SHOW #87: Welcome to the disSOLViNG fear podcast!

IN THIS EPISODE, Mallary Tenore Tarpley and I talk about life "in the thick of it," when it comes to life in the middle of a healing journey: in the space between "full-on struggle" and "full recovery."

Whether you or the people you love are healing from grief, illness, an eating disorder or addiction, you'll love this interview with Mallary. She shares her personal experience losing her mother and developing an eating disorder at a young age. Mallary is now a wife, writer, mother of two, and an assistant professor at UT Austin.

Although Mallary is what society would call a "success story" when it comes to eating disorder recovery, this interview isn't supposed to be just another success story. It's an authentic discussion about what it means to be imperfect, human, and full of mistakes, as we "slip" and falter in our pursuit of health and happiness.

⁠

Share THIS episode with anyone in your life who is struggling with grief, body image, or overall health and happiness. In this episode, we normalize the fact that it's easy to slip back into old patterns when it comes to our actions and choices. Even if we slip up and take a step back, we can still love ourselves and build positive momentum day after day.

In this episode, you'll learn about grief, loss, positive self-talk, self-care, parenting, mistakes, the power of routines and more.

Mallary's new book is now available and is titled SLIP: Life in the Middle of Eating Disorder Recovery

If you tend to beat yourself up when you "fall off the wagon," as you move through life, go ahead and roll your shoulders back and down, take a deep breath, and enjoy a sigh of relief.

Mallary and I are here to help you stop beating yourself up when you slip up. You're only human, and this podcast interview is as authentically human as they come.

Enjoy the show!
