Jill is going to be talking to us about a topic
00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:19.640
that I'm very very interested in, which is how
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:23.060
to go from overwhelmed to unstoppable, how successful
00:01:23.060 --> 00:01:25.760
women can transform their relationship with food
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:29.640
and stress. So welcome, Jill. Thank you so much.
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:33.920
I'm glad to be here. This is a topic that I am
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:35.819
feeling like there's not enough people talking
00:01:35.819 --> 00:01:39.840
about out there, and that is what women, us women
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:44.769
entrepreneurs do to ourselves. in the ups and
00:01:44.769 --> 00:01:48.409
downs of running a business. So can you share
00:01:48.409 --> 00:01:52.349
a little bit about what you see causes overwhelm
00:01:52.349 --> 00:01:57.129
in a busy entrepreneur's life? Yes, I would love
00:01:57.129 --> 00:02:01.090
to share my perspective on that. So I know as
00:02:01.090 --> 00:02:04.430
women in general, and I can speak for myself,
00:02:05.069 --> 00:02:09.330
the women closest to me, my sisters, my clients,
00:02:09.849 --> 00:02:13.849
I have found that most people are very eager
00:02:13.849 --> 00:02:16.469
to take on as much as possible, get as done as
00:02:16.469 --> 00:02:19.289
much as possible, produce, produce, produce.
00:02:19.750 --> 00:02:22.150
Some of us are a little bit attached to approval
00:02:22.150 --> 00:02:25.569
and validation and we are driven to take on even
00:02:25.569 --> 00:02:28.590
more. And I've also noticed that those of us
00:02:28.590 --> 00:02:32.110
that give a lot find people that love to put
00:02:32.110 --> 00:02:36.110
more on us. So the takers love to put more on
00:02:36.110 --> 00:02:40.819
the givers. And that whole system seems to perpetuate
00:02:40.819 --> 00:02:43.360
itself. And the next thing we know, we've kind
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:46.400
of forgotten about us, because we're so tied
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:50.979
into productivity, accomplishment, and getting
00:02:50.979 --> 00:02:53.520
the next thing done sooner than later, as well
00:02:53.520 --> 00:03:01.530
as we could possibly do it. Absolutely. Well,
00:03:01.629 --> 00:03:06.050
I know that for myself and other colleagues that
00:03:06.050 --> 00:03:10.669
I've spoken to about this, what happens is that
00:03:10.669 --> 00:03:15.189
with those ups and downs and with feeling like
00:03:15.189 --> 00:03:19.430
you are taking care of everybody else, and then
00:03:19.430 --> 00:03:23.530
also being an entrepreneur and knowing that there
00:03:23.530 --> 00:03:26.930
are ebbs and flows as an entrepreneur, what happens
00:03:26.930 --> 00:03:32.099
is we tend to I want to call it self -medicate
00:03:32.099 --> 00:03:36.879
but you know maybe grab something that's a little
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:41.319
bit sugary when something's happened that makes
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:45.020
us feel overwhelmed or grab a bag of chips or
00:03:45.020 --> 00:03:49.020
you know like there's different ways that we
00:03:49.020 --> 00:03:52.219
do that and it could be that it's not even just
00:03:52.219 --> 00:03:55.699
food right there's there's other ways that we
00:03:55.699 --> 00:03:59.449
self -suit so Can you speak to what is going
00:03:59.449 --> 00:04:01.949
on there when we're like reaching for that thing
00:04:01.949 --> 00:04:06.030
to give us comfort? So I like to use the word
00:04:06.030 --> 00:04:11.330
buffering. I am from a lifetime of not understanding
00:04:11.330 --> 00:04:16.240
my own buffering and a lot of it. is the conditioning,
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:18.439
at least the way I was raised and I know many
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:20.160
people that I know were raised. It's kind of
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:23.600
a cultural thing to be validated for either getting
00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:26.040
good grades when you're a little kid or getting
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:28.300
the job done at home and doing your chores or
00:04:28.300 --> 00:04:31.740
finishing the food on your plate where food is
00:04:31.740 --> 00:04:34.819
programmed into our mind as a reward and especially
00:04:34.819 --> 00:04:39.959
with emphasis on sweets. So when I'm in over
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:42.959
my head and
Load full transcript
I'm exhausted and I'm just producing
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:47.019
and getting stuff done, in my mind on some level,
00:04:47.019 --> 00:04:48.800
and maybe it's an eight year old just saying,
00:04:48.939 --> 00:04:51.019
I just want something sweet because it's getting
00:04:51.019 --> 00:04:55.759
really hard. And the hardest part about that
