Welcome to Live Well Anyway. I am clearly not your host, McKenzie Kappa. This is her son, Roman. My mom has come down with a bout of laryngitis this week. But not to worry. She was able to record a great interview with an author, podcaster, and counselor,

Deborah Feleda. I think you guys are really going to enjoy this episode where Deborah and

my mom actually do an imprompt to counseling session. Before we get there, I want to mention

that my mom has actually opened up a

registration for a free webinar. She is hosting on May 24th for work from home moms who are

preparing for the summer. You can find it at mackenziecopa.com slash summer webinar. Now, I really believe

that this webinar is going to help you work at home moms.

In my own personal experience, my mother has dealt with a few summers where she's had to work at

home, but also juggle spending time with us kids, which can be hard to work around because you

relationship strong. And through that time, she has come up with some really good strategies

and ideas in doing all of that and also maintaining her job. So if you want to make your

summer easier, then you should join this free webinar to learn how. So again,

go to mackenziecopa.com slash summer webinar. And with that, let's get on with the show.

keep me company during that. Yes, I'm so glad I could keep you company. I know. So before we

just dive into everything, would you go ahead and introduce yourself?

Sure. My name is Deborah Felita and I am a licensed professional counselor. I'm a mom, a four,

I'm a wife. I write books and I podcast and run a blog. So all the different kinds of things. But my my main passion is to

help people get healthy. And I was so impressed with your book. I mean, I feel like I've gotten

pretty choosy about who I have on the show. And this, I mean, I was intrigued as soon as it came across my desk, like, oh,
