Wow, episode number 2 of my very own podcast, I still cannot believe I did it. I’ve been listening to podcasts for years now and never in a million years did I think I could pull off having my own show. But, here we are :)For the past few months, I have been busy with this new project of mine, because I want to make sure that I bring you the best value possible, while I hang out inside your ear buds as you clean the house, drive to work, walk your dog or any other time slots you dedicate to listening to podcasts.I simply cannot wait to hear your feedback about this show, because I have put my heart and soul into this project. In this episode, I am sharing with you how my mental health struggles manifested in my behaviors around food, such as restriction, deprivation, binge eating, emotional eating and so much more. I share this, because I know that I am not alone and I spend so many years feeling isolated and unheard. I want to make sure this doesn’t happen to you, because you DESERVE to be heard, you deserve to take care of your mental health in whichever way serves you and you deserve to live a peaceful, happy and content life.Hopefully I can inspire you to take action based on my experience and learnings from my own journey.Some topics I touch on in this episode:*The chicken-or-egg situation with my anxiety and eating disorder*Why my inner people-pleaser and perfectionist comes around to bite me in the buns*Why mental health isn’t talked about enough in the wellness-world and how intentional weight loss is not an indicator of health, especially not mental health*How I take care of my heath in a non-diet-culture way*How my mental health declined, the more I struggled with food, even though I “looked healthy” to other people*What my burnout taught me about self-care and mental-/physical health*How I prevent burning myself out down the road and what I do every day to manage my anxiety as best I can*All these topics are wrapped up in 10 Tips to manage anxiety and prevent burnoutSubscribe and review on iTunes/Stitcher:By subscribing to this show, you will never miss an episode with me, rolling solo, or with one of my amazing podcast guests that have so much knowledge, wisdom and value to share with you.If you want to perform a random act of kindness today (let’s be honest, we always feel good afterwards don’t we?), make sure you leave a quick review over on your podcast app. It takes a few seconds and I promise, as annoying as it may seem to you, it will help other people find this show quicker and who knows, maybe they need a sign from the universe to finally take action and this show will inspire them to do that. Wouldn’t it be awesome if you were part of that? Thank you so much, I am so grateful for you!Links mentioned in this episode:Access to my Work Book and Coaching Resources: https://ownitbabe.ca/freebiesYour free mental health check list (Work Sheet): https://ownitbabe.ca/mental-health-checklist/Personality test (16 personalities): https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test
