A few shadow work journal prompts to get you started (thanks to Co-Create!) Why am I not showing up in the way I want to? What parts of myself are hardest to accept? What do I need to forgive myself for? Do I hide any parts of myself from others? Why? What personality traits do I notice in others that I wish I had? How do I feel when I’m around people who exhibit these traits?

72. National Alliance For Eating Disorders Founder, Johanna Kandel, Answers Your Questions: Building Healthy Relationships With Eating, How To Support A Friend, & Does “Recovery” Exist

Mon, 14 Aug 2023 10:00:00 +0000

Please welcome back one of our most favorite people, Johanna Kandel! Johanna is the founder of The Alliance for Eating Disorders — the nation’s leading nonprofit providing referrals, education, and support to individuals experiencing eating disorders and their loved ones. After recovering from a long battle with various EDs, she founded The Alliance, bringing her personal insight into the incredible work that she does. Last time Johanna graced TMV (“Thought 55. Johanna Kandel On Supporting Yourself When You Have An Eating Disorder”), the response was overwhelming! Y’all loved her wisdom, vulnerability, and tangible tools. So, this week, we brought her back for a community Q&A. We asked her many of your questions including early signs to tell you’re relapsing, how to implement boundaries, navigating food guilt, body neutrality vs. body positivity, and more. From 29:15 - 35:23 we speak to questions related to strategies around eating + nourishing your body (re: food guilt, building healthy relationships with food while eating “well”, + tips to nourish yourself). While there are no specifics in here, if this feels a little activating to you go ahead and skip go the next question at 35:23 <3 0:17 UN Event Recap 7:42 Johanna’s Unpacking 10:52 Q&A starts! Q1: I’m sick of talking about my ED because nothing has changed even after talking about it a lot. Any advice? 16:19 Q2: Early signs to tell you’re relapsing + how to open up to a partner when you know you are relapsing 21:19 Q3: Any thoughts or advice for those who fall into disordered eating but not full ED? 24:35 Q4: Is there anything The Alliance For ED is doing to help facilitate revisions to the DSM? 25:37 Q5: How to put boundaries with your friends on topics to voice without feeling “sensitive”? 29:28 Q6: I finally feel free from food guilt or the fear of certain “unhealthy foods” but now I feel like I eat in a really chaotic way without being conscious of what I eat for the fear of being obsessive with it again. How do I build a healthy relationship with food while also eating “well”? 31:33 Q7: I’m trying so hard to eat but nothing sounds good. Tips for nourishing yourself when it just feels hard? 36:26 Q8: How to achieve body neutrality? Don’t think I can get to body positivity? 41:12 Q9 I still engage in some behaviors that aren’t as detrimental as others just to ensure less anxiety. What are the best tools to calm down to stop a purge or engagement? 45:11 Q10 How to support a friend who is deep into an ED and getting worse? 47:11 Q11 I’ve been struggling with an ED for 10+ years, can you ever say you’re recovered? The Alliance offers comprehensive services, including: • Educational presentations and training days • Free, weekly, therapist-led support groups nationwide (virtual and in-person) for those experiencing eating disorders and for their loved ones • Support and referrals through both our free help-line and comprehensive referral website/app • Direct, low-cost, life-saving, outpatient treatment to underinsured and uninsured adults in the South Florida community. • Unique and empowering Southern Smash scale smashing events and SmashTALK panel discussions.

55. Johanna Kandel On Supporting Yourself When You Have An Eating Disorder

Mon, 27 Feb 2023 19:26:57 +0000

It’s National Eating Disorder Awareness Week and today we are talking to one of our favorite people, Johanna Kandel. Johanna is the founder of The Alliance for Eating Disorders — the nation’s leading nonprofit providing referrals, education, and support to individuals experiencing eating disorders and their loved ones. After recovering from a long battle with various EDs (which we get into), she founded The Alliance, bringing so much of her personal insight into the incredible work that she does. This conversation was packed with vulnerability, wisdom, and resources. With Johanna, we discussed the genetic link to eating disorders and the power of understanding what is in our control, understanding when it’s time for treatment vs things you can do on your own, the power of a diagnosis (and dangers in self diagnosis), thoughts on dieting (don’t get her started on ozempic), and how to talk to someone you are concerned about. The Alliance offers comprehensive services, including: Educational presentations and training days Free, weekly, therapist-led support groups nationwide (virtual and in-person) for those experiencing eating disorders and for their loved ones Support and referrals through both our free help-line and comprehensive referral website/app Direct, low-cost, life-saving, outpatient treatment to underinsured and uninsured adults in the South Florida community. Unique and empowering Southern Smash scale smashing events and SmashTALK panel discussions. They also have an incredible Instagram as well as will be hosting virtual support groups all week long for National Eating Disorder Awareness Week Feb 27—March 5 BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE ALLIANCE! https://www.allianceforeatingdisorders.com/ https://www.instagram.com/alliancefored/ Weekly support groups include Pro-Recovery ED Support, LGBTQ+ Support, Friends + Family Group, and more!

Natalie Joy's Thoughts On Romanticizing The Present While Chasing Your Dreams

Mon, 31 Jan 2022 11:00:00 +0000

People tend to act like life begins at the age of fame for those thrown into the spotlight. It’s an ironic story for someone who is the living embodiment of ‘leading your own charge’. Natalie Joy, certified surgical technologist and model, was thrown into said spotlight primarily through the lens of her partner, entrepreneur and former Bachelor, Nick Viall. Little does that following know how resilient, tenacious, and grounded this woman truly is. Which is why our cohosts were beyond honored to peel back the curtain and share another amazing woman and dear friend's story. This week, Natalie so generously shared her thoughts on: Her origin story: chasing after dreams no matter what your path looks like Finding healthy love after abuse Coping with projections in media (‘would you ever take life advice from these people?’) Positive self talk and reframing as a way to build in confidence Romanticizing your life for yourself, not for the consumption of others The good moods are infectious. Thank you again Natalie! Content Warning: This episode includes conversation around abusive relationships, from roughly the 25-30 minute mark, with strong verbiage around physical abuse. If that feels activating for you in any way, skip this portion or come back another Monday, we’ll be here :) FOLLOW NATALIE: https://www.instagram.com/nnataliejjoy/ Also follow us (don’t let Gaby’s asana calendar live in vain) https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod DISCLAIMER: We are not licensed professionals.

This week, Gaby vulnerably and generously shares her thoughts on her experience at the Hoffman Process (a week-long healing retreat of transformation and development for people who feel stuck in their life).

Sara Shokouhi's Thoughts on Orgasm Manifesting, Abortion Legislature, & All Things Sexual Wellness

Mon, 27 Dec 2021 11:00:00 +0000

Three best friends sit down to talk all things sex. You’re welcome. This week’s thought features the pod’s resident sex fairy, Meadow’s long-time bff, Gaby’s new(ish) bff, and founder of the best underwear company in the world b.WR, Sara Shokouhi. From the brand’s birth-story and it’s sexual wellness roots to pity fucking, slut-shaming, why Gaby refuses to have mediocre sex and why Sara deserves an award for never faking an orgasm—no topic is off limits. Because that’s the whole point, isn’t it? To cultivate enough of an approachable and (hopefully) educational narrative around a very basic and primal need. Plus, the girls unpack why anger may just be their best motivator (sounds super healthy) and deprogramming cultural stigmas while Sara poses the valuable question: how are we expected to be fully functional sexual beings if we’re never taught anything and what we are potentially taught is dripping in shame? Get ready for quite the listen and join the girls on their quest to debunk the myth that the person you marry will inventively be shitty in bed.
