Courage is the theme of this release of the First Ourselves Show, with co-hosts Margaret Cleveland and Karly Randolph-Pitman. It can be scary to leave behind comforting habits or patterns, whether it be with food or other aspects of our daily lives. What if we fail in following through on the change we envision? What if we’re criticized along the way? How do we act even while feeling vulnerable?

Hi Julia,
I’m so glad that this was helpful to you. Oh, I have had so many last suppers, too. I think we all have. Thank you for writing – this is exactly what we wanted the podcasts to do – to give you encouragement that you could take with you.
Best, Karly
Dear Margaret and Karly! Thank you for these two real inspiring radio shows! I put them on my ipod and I listen regularly to them. And every time I learn something new! I really loved the “last supper” example which I have undergone already so many times! Hope there will be more emissions!!
Cheers
Julia
