  • Ep 227: Advocating for Hormonal Health During and After Menopause with Dr. Marcia Harris
    Jul 1 2025

I have been reading Rita’s book recently. When I downloaded it to my Kindle I browsed a bit through my library and noticed all the other books about dieting I’ve started reading and abandoned. A little voice inside me said, “Oh here you go again, yet another diet book you’ll start and never finish”.  But from the start, it showed me I’m not the only one who does kind of thing and I don’t need to beat myself up over it. Time to pick myself up and keep going.
I started listening to the podcast to help me stay in the right frame of mind. My plan is to listen to the new one each week and also go back and listen to an old one each day. Today I listened to Ep 7 with Julie Kim. Oh my goodness, this is me! I’ve done these exact same things.
I’m more hopeful than ever that I can work on my mindset and progress on my journey using this podcast as one of my tools.
