This is Hello Freedom and I'm your host Terry Cole.

For almost two decades I've been a licensed psychotherapist and transformation coach, and on this show I will bring you simple strategies based on practical psychology, inspiring expert interviews, and my own insights and observations

from my time on the front lines of the fascinating worlds of entertainment,

empowerment, and mental health.

Now let's get going with today's episode. Well, hello and welcome to Hello Freedom. I'm your host Terry Cole and I am so

excited that you decided to spend a little bit of time with me today.

This time of year you guys, there's a lot of pressure, lots of family stuff, lots of eating, lots of drinks. of who has a perfectly appropriate book coming out right about now called How to

Stop Feeling Like Shit, 14 Habits that are holding you back from happiness. So I loved the yack that I had with Andrea. I love

this book. She's someone who I've had on the show before. She's an author, a mentor,

a certified life coach, and she helps high-achieving women, let

go of perfectionism, control, and isolation, teaches people to choose courage and confidence instead.

She's helped thousands of women. I love her work. She is funny. She is salty. She is sassy. So I hope you enjoy my interview with Andrea Allen.

Hi you guys guys welcome welcome welcome and welcome to

Hello Freedom everyone who was joining us this is super duper

exciting because I feel like the last time you and I were on something together we were also talking about a book of yours.

Or actually no you were you were helping me tell my coming out drinking story.

Yes, I know that was a big deal.

That was amazing.

Your new book though, I want to talk about that.

I want to talk about the motivation for it, the inspiration for it, so let's just dive in the new book my favorite title yet is how to stop

feeling like shit who doesn't want to stop feeling like shit I still can't believe that's the title.
