Bleep Bulimia Episode #131 with Hilary Momberger Powers Motivational Speaker, Life Coach, Author on Bulimia Recovery

Send us Fan MailHilary Momberger Powers wants to send a message to this audience.  Recovered bulimic, but more so not leading with your wounds as a motivational speaker, life coach, and author.Hilary's mother was an anorexic, alcoholic, and drop-dead good-looking, and a Jackie Gleason girl.Now, with that being said, the daughter of the "Jackie Gleason Show" had to deal with this "having to give up her career for her children".And that her mother told her that she would never be as beautiful as her?  How could you not feel not good enough?  As the voice of Sally on Peanuts, she's living her trauma with the reptilian brain and has become a people pleaser.  From that, she became the bad girl.What a compelling story!  Some people think it is a good thing that parents want to get their children into show business with their connections.  Hilary says she loves her Mom, even after living in a foster home.  Listen to her words...Beautiful and open woman with her story and I am honoured to have had her on my Podcast because I could relate in so many ways about the people pleasing, the lies and the power and the people pleasing.  I didn't run away from home; my parents were not my reason. However, many stories on my Podcast, that's where it goes.  My issue was society, and back then our social media was not Instagram, or FB or... it was magazines... Cutouts on the fridge to be the Twiggy that her mother grew up with, that she has to reset what her mother couldn't.Bulimiaisms.  Love that word.  That is something recovered bulimics need to be aware of.  What activates?  Old coping mechanism.  Hilary, your story speaks volumes!  I loved relating to someone who knew at least some of what I went through, and you sharing your story!!  I feel you, and thank you.  I was honoured to have you on my Podcast.And finally, I love that you spoke about your senses. Very interesting.Hugs to you.  I aligned with you, and I hope my listeners do too.Find Hilary at www.hilarypowers.com, and she is on IG and LinkedInAnd check out her new book Peanuts to Percoset.  We have all had dark times.  I know for me as for Hilary, asking for help was the best solution.If you are in a spot where you are feeling well, remember you can become the best version of yourself.BE A GUEST/FIND A GUEST Start for Free!PODMATCH is innovative, provides easy communication and dashboard scheduling!
