Bleep Bulimia

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!

creating the well-behaved companion they envision. I was at a similar place, at rock bottom, and I needed to do something fast.

In his signature keynote, "From Chaos to Harmony:
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
than what they lack.

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.

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 Four of Five.

This may be a shorter interview, yet a compelling one, and we didn't get into all the Los Angeles information about this beautiful lady.

Susan Gold came on and I had a long intro for her and she said just introduce me as an author and coach.  She is so much more than that.

It was an honour having her on my Podcast as I am honoured by all my guests and love that all are not about selling or promoting themselves. 

Susan made that clear in our pre-interview chat.  I am proud that my guests are not here to sell.  They are here to send a message and reach out.  That is what my podcast is all about.  Find the person you relate to and yes!! please find that person.

Susan is GOLD.  I love the story of the body finding intuitively the pain.  I can't find that to be easy because my body still holds pain.  I love that she spoke to taking the time to find out why.  I, like Susan, struggled with self-love.  Narcissism.  It's a common word that social media made known, and there's truth to it.  Too, the empath.  And also the supply a narcissist goes after.  I love that Susan shared about letting go.  And loving yourself.

YOU are what matters.  Please, if you are struggling with bulimia or even self-worth, I recommend Susan's book, Toxic Family.  It's more than the title.  It's about enlightenment.  It's about transformation.  And as Susan says in the Podcast, it's where you start to learn about it.  Her book.  And if you need more support... reach out to her.

The beauty of Susan saying about finding the love you feel for you.
 
You can find it on Amazon by searching  Toxic Family or easier yet, just go to her website susangold.us

This episode was quite emotional.  From Collin sharing his truth in life and his pain of a life that is a book to come, I hope.  Truthfulness and honesty and pain.  It's hard to lose someone suddenly.  I did try to relate suicide to Bulimia and Eating Disorders.  This was why I had Collin on this episode.  There were spoken words of quick loss versus slow ones, however, to me this was about having someone come on in pain and sharing that if you are feeling pain, and you are experiencing an eating disorder, it IS  A SLOW SUICIDE.

I hope you find out more about Collin Hughes and Collin's story and his fight against suicide.  I know the feeling.  I felt like I wanted to drive into a pole when I was going through a divorce.  I heard the love of my life tell me she put a noose around her neck and she failed and I am grateful for that she is okay now... although still suffers from "what is this world about and why the f' am I here?"  Scares me that she still has those thoughts.  So still every day I wonder.

What percent of us have thought about suicide, and yet are scared and doing it slowly, like I did for 30 years?  I was told that.  Bulimia is a slow suicide, as are all eating disorders.

Mom told me tonight that she noticed I and my sister who also dealt with weight and mental health issues have learned how to live life with beauty and enjoy food, while also knowing to enjoy... and learning about what your body needs, and that you need just to enjoy life.

My parents were freaked out about losing me when I was bulimic.  I have had friends with anorexia whose parents felt the same.  KNOW THIS, AN EATING DISORDER IS A SLOW SUICIDE AND SCARES THE HELL OUT OF THOSE WHO LOVE YOU!  My daughter knew I had bulimia and asked me to please LIVE.

I hope this loss and pain make you realize YOU MATTER!

I remember first being on Benjamin's podcast.  I felt comfortable right away.  I was intrigued by my dreams.  I had struggled with a recurring one.  We addressed that one.

With two to three hours he shares with his guests on his Podcast The Dream Wizard, I still didn't feel it was enough to get into all the weird and grey  (no colour) dreams I had when I was bulimic.

That was for another time.  And this is the episode with Benjamin as a guest that is.

Having said that, it was interesting that after he interviewed me on his Podcast and was making some suggestions as to WHY this recurring dream may be, it became clear and he was spot on, and I stopped having them.

In this episode, you will learn about how dreams can be affected by diet, and emotions, in a fun way.  I appreciate Benjamin more than anyone will know.  It is why I felt compelled to have him as a guest here.

If anyone here who listened can relate to strange dreams that shifted once becoming bulimic or having an eating disorder, I highly recommend connecting with Benjamin.

To those who just decide to listen, I am asking you to please support his animal rescue home by providing even a dollar towards his and his wife's upkeep of animals in need.  I know the feeling  All my animals are. 

Benjamin will be back as we both speak together as a team on how dreams and handwriting connect.  Both of these are "science" that cannot be proven in absolute, yet can be very accurate to a very interesting degree.  Stay tuned.

A lovely interview with Dr. Kari Anderson, author of Food, Body & Love: but the greatest of these is love.  Dr. Kari has also been treating eating disorders for over 30 years. 

Dr. Kari shares with the audience the reason for writing her book.  She also has a program she is offering and a workbook on the way.

It was refreshing to have a different view on eating disorders, one that took a scientific approach.    I am sure the listeners will gain a lot from this episode.

To learn more about the program and about Dr. Kari Anderson, please visit https://myeatingdoctor.com.  Also, anyone who is listening to this episode can add the code RW50 when purchasing the course and receive $100 off.

I so enjoy having Ulrika as a guest.  Also known as Ullis Karlsson, Ulrika is an author who is a very spiritual person. 

Ulrika speaks to health, healing, and eating disorders when it comes to fears and triggers.  I find it fascinating how she brings up triggers are important and are a sign of passing.  It's important to get used to not be comfortable to keep being healthy and free.

On February 11th it was my 12th anniversary of being recovered, and we spoke to the fact that I didn't let it trigger me to go back to what was "comfort" in my bulimia and made me realize I truly was recovered.

Holy F*ck and Sacred Water is one of Ulrika's first books and was mentioned to be the book of the year by the readers.  Since then she has authored The Sacred Soul and written a chapter in the book The Potent Power of Menopause.

There is a lot of interesting information about these books in this episode and the fire element inside of us who struggle with eating disorders.   The energy we use up and burning up the water within us.  How we end up with less energy.  And even to that the sexuality is quite often affected. 

Please listen to this full episode to really hear the balance between the female and the male in us.  And to the menopause, it was interesting because we spoke to the fact both men and women go through this and that it is time to "pause".

We even touch on Government (controlling people). 

I asked Ulrika why she was Ullis prior, knowing her real name.  She said Ullis was her nickname and she worked to reclaim what her real name means: The Magnificent.

You can contact Ulrika at www.ulliskarlsson.com.  If you would like to purchase her books, please contact her directly.  If you do want a signed copy, you can, however, shipping charges would be extra.
