About Foundational Living

Return to what's true - you. RE-SELFING is a podcast about self discovery. It's about finding yourself and learning to live again after life's inevitable challenges. It's about what happens when things fall apart - and who you can become when you start to put them back together. I'm your host, Rachael Harrah. Before I turned 40 I didn't really know how hard life could be. Then, all at once, I found myself navigating multiple life altering losses. The life I'd built completely fell apart. Yet, through heartbreak and grief, I began to piece myself back together - and what I found was something truer and more whole than before. I promised myself that if I made it through, I'd share my story - and the stories of others - to bring more love and hope into the world for anyone else struggling. I'm still in the midst of my journey, but I'm no longer alone. And neither are you. We're in this together. So pour yourself a cup of tea and join me for heartfelt, uplifting conversations with thought leaders, creatives, entrepreneurs, and real women just like you - all who have overcome. From the esoteric to the everyday, we'll chat personal growth, spiritual wisdom, health + wellness, relationships, resilience, creativity, midlife and more. This podcast is for you - and I'm so glad you're here. Foundational Living is now RE-SELFING. Original listeners of FL will still find inspiring conversations about style and simplicity here, now expanded to include a wider range of self development topics. Thanks for sticking around!

   Have you ever wondered if you have a shopping problem? Or even just questioned whether your shopping habits feel…healthy? Or aligned with your values? These are the questions that my guest today, Isabel Varela, had to face when she found herself in $100,000 worth of debt - from buying clothes. Isabel is a life coach, motivational speaker, sustainable activist and artist who teaches women how to beat overshopping and shopping addiction by growing self love and living sustainably. In today’s episode Isabel and I discuss how she got into - and out of - debt. And how coming to terms with her shopping addiction allowed her to overcome her own insecurities + low self esteem - and find herself in the process. Plus, how you can do the same.
