LET IT OUT

This week not only do I have an amazing guest that I know you guys are going to love, but I also have some super important things to talk about in the intro. It's a bit longer than usually but it was something that I really needed to share with all of you. It also ties in with the the underlying theme of honesty that is in this entire episode. For the bulk of the episode though I get to share with you an incredible conversation Jordan Younger of the Balanced Blonde. Her story parallels mine in many ways and we share so much in common in our evolution over the past few years and how that has affected our lives and our work. She gets real about what true balance means and how being authentic and honest with yourself should come before anything else in life. Full show notes at: www.katiedalebout.com/podcast/jordanyounger

I'm excited today to bring you guys another duo interview episode around the theme of mindfulness and meditation practices. First I talk with Bob Roth of the David Lynch Foundation and the Transcendental Meditation movement. Most of you guys know that a few months ago I started a TM practice (Transcendental Meditation). I'm not a huge fan of mediation but this practice has seriously made an impact in my life and is a tool that has worked for me when so many other meditation techniques never stuck. Because of this I wanted to bring you guys an episode with Bob Roth, one of the main leaders of the TM movement, and dive deep into a conversation around what TM is, why it's so beneficial, how it works and why it's been popular with millions of people around the world including Jerry Seinfeld, Ellen Degeneres and more. Bob talks with us about all these super interesting things around TM but our conversation also goes into why his favorite city is Detroit (where I'm living!) and some funny stories around his favorite fruit. At the end of the episode Dr. Geoff Soloway of MindWell give us insight into 'mindful wellness' along with some practices you can start using today to be more mindful in your life. MindWell also has a 30 Day Challenge program that you can signup for with a friend. You can read more about it in the show notes below. This episode around meditation and mindfulness is definitely one of my favorites and I hope you guys enjoy listening in!

I first discovered Melissa almost 3-4 years ago through an Australian YouTube program I was hooked on called Health Talks. Melissa's incredible approach to life inspired me and I was instantly drawn to her work and became a fan girl and follower over the past few years. And today I get to share with you my convo with her about her story and her latest book, Mastering Your Mean Girl. We talk about all kinds of things including our different approaches to writing books, how to find love, balancing technology with presence, what some of her favorite routines and things are at the moment and much more. Also at the end of the episode I have an additional bonus interview with Samantha of Hungry for Happiness about work and story of how she began supporting women in their bodies and in finding integrity between internal and external worlds.

Today I have a special Katie Wonders (episode 8) for you guys! I've been wanting to record a listener Q&A for a while so I decided to finally do it on my birthday which was April 3oth. I couldn't think of a better way to start off my 26th year than by hanging out with you guys and answering your questions via this podcast. If you are new to the Katie WONDERS mini-series you can read more about the concept in this post.

Today's episode is unlike any other episode ever here on Wellness Wonderland Radio. As most of you know, on April 5th, 2016 I recorded a LIVE duo podcast at Theater Lab in NYC with my good friend Chrissy Harrison, host of Food Psych Radio. The recording included a panel of incredible women all sharing their own unique message in support of positive body image and diet-free living. Join myself, Christy Harrison, Kelsey Miller's Caroline Dooner, Cece Olisa, Aime Roe and our awesome LIVE listener audience (maybe you were there??) as we sing and play ukulele with Caroline, read a portion Kelsey's new book, answer the audience's questions and more.

Emily Nolan. For those of you that don't know her get ready to be inspired and maybe even learn some crazy things about the modeling and social media world (I did!). She is the creator of Topless Yoga and the blog My Kind of Life. This week I interview Emily Nolan. Her message and work create such a meaningful impact in the world and I am truly honored to have her as a guest this week. We get into all kinds of topics from food energetics to 'going topless'.

On this weeks episode I have two of my favorite fan girls from one of the most amazing podcasts I've been recently listening to. We dive into lots of cool topics including tattoos, podcasting, writing and more.

 On this episode we talk about how her story led her to the work she is doing in the world today along with tips and advice for others that struggle with body image and getting through their 20's.  We also dive deep into the topic of sex, relationships, and how these are possibly affected by disordered eating patterns. The episode is packed with wisdom in all areas in life that I know you guys will enjoy!

Today I've got a special guest and topic for you guys in honor of the release of my book, Let It Out! Jenn Hand is a fellow journaler and we talk about how our different (but similar) journeys have evolved with this transformational tool. Journaling started as a tool for us to help get clarity in our minds around our thoughts and emotions connected to eating and body image. Today we use it for so much more. I hope you guys enjoy this episode and either begin your own journaling practice or dive deeper into one you already have! Full show notes here: http://katiedalebout.com/podcast/jenn-hand/
