Do you still see the same body you saw in the mirror when you were a shamed little kid? Maybe you can still hear the daunting words of adults who were possibly trying to help you, and with the holidays approaching, you find yourself slumping back into that same negative self-image. In this episode, Sarah Simpson shares her story of going from low to even lower self-esteem when she met her goal weight and finally stepped on a journey of attaining a healthy body image.  Sarah is a body image and food freedom coach based out of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Sarah's passion for self-love and whole-body wellness emerged from her own experiences in the hamster wheel of dieting and weight loss goals that go back to elementary school and eventually led to orthorexia, or an obsession with being "healthy.” After recovering from her eating disorder and finding her inner confidence after college, Sarah realized she was not alone in her struggles. She became a coach because she understood that our relationships with our bodies and food impact every area of our lives, and not enough is done to help us through that.  Today, she helps clients from all over the world define their health based on how they FEEL and not how they look, if the food they eat is satisfying and nutritious, and if they’re exercising that they genuinely enjoy. As her community has grown, she's seen the demand for sustainable, affordable programs that allow women to take control of their food mindset and body image. To continue to spread self-love and pursuit of food freedom, she's opened her online course Freedom University. Freedom University is a self-paced, financially accessible course that allows students to constructively improve their relationships with food and their body. Check out Freedom U. if you like what Sarah has to say today! Highlights from this episode include: Sarah’s earliest memory of diet culture (1:14) Getting into a body image and food mindset career (5:41) Diet culture isn’t designed for you to succeed (14:06) Self-preservation during the holidays (16:19) Sarah’s wellness habits now vs. when she first started (20:48) Getting started in changing your body image (26:32) Healing isn’t linear (32:11) The more you work on body image, the less you care about it (37:16) Sarah’s Freedom University (40:42) Are you ready to disconnect from the shame you have around your body?

Do you struggle with keeping up or maintaining the habits to accomplish a goal? We all have different reasons for wanting to improve our wellness. Maybe we're hoping to feel better, look better, or live longer. But for those of us with ADHD, the journey can sometimes feel overwhelming and frustrating. It's easy to hate it when we don't see results right away or when old habits die hard. But it's important to remember why we started this journey in the first place and to find a way that's easier for us to keep pushing forward. "If the way that things are happening right now aren't working for you, that doesn't mean this is simply how the world works. Just because this is the way things have been, that doesn't mean this is the way things have to stay, and we can find or create another way." - Chelsea Uithoven.

Are you an ADHDer who struggles with organization in your home? Today, you're in for a treat as Joy from Joy Loving Home gives us some great tips on getting and staying organized. Joy Ridenour is a wife, mom of four, and an unorganized professional organizer! - Yes, you read that right! She talks about this during our discussion. Her struggles, coupled with frustration over the organizing industry's need to make moms with ADHD feel inadequate about the difficulties in their homes, led her to share personal stories and ADHD-focused tips. Joy specializes in productivity and home organization for moms with ADHD, and I have to say, my favorite thing about Joy is that she practices judgment-free organization. As ADHDers, we can often feel a lot of shame around our environments, and one of the things I love about Joy's approach is that she focuses on the mindset of organizing with a heart to find a real, sustainable solution for you.

Have you ever considered there is a connection between ADHD and disordered eating? As someone with ADHD, do you want to have a better relationship with food to stop dieting, stop binging, and be happier and less stressed about food and body image? If your answer is yes to any or all of the above, this insightful episode is for you. I'm so excited for you to hear this interview with Nicole Demasi Malcher. After receiving a late ADHD diagnosis at the age of 33 and struggling with food issues for most of her life, her ten years of experience as a dietitian and certified diabetes educator helped her uncover the deep connection between ADHD and disordered eating. She has since dedicated her career to assisting ADHDers in healing their relationship with food and their bodies. "… there are so many reasons we struggle with eating with ADHD. I mean, we have issues with impulsivity, low dopamine. We have poor time management, time blindness, and interoceptive awareness, we get overwhelmed and have emotional dysregulation and sensory issues, all of which affect our eating." - Nicole Demsai Malcher Highlights from today's discussion: What are intuitive eating and its advantages for someone with ADHD (5:20) Nicole shares her struggles with food and body image (8:18) Having ADHD and why it's common to struggle with eating (13:57) The need for self-care (17:23) Restrictive eating and using food to cope (19:31) Dieting is the most significant predictor of weight gain, and BMI is a lie (24:19) Intuitive eating and the fear of relinquishing control (30:06) How to ease into intuitive eating (35:45) Nicole's pregnancy and her relationship with food (39:53) The misconceptions of what intuitive eating is (46:48) Did you find this episode insightful?

As someone with ADHD, do you ever have a fear of failure? Have you ever considered ADHD an advantage or that your strengths should be the focus rather than your weaknesses? I'm so excited for you to hear this interview as we interweave the two topics of entrepreneurship and wellness. We welcome AnnMarie Espina, an ADHD transformational coach for entrepreneurs, and we chat about entrepreneurship, wellness, and ADHD. "And the reason that people with ADHD are so successful as entrepreneurs are because we're the creatives, the innovators, the people who don't want to go in someone else's box. And we're like, no, your way sucks. This is how we're doing it. And so literally, we change economies and things at a global scale." - AnnMarie Espina Highlights from my chat with AnnMarie include: AnnMarie shares her story (17:22) Going for the no's and celebrating rejection (20:09) The advantages of entrepreneurs with ADHD (23:29) Thrive in life through the strengths-based approach (27:50) Having ADHD and choosing to outsource (31:38) You can have ADHD and be consistent (39:58) AnnMarie's wellness practices (45:01) Medication and ADHD treatment (50:01) What makes her vibrant (55:24) What do you think about how AnnMarie goes for the no's and celebrates rejection?
