S3E05. Rewire bingeing & food noise - Letting go of perfectionism
Hi friends! Our audio quality has now been resolved! Thank you for your patience as the studio fixed the issue. This week we are discussing the complex and very nuanced journey of moving past bingeing, food noise and secret eating. I hope this episode can be of comfort to anyone out there struggling with their relationship with food. There is joy and freedom to be found in our friendship with food!
Please note - I am not a dietitian and therefore cannot offer prescriptive advice . I am however, a coach and a human who struggled with BED for 10 years, so I do my best to give anecdotal tips. If you are struggling with any of these issues please speak with your doctor.
Until next week,
with love and strength,
Cass

S3E04. Heal from Bullying & Gaslighting, reclaim your power.
Hi Friends! We have had issues with the sound tech in the studio - this is the last episode with this slight issue and it has now been resolved moving forward. I thought it was best to release the episodes anyway, however frustrating. All fixed now! :)
This week we are discussing healing from bullying and gaslighting. A topic I am very well versed in, having suffered through bullying in my younger years, in adult relationships and even at work. This episode covers how to heal from the negative self perception bullying can create, along with how to unwind yourself from the gaslighting or victimhood that bullies often use as a tactic. You are more than what others have said to you, and you deserve to be kind to yourself. Together, I hope we can overcome.
Much love - until next week,
Cass
