your body is healing. You're allowed to feel terrified and still take the next step. Both can be true. 2. Challenge the negative chatter. Acceptance starts with awareness. The harsh thoughts about your body? Those are symptoms of the disorder, not the truth. The mirror lies through that filter. Instead of trying to leap straight to loving how you look, aim first for respecting your body. That's the bridge. 3. Focus on body functions over body image. Your body is a vessel — it carries your soul through this life. As Glennon Doyle said: your body is not your masterpiece; your life is. Notice what your body lets you do. Appreciate it for showing up, even through the struggle. And as you move, shift from a metrics mindset to a mindful-movement one. No more exercising for numbers — movement for joy, for strength, for being alive in your skin. 4. Practice self-compassion. Speak to yourself like someone you love. Maybe write a letter to the younger version of you who started all this — apologize, tell her it's okay, let her know the wiser, stronger version of you is here now. You are a human. Struggling is part of being one. Feelings aren't facts — you're allowed to feel something hard without making it a verdict on who you are. 5. Keep making pro-recovery choices. Prioritize your meals. Prioritize your snacks. Prioritize sleep — seven to nine hours, because your body is doing real work and it needs rest to heal. Step off the metrics treadmill. Choose movement out of preference, not punishment. We're not playing small anymore. 6. Seek support. You can't do this alone, and you were never supposed to. Whether that's a coach, a therapist, a dietitian, or a community of women who get it — let people in. Vulnerability heals what isolation can't. Come hang out with us in the private community at HerBestSelfSociety.com, or reach out about working together one-on-one. 7. Practice patience and plan for the messy middle. Celebrate the small daily things — journaling, time off social media, sitting in nature, music, stillness. And plan for the hard moments before they hit. What are your triggers? Who are they? Where will you need boundaries? Planning is your friend. The messy middle is the hardest part — preparing for it makes it survivable. 8. Adopt the sunset mindset. Picture a sunset. We never look up and criticize one for being different than yesterday's — for the colors being "wrong," the shape being off. We just take in its beauty. Sunsets aren't criticized for their differences because their beauty doesn't need to be altered. Yours doesn't either. What would it be like to see your body the way you see a sunset — appreciation instead of judgment, beauty just because it exists? This planet isn't promised. Every day you have here is its own sunset. You don't have to love your body every day. But you can respect it, you can appreciate it, and you can let it be yours. A few lines from the episode "Just do the next recovered you thing." "You're allowed to feel terrified and still take the next step." "Your body is not your masterpiece. Your life is." "Your body is a vessel — it carries your soul through this life." "You don't have to love your body every day, and you're not going to. But you can respect it. You can appreciate it. You can let it be yours." Your reflection this week Pick one of the eight that speaks loudest to where you are right now and live in it for a few days. Don't try all eight at once. The shift back to feeling at home in your own skin isn't a checklist — it's a slow homecoming, one small choice at a time. If it helps, journal these: What is one thing my body did for me today that I didn't notice? What would the recovered version of me do at my next meal? Where can I trade judgment for appreciation today? Come walk this with someone in your corner You don't have to figure this out alone.

Success in business is rarely about one big breakthrough.More often, it's the result of hundreds of small decisions, years of consistency, and a willingness to keep growing long after you've figured out the basics.In this episode, Kelley sits down with Shauna Cooney of Shauna & Jordan Photography to talk about the journey of building a business alongside your spouse, navigating the challenges of leadership, and creating a life that feels just as fulfilling as the business you've worked so hard to build.Shauna shares how she went from a career in education to running a thriving destination photography business, the lessons she's learned from nearly a decade in the industry, and why continuing to invest in your growth never stops mattering.One of my favorite parts of this conversation is the reminder that success isn't one-size-fits-all.For some seasons, growth looks like booking more weddings. In others, it looks like creating more freedom, spending more time with family, building a stronger team, or creating systems that allow your business to support the life you actually want to live.We also dive into the realities of working with your spouse, learning how to lead well, letting go of control, and building trust as both business partners and life partners.If you've ever felt pulled between building a successful business and building a meaningful life, this conversation is a beautiful reminder that you don't have to choose between the two.The businesses we build should support the lives we want to live.The next round of The Luxury Mastermind will start in Fall 2026!

