LET IT OUT

It's a rarity to have a repeat guest on the podcast, when someone returns it means I especially love talking with them. Kelsey's first time on the podcast (her very first podcast!) was in 2015 when her first book, her memoir Big Girl came out, then she was was one of the panelists on my firs live podcast episode in 2016, and now she's back with her newest book a retrospective on the show Friends called I'll Be There For You: The One About Friends. We obviously gush about our love and experience with Friends and how much I loved her book, but we also talk about where she is now in her life. Since she last did the podcast she got married and left her full time writing position at Refinery 29, so I asked her relationship and freelance advice. Recently she ended the column she founded at Refinery 29, The Anti-Diet Project which chronicled her experience, and the experience of others (including this essay I wrote) with intuitive eating and giving up dieting, so I asked her where she is with all of that now. Kelsey is eloquent, dynamic, and oh so articulate so I always love chatting with her and especially loved this conversation, which ranged from friendship to her writing strategies.

I've been following one today's two guests, yoga superstar Kathryn Budig since I first started doing yoga in high school. She was my yoga idol. Over the years I've read her recipes, bought her books, and watched her talks. Today's other guest and Kathryn's now wife, sports journalist and author, Kate Fagan came into my life more recently when my friend Rose introduced me to their podcast Free Cookies a few years ago. Instantly, I fell in love with their dynamic, the subject matter they covered, their humor, and eventually their free relationship advice or as they call it, cookies. My love of them as a couple led me to get to know & love Kate and her work individually as well, in this episode we talk about the important book she wrote last year, What Made Maddy Run and her own impressive career as a sports journalist. I loved speaking with these two and could have talked to them for hours. We recorded this conversation just a couple days before their wedding, which is why it's a bit shorter than other episodes but think of this one like what they say about a mini-skirt--covers everything but will leave you wanting more.

This episode is so special to me. I'm not even hosting it. Stephanie was the winner of the contest for my workshop that helps people start podcasts: Let [a podcast] Out and this is the first episode of the wonderful podcast she created: Rethinking It. I'm so happy she took the workshop and followed through because there's now a helpful, entertaining, vulnerable conversation podcast on iTunes. This episode interview Stephanie on what it was like to start a podcast and then, I get to hear two of my favorite people talk about topics I'm constantly curious about: becoming a less rigid and more flexible, person, intuitive eating and how that leads to intuitive living, vulnerability in live, social media boundaries, body image, how Simi dealt with the loss of a parent last year and more. Give it a listen.

This week we are welcoming a new sponsor - Ned! Ned offers wonderful hemp products made from organic materials in small batches to help with anxiety and insomnia relief, natural pain relief, as an anti-inflammatory, and so much more . I have tried so many CBD products but Ned is one of the best! They extract their oils from hemp flowers using a slow and mindful process, and infuse each batch with binaural beats and happy loving energy. I love that on their dosage instructions on the bottle it reminds me to take 3 deep breaths before using. It's such a grounding process and I'm so excited to share their wonderful products with Let It Out Listeners.
