• 30 Day Challenges and Tough Times: Kelsea - Session 3 (Part 1)

  BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Episode 201 — Staying Grounded After a Slip: Kelsea – Session 3In this follow-up coaching session, Kelsea opens up about a tough moment with food earlier in the week — and what makes this conversation powerful is what she didn’t do: she didn’t throw in the towel. Instead, she reflected, regrouped, and got back on track.We talk about shifting the focus away from the number on the scale and toward how daily habits feel. Kelsea is learning that progress isn’t just about physical changes; it’s about emotional resilience, mental clarity, and self-compassion.Together, we dig into her 30-day tracker, explore how stress can reignite old binge eating patterns, and discuss tools she’s using to stay grounded — like the Happy Scale app for gentle progress tracking and daily time-mapping for more intentional living.Kelsea shares how she’s practicing being more present with her kids, planning ahead for tricky social events, and noticing when she’s moving her own goal posts — a classic sign of self-sabotage and all-or-nothing thinking.We also explore the deeper challenge of giving yourself grace after a slip-up, learning to enjoy fun without guilt, and letting go of the need for outside validation.Past Episodes You May Love:Episode 37: How to Find Your PurposeEpisode 48: How to Be More ProductiveWant to know more about living a slowed down life?!Simple Shortcuts to Peace Course - https://stephanieodea.com/peaceNew Year, New You Mini Challenge - https://stephanieodea.com/newyouJoin me for my LIVE Masterclass - https://stephanieodea.com/masterclass/Website - https://stephanieodea.comBlog - https://stephanieodea.com/blog/Slow Living Podcast - https://stephanieodea.com/podcastSpeaking Opportunities - https://stephanieodea.com/speaking/Coaching Opportunities - https://stephanieodea.com/coaching/Courses - https://stephanieodea.com/courses/Contact - stephanieodea.com/contact/

• Binge Eating and Tricky Relationships: Kelsea - Session 2 (Part 2)

  BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE!Episode 200 — Binge Eating and Tricky Relationships: Kelsea – Session 2 (Part 2)In this milestone episode of the Slow Living Podcast, we continue our real-time coaching journey with Kelsea as she courageously opens up about her relationship with food, her family, and her own self-worth.This session dives deep into two major themes:Healing patterns with food — including binge eating, finding flexibility with “rules,” and reframing how to celebrate wins without guilt.Navigating tricky relationships — having hard but honest conversations with loved ones, setting boundaries that actually stick, and finding confidence in speaking up for yourself while still showing compassion.Kelsea shares updates on her recent wins, including successfully closing her kitchen at 8 p.m., walking over 10,000 steps a day, delaying cannabis use until later in the day, and sharing her progress with both her husband Ryan and her dad — who are both proud of her growth. She also talks about how binaural beats have helped her quiet the constant “negative chatter” and Automatic Negative Thoughts (ANTs).We explore the limits of strategies like “grey rocking” when dealing with challenging family members, and how shifting to a more confident, self-assured approach can feel both liberating and uncomfortable. Kelsea reflects on the tension between wanting to “figure things out” alone versus letting others in for support.Finally, we discuss the importance of creating a three-year vision with Ryan, planning ahead for potential stressors (like upcoming birthdays), and embracing flexibility rather than all-or-nothing thinking.Recommended Books to Read: Brain over Binge: Why I Was Bulimic, Why Conventional Therapy Didn't Work, and How I Recovered for Good Never Binge Again(tm): Reprogram Yourself to Think Like a Permanently Thin Person.
