Podcast Recap

From a foggy mountain top, I give you a glimpse inside of my pissy mood from yesterday where I learn a lot about myself from comments left on day 32 by new brave companion, Jerry, and by long term, faithful companion, Sue. I also face one of my biggest fears and sing a song I wrote at age 8.

Learn what happened, and how I claimed at least partial victory due to the tips, you, the brave companions, sent last time. Also, shout-outs to new listener, Steven, and a special birthday surprise for Sandy.
Tired, I contemplate the trail when I'm starting out. The Zen spot is about half-way up the range.

Podcast Recap

Brave companions Michelle, Janet and Sandy all step up to the plate and give great tips to Maureen, and the rest of us, for dealing with emotions that may drive our eating. Sandy shares on the Bravery Hotline about a sad situation and how she’s trying to cope. New listener Sue’s comment sparks me to create a segment all about why the scale is not to be trusted. Also featured are other ways to send audio to the podcast and let your voice be heard.

Perfect photo for this episode because the full sun on my face in the wind, highlights my facial flaws. I’m self-conscious of my newly splotchy skin, my darkening teeth and other signs of wear and tear. Yet I’m laughing and having a good time. I am more than my body and it is good to remember that.

Podcast Recap

Brave Companion, Stéfanie, leaves a wonderful comment on Day 27 that sparks me to discuss why we should not wait for ‘perfect’ to reach out to others, or to reach out for our dreams. I share my adventure of meeting Listener Sandy in person, and ask all of our brave companions to help support Maureen in her quest to know, ‘How do YOU deal with the feelings under compulsive overeating?’
A view of how far I've come up the mountain. A nice analogy.
