What a journey it has been! Since the launch of Food and Freedom just a few weeks ago, I've been thoroughly enjoying sharing my work in a more expansive way.
I thought it would be perfect to share some of the ups and downs in an interview with my very own book coach, Joelle Hann, also known as Brooklyn Book Doctor. Joelle has been an invaluable support for Food and Freedom and has also become a dear friend and peer.
I had the pleasure of interviewing my dear friend Robin Shear on SATIATE about her work as a joy coach, and I thought it would be a fun episode to share with you over this holiday season, especially if you are someone who notices an uptick in your stress at this time of year.
Robin Shear is an international keynote speaker, bestselling author & joy coach. She helps depleted givers feel good again so they can give from a place of fullness. She gave her first TEDx talk in September and will soon travel to speak at a nonprofit conference in South Africa. She’s been interviewed in TIME Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and Psychology Today.

After reading Patriarchy Stress Disorder, By Dr Valerie Rein this summer, while simultaneously feeling the world crumbling in around us with regards to women's health (nationally and globally) and especially with regards to our body autonomy, I felt heard!

So many of the ways we live and love begin in our kitchens.
And, how we were or weren’t nourished in our childhood kitchens shapes every aspect of our lives today.
Our kitchens can become a place to nourish, gather, connect, heal and most of all, share and create the ongoing stories of our lives.
It is in the kitchen where we can also find our way home to our true selves.
In my conversation with Jules Blaine Davis (AKA The Kitchen Healer), in this brand new episode of SATIATE, Jules invites us all into the messy beauty of her healing kitchen and asks, “What are we really hungry for?”Find out more about Jules:
When I came across the work of the Red School, with Alexandra and Sjanie, and their brand new book, Wise Power ~ Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose, and Belonging, I exhaled a sigh of relief.
This radical new story of menopause is just the medicine my peri-menopausal soul has been craving.
Our sense of belonging is considered one of the most important drivers of our well-being. According to a Harvard study on health and aging, connection with others delays both our mental and physical decline.
I am so happy to share with you today's SATIATE guest, Dr. Gena Cox, because her work (and her brand new book!) speaks to just this.
While empathy is a natural human response –– feeling the energy around us and connecting with another's emotions –– taking on these emotions as our own (feeling it as if it is happening to us) can be where problems arise.
Becoming an empowered empath is where we transform our empathic nature to become our greatest superpower.
Joelle has written and developed books on subjects as varied as selftransformation, activism, spirituality, health, finance, and business. She has worked with top CEOs and humanitarian activists, coaches and writers, scholars and entrepreneurs, and many others.

If you are looking for some ways to take this even deeper, be sure to listen to this weeks podcast episode where my guest, Athina Crilley, shares what can happen when we give into diet culture (including her personal story and all the damage that ensued) rather than learning to eat to feel how we want to feel, be present with our feelings, and create capacity to hold it all.
This is the first episode on the new SATIATE season, and we are surely starting the season STRONG!
I love the work Dr. Panda does, and I also love his personal story in how he became a world renowned Circadian Scientist. I hope you enjoy this incredible new episode in celebration of the changing of the season and the darkest day of the year.
Have you considered your food story?
Today's conversation will surely inspire you to do so!
Your food story includes the traditions, heartful memories, the struggles, the beliefs, the characters, the pivotal moments that shaped our eating, and all that has occurred within our (often complex!) relationship to food.
We know our health is much more than what is on our plates and our mindset is a powerful ingredient to consider. I hope you enjoy this opportunity to visit (or re-visit) your food story.
Today's SATIATE episode and book recommendation (with a delicious bonus recipe) may be the perfect navigation for you to begin your food story journey.
In this episode, I will walk you through the why’s and how’s to igniting your metabolism, especially if you are struggling with many of today’s most common struggles and health issues.
Understanding how to best fuel your body (to feel how you want to feel) is one of the most complex conundrums of our time –– especially if you are trying to sort it out all on your own.
Making peace with your plate has never been more confusing.

From Hamster Wheel To Magic Carpet
Something you should know about me: I am a recovering busy body. I have spent the majority of my life rushing, pushing myself, focusing on my productivity and feeling the pull of the ever present hamster wheel.
I could blame it on my many years of competitive sports, single parenting or entrepreneurship, but according to my mother, I came out of the womb like this.
Recently, I caught myself in a relapse...because old patterns tend to die hard.
That said, as I get older, I am learning more and more how to catch these mini-set backs swiftly.
Life has taught me a lot about what it takes for me to show up most fully for myself and for the people in my life. Rather than the hamster wheel approach to life, how about the much more enticing magic carpet ride?
Listen and learn how I find my magic carpet amid it all.
