Podcast Recap

Inspired by a comment posted by Crystal, I brave the rainy weather to play with ducks and muse about ‘what’s under emotional eating?’. I give some tricks to help when confronted by unexpected food and I celebrate bravery with
shout-outs to my niece, Katie, a brave international adventurer on her birthday, Cheryl for her blog bravery and a double brava for Crystal, who posted her success on bravery day!

I look skyward and wonder if I can beat the storm. Yep, I’m going for it!

Podcast Recap

When faced by food temptation do you go right away to plan Binge? Bitch? or Plan “Be”? I hike in front of gathering storm clouds and muse about this new idea. It came to me from a comment typo I made on my friend’s blog, and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. It’s also bravery day! I ask all of you to give me a call or a comment and bravely share a bit of your lives. Shout-out to Jodi and Crystal, who have shared a bit already. Thanks for encouraging me! I include all of my main theme, I’m Letting Go, by Josh Woodward from The Simple Life Part 1 at the end of this episode as a bonus.

Podcast Recap

I struggle up the mountain to my upper Zen place to emotionally pull the plug on my other podcast, Daily Adventure Tales, deal with the internal fall-out, and muse about expectations, disappointments and dealing with the compulsion to cover them with food. Also, I give a shout-out to the supporters of Compulsive Overeating Diary and remember painful times from my past.
