What are you truly hungry for?

This is the question Rachel Cole asks everyone she works with. In the answering, secrets are revealed and magic happens.

It’s a brilliant question.

Sure it can be about food and you can ask it of yourself standing in front of the refrigerator, wondering what to throw together for dinner.

It can also be about so much more.

I know I’ve often found myself staring into the pantry when I realized my hunger wasn’t about food at all. It was for comfort, or rest, or freedom, or love, or the time and space to fall apart.

In this podcast, Rachel and I talk about intuitive eating, why she believes dieting is a violent act, how to savor your life and what it means to be a well-fed woman.

P.S. Next week’s show is a special one (and a short one) inspired by a question from a wonderful podcast listener and Facebook friend who asked about ways to hold on to the light, to joy, to hope, when the world around seems so dark. I hope you’ll join me for it and that you’ll send me your questions to answer here or on the show. I always love hearing from you.

Oh goodness. The week got away from me. But I want to make sure you know what’s happening on the podcast because this show was so darned fun.

The word “magic” means different things to different people and I wanted to spend some time talking with a practitioner of magic, or as Bri calls herself, a Sacred Artist.

I’m not talking about the sleight of hand magic that illusionists perform (though that’s impressive in it’s own right). This show is about folk magic – the magic that stems from our ancestors in various different traditions. In just an hour it’s tough to cover such a huge topic, but Bri brings a grounded wisdom to the conversation that I love. Her way of making magic in the world feels empowering and, well, sacred.

We talk about kind vs. harsh magic, ritual and ceremony. Bri also shares her brilliant way of interpreting dreams.

I’d love to hear what you think either in the comments below or on Facebook.