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:59.699
is to realize that it's sabotaging the beautiful
00:04:59.699 --> 00:05:02.500
woman that's doing all this hard work in multiple
00:05:02.500 --> 00:05:06.699
ways. So part of what I've experienced and what
00:05:06.699 --> 00:05:10.860
I've learned is the deceptiveness of buffering
00:05:10.860 --> 00:05:15.279
with food because the cost is so high. Because
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:17.939
after that happens habitually for an ongoing
00:05:17.939 --> 00:05:20.959
amount of time maybe months years, maybe a decade
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:26.879
maybe a lifetime until we stop and realize that
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:29.120
We're actually contaminating another part of
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:32.399
our lives without realizing it and harming ourselves
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:34.740
on some level that we're not and not meaning
00:05:34.740 --> 00:05:39.000
to ever Yeah, but really coming out of unconsciousness
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:44.620
and realizing the choices and the cost Yeah so
00:05:44.620 --> 00:05:46.560
when you say like there's that eight -year -old
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:50.180
inside of you that wants a little candy or something
00:05:50.180 --> 00:05:56.259
to be comforted how do you suggest we we deal
00:05:56.259 --> 00:05:59.379
with how do you suggest we what do you suggest
00:05:59.379 --> 00:06:03.699
we do with her so the eight -year -old the ten
00:06:03.699 --> 00:06:05.639
-year -old the seventeen -year -old they're all
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:08.100
alive and well inside of each one of us beautiful
00:06:08.100 --> 00:06:13.639
individuals right and My experience is that when
00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:16.600
you plug into how incredibly valuable you are
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:23.139
and stay conscious with your amazing value, then
00:06:23.139 --> 00:06:25.980
strategize. We need to have a strategy. We need
00:06:25.980 --> 00:06:28.060
to have a tool belt. We need to have alternative
00:06:28.060 --> 00:06:31.379
behaviors available that will comfort us and
00:06:31.379 --> 00:06:33.740
soothe us, but not cause our pants to get tight
00:06:33.740 --> 00:06:37.680
and our clothes size to change. It takes the
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:42.240
willingness to be aware because Most problematic
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:45.019
eating is unconscious in my experience. It's
00:06:45.019 --> 00:06:48.339
just autopilot who cares I'm just in that space
00:06:48.339 --> 00:06:50.819
and I just want to check out give me something
00:06:50.819 --> 00:06:54.120
Pleasurable for my brain so I could just detach
00:06:54.120 --> 00:06:56.839
from the task at hand. That's just knocking me
00:06:56.839 --> 00:07:00.779
out So I really believe strongly in the critical
00:07:00.779 --> 00:07:06.220
nature of some positive productive Some kind
00:07:06.220 --> 00:07:09.399
of strategy some kind of tool belt that is available
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:12.100
for an easy and quick fix. There's even options
00:07:12.100 --> 00:07:14.740
to eat things that are good for us that can be
00:07:14.740 --> 00:07:17.040
quite satisfying that won't take us down that
00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:20.759
guilt road and chunky feeling road. Can you give
00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:26.699
us some examples for oh sure so you know I am
00:07:26.699 --> 00:07:29.899
a big proponent of I love first of all I love
00:07:29.899 --> 00:07:32.420
sweets but I've learned myself that if I have
00:07:32.420 --> 00:07:36.379
a beautiful nectarine or fresh grapes or watermelon
00:07:36.670 --> 00:07:39.589
It's just not anywhere near as damaging and it
00:07:39.589 --> 00:07:43.389
can be quite satisfying. But I have to, you know,
00:07:43.569 --> 00:07:46.329
have a chat with myself and over the years I
00:07:46.329 --> 00:07:51.329
have learned so much about foods and brain and
00:07:51.329 --> 00:07:53.310
how it affects my personality and how it affects
00:07:53.310 --> 00:07:55.670
your pancreas and then it leads to hormone imbalance
00:07:55.670 --> 00:07:58.490
and that's a whole other rabbit hole to the point
00:07:58.490 --> 00:08:01.290
now where I can't really do much of it anymore
00:08:01.290 --> 00:08:04.589
because I'm too aware of the price and I think
00:08:04.589 --> 00:08:07.160
the awareness Well, I'm sure of it. Awareness
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:12.560
is the first tool and the first key to managing
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:14.639
this and moving down a different path because
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:16.879
the unconscious thing and the autopilot thing
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:21.339
is very common, very easy and very sabotaging.
