    EP 183: When Family Doesn't Understand ~ Setting Boundaries in Eating Disorder Recovery 💞 (+ TRUTH just for YOU!)

    Happy Friday sister! We have arrived. Actually, I secretly wish I could sleep the day away because my bed is cozy & even though I do enjoy this time of year there is just SO MUCH To DO! Speaking of which, are you ready for turkey day? I will be showing up at my in-laws pies in hand & ready to enjoy all the holiday brings. However, this wasn't always the case for me. For a decade I spent my life dreading this holiday. I would legit fantasize about how I could get out of being around "all that food" & even around my family, who I thought was watching me with each bite. Are you feeling this way? You don't have to sit in this mess & let it become who you are and that be it. This is just a speed bump. This is just a blimp in your journey here. If you are a loved one of someone who struggles with an eating disorder and you are unsure of what to do next, you don't have to have it all figured out, but it is important to get as educated as possible so you can help support your person. In Episode 183, I'm going to be talking about boundaries & what to do when your family just doesn't understand. ~ Boundaries are a better you, & in order to be the BEST version of you, you have to put some boundaries in place. It's so important. If you struggle with disordered eating, it's vital that you understand in some form or fashion that it affects and hurts every person close to you in your life. Yes, this is an isolating disease, but it echoes to everyone around you. It's like a domino. It just dominoes over & you can be in your own feels & you can think that it's not harming people that are in your circle. But if you don't have energy, you're snapping at your kids.   If you don't have energy, you're nasty to your husband. If you aren't nourishing yourself or eating properly, you're not honoring yourself and therefore you're not giving your best version to everyone else. My goal today is that this helps you as you head into the holidays & that it encourages you to keep walking along your path to freedom.

    EP 182: End the Year Strong & Plan for Your 2025 Recovery Revolution! Use This Strategy to Let Go & Level Up

    Hey there my sweet friend~ As we enter into the last 43 days of the year, how do you want to finish? Like really...how do you want to end 2024? Sit on this one sis! You're going to finish strong. You are going to hit 2025 where it didn't even know it was being hit. But in order to do so -> What needs to go in your life? What needs to change and what needs to get the wave as you say goodbye to it? In Episode 182, I provide some strategies for you to get you thinking and planning in advance for your BEST year yet.  ~ To enter in to next year without bringing all the junk that you want to leave behind requires a present reality check. Which means you have to acknowledge the journey so far, and celebrate all the wins and all the progress that you've made this year, even if to you that feels like not a lot. So many times I'm talking to clients and ladies and they're telling me that they feel like they're behind or they should be further along or they haven't yet arrived and they're mucking through this journey day after day after day in the mundane and feeling like they're not moving forward. It's so important that you celebrate those small wins. Maybe you're not where you want to be YET. But I want you to honor the struggle and the challenges. And I want you to celebrate what has changed because there is good underneath it all if you search for it :) I encourage you to give this one a listen and share it with someone you love! Plus, I'd be honored to be YOUR recovery coach. If you are looking to partner with someone who has been there and done that, go on out to the website: www.herbestself.co and fill out a client application BEFORE the new year! sending recovery hugs, lindsey ___________________________________________ Find All the Things -＞ wwww.herbestself.co ______ Coach with Me -＞Client Application ______ Email me directly -> info@lindseynichol.com ______ Join the free FB community -> www.herbestselfsociety.com ______Need a helping hand guiding you girl!?

In Episode 181.5, I share 11 things that you can be thankful for when you just aren't "feeling it" this Thanksgiving. Some of these things may even surprise you!

    EP 181: Break Free Sis! Here’s Your Personal Invitation & First Step to Becoming Your Best Recovered Self

    Have you ever wondered what life would be like on the other side of your eating disorder? Not just surviving, sis, but truly living? Stay with me because today's podcast episode might just change everything for you. I want to welcome you back, friend, because Episode 181 is different & it's incredibly special to my heart. I'm speaking directly to you if you feel trapped by your eating disorder, especially if the thought of recovery feels overwhelming. I see you friend, I hear you, & most importantly, I have something transformative to share with you. Let me paint a picture that might feel familiar... You wake up thinking about food, your days are consumed by rules & restrictions. You're exhausted from fighting your body & just trying to survive this thing called life. & deep down, you dream of this freedom, but the thought of getting there...uhm...Do I know this place intimately, because I have lived there. & today I want to share something that could be your first step toward real freedom. Here's what I've discovered after working with hundreds of women in recovery. The reason most people stay stuck isn't lack of desire for freedom. It's not even lack of information. It's something much deeper. It's something that traditional treatment often misses completely. I've learned that it's in the transformation, it's the belief, it's in the not yet readiness that we actually find our place & that we heal. I can't put one word on it, like I can't give it this miraculous transformational word because it's a feeling that is just a feeling, it doesn't exist in terms of a word. When you feel empowered, when your soul feels awakened, & when your life is changed...truly changed because you've conquered your own mind & your own self. There is nothing like that. A feeling of inspiration, a feeling of liberation. & this revelation led me to create something super special for you. So today's mini pod episode is to introduce the masterclass that I'm doing tomorrow, November 13th at 2 p. m. Eastern, & it is not too late for you to join us. Can't wait to see you sis!

