Episode 119: #119 Treating Ourselves Like a Friend Rather than a Foe

Have you ever taken a selfie? Of your butt?

That’s just what Leeana Tankersley, author of Breathing Room, did so of course, that’s the first thing that Kathi and Erin ask her about. Why did she take a picture of her butt and how did she live to tell about it?

Kathi and Erin fell in love with Leeana from the first moments of the interview. Leeana gets real. Fast. (And you know how we love that around here.) She talks about how to lovingly come alongside ourselves as a good friend would, and be compassionate when we need it the most.

Leeana talks about:

• How Pinterest is changing how we feel about ourselves, and others.

• How the 12-step program Emotions Anonymous changed her life.

• How as moms we can give ourselves permission to “begin again” with our kids.
