745.. Breaking Free from Perfectionism w/ Emily Ford

JOIN OUR PATREON!: www.patreon.com/bettertogetherwithmaria Five years ago, the phrase #MeToo meant something completely different than it does today, and a lot of that has to do with @GretchenCarlson, the TV personality and well-known host famously launched FOX's sexual harassment investigation against Roger Ailes, and is now considered a major catalyst for the profound workplace reform that has swept across global offices. In the interview, Gretchen and I discuss the reasons women are often afraid to step up, why Gretchen's new cause is dismantling the toxic NDA infrastructure that keeps women silent, and the main reason she chose to tell her truth, despite being the ONLY one to come forward at FOX when she did.This is a must listen episode for ANYONE.  We can all grow and learn from Gretchen. Courage is contagious as she says, so share with a friend, we ALL need to hear this.Share with someone who loved the movie @Bombshell as much as I did... and make sure you listen for Gretchen's Bombshell #2 she drops...!!

Do you consider "Dairy Queen" both a soft serve chain, and a perfect descriptor of your relationship to cheese? If so, I'm about to give you some tough love in honor of #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth. @DrKristiFunk, one of the world's leading experts in Breast cancer research and prevention, says that diary is one of the worst cancer fuels we can be putting in our body. Yep, and the CONNECTION between our dairy-obsessed culture and the motives of our very government will make your jaw drop. But it's not ALL bad news. Dr. Funk has some amazing milk alternatives, like soy, almond, and cashew, and says that ONE of those alternatives literally causes cancer cells to commit suicide! Which milk option? You'll have to tune into see.Tag your cheese obsessed friend below ,  because they HAVE to hear the truth! And make sure you subscribe on YouTube for the full show! (Link in Bio!)

The magazines call her Jennifer Lopez's psychic, but she is SO much more than that.   Jae Rae blew my mind today. She's part medium, part therapist, part life coach, part tough-talking New York auntie, and ALL genius. Together, we talk about the power hidden deep within all of us, what it means to align our intentions with our desires, and yes, even get her predictions on who is going to win the election in November. If EVER there were a must-see episode of my show, it's this.   RESOURCES:   Jae's Website: www.jaeraelive.com  Jae's Socials: @JAE RAE LIVE --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support
