102 Want Something to Change? Start Here. (With Marybeth Wells)

  When others described Marybeth Wells they would always use the same words - "intense", "energetic", "strong", "successful". At this point in her life, people use different words - words like "calm" and "grounded" - and yes, still successful, as Marybeth owns two successful businesses - one specializing in brand photography business and the other specializing in life&business coaching for women. The path to this balanced version of Marybeth passed through experiences that some people could spend a lifetime accumulating  - modeling at a tender age, disordered eating, successful careers in emergency flight and tactical medicine, competitive fighting in a ring, and ultimately burnout. This is an episode about change - change that is right there, within your grasp. Marybeth makes a convincing argument that the change you’re looking for is not hidden in an article or another podcast, it doesn’t require more knowledge or tips or advice - and maybe, it actually begins with blocking out all that messaging - and maybe it begins with our approach to food. **Just a heads up that this episode, as I’ve mentioned, does discuss disordered eating, some scientific studies related to eating, and even specific calorie counts at one point.  Nevertheless, I think this is a powerful episode. I’ll admit Marybeth really made me rethink and change my mind on some things and I’m just excited for you to dive in!
