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, welcome

0:40.8

for the show.

0:47.3

Hey, sister, I wish that instead of me talking into this microphone right now, I could sit

0:52.1

face to face with you.

0:53.5

We could share a cup of coffee.

0:54.9

I could give you a hug. We could share stories and we could just be together. I know it feels

1:26.2

So this is hopefully going to be an episode that

1:29.0

grounds you instead of causes more fear around the coronavirus. I know every time I turn on the

1:34.9

news, I feel like I'm getting sucked into an episode of the Twilight Zone. Everything feels very

1:41.5

scary. It feels very uncertain. We don't know what's happening

1:44.7

tomorrow. Everything is changing really fast. And what I want to do in this episode is just share with you

1:50.2

some of the things that I've been doing to maintain my sanity, to maintain groundedness and clarity.

1:57.4

And I also want to be real with you and tell you it hasn't been easy for me.

2:01.2

One moment, I feel like everything's fine and I almost forget what's going on because I've worked,

2:07.2

I always work from home.
