Amy & Kat give advice to a listener that emailed asking how to juggle things in life she’s not good at (yet!) like cleaning/organizing, finances, and physical health. Intern Adelyn teaches us about ‘tinned fish girls’ and Amy quizzes Kat to see if she has a ‘girl math brain’ (ex: if you’re paying someone back for dinner and you have money in your Venmo account, that dinner is free, or anything you buy with a gift card is free!! haha)

QUOTE:
“Our outer worlds invariably affect our inner worlds and vice versa.”
– Danielle Roeske, Psy.D

5 Mental Health Benefits of Cleaning:
- Sense of order and control
- Familiarity and consistency
- Released endorphins
- Improved focus
- Regulated emotions

OUTWEIGH: In this episode of Outweigh, Leanne addresses a common question from women who have moved past the acute struggles of their eating disorders and disordered eating: "What's next?". She explores how to create a health plan that protects your relationship with food and newfound freedom while also focusing on overall health...and emphasizes the importance of prioritizing mental and emotional health above all else.

Leanne also created a Top 10 list of practical 'filters' you can use to evaluate whether a plan or program is genuinely beneficial or potentially harmful in your healing journey.

You'll walk away from this episode super-clear on all the reasons why your previous plans may have failed you and how to avoid falling into the same traps. This episode is essential for anyone looking to move forward in their health journey with clarity and confidence--- whether they are still IN the midst of their healing journey or on the path beyond it.

In this episode of In The Vet’s Office, Abby Smyers (animal rescue advocate and wife to Dan Smyers of Dan & Shay) stops by with one of her four rescue pups, Macaroni. Abby shares how she first got involved with animal rescue and how it quickly became her life’s passion. Abby opens up about her dog Joy’s recent cancer diagnosis. Joy was diagnosed with sarcoma, a soft tissue cancer, after Abby discovered a mass near her tail while out for a walk. Dr. Josie was one of Abby’s first calls and helped build out the care team that has taken are of Joy in recent months. Abby & Dr. Josie go in depth about the journey from diagnosis to how Joy is doing currently. In the intro to Abby’s interview, Dr. Josie also sits down with her co-host, radio personality Shannon Ella, to dive into the Case of the Week – an owner that came in asking for a mammogram for her 10-month-old dog, which led to an interesting discovery! A listener calls in to ask for help preventing ear infections in his dog that loves the water and another caller asks Dr. Josie when she can start taking her puppy on runs. After the interview, Dr. Josie and Shannon wrap up the episode with PAW & ORDER where Dr. Josie details things she’d never do with her own pets including not keeping an eye out for ring worm on your pets that are highly contagious to humans.

OUTWEIGH: Have you ever gone to start a new plan or program, and on the surface you’re gung- ho — ready to take it by the reins, deeply committed, and hoping (praying!) that this time really IS different — that this will be ‘the thing’ that changes everything for you… but secretly in the back of your mind, you’re WAITING for it to fail?

Perhaps you’re even outright EXPECTING it to fail, because you know in your heart-of-hearts that even though the plan or the program itself might be different…you know deep down that YOU haven’t changed — that you haven’t gotten your mind, your head, your brain, and your heart aligned in a way that WOULD cause things to be different?

I see this happening ALL the time. Heck, it's exactly how I used to feel each time I started out some new plan or method that (eventually) I just STOPPED talking about it or telling anyone altogether. And in this episode of Outweigh we are going to talk about why this REALLY happens, how to earn back your own trust, and how to never become the "Girl Who Cried Wolf" ever again.

Do you ever ask yourself: “How can I serve today?” One of the simplest ways to get to your highest self (and out of ego) is to serve others. Leanne Ellington joins Amy for this chat and they each share how they have been selfish in the past (and sometimes still can be!) but they both now very much strive for and strongly align with this affirmation: “I am here to be truly helpful.” The desire to give (and not get) puts us in an awesome energetic state that leaves us feeling more full and in tune with who we truly are!

Amy shares 4 quotes about service that offer solid encouragement as you look for ways to serve others:

- “I start every day by wanting more for others than I do for myself. I think that is how God works, and that is how I think we have to work.” - Wayne Dyer

- “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” - Mahatma Gandhi

- “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.” - Muhammad Ali

- “Our prayers for others flow more easily than those for ourselves. This shows we are made to live by charity.” - C. S. Lewis