You're not at the beginning anymore. You know something has to change — and honestly, you've already started. But you're nowhere near the finish line either. You're just in it. The messy middle. Tired, unsure, not certain what your next step even is. If that's where you are, this episode is a gentle hand on your shoulder. Lindsey shares the truth that reshaped how she sees recovery and coaching — the quality of your life is a reflection of the quality of the questions you ask yourself — and in today's episode she walks through four questions she recently sat with alongside the women in her support group program: the Recovery Collective. Not questions that fix you. Questions that get to the root. Why you feel stuck in the middle... In the messy middle, we start asking ourselves the same draining questions on a loop: Why can't I get this right? What's wrong with me? Why am I still struggling? Here's the thing — your mind answers whatever you ask it. Ask what's wrong with you, and it will go find evidence and hand you a list. That's not the truth; that's just your brain doing its job with a bad question. So sometimes being stuck isn't a sign you're failing. It's a sign you're asking questions that can only ever pull up weeds. The way through isn't a better answer. It's a better question. The four questions (and why each one matters).... What would you do if you couldn't fail? The messy middle is ruled by fear of failure — you hold back because what if it doesn't work? Take failure off the table, even just in your imagination, and your real desire floats to the surface. Your honest answer is a clue. It points straight at the step you've been afraid to take. How are you, really? That one word — really — changes everything. You're so practiced at "I'm fine" you can say it in your sleep. In the middle, we numb out and stop checking in because we're afraid of what we'll find. This question is an invitation to tell yourself the truth, even if you're the only one listening. Why are you worth knowing? Not what you do. Not what you accomplish, provide, or hold together — why you, underneath all of it, are worth knowing. This is the one that undoes people, because so many women have been valued for their output for so long they've forgotten they're worth knowing just as they are. Learning to finish the sentence "I'm worth knowing because…" is some of the most important work there is. What does freedom mean to you? Not freedom in the abstract — yours. You can't walk toward something you can't picture. For one woman it's a quiet mind. For another, being fully present at her kid's party. For another, peace at the table. Naming yours, specifically, turns freedom from a someday fantasy into a real destination you can start moving toward. What these four have in common.... Notice that not one of them is about fixing you. Not one is a rule or a behavior. They go underneath all of that — to desire, honesty, worth, and vision. That's the difference between pulling a weed and getting to the root. And it's the heart of why being coached, and being held by other women, can move you further in one honest night than months of white-knuckling alone. A good question, asked by someone who cares, changes things. A few lines from the episode "The quality of your life is a reflection of the quality of the questions you ask yourself." "Your brain will answer whatever you ask it. Ask what's wrong with you, and it hands you a list." "The way out of the messy middle isn't a better answer. It's a better question." "You are worth knowing — just as you are." "The messy middle isn't where you're stuck. It's where you're becoming." Your reflection this week: Take the four into the middle with you. Don't rush them — let them work on you over a few days: What would you do if you couldn't fail? How are you, really? Why are you worth knowing? What does freedom mean to you? If it helps, journal one each day and notice what surfaces. The point isn't a tidy answer. It's the honesty the question pulls up. Come be held in the Recovery Collective!! Every other Wednesday night, a circle of women gathers in the space Lindsey holds — and they go to the root together. They ask the brave questions, sit in the real answers, carry them between sessions, and carry each other through the messy middle. If you're tired of doing this alone and something in you just leaned forward, there's a seat here for you. Find everything at www.herbestself.co/recoverycollective  Connect with Lindsey:

This is my last episode before I take a break for the summer—and every year when I say that, people assume I'm switching off for a few weeks, I'm not. When I stop the podcast it doesn't mean I stop working—some of my most important work happens when things get a little quieter, not client work, not meetings, the kind of work where you finally have enough space to decide things. August has a funny way of exposing what you've been avoiding all year—not because you're suddenly smarter, not because you found the perfect strategy, but because the noise drops just enough that you can't pretend you haven't noticed it anymore. In this episode I'm leaving you with five questions before I go quiet—not a to-do list, not a homework assignment, just a mental check for the weeks ahead so the version of you that comes back in September already has a few things decided, because that version is in a completely different position than the one who comes back and has to figure it all out while everything is already moving again. What are you done tolerating—the client relationship that's gone slightly toxic, the service you've been doing that doesn't feel right anymore? What are you finally starting—the one thing you've been talking about all year but haven't had the space to actually do? What's been annoying you for months—the website, the proposal template, the onboarding email that needs fixing before it bites you in September? What decision needs an answer—hire someone, let someone go, take the project, don't take the project? What are you leaving behind—what are you not carrying with you into the next season? You don't need answers to all five—just notice which one makes you flinch, because that's usually the one that matters most. I'll see you in September.

