Martha Beck guest co-hosts in this radical conversation. Ever wish you could FINALLY attain peace over your weight and what you eat, or your relationship to money? No biggie, right?
Today’s episode, with legendary authors Geneen Roth and the returning Ms. Beck, just might be what you’ve waited for to find relief. Because let’s face it; everything you thought was going to fix things hasn’t so far. But these women—Geneen and Martha—are walking, talking, living proof of the magic of transformation.
Geneen's pioneering books were among the first to link compulsive eating and perpetual dieting with deeply personal and spiritual issues that go far beyond food, weight, and body image. She's the author of TEN books, including the just-released THIS MESSY MAGNIFICENT LIFE (Scribner), plus the New York Times bestsellers When Food Is Love; Women Food and God, and Lost and Found (about losing all of her money to Bernie Madoff).
One of Geneen’s superpowers, for the past 30+ years, is helping people break free from emotional eating at her weight, food, and money seminars. She's coached thousands of people in her groundbreaking workshops and retreats and has appeared on numerous national shows, including The Oprah Winfrey Show, 20/20, SuperSoul Sunday, the Today show, and Good Morning America.
Rather than pushing away the "crazy" things we do, Geneen's work proceeds with the conviction that our actions and beliefs make exquisite sense. The way to transform our relationship with food, our body, and so much more, is to be open, curious and kind with ourselves—instead of punishing, impatient and harsh.
Listen is as we riff on the most delicious ways to get books DONE. How to live as a writer and teacher. And live sane in an insane world.