    EP 180: STOP Overthinking & Overanalyzing! Use the 51% Rule to Make Better Decisions As You Step Into Recovery ACTION

    Hey sis! I am so excited to drop a brand new episode on the Her Best Self podcast! If you struggle with overthinking and constantly overanalyzing your choices along with your decision making, & you just wonder if you will ever escape the nonsense...then today I want you to listen in to Episode 180. It is so important when you're looking for certainty in life in the moment, you start with how you're making your own personal decisions and that goes for recovery, but also just for every other thing in your current circumstances. You are making a ton of decisions on the daily and you can sit in analysis paralysis if you aren't aware. You can sit in self sabotage & you can sit in perfection. & so if you've questioned, "what do I need to eat next? when can I eat next? what can I have next?" & you're struggling with that in your mind regularly...part of this is just a tactic that the eating disorder is doing to get you confused & caught off guard. But I'm going to help you make better decisions today. Tune in to Episode 180 to learn what the 51% rule is & share it with a friend! xo, lindsey **p.s.: don't forget to sign up for the free masterclass where I teach you how 3 powerful truths to conquer your eating disorder.

    EP 179: The Power of Your Rejection Story ~ Make Meaning of Past Pain So That You Can Discover Redemption & Freedom From Perfection & Judgement

    How is your Tuesday going sis?! I am over here squealing because we are so close to the upcoming masterclass. If you have no idea what I am talking about, just register! You are going to want to hang out with us on November the 13th. If you are searching for freedom, if you feel like recovery just isn't possible right now for you and your life and the season of life that you're in, I want to encourage you to go out and register for the masterclass. It's completely free and you can hang out with me and a bunch of amazing ladies who are going to be joining us as well. Click this link & you are all set! www.herbestself.co/masterclass ~ Okay, let's switch gears! Today on the podcast, we're talking about rejection because your girl has had a life experience of rejection. And if you have been chasing perfectionism. Then you actually have been trying to prevent rejection in your own life. You see perfectionism is rejection prevention. It's the way that our brain and our mind tries to avoid the pain and the emotional trauma of feeling the "not enoughness". And the eating disorder that you may have developed over time, it offers this illusion of protection and it gives you that false comfort. In Episode 179, I want to talk about my rejection story and some of the examples of rejection in my life. I'm going to share a special story with you, with hopes that you will meet me there and hopes that you will find yourself in this place. Because the truth is that if we can look at our rejection story, we can create it into our redemption story. Recovery will be your biggest transformation. You can use the pain over all the years of your rejection to elevate you and to give you power as you move forward and embrace the imperfect mess that you are.  I so believe you are enough! You don't need to fear rejection any more!

    EP 178.5: You Are a Mighty Warrior! Break Free From Old Patterns and Take Your Power Back From Food Controlling Your Life🛡️

    Happy Friday! And not just any Friday, but here in the states, it's POST Halloween Friday, which simply means kids are high on sugar & mom's are running on fumes! But enough of the Halloween scaries, in Episode 178.5 of the podcast I wanted to bring back a message that is one of my all time favs! This one is going to light a fire under you today girl & have you showing up VICTORIOUS as you crush your day and head into the weekend. ~ A victim is a person who is deceived or cheated by their own emotions. A victor is a person who defeats an enemy, opponent & conquers the very struggle set out to destroy them. Are you a victim or a victor? Sis, you are not the victim of your current life & circumstances. You are a product of your choices. & yes, maybe some of those choices weren't the best....but if choices got you here, choices can get you out! In Episode 178.5, I share the power of CHOICE. Your choice! & I discuss 6 choices you can make right now to move you from Victim to Victor. The truth is, you deserve to live life FREE from the chains of disordered eating. You deserve to be present with the people you love & to experience more of the places you enjoy. You see, just because you aren't their yet...is more proof that now is the very best time! Victors see challenges as opportunities -> Victims see challenges as evidence of a hard life. Victors look for hope -> Victims say stuck in fear. Victors plan for the future -> Victims worry about the future, constantly revisiting the past & never fully living in the present.  Which are you sweet friend? I believe you are a mighty warrior & conqueror of this eating disorder. I believe it's possible for you!
