I chat with Katie Dalebout who’s pretty much a human hug for your soul. I love this episode so much. Katie shares so much wisdom, honesty and valuable tools for enjoying your beautiful life.

We Talk About:

The highs and lows of moving to a new city (Katie just moved to NYC) and what it’s taught Katie about control and connection

How Katie got started with her podcast, her journey through anorexia to orthorexia to healing her eating disorder through creative exploration

We talk a lot about control and why it’s at the root of a lot of our disordered eating and anxeities

Challenging your fears and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone

How facing fears and hard things unlocks amazing memories and connections and happiness and why you can always start small

The importance of connection in wellness and health

Why our bodies and minds are more resilient that we believe

We dive into how we both discovered intuitive eating and how learning to eat intuitively can unlock so much more life (outside of food obsession)

How healing from your disordered eating can help you finally give a shit about your life and not just your food

We talk about comparison on the industry and the diet industry and how they sell us the idea that we can manipulate our bodies into happiness

Why it helps to get mad at diet culture in order to heal and recover

The difference between using healthy habits as tools versus being ruled by your healthy habits

 

 

This Episode is Perfect for Anyone Who:

  • Has struggled with an eating disorder or disordered eating or even been on a diet
  • Anyone who is looking to infuse more creativity into their life (but maybe doesn’t think they’re creative)
  • Wants to build more meaningful relationships in their life
  • I know I say this a lot, but pretty much anyone because Katie is such a light and joy and shares so much happiness and wisdom

Talia and I graduated together from Ithaca College back in 2014. Since then Talia’s lived in New York City and dabbled in several industries before creating a successful freelance writing career. This year she’s been planning a big trip to travel to Colorado and pursue her love of snowboarding. Our conversation is my favorite mix of personal stories, plenty of realness with tons of actionable practical tips. I love how direct Talia is. It’s seriously a breath of fresh air. She tells it how it is with humility. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your life and felt trapped for how to get out of that rut then this episode is SO for you.

 

We Talk About:

  • Life after college, the hard parts no one talks about
  • Getting out of idea mode and taking action when you’re starting something
  • Why it’s important to acknowledge the sacrifices before you get started
  • How to create a realistic plan when you have a big goal
  • Why Talia’s moving to Colorado for a year (and how she saved to do it)
  • Balancing being goal driven while also enjoying and being happy in the present
  • How Talia used the simple power of listening to grow her blog (crazy) fast
  • Talia’s biggest Instagram and tips for organic growth (with high engagement)

This Episode is Perfect For Anyone Who:

  • Has lots of idea but isn’t sure how to get started
  • Appreciates real conversations about what goes behind the “success” story
  • Wants to move somewhere new but doesn’t know how
  • Is in the freelance/blog/small business space and wants tips for growing in a genuine way

We're switching gears today and doing a solo show! Today I'm sharing my story about how I started to tune into my intuition and get in the driver's seat of my life in the past two years. My goal with this episode is to give you context on where I'm coming from when I talk about intuition in terms of life, movement and eating.

I learn through story, which is why I want to share my own in hopes that you can learn from it too. I know that your story will be different from my own, but I think we can all learn from each other. At the end of the episode I'm also sharing some wonderful things that have happened as a result of listening to my intuition as well as some tools you can try to apply yourself to tune into your own intuition.

  • Why I took a step back from a traditional career to move home for a year
  • Deciding to save money to move to London
  • What I learned working at a coffee shop
  • Building more relationships and how it positively impacted my happiness
  • Why intuitive movement was the biggest catalyst for changing my relationship with food
  • Meeting my now boyfriend, Chris and how it helped me let go of food rules

  • Where I'm at today and how I use intuition in my business
  • Some wonderful things that have happened as a result of listening to my inuition
