Last Saturday

I’m still ecstatic over the Feed Your Soul, Feed Your Body workshop I did on Saturday. It was an amazing afternoon with incredible women who came and shared their stories. We came together to talk about the ways we use food for emotional reasons and identify what we really want in those moments--to learn to feed our souls so that we don't feed our bodies when it's not appropriate.



It was such an amazing gift to listen to each woman talk about her issues and see myself in each one of them. I am such a believer in people telling their stories—we all think we’re crazy and alone in what we do when in fact there are lots of other people struggling with the same things only no one talks about it. The tagline for the workshop is "learn to provide yourself with true nourishment that goes beyond bingeing, dieting, and the need to have the perfect body." I realize it's a tall order but I know it's possible and it is my great joy to help the women of the world get off the diet/binge rollercoaster and embrace the amazing, gorgeous, powerful creatures that they are.
