During our conversation, Laura shares about her own healing journey and her most common tool, writing. She share about how she has used writing to help her navigate and process the healing journey and how she helps others do the same through online classes and international retreats.

Ep 29: Capitol Floats with Jodi McClain
Our guest today Jodi McClain, here to talk to us about the healing benefits of floating. For those of you who are not familiar with what floating is, Jodi breaks it down in an easy to understand way. She explains how being submerged in large amounts of salt water has many medical and emotional benefits. She also shares about her own personal journey of healing her heart and mind in the tanks.
Jodi is the Chief Cultural officer for Capitol Floats, a business with two locations in Sacramento and Auburn. Capitol floats offers float tanks, massage, infer red saunas, and soma dome therapy.
Just to give a heads up, we do discuss trauma in this episode, specifically related to domestic violence, recovery and PTSD.

E28: Stressless Eating with Leanne Ellington
Our guest today is Leanne Ellington is a leading expert in women's emotional health and disordered eating. She is also an International speaker, CEO and Founder of the Stressless Eating Education System, author of the book Stressless Eating, and host of the Stressless Eating Podcast. Her life's work is dedicated to helping women take the stress, emotion, and obsession out of food and get off the diet roller coaster for good.
In this episode Leanne shares about her own personal journey of being overweight most of her life and that when she lost nearly 100 pounds in adulthood, it actually increased her emotional distress. So it wasn’t until she healed her disordered eating and her self-image and body-image struggles that she truly found freedom. And that is what drives Leanne to help other women break out of their own food and body prisons.
I also want to mention that Leanne specifically works with women, so it is women that we discuss in this episode. However, I want to acknowledge the thousands and thousands of men and other gendered people also struggle with their own body-image issues, body dysmorphia, eating disorders and disordered eating and it’s important for them to also get the help that they need.
