I had the pleasure of chatting with Jaimee Krawitz, Registered Counsellor and Founder & CEO of the Hide N Seek Foundation. Jaimee is doing such important work in the world. The Hide N Seek Foundation is a not for profit organisation dedicated to changing the conversation around eating disorders. The vision of the Hide N Seek Foundation: A world where every young Australian living with an eating disorder receives the understanding, support, and resources they need throughout a hopeful journey of recovery.

Jaimee is dedicated to empowering others, promoting mental wellbeing and advocating for changes in the way society approaches eating disorders. Through Hide N Seek, she seeks to create an open conversation around eating disorders, foster awareness and provide essential resources and support to those caring for individuals with eating disorders.

I was blown away by what Jaimee does. This area has a huge place in my heart from my own personal experience and I knew that I always wanted to support this cause in any way I can and have more conversations around this topic.

Eating Disorders can be an extremely isolating experience, not only for the person suffering but for family members, partners and friends of those suffering, and thats why the work of the Hide n Seek Foundation is so important.

This conversation will be great for anyone who is caring for / supporting / or concerned about a loved one whom is navigating an eating disorder.

Today we spoke about:

- Jaimee's journey to becoming a Registered Councillor and creating Hide N Seek Foundation

- What the Hide N Seek Foundation does

- Jaimee's own experience with an eating disorder

- The importance of supportive conversations around eating disorders

- How to navigate the conversations with someone you are concerned about

- The importance of creating a safe environment

- Importance statistics about the rise of eating disorders in our recent times

- Inspiring hope for those who are navigating an eating disorder

- The goals of the Hide n Seek Foundation

and so much more...

Today I have a special guest Eddie Nelson, Breathwork Coach and Pilates Instructor and Founder of the Bred Method.

I had this chat with beautiful Eddie at her home in Sydney and I just loved it so much. I have so much love for Eddie. She is real and oozes authenticity. What you see is what you get which I deeply respect. We had a hearty chat and Eddie opens up about her journey with mental health and what led her to breath work which is now what she does full time in the world in her business Bred (get your daily bred)

Today we chat about:

- The moment she decided to do her breathwork training and the journey to creating Bred

- The importance of alignment and flow

- It’s allowed to be easy

- The benefits of breathwork

- The body keeps a score, the importance of giving our bodies the chance to feel and release in a safe environment

- The shifts that come when we release stored emotions and junk in the body

- The importance of dropping out of your head and facing what’s really underneath it all, in the truth of the body

- Our subconscious mind

- Her relationship with her body and self worth, how she shifted from loathing her body to loving and appreciating her physical body

- When you do the inner work and get into your body & release the stored emotion, we free up space, we aren’t as triggered, this is how we really access that inner beauty & glow that then translates to our outer beauty

- As Eddie says...if we don’t deal with it, it will show up externally in damaging ways

- Breathwork is a natural beauty hack..Eddie speaks about the physical shifts she experienced from breathwork

- How she navigated comparison on her journey and how she stays in her own lane. The importance of monitoring what you consume

- The importance of gratitude

- Her definition of beautiful

- What’s coming up from Eddie, her next event and what’s in store for Bred…
