Diets Don't Work with Debbie Lesko
Real Women's Work Podcast
What if dieting actually makes you gain weight? Not because you lack discipline or self control but because it's the basic mechanics of your body? What if you could eat anything you wanted -literally anything- and enjoy it guilt free? What if you never, ever had to think about calories or carbs or had to check your watch to see if it was a time of day when you are "allowed" to eat? What if you could stop obsessing about food? Whether it's ogling the ice cream instead of eating it, berating yourself for bingeing on cookies, or promising yourself that tomorrow you will go the whole 16...

Confidence Coach & Psychotherapist with Anna Marcolin
Real Women's Work Podcast
Is there a little voice that nags at you? Does it grab at your shoulder and pull at your sweater and say "come here! come here! Look! This is the thing you want to try! This is the thing you want to do!" Do you want to listen to it? To go where it leads you and jump all in to try the thing that seems to exciting- the thing that feels like it's meant for you to do? Every once in a while do you think you really can do it only to snap out of the "daydream" and realize the life you are dreaming of is only meant for special people? What if the thing that is stopping you is a lack of...

Writer, Writing Coach, Author of "Writing that Gets Noticed"
Real Women's Work Podcast
Have you ever wondered who writes the articles in your favorite magazines? How do they know what to say? What makes you read it?

Weight Inclusive Physical Therapist & Anti-Diet Health & Body Image Coach with Dr. Lisa Folden
Real Women's Work Podcast
What is it like when you get dressed in the morning? Do you walk into your closet happy and excited to put on the clothes you choose? Or do you try on three different pairs of pants, two skirts, and six tops in hopes of finding something that will cover up {insert part of your body you think poorly of here}? Do you step each leg into your shapeware shoving in as much of your body as you possibly can thinking it is just a normal part of being a woman? What is it like when you are on the playground with your kids? Do you laugh exubererantly while you run around chansing them? Or do you...

Speaking Confidence Coach with Linda Ugelow, Author of "Delight in the Limelight"
Real Women's Work Podcast
Does it happen to you, too? Forehead dripping with sweat, hear trate reaching 180, hands so clammy you cannot hold the ice cold water glass you desperately want to sip from to get rid of the cotton that somehow found its way to lining your mouth? And then it's time for you to speak... in front of other people... and the whole world around you begins to spin... It's called Glassophobia and it's believed to affect more than 75% of people. But it's not just speaking in front of large groups that affects many of us, it's speaking up at PTA meetings, in social situations, and even at family...

Master Welder and Founder of Weld Jointed with Pa'Trice Frazier
Real Women's Work Podcast
Did you know that the US has a shortage of welders? Me either. But after reading a NYT article in 2009, Pa'Trice Frazier took a trip to her local school to ask if the statistics were true. Sure enough, the instructors confirmed that the US had a shortage of 150-200K welders on their hands. Pa'Trice signed up on the spot to become a welder. After becoming a certified welder, Pa'Trice spent the next years of her life traveling the US. How did she find work? She showed up where project job crews ate. She'd tell them she was a badass welder and asked if they needed one. This is how Pa'Trice began...

Brand Photographer, Strategist, and Video Storyteller with Nicole Bedard
Real Women's Work Podcast
Have you ever seen those gorgeous videos from your favorite brands- you know, the ones that show how they make their jelly or jewelry (or maybe even their beautiful tulip farm!) and wonder who makes them? Have you noticed the continuity in the images and video and appreciated that it tells you a story so you can really know the brand? Or maybe you've noticed there is an important person missing from your family photos (YOU!) and you'd like to become more confident being in them? Are you a photographer who would like to add Brand Photography, Strategy, and Video Storytelling to your services? ...

Lori Frisher, CEO/Disability Empathy Strategist Ready or Not! Mediahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lorifrisher/
Real Women's Work Podcast
In twenty years and beyond it will be interesting to look back and see the good that came out of the pandemic. Yes, it was a long and awful ride. It also gave us things we may not have found otherwise. Ready or Not! Media is one of those things. The pandemic gave Lori Frisher a new view. Lori was the first recipient of Cochlear Implants and relies extensively on lip reading. When masks suddenly covered the mouths of those she was speaking with, the world changed. Lori also became seriously ill during the pandemic. Communication was complicated at best and Lori understood the...

Jenny Goldfarb, Founder & CEO of Unreal Deli
Real Women's Work Podcast
Shark Tank may have been your introduction to Mrs. Goldfarb, too! As an avid watcher of Shark Tank I specifically remember when Jenny appeared. I was so excited to see a meat on the show! Jenny's energy, passion, commitment and joy burst throught the screen. I found myself not only cheering her on but thrilled that she got a deal with one of my favorite Shark's; Mark Cuban. A couple of months ago Jenny's name popped up in a bunch of my vegan Facebook groups- turns out, Unreal Deli was launching in the service deli of Hannaford Supermarket! Do you know what the service deli is? It's the...

Senior Buyer for a Major Catalog with Jess Shaw
Real Women's Work Podcast
Which catalogs have arrived in your mailbox lately? For me this week it was LL Bean and J. Jill. I love looking through catalogs but never thought much about how they are created. What surprised me after talking with Jess is how personal this process is. Jess really gets to know her clientele and puts so much thought into what they want. Jess and her team choose every item that makes it into their catalog. This is done through a process of getting to know her clientele and then finding the items they would like to buy. From attending fashion trade shows to find product all the way...

Do you step each leg into your shapeware shoving in as much of your body as you possibly can thinking it is just a normal part of being a woman?
What is it like when you are on the playground with your kids? Do you laugh exubererantly while you run around chansing them? Or do you worry about what is jiggling- convinced it should cause you shame?
How about at the beach? Or the pool?
Is swimsuit shopping a time for you to find something to swim in? Or is it a time when you speak the meanest to yourself?
Do you search desperately for an option that will hide as much of you as humanly possible while still being able to cool down in the water? Or maybe you skip the water all together because wearing a bathing suit is almost the deepest shame of all?
How do you eat? Do you count calories? Intermittent fast? Have you been on a diet for decades only to gain weight?
Have you been prescirbed weight loss by medical professionals?
Are you sure to get in an extra 30 minutes at the gym so you can enjoy dessert on date night?
Do you loathe exercise but believe it is necessary if you want to "manage your weight"?
What if all of that is a narrative we have been fed for a purpose that does not serve us? What if it actually harms us?
What if we spend most of our days berating ourselves, beating ourselves up, starving ourselves, missing out on life with the people we love and more for science that doesn't exist? And we do it all in exchange for advnacing our careers, living fully with our families, building the business we have always wanted to build and exploring the things that bring us joy so we can do more of them.
Join us as Dr. Lisa Folden, Weight Inclusive Physical Therapist and Anti-Diet Health & Body Image Coach, helps us understand Diet Culture, moving joyfully, health, lazy medicine, health vs. weight, taking up space, and learning to live this one beautiful, precious life out loud!