Light runs one clock in your body. Food runs a completely different set of clocks — in our gut, our liver, our metabolism. And when those two signals misalign, we can negatively influence our health. This episode digs into meal timing through the lens of chrononutrition: the real science behind when we eat, what it does to the gut microbiome, and why a late-night dinner isn't just a calorie decision. Plus: what happens to your gut's rhythm after a disrupted week, and my own decades-long, still-imperfect evolution of meal timing and the pitfalls I mostly can now avoid!   LET'S TALK THE WALK!

Yesterday my heart broke a little — and then my son handed me a piece of wisdom I'm still carrying. He'd worked so hard for a spot on a travel baseball team. He was sure he had it. And then the no came, and I watched my 12-year old question his worth in a way I know all too well. But after all the tears and the what-ifs were out, he looked at me and said something I'll never forget. This episode is about the two choices life hands every one of us, every single day: to see problems, or to see possibilities. Because the difference between a heavy heart and a peaceful one is almost never the circumstance. It's the looking glass. If you've ever stood in front of a closed door and heard maybe I'm just not enough — this one's for you. What this episode is really about The moment my son felt "not good enough" — and the surprising thing he understood Why feeling your hard feelings first is part of the healing, not a detour around it The two looking glasses: problems or possibilities, fear or faith, complaining or gratitude How the same closed door can mean "something's wrong with me" or "something's being protected in me" Why your worth was never up for the team, the number, or anyone's yes A few lines from the episode "You are chosen. You are loved. And I know this is hard." "Mom… God must have been protecting me from something He knows that I don't." "The difference between a heavy heart and a peaceful one is perspective." "Same event. Two completely different lives lived from it." "The closed door doesn't always mean something is wrong with you. Sometimes it means something is being protected for you." A gentle invitation If you're in a season where every looking glass seems to show you a problem — where you can't quite find the possibility on your own — you don't have to find it alone. That's what walking with someone is for. You can find me and the ways we can work together at www.herbestself.co, and come be held by the women in our community at www.herbestselfsociety.com.  Your next steps:

What happens when a wedding photographer walks off the job? Or when a photographer shows up to a wedding dressed completely inappropriately? Or when a client demands their gallery while their photographer is grieving the loss of a parent?In this episode, we're trying something completely different.We dove into some of the wildest wedding industry stories we could find and gave our honest take on who was right, who was wrong, and most importantly, what wedding photographers and filmmakers can learn from these situations.While some of these stories are hilarious, they also reveal important lessons about professionalism, communication, client experience, online reputation, boundaries, and what it really means to run a successful business.One thing we see all the time is that small decisions have big consequences. The way you dress on a wedding day. How you communicate when something goes wrong. What you post online when you're frustrated. How you handle difficult clients. These moments may seem small, but they shape your reputation and ultimately impact the growth of your business.If you're a wedding photographer or filmmaker who wants to elevate your client experience, build a stronger brand, and avoid the mistakes that can hold you back, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways disguised as entertainment.Plus, you'll probably laugh a few times along the way.

When we're facing uncertainty, most of us have a version of 'safe' we go back to. The job. The title. The comfortable path that makes sense to everyone else. In this episode, Colleen Porter shares her reinvention story — after a transition that ended a decades-long career in male-dominated industries, she tried to go back to what she knew. That's when everything changed. It was the confirmation she needed that she'd outgrown the safe path for good. That 'failure' became the launch pad she needed to finally give herself permission to fully own her next chapter — and move forward on her  terms. If you've ever talked yourself back into something that stopped fitting — this one is for you. If this episode resonates, leave us a 5-star rating and written review telling us what landed.

