E23: My Arms Aren't on Anyone's Vision Board Anymore Nov 07, 2021

Show notes

I've been thinking a lot about something Laurie Wagner said in episode 18 of Your Permission Prescription. She talked about letting your belly hang over your jeans… and that was never something I felt safe doing. Growing up, my body was scrutinized. Then, in my marriage, my body was scrutinized. Having a thin, toned body was the be-all, end-all. Until it wasn't. People often say of a woman, "She's let herself go." But that's not accurate. We don't let ourselves go — we let go. In this solo episode, I reflect on letting go and loving my body as it is.

In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I talk to Maria about what she's learned since caring for her husband over the past year and a half. How does life change when you or your partner has a degenerative disease? Also in this conversation is my sister, Kate Aks, who has lived with MS for 10 years and whose husband, Allan, has Parkinson's Disease. Together, their partnership and family are thriving amidst challenging conditions. If you or someone you love has received a similar diagnosis, I hope this episode supports you on your path.

And Peg is feeling lost after shake-ups in her relationship and business have her starting over yet again.
