  • Summary

  • Are you a Jesus loving woman who over exercises and deprives herself of food, desperately trying to obtain a goal weight on the scale? And yet, at the same time, you strive to be a healthy version of yourself by eating well and feeling fit? Hi, I'm Andrea, and I was running on this same hamster wheel for over 20 years. My toxic body image and eating disorder stole my joy and self-respect. Thankfully, God was always with me, fighting my battles and blessing me with the grit to reclaim my life. I'm off the hamster wheel, but I see you, still stuck in the cage and I want to help free you, too. Journey with me every week. I'll share personal stories, tools, mindset shifts and the practical steps I took to heal my unhealthy relationship with food and exercise. I don't believe food and exercise are the problems. I believe they're part of the solution. Instead, I'll teach you how your mindset and faith are the keys to healing. Get ready to navigate your newfound path to healing. Get ready to reclaim your self worth. Get ready to realign with your God-given identity. For in this identity is where you find true wellness and healing. When you are well, your gifts shine into the world. Shine on babe! Let's do this. I'm Andrea Carow and this is Good Vanilla.

  • What Is An Eating Disorder? A Conversation Between A Mother and Daughter

    What Is An Eating Disorder? A Conversation Between A Mother and Daughter
    Oct 4 2023

    Let's normalize talking about tough topics with our daughters. They deserve to have awareness about mental health conditions like eating disorders. Our girls need to have the tools to spot trouble brewing in their own minds and the minds of their friends. I love this conversation I had with my 9 year old daughter, Ava, because it proves such conversations don't have to be miserable. The serious can be seriously fun. See you inside the episode!

  • The Mental Health Conversation You Need To Hear

    The Mental Health Conversation You Need To Hear
    Sep 13 2023

    I love how honest this conversation is! Brittni Clarkson, host of Meant To Bloom podcast and I don’t hold back sharing so much of what we’ve learned over the years of our personal mental health journeys. Mental health is arguably the most important aspect of health. So we dove deep into topics such as but not limited to:

    • A gratitude practice that actually works

    • Obsession with self-development

    • The power of voicing your thoughts out loud

    • Hitting rock bottom

    • How good can come out of what feels bad

    • Running with bears and big bowls of spaghetti (haha)

    • It’s normal to feel like you’re going crazy

    • What’s “enough” for mental health

    • Be curious to practice what works for you

    • You are never the same person facing the same battle

    • Things don’t have to be perfect to be good

     

    There are too many bits of wisdom to count! Grab an iced latte and your notebook before you press play. Brittni and I can’t wait to see you inside the episode :)

     

    p.s. Being totally transparent and authentic with you is important to me. For this reason you will hear real mompreneur life toward the end of the episode when my two lovely daughters pop into the episode. I purposely chose not to edit them out because I felt it would gloss over the true message of this episode. Enjoy :)

  • How To Use Faith As A Weapon Against An Eating Disorder

    How To Use Faith As A Weapon Against An Eating Disorder
    Jul 19 2023

    Faith isn’t talked about enough in the recovery space. This is why I’m here, friend. To spread this message and help you open your heart so God has access to your heart. You don’t need to hide any shame and guilt from him. Because you are worthy. Ephesians chapter 6 is a powerhouse of a chapter to use to fight for your life. You are worth it friend! Do not give up. Listen to this episode to get your grit on. Get tenacious. Get rowdy against an eating disorder. This episode will help you take a stand against self-loathing, shame, guilt and the freakin’ devil itself!
