<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today I’m revisiting an earlier episode with the fabulous Molly Carmel, who is the founder of The Beacon Program, a program designed to help clients create and nurture a whole new (and healthy) relationship with food. Molly is also author of the groundbreaking book,</span> <a href= "https://amzn.to/3TQW7gH"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Breaking Up with Sugar: A Plan to Divorce the Diets, Drop the Pounds, and Live Your Best Life</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As you’ll learn from the podcast, Molly speaks from experience. Since overcoming a battle with an eating disorder, she has dedicated her career to helping people break free of their destructive relationship with food and dieting by overcoming compulsive overeating, repetitive dieting, and sugar addiction.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are so many wonderful takeaways from my conversation with Molly, but here are some of my favorites:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The solution to many of our food and weight problems isn't willpower or the next fad diet; it's breaking up with sugar;</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Healing and moving on from destructive dieting is an act of self-forgiveness;</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">When using social media, do it mindfully and remember the following: comparing your insides with someone else’s outsides is not an act of self-love;</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Healthy living means living in alignment with your core values and having integrity with yourself and your food.</span></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Follow her on instagram: @mollycarmel</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Right now she is offering my audience 20 percent