00:08:22.019 --> 00:08:26.439
So the first piece is recognizing that you are
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:29.680
in this unconscious pattern. Yeah. And that we
00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:31.819
just reach for something that feels good at the
00:08:31.819 --> 00:08:34.759
time and Part of it's our conditioning and part
00:08:34.759 --> 00:08:36.620
of it's our belief system too if we're still
00:08:36.620 --> 00:08:39.879
living in the belief that Not that it's never
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:42.159
gonna happen. Okay, so that's something I need
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:45.620
to say it's it's never gonna not happen It's
00:08:45.620 --> 00:08:48.360
gonna happen once in a while and in the times
00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:50.379
that it does happen I think it's really important
00:08:50.379 --> 00:08:53.100
to give ourselves permission to enjoy it and
00:08:53.100 --> 00:08:55.500
be conscious like I'm gonna eat these little
00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:57.360
pieces of English toffee and I'm gonna enjoy
00:08:57.360 --> 00:08:59.580
them and it's a brief encounter
and I'm gonna
00:08:59.580 --> 00:09:04.580
get right back on track but overall being aware
00:09:04.580 --> 00:09:08.899
of it and not eating more things ongoing because
00:09:08.899 --> 00:09:11.360
I don't know about a lot of other people but
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:13.980
I do know for myself and multiple women and clients
00:09:13.980 --> 00:09:17.320
I've spoken to in my life usually the guilt and
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.080
the shame around indulging in something super
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.559
carby and sugary leads to it something else a
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:24.980
little more sugary and carby and because I feel
00:09:24.980 --> 00:09:27.700
bad that I did it and you know I've got a lot
00:09:27.700 --> 00:09:30.899
of guilt around it so if I can set that aside
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:35.220
and allow myself time throughout my week, wherever,
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:37.899
maybe on the weekend, to have something special
00:09:37.899 --> 00:09:41.840
and enjoy it without all that drama, without
00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:44.059
all the guilt and the head trip, you know. And
00:09:44.059 --> 00:09:48.559
even if I slip because I'm not totally on track
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:51.879
all the time and triggerless if I get triggered,
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:55.620
even if I slip, the ticket is always forgiving
00:09:55.620 --> 00:09:58.659
yourself and getting back on track. That way
00:09:58.659 --> 00:10:01.710
there's not that rabbit hole of going down and
00:10:01.710 --> 00:10:05.289
having more of the same and then it gets worse
00:10:05.289 --> 00:10:09.509
from there. The slippery slope is spiral. Yes.
00:10:09.769 --> 00:10:14.049
Yeah. So you talk about being unstoppable in
00:10:14.049 --> 00:10:17.750
business and in life. So what are some of the
00:10:17.750 --> 00:10:24.629
ways that you teach women to reorganize and to
00:10:24.629 --> 00:10:28.110
strategize to being unstoppable even though we
00:10:28.110 --> 00:10:32.610
have all this stuff on us and you know entrepreneurship
00:10:32.610 --> 00:10:37.850
brings even more on top of that so once again
00:10:37.850 --> 00:10:41.350
it's it's a sitting down with yourself and making
00:10:41.350 --> 00:10:44.029
a decision that's something you really want and
00:10:44.029 --> 00:10:46.409
when you really want something bad you get it
00:10:46.409 --> 00:10:49.190
in your nervous system like close your eyes and
00:10:49.190 --> 00:10:53.070
see yourself because your brain doesn't know
00:10:53.070 --> 00:10:56.330
what to do with negatives Your brain does not
00:10:56.330 --> 00:10:58.250
know what to do with negatives. So if you keep
00:10:58.250 --> 00:11:00.309
saying, I'm this, I'm that, and I'm not that,
00:11:00.370 --> 00:11:02.389
and I'm not this, it's like, okay, let's just
00:11:02.389 --> 00:11:04.669
keep doing the same thing. It doesn't change.
00:11:05.110 --> 00:11:08.909
But if you can sit tight, close your eyes and
00:11:08.909 --> 00:11:12.750
see yourself just crushing it and being unstoppable
00:11:12.750 --> 00:11:16.750
and you want that and you see it, then when these
00:11:16.750 --> 00:11:20.330
moments come up, we can go right to that movie.
00:11:20.620 --> 00:11:23.759
That is the movie I want. That is the trip I'm
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:25.940
going on. That is the goal I want to attain.
00:11:26.100 --> 00:11:29.139
She's who I want to become. And when she's who
00:11:29.139 --> 00:11:33.159
I want to become, become so real and electric
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:36.240
in our mind and in our body, that whole thought
00:11:36.240 --> 00:11:41.080
process will dominate and renew the path. It's
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:43.440
when we stay in the old patterns, the old belief
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:47.059
systems and the old fears that we repeat them.
00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:49.440
Because it's the software. The software always
00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:52.590
wins. software always wins. And if we don't change
00:11:52.590 --> 00:11:56.769
it up here, chances are pretty darn slim that
00:11:56.769 --> 00:11:59.009
we won't change it anywhere else. The behavior.
00:11:59.889 --> 00:12:04.330
Yeah. Yeah. So we always end every episode with
00:12:04.330 --> 00:12:07.769
a little nugget. So if you were to share a nugget
00:12:07.769 --> 00:12:09.909
that you want us to take away from all of this,
00:12:09.990 --> 00:12:14.649
what would that be? I would want to say to you,
00:12:15.009 --> 00:12:17.830
dear woman, whoever you are and whoever's listening,
00:12:19.059 --> 00:12:23.720
You are amazing. You are beautiful. There is
00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:28.200
only one you. And you deserve to be healthy,
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:34.240
vibrant, focused, and successful. And we all
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:36.259
struggle with those internal beliefs. And if
00:12:36.259 --> 00:12:38.259
we have them, where did they come from? Let's
00:12:38.259 --> 00:12:39.940
knock them out of the park and stick with the
00:12:39.940 --> 00:12:42.120
ones that are gonna get us where we wanna go.
00:12:42.379 --> 00:12:44.779
But it's the truth. You are very valuable and
00:12:44.779 --> 00:12:47.200
you are very precious. And there's only one you.
00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:51.279
