How to Respond to Your Darkest Thoughts and Feelings

When you find yourself in the fight of your life... When you wake up in hell... Trapped in a mental prison that no one else can see... there are no bonus points awarded for difficulty. There is no such thing as perfection. Only escape. Freedom. Any voice telling you you're not allowed to take the path of least resistance out of hell is not a voice invested in your freedom, but in your confinement.  Always, Always, always take the Easy Way Out.  This podcast is about transforming your life from the inside out. Trauma recovery. Healing. Success. Relationships. Career. Rebuilding self-trust and love. It primarily uses weight loss as the proving ground, but the concepts shared in this show carry to practically every aspect of life.