How often have you assumed you knew what someone meant, only to realize later that your interpretation wasn't the full story?In this episode of Shots of Serenity, we're continuing our season exploring the power of language, life themes, and social concepts by diving into one of the biggest influences on our relationships and emotional wellbeing, perception.You've probably heard the saying, "When you assume, you make an ass out of you and me," or "Perception is reality." But what do these phrases actually mean in our everyday lives?Together, we'll explore how our minds gather and interpret information, how past experiences shape the stories we tell ourselves, and why our perception often becomes the foundation for how we respond to others. When two people are operating from different interpretations of the same situation, misunderstandings can easily take root. This episode offers practical reflection prompts to help you pause before reacting, seek clarity with both yourself and others, and cultivate more intentional communication.✨ Stay Connected with Shots of Serenity ✨Thank you so much for tuning in!

This one comes at you hot — with so much love, and some truth wrapped in a bow. Lindsey gets real about the moment she stopped blaming everyone and everything else and finally took radical responsibility for her recovery. If you've been waiting to feel ready, waiting for the perfect time, waiting for someone to come save you — this is your wake-up call, and your invitation. You're not powerless. You never were. And this summer could be the beginning of your freedom. A note of care before you press play: this episode speaks honestly about the turning point in Lindsey's recovery. If you're in a tender, vulnerable place right now, it's completely okay to come back to it another time, or to listen with a trusted person nearby. You get to protect your peace. What this episode is really about Why "waiting to feel ready" keeps you exactly where you are The difference between playing the victim and taking radical responsibility — and why responsibility is actually the hopeful part How recovered women aren't better than you; they just stopped waiting The truth that if you have the power to choose the disorder, you also have the power to choose recovery Why you don't think your way into recovery — you act your way into it The come-to-Jesus moment that changed everything A few lines from the episode "You're not powerless. You've never been powerless." "Recovered women aren't better than you — they just don't wait to feel ready." "You don't think your way into recovery. You act your way into recovery." "If you have the power to choose your eating disorder, you also have the power to choose recovering from it." "Your future self is counting on the choice." "You weren't meant to live small." Your next step: The Best Self Breakthrough If this episode hit you right in the chest — if you're tired of the excuses and ready to make changes — Lindsey is opening the Best Self Breakthrough, a 21-day summer sprint for women done playing small and ready to take radical responsibility for their recovery. You'll work with Lindsey directly, get a real win, and start believing again that you're not meant to be controlled by these thoughts. Apply at www.herbestself.co — and don't overthink it. Action is the whole point. Taking radical responsibility sometimes means recognizing you need specialized, clinical support — and reaching for it is one of the bravest, most responsible choices there is. That's not failure.

The World Cup started last week—and I don't think every business needs a World Cup campaign, I think they need a World Cup angle, and those are two very different things. On Monday I hosted a watch party at my house, nothing fancy, just friends, football, food, and drinks. While I was putting it together, I started noticing the same thing I notice every time there's a huge event—the World Cup, the Olympics, the Super Bowl. Suddenly every business feels like they should be doing something. You can almost feel the panic: what should we post, are we missing an opportunity? A campaign usually starts with "how do we make this about us." The angle starts with "how does this naturally fit with what we already do." That's where most businesses get it wrong—they force themselves into the conversation instead of finding a connection that already exists. In this episode: why most businesses force themselves into moments instead of finding a real connection, specific ideas for restaurants, hotels, consultants, real estate agents, interior designers, stylists, lawyers, accountants and gyms, why your business doesn't need anything to do with football for this to work, and the one question that decides whether your content actually lands or just adds to the noise. Here's the thing—if you're sitting there thinking "my business has nothing to do with football," you're probably right. But your clients do. You're not trying to become a football business, you're simply acknowledging what people are already paying attention to. Football probably isn't your business, but for a few weeks it's part of your clients' world—and that's usually where the best marketing ideas come from.

One solid food choice can make the next good one easier, says the science. Today we're getting direct about something we're not being told clearly enough: what's on our plates matters for our health more than most of us realize, and adding more of the right foods might be the most powerful thing we can do to live well and stay out of the doctor's office and hospital. We'll make the case for adding — not subtracting, not overhauling — and walk through 10 high-volume, high-satiety foods and exactly how to use them. Plus a tiny experiment to try this week that just might kick off a new chapter of health for you. No restriction, no overhaul — just more volume, more color, more of what actually helps us flourish.   LET'S TALK THE WALK! Join here for support, motivation and fun!

Y'all, this spotlight episode hit different.Lauren is a Conversions for Clients student who got made redundant in December and gave herself 3 months to make her ad management business work before she'd have to go back to corporate.

