0:00.0	Hello and welcome. This is Jesse Jean and you're listening to the Dear Body Podcast.
0:07.6	I spent 10 years stuck in the diet binge cycles hating my body and ending women who seem to have it all because I never felt enough.
0:16.0	And what I discovered in my journey to food freedom, radical self-love, and becoming an eating psychology coach
0:21.3	is this. You can either live your life at war with your mind or learn to work in sync with it.
0:27.8	And that is what this podcast is all about. We get real, we get raw, and we hold nothing back.
0:35.6	So if you're ready to learn how to work in sync with your mind and evolve your life,

1:27.4	for yourself, I just
1:28.6	want to normalize the shit. I want to normalize the hardship. I want to normalize the truth of
1:34.1	chasing big dreams and creating an exceptional life and what's required in order to make that
1:39.8	happen because it's not all lollipops and rainbows. And I think we need to talk about that more often
1:44.8	because it can get discouraging when we see everybody's highlight reels of what they've accomplished
