This episode is totally different than any episode I've done before. This week, I'm having a coaching conversation with Erin Washington, host of the ThErinpy with Erin Washington podcast. This is the first conversation I've ever had with Erin: no goal setting, no background to coach from, just 3,2,1, GO!
We dive into Erin's journey in building resilience and self-worth while also digging into her past struggles with body image, bulimia and anorexia. From being a D1 soccer player to a successful philanthropist, mom, and podcaster, Erin opens up about her need for external validation and measuring self-worth in how much she checks off her to-do list.
Discover how Erin's experiences led her to empower teenage girls to have body positivity through the Blue Butterfly Foundation, offering hope and healing to those who need it most.
Erin and I go deep into the emotional impact of seeking approval from others, talking about the pressure and expectations of being the oldest daughter, and ask and answering tough questions about her value outside of what she is doing.
This conversation offers tons of valuable insights into embracing who you are beyond your accomplishments and gives you a quick snapshot of what a coaching session might look like for you.
