012 Leaning into Discomfort with Jennifer Sterling
Hello and welcome to episode 12 of Couragemakers, I’m so happy you’re here.
I got SO much out of listening to today’s episode back when editing it and I know you’re going to love this one.
For this week’s episode, I talked to the lovely Jennifer Sterling. Jennifer Sterling is an Emotional Eating Coach. She helps women stop eating their feelings and release the physical, mental and emotional weight that’s keeping them from feeling their absolute best.
This is a really juicy conversation and we really dive deep into Jennifer’s own personal journey of taking her health into her own hands, the taboos that exist around how women look, and how we can learn to reconnect to our bodies and lean into the discomfort instead of do everything we can do avoid it.
We talked a lot about the power of slowing down, Jennifer’s advice for any woman who struggles with her body and why taking time for ourselves isn’t selfish.
This is a wonderful episode if you struggle with accepting your body, find it hard to deal with emotions and struggle with the idea that self compassion and self care is selfish.
Jennifer is such a grounded person and has so many insights into how we can learn to live in our bodies. I know this is a topic so many women struggle with, me include and I think you’re going to find our conversation just as healing as I did.
Enjoy the show!
