    Coronavirus Edition: A Unique Opportunity to Be With Yourself

    Each person is experiencing the Coronavirus in different ways. Some feel this is the perfect moment to do all the things they never have time for: learn a new skill, read all the books, cook and or bake more. In other words, be more productive. For others it might be the opposite—the forced pause is the perfect opportunity to slow down, do less. Others might be bouncing back and forth between the need to feel like they can allow themselves to slow down and the need to achieve and produce more. Wherever you are, the truth is that this is a unique opportunity for stillness and ask ourselves: who am I? What do I want? What are my needs? Until now, many of us may have answered these questions drawing from the expectations of others, the external world. The Coronavirus could be the moment to find the answers within. If you’re struggling with being alone with your thoughts, if you’re discovering a desire to understand who you really are, or if you’re simply continuing the journey of befriending yourself, this episode is for you. Our guest is Catherine Wood, author of Belonging: Overcome Your Inner Critic and Reclaim Your Joy. Powered and distributed by Simplecast.

    Coronavirus Edition: In Case You Didn’t Notice, Attention is Key to Your Well-being

    This is a moment in history to notice how fractured and vulnerable our attention can be. In today’s economy, everyone is competing for our attention. Because of how triggering the current context is, the links between attention and well-being are more evident and salient. How do we take charge of our attention in a way that benefits our well-being? How can we be more intentional about what we dedicate our attention to? Could we bring purpose and values to our relationship with technology? Just as we reflect on the type of career we want, how we want to raise our kids, or our family values, it’s necessary to reflect about the relationship we want to have with technology. Our guest is Jay Vidyarthi, an attention activist who believes mindfulness can empower individuals to reclaim choice in the attention economy. He leads mindfulness training sessions in organizations of all shapes and sizes. Learn more about him at www.attentionactivist.com. Powered and distributed by Simplecast.

    Coronavirus Edition: Quarantined with an Eating Disorder

    The Coronavirus is disrupting everyone’s lives in different ways and intensities. It is particularly challenging for those who suffer from an eating disorder. When you have or are recovering from an eating disorder, having a structure, a routine, and permanent support and connection is extremely important to stay centered and sane. While they are necessary, the measures taken to prevent the spread of the virus—social distancing and the stay at home orders—can have a detrimental effect on those who struggle with food issues. Today's episode raises awareness about the challenges that the Coronavirus raises for people with eating disorders or anyone who struggles with food and body image; it also offers tools and resources to stay afloat amidst this situation. Our guest is Christie Dondero Bettwy. She’s the Executive Director for Rock Recovery, a Washington DC based nonprofit that does wonderful work helping people overcome disordered eating by combining clinical and community care.

    Living a healthy life outside of diet culture

    What is health for you? Some people think, “it’s eating an apple instead of chips when you’re hungry”; "having a healthy weight"'; or "having the willpower to eat salads when everyone else ate pizza". Our idea of how to be healthy and how to care for ourselves, has been hijacked by diet culture, which tells us that thin is better, riding off cravings is valuable, and working out a lot is desirable. We confuse our desire for weight-loss and beauty with our desire for health. Defining and living health in terms dictated by diet culture has serious physical, mental and emotional repercussions. Today's show is a invitation to reflect on how you define health, how diet/wellness culture might be affecting the way you practice self-care, and learn practical tools to practice body kindness. Our guest is Rebecca Scritchfield, a well-being coach, registered dietitian nutritionist, and certified health and fitness specialist and the author of the book, Body Kindness.

    Can your Career, Parenting and Personal Life Coexist?

    In today’s show we’ll be exploring how to navigate work and life in a way that feels aligned with your values and goals-- and doesn’t lead to burnout. This is a key component of the work that I do. There is a lot of talk about work-life balance, but I don’t think we should look at it this this way. It can set a negative tone and lead to feelings of failure. Instead, I challenge my clients to think about harmony--the idea that different parts of our lives can exist together without destroying one another. Our guest is Arlington County Board member, Katie Cristol. As a public servant, wife and new mom there is no denying her life is pretty full. So, I thought it would be great to talk about what motivated her to get into politics, what it takes to succeed in this arena, how she manages stress and how she works on finding harmony between her career and personal life.