Just decision, deadline, and doing the dang thing.In this episode, Lauren breaks down her exact numbers month by month, the four channels she used to find her first clients (none of them are Instagram, by the way), how she repackaged her offer to charge £3,000 for a foundational month plus £1,500/month retainer, and the mindset shift that took her from no self-belief to feeling invincible.If you've been sitting on the fence about starting your service business or you're scared the timing isn't right, this is your sign.In this episode, you'll learn:How Lauren scaled from £500 to £7,600 months in her first 4 months of businessThe 4 client acquisition channels she used (and why you only need 3)How to structure a £3,000 foundational month offer that clients will pay forThe exact moment she fired her £500/month client (and why you should too)Why "back against the wall" energy is the best place to start your businessThe strategist trifecta approach that lets you charge premium without burning outHow AI is changing service delivery (and why strategists are irreplaceable)The mindset shift that builds real, lasting confidenceWhat aligned hustle looks like versus the toxic versionMentioned in this episode:Conversions for Clients: conversionsforclients.comStrategist Society: thestrategistsociety.comConfident Ad Manager Bootcamp: confidentadmanager.comDM Brandi the word LAUREN on Instagram for the cliff notes version: @brandimowlesThe Champagne Clients podcast episode (referenced by Lauren): https://brandimowles.com/278Ready to scale past $10K months without burning out?Inside Strategist Society, I teach the strategist trifecta, the systems, and the offer structure that let you raise your rates and reduce your hours at the same time.

You're trying to recover. The whole world seems to be on a shot, shrinking on purpose, celebrating it loudly. And somewhere underneath all of that, a quieter question keeps surfacing in you: is what I'm doing to my body actually hurting me? That question is the whole episode. If you've been afraid to ask it out loud — this one's for you. In this one, Lindsey opens up about the moment "just trying to be healthy" stopped serving her life and started running it, what restriction quietly takes that no scale can show, and the truth she wants you to hold onto in a culture that keeps telling you to make yourself smaller. This isn't a meal plan. It's not a fear list. It's an honest word, woman to woman, for the one who's wondering if she's okay. What this episode is really about How "wellness" can quietly become the cage The cultural moment we're in — GLP-1s, shrinking-culture, and what it's like to try to recover in the middle of it The real, honest answer to "is this hurting me?" — without giving the disorder one more thing to monitor What restriction takes that no one talks about: not what you see in the mirror, but what makes you you Why your wondering is the wisest part of you The truth that you were chosen to be free — right now, as you are A few lines from the episode "A lot of us didn't fall into this through vanity. We fell in through wellness." "You're not losing what you see in the mirror. You're losing what makes you you." "If that question is in you at all — listen to it. That's not fear talking. That's the wisest part of you, the part that's still on your side." "Health was never the number. It never was." "You can feel the storm and not be the storm." "You were chosen to be free. Not free once you fix it. Free right now, as you are, in the middle of the struggle." If something in this episode is sitting with you You don't have to untangle this alone — and you were never supposed to. Lindsey works one-on-one with women who are ready to stop white-knuckling recovery by themselves, and her Freedom Formula experience is the space where you'll be supported and surrounded as you do the real work of coming home to yourself. Both live at www.herbestself.co.  And if you're in a harder place than a program can hold right now — that's not failure, and you're still worthy of support today. Please reach for it. Talk to your doctor, a therapist, or the National Alliance for Eating Disorders helpline. You're worth asking for help to reach freedom. Your next steps:

Go Directly to this Patreon Episode "A Screenshot Sent By Mistake, Uninviting A Houseguest + What I Walked Away From This Week" https://www.patreon.com/posts/screenshot-sent-159604118   Picture this: two women go on vacation together for the first time… and one text about "needing alone time" quietly turns the whole trip into emotional chaos. What starts as healthy communication slowly spirals into awkward tension, hurt feelings, and a friendship dynamic that gets way more complicated than anyone expected.   This story is part of The Saturday Spill series a little peek into the wild, unfiltered stuff that usually stays on Patreon. Some weeks it's hilarious, some weeks it's jaw-dropping, but it's always real life that doesn't quite fit on the regular show. If you're into a little chaos and behind-the-scenes tea, you're in the right place. If you love it, amazing…you can listen to the full, unedited version here http://Chalene.com/more
