5 Signs Your Food Struggles Actually Have NOTHING To Do With Food (Sign #4: Breaking Free from Black-and-White Thinking) (Outweigh) Mar 23, 2024

Show notes

OUTWEIGH: Do you find yourself trapped in a cycle of labeling everything as "good" or "bad," "right" or "wrong," especially when it comes to food and your body?

We'll explore how this rigid mentality permeates every aspect of your life, fostering feelings of guilt, shame, and restriction. Tune in as we uncover the detrimental effects of this binary, all-or-nothing approach and provide strategies to embrace a more nuanced and balanced perspective.

4 Gut Instincts You Should Not Ignore (5th Thing) Mar 19, 2024

Show notes

Kat asks Amy what she learned this last year of her life since she's now 43 years old (as of this week) and she also asks about a fun memory from the year (since it was a rough year around the sun with the divorce and all!) Have you ever rubbed your eyelids?? Because that's a thing you'll learn about in this episode...and it's something Amy enjoys very much!

Quote:

“Some people talk to you in ‘their free time’... and some people ‘free their time’ to talk to you. Make sure you know the difference.” -Someone’s Grandpa

They also talk about 4 gut instincts we should not ignore:

1) A Sense That You Are Not Well:

For example, Amy felt "off" so she got blood work and turns out she has very low testosterone (like very, very low!!) and that is causing her to feel very spacey. She's getting some cream to run on the back of her leg, so we shall see if that helps.

2) Excitement About An Opportunity:

Excitement is your intuition’s way of saying that something about that opportunity is resonating with your soul (so don't let your logical mind talk you out of something you feel is aligned for you!!)

3) A Feeling Of Danger:

When you feel an immense sense of nervousness, take it seriously (better to be safe than sorry!)

4) Being Drawn To Someone:

People are in our life for a reason, a season or a lifetime! (IYKYK: Amy is going to frame this for Kat's office because Kat doesn't think it's that deep, but Amy does haha)

Ashley Wahler on The Hills, Addiction Recovery, & Shooting Her Shot with Keith Urban Mar 14, 2024

Show notes

Ashley Wahler, celebrity hair stylist and TV personality, and wife to Jason Wahler (known for his appearances on Laguna Beach and The Hills) joins Amy on today’s episode.

Ashley talks reality TV, her husband’s experiences with addiction, and learning how to be a partner to someone in recovery – including facing her own codependency issues and educating herself on alcoholism as a disease.

When you are in the depths of dealing with someone with addiction, it is a lonely place to be. Jason’s addictions led to them losing everything, and led Ashley to lose who she was – feeling depressed and soulless, and living with someone in the depths of their disease with no tools to fix it.

Ashley learned that struggling alone is not an option and that recovery is a disease that touches the whole family. She is now helping and supporting others with the Family Recovery Foundation who offer free zoom meetings with a licensed therapist to any family dealing with addiction.

PLUS – Ashley dishes on her hair stylist secrets: her favorite hair dryer, why you shouldn’t be using dry shampoo, how hot your hair tools should be, and how much hair shedding is normal!

Navigating Narcissism, Social Etiquette, & Embracing Imperfections (5th Thing) Mar 05, 2024

Show notes

Kat is back from her honeymoon!! While Kat was gone, Amy messed up a podcast & we got a voicemail line!! We want to hear from you! Give us a call at 877-207-2077 to leave us a message (don’t forget to say your name & where you’re from!)
Amy & Kat played and respond to some of our voicemails about:
* Dealing with someone that’s a narcist, not overutilizing the term, and why someone doesn’t need to be a narcist to be someone that you don’t want to be with
* Tips on how to greet people when you don’t know if you’ve met them before
* Not feeling bad about yourself when you mess something up – things happen, just roll with it!
* Letting other people know about your mistakes makes it less shameful (shoutout to our listener Ami and her podcast, The Honey Bee Hill)!
* Plus, Amy’s sister just met Mel Robbins randomly in a hotel lobby - did she high five her or hug her??
Today’s quote: “I did a lot of things, not in the right way. Some may even call them mistakes. I just call them scars that keep me from touching the oven too long when it’s hot.” – Cleo Wade
ICYMI - check out Amy’s episode with Chase: How to Move On After You’ve Messed Up, Embracing Surrender, Gratitude, and Generosity
