Magician Bryan Saint hosts Mark and me at the Magic Castle.

Podcast Recap

Despite strong winds keeping me off of the mountain, I celebrate 6 years of Compulsive Overeating Diary. Mark and I have a great time with Magician, Bryan Saint at the Magic Castle. I ponder why disappointment doesn’t sting as much as it used to. BC Mary calls the Bravery Hotline to update us about her journey and shares a great resource. New BC Yulia from Russia writes in now that she’s caught up with all of the episodes. BCs Joy and Carrie comment on Day 181. BCs Fionna and Svetlana are having fun with Color Street nails. Even though I feel like a beauty klutz, I try them and Mark reacts. Today’s dance moment is called Figure it Out and it’s a fun and quirky ditty I chose because it put a BIG smile on my face.

I take a photo to prove, even I, beauty klutz Laurie, can get my Color Street dry nail polish nails on!

New BCs

Yulia from Russia* who kindly wrote via email that she’s been listening for years.

*and head slap, BC Svetlana is ORIGINALLY from Russia…so that’s why something was tickling my poor old brain about did I already know a BC from Russia…

It’s me wearing contacts! I decided to see if I could wear them so I can go on camera for TV commercials and not be limited by my prescription glasses.

Podcast Recap

I ponder what it means to believe in ourselves down at my local park on the podcast rock. Hear my brand spanking new professional animation demo. Comments and updates from BCs Jo from the U.K., Dawny and Dave. BC Louise from the U.k. goes on the Bravery Report for publicly posting her story. BC Svetlana comments on FB about a short video I posted to IG. Follow me on IG as LaurieDreamWeaver. If you participate and are known to me as a BC, feel free to friend me on FB. BC Louise from the U.K.’s comment inspires me to discuss where participation comes from and why it ebbs and flows. Today’s dance moment is a quirky blues tune called Delta Beats by IB Audio.

Thanks to my recent first time adventures with contacts – I can rock ready-made non-prescription glasses. I call these my RockStar Shades! What do you think?

I’m excited to look ahead as I’m finally back on the mountain.

Zen flows on the mountain as I discover my own method and I wonder, what’s yours? I’m grateful to BCs who’ve been supporting me and the show, like longtime listener Pat and the Amazon shoppers. A new iTunes review from the UK. New BC Danielle from Brisbane gives me some comments to ponder about why it’s so difficult to just say ‘Thank You.’ New BCs Carol and Shona reach out via PM.

Ta Da! I feel fearless in the lull of the Devil Winds in front of our collection of momentarily silent wind-chimes in our front yard. They are held by a once vibrant plum tree that died. But that former tree has a new purpose as a hanger while a young plum tree grows alongside. Hmmm, a lesson in there somewhere!

Supportive comments from Dawny, Jo from the UK and Kelly G. Thanks to all who participated in the new version of Fionna’s Brave Companion Song, to those who’ve left great ratings on iTunes, and to those who shared thoughts via Instagram.
