welcome to i’m trying the podcast. a place for real deal conversations on surviving life in our twenties and beyond. let's drop the need for a perfect aesthetic and simply show up as we are and remind ourselves (and others) that sometimes the best we can do is TRY. let's do our best and keep trying, together. welcome to the movement. xx em

Let&#39;s Thrive is one of the most inspiring and authentic podcasts I listen to! I love that Emily interviews real relatable women (not just influencers/celebs) who share their stories and struggles. The conversation flows so well and I feel like I am in the room along with them! There&#39;s definitely useful information, but the best part is the genuine narratives that are shared each episode!

Genuine and uplifting!

Love how personal and diverse these episodes are. It’s casual chats as if you are there :)

Having compassion for ourselves is something that can oftentimes be quite the struggle. In today's episode with Natalie Kelley we break down what it means to have compassion for yourself in exercise, lifestyle, health, and overall self appreciation. Nat is an inspirational woman looking to help others find peace with their bodies and learn to embrace the life they live.

As a part of her journey we also discuss her battle with Ulcerative Colitis and how it has changed her life for the better. The approach she takes to healing is through a well balanced lifestyle that can relate to anyone struggling with health issues or overall feelings of low self worth.  To find out more about Nat, her journey, or her programs, find her on instagram @plentyandwellwithnat or her website, https://www.plentyandwell.com/ The book we mention on moon cycles is Lunar Abundance by Ezzie Spencer and the artist we refer to is Trevor Hall.

The field of health and wellness is as complicated as ever this day in age with the influx of internet ‘fluff’ and trends with no scientific backing. Today’s guest, Mallory Page, is an RD to be with a passion for helping others find true health and look beyond the noise of diet culture. Mal’s favorite topic to discuss and help others work through is that of digestive issues (bloat) and recovering from disordered eating, both topics we discuss on today’s episode. From her beginning interest in health to becoming a Registered Dietician, Mal walks us through her rocky relationship with food and body image as well as her decision to become an RD. In this she shares how she overcame fear foods, the challenges of becoming an RD while battling disordered eating, and how she worked through it. Mal also gives her insight on why diets don’t work and why trends can be harmful to both the body and mind. I ask Mal about certain trends/diets and she debunks each and/or gives a reasonable way to discuss them with someone else. As our last topic of the show Mal and I discuss emotional eating and how we’ve both experienced it. In this Mal shares a wonderful analogy that helps to understand emotional eating as related to drinking alcohol and we both share different hacks for working through it. Better yet, Mal just released a guide to understand your bloat and how to beat it. It’s full of information, chicly designed, and completely FREE.

Tapping Into Your Creative Side + Embracing Therapy with Courtney Paige

We're diving deep today as I share my story with trauma and grief plus the lessons they've taught me in life. As I preface in the episode, everyone has trauma, and everyone has grief; this is simply my experience with both. I explain what my childhood was like while my mom battled cancer and break down how I viewed trauma and eventually the grief to follow. I will admit, I lose myself in the story and tear up but please know that all is well. I simply needed to release this pain in the best way I know how: through words. The second half of the episode outlines my top lessons learned as well as my advice to you on how to approach these topics in your own life. If this episode resonates with you, please reach out and let me know. I absolutely love hearing listener feedback. And if you're dealing with a similar experience or simply need some friendly support, you can always find me on instagram @thrive_onlife or my email, thrive_onlife@yahoo.com

Emotional Eating, Accepting Body Change, and Chilling TF Out with Ali Bonar

Jessica Bippen

There’s so much noise out there when it comes to holistic health and healing the body that it can be hard to even start. Today’s guest, Jessica Bippen, is a Registered Dietitian with a holistic nutrition mindset redefining what it means to find health and wellness in this unique field. As someone who has gone through disordered eating and a multitude of health issues herself, Jess shares her experience restoring her mindset around food; healing her body; and handling stress. The stress of disordered eating can take a toll on mental and physical health which Jess explains as she walks us through her process of healing her mind and body through food, professional care, mindset shifts, and lifestyle habits. The first step Jess took was getting off of Birth Control and working towards having a natural menstrual cycle again. In this process she was diagnosed with a false case of PCOS and ultimately left her conventional OBGYN (whom would not listen and insisted she go back on BC) to find a doctor that would actually listen to her. In this she finds a licensed Holistic Doctor that began to test and look at the root cause of her hormonal imbalances and gut issues. The biggest takeaway from this experience for Jess was that her new doctor did *not* just prescribe a bunch of supplements and superfoods … instead they worked to get her body healthy and alter her lifestyle before moving onto those modalities! We discuss how to create new habits that support physical, mental, and emotional health all while being reasonable for a busy and full lifestyle. The key component of this conversation is stress and learning to manage it for a long and fruitful life.
