Self-Protective Patterns: A Conversation with Erin Tusa-Thatcher ep . 82
Big emotions can be difficult to “deal with” – especially when you’re young! (amiright?)
Maybe it’s overwhelm, anxiety, fear, or anger.
Whatever the discomfort….your body goes into a state of fight/flight/freeze. And your sympathetic nervous system goes on high alert. 🚨
In this personal, and profound conversation, I chat with Erin Tusa-Thatcher, an Integrated Health & Strength Coach who specializes in weight loss, by focusing on behaviour patterns and root causes of wellness habits.
Here’s what you’ll hear about in this episode:
- The experience of being bullied as a child, and how Erin turned to food to cope
- Erin’s audition for Canadian Idol, and being told: “you’ve got the goods, but you don’t look the part.”
- Erin’s unhealthy drive to prove her worthiness by “getting fit”
- The experience of looking healthy, but not feeling healthy
- Why Erin decided to become a personal trainer, and her unique take on weight loss
- When habits become hurtful – and how to get out of the “pain state”
- Reassessing the “why” behind wellness, and the importance of creating new metrics to align with your values
- Goodbye comfort food, hello meditation, energy work, and hypnosis
- “I am an onion!” - get your t-shirt now!
- Why Erin decided to open a brick-and-mortar fitness studio in this online-obsessed age
- It’s not selfish to lead with your authentic desires, and to seek pleasure
