Big updates for you guys today! Before we get to the interview with Paige today I wanted to let you guys know about some exciting updates around here. As i’ve been previewing for the past few months, i’ve been working on a big project with Cristina Hoyt Alvarez (who I’ve had on the show multiple times!) and we’re FINALLY releasing it in two weeks – it’s an 8 week course exclusively focusing on healing our relationship with food and our bodies. There will be videos that we’ve been recording for months, audio to listen on the go, action steps and exercises to do every week both in and out of the exclusive facebook group (where we’ll also be doing live videos to further the discussion every week). Since this is the first time that we’re releasing the course, we’re keeping it to a select number of applicants to keep the group as intimate as possible.

‘I now see how owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do.’ – Brené Brown, the Gifts of Imperfection
On today’s episode, we discuss:
- How opening up and sharing your story is the only path to true healing.
- Using eating disorders or controlling your food as a coping mechanism
- Autoimmunity and chronic perfectionism around food and exercise
- Perfectionism in eating disorders as a way of figuring out where you fit in to different social groups
- How you can’t completely heal from disordered eating or controlling your food until you bring to light and deal with any issues of codependency, self-worth, perfectionism, etc.
- Perfectionism as a way to put everyone else first and put yourself last

Paige’s Top 5 Non-toxic Products (that don’t break the bank)
Paige Kinsella is a health coach in training and the creator the blog ImperfectPaige.com. She shares her physical, emotional, and spiritual healing journey after years of coping with an eating disorder, autoimmune disease, chronic people pleasing, and codependency… to name a few. She believes these issues are very real for many people, and the scariest thing about them is that they are often invisible to the outside world. It was not until Paige learned to embrace and celebrate her own imperfection that she was able to begin to heal in all areas of her life. She took this holistic health approach a step further and enrolled in the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Her goal is to continue to share the steps that have helped her remove toxicity from her life, in both a literal and figurative sense, in order to connect with and inspire others.
Paige recently moved to Brooklyn, NY, and is looking forward to a new adventure as she works to build her blog and health coaching business.
