There's a big connection between our relationship with food and money.
This week on the show, Bethany is chatting with Jillian Lama, who is a master certified life and health coach and creator of the Body You Crave Method. They dive deep into the connections we have with food and money, as well as where we find our worth.
Jillian talks about "Buffering" which avoiding emotions by replacing them with something else like eating. Bethany talks about why she is no longer apart of the clean plate club, and how that came from a scarcity mindset. Jillian talks about how we have similar mindset with money as well.
Bethany shares how she believes that we have to fix our relationship with food or money in order to be a good model for our children. And Jillian shares how we can detach our self worth to those numbers on the scale or in our bank account.

As moms and as women, we have so many thoughts and feelings around our body image. With fads and diets and a beauty industry that makes billions each year off insecurities, it is no wonder we can some times feel as though we aren't measuring up.
Join Bethany in the first of a three part series on body image and our relationship with food as she shares her personal journey with weight, her relationship with food, and how she learned to be comfortable in her own skin.

Everyone has a unique experience when it comes to breastfeeding or formula feeding their child. This is a no-shaming episode where Bethany and Marissa talk about their experiences with breastfeeding and formula feeding. If you have questions about either of these, we encourage you to consult your child's pediatrician to find the best solution for you and your baby.
