Bleep Bulimia Episode 100 With LaurieAnn as Guest on the Awakening Podcast

What a lovely and inspiring interview with Brady Foulk.  And how fun that this is episode 101.  Reminded me of the 101 Dalmations.  How would Brady train all 101?  A question for the next time I have him on my Podcast.   

At first, I was wondering, when he reached out to me, how this would relate to my Podcast.  He was clear on how it would.  And it does.

Fun pre-intro when I asked how he wanted to be introduced.  He said his last name is said "folk" like folks.  I told him I think I can say that fine.  Even with my lisp.  And or I could say he was Brady, like the "Brady Bunch".  Wanted to hug him right there.  My kind of humour.

I have always had dogs.  And my dogs have been part of the reason I recovered.  My sister's unconditional love for me also made me realize dogs give you that too and what would my dogs do if I were to leave them?

Brady shares his own story of how he had to retrain his own thinking and lifestyle and explains the three different ways we can deal with issues.  Ignore, manage or make it sustainable.

Brady and I chatted after the interview and it was interesting that he asked me what were my questions while I was eating after I recovered.  He asked that because I told him when I was eating at family gatherings when I was bulimic, would I find a way to get rid of the food?  Today it's not really asking any questions.  It's enjoying the food and the company.  So there are no mental thoughts of what I will have to do, other than the dishes. :)  Great question though.

Brady shares many intuitive thoughts and is very engaging.  And his dogs Bumble Bee and Curiosity are so adorable!  Check them out on Social Media!

Unlocking the Secrets to Your Dream Dog" Brady
Foulk shares his up and down journey, guiding individuals to realign their focus on what they can control rather

I truly believe, listeners, that this will be an eye-opener.  Michelle shares with us her expertise in overcoming trauma, anxiety, and overwhelm through nervous system regulation.

Having begun her journey by struggling with food restriction, and then binging, Michelle went on to learn more about why we have these needs. 

An excellent view of how the nervous system, and the body's biology can affect you.  Taking a new perspective instead of simply speaking to the mind.

As per the suggestion from Michelle, here is the link to the free Neurotransmitter assessment:  https://botanace:-.lpages.co/mood-fix-assessment/

What a great insight with Carly.  "Feeling emotions on purpose" was something that resonated with me. 

We spoke about how the brain is a very important part of overcoming health issues.  It's not just about what you eat. 

Very enlightening guest.

You can find Carly at www.yourlivinghealth.com.  There you can also find her links to Facebook and Instagram and her Podcast.

More about Carly:

My name is Carly Lucchesi, I’m a Registered Dietitian, Life Coach, and Christian. Through functional testing, lifestyle shifts, and behavior awareness, we can together develop a plan for how you can live synergistically with your body. We will dive into the whole story of how you’ve gotten to where you’re at in your health journey, and together decide where you want to be.

I have coached MANY men and women to successful weight loss and lifestyle change over the years. Each had unique challenges, but this method accounts for all the variables. If you are willing to show up for yourself, I can guarantee you the life you’ve never thought was possible.

Lovely conversation with Paul Zolman.  Also very inspirational.  From being an abused child, to an angry adult, Paul tells the story of how he decided to change.  He removed the permission to blame others, and took responsibility for his present and future outlook.

Creator of the Role of Love based on the Five Love Language book, he came up with a die that allows you to roll it every morning and focus on what it landed on.  He said the goal is to practice that all day.

You can find out more about Paul by visiting his website RoleOfLove.com

What a pleasure to have Clint Callahan as a guest.  Clint is a licensed therapist and life coach and says he has worked with everybody over the past 23 years.  Meaning, he has worked with prisoners, business owners, people with eating disorders, etc.

Cline has a great program called Small Changes Big Impact, 1% Per Day Transformational System.  It was interesting to speak to people wanting it all now.  This is slow and steady, making it more likely to last. 

Clint said the important thing is to be aware of when you lie to yourself.  He takes great pleasure in bumping the light, and in watching when his clients see the light.

Along with this, we chatted about burnout and the different stages of burnout.

We all know that plastic water bottles are causing havoc on our earth.  Some of us may also know that the acidity in water is not healthy, and yes, acidity in water exists. 

I asked Aaron to join me to discuss the water issues.  The taste, the acidity, the ability to reduce that acidity and split the two, and to have use for the acidic part of the water for cleaning.  Very interesting topic.

Do you hate drinking water?  And if you don't, and you drink a lot are you drinking the right kind?

This is a fun series of 5.  The first time I am doing a series, because I believe 30 minutes at a time is the best way to listen to a Podcast.

I was a guest on Benjamin's Podcast The Dream Wizard and I was amazed.  I also had him on as a guest here to discuss his ability to interpret dreams.

Episode #93 of The Dream Wizard Podcast is when I appeared, and while he interviewed me, he took notes.  I asked if he wanted me to do a handwriting analysis for him.  He agreed and sent me the notes.

This is the outcome.  

We went through each characteristic in depth, so this was a two-and-a-half-hour discussion.  Welcome to Part Five of Five.
