Check out the answers to these important questions I received following my interview with Dr. Kyrin Dunston where we discussed Comeback: How An Overweight Doctor Restored Her Health And You Can Too.
- Dr. Kyrin shares how an accident pulled her out of her insanely busy life -- how can you change your life and slow down without dropping the ball and making sure you take care of your commitments?
- Dr. Kyrin talks about the a-ha moments... How do I recognize when I'm having an a-ha moment? What should I listen to, and what should I ignore?
- What if I don’t trust the “universe” to tell me “the way”? I feel like if I don’t direct and control my life, the things I want won’t happen.
- Dr. Kyrin said that for many women, fat is a form of protection. I really want to explore this because I’ve recently gained ten pounds and I can’t seem to lose it despite all my efforts. How can I figure out what my body is trying to protect me from so I can get down to the root of the issue?
- I love Dr. Kyrin’s advice about acting and feeling as if I’m already at my goal so that I’m motivated by positive thoughts rather than held back by negativity. But with something like losing weight, I feel like it’s hard to pretend I’m already thinner when I can visibly see that I’m not and physically can’t fit into my pants. Any tips to overcome that?

Check out the answers to these important questions I received following my interview with JJ Flizanes where we discussed Wholeness: How To Be The Love You're Looking For In The World.
- Are there times when, instead of just loving myself, it would actually be better for me in the long run to be harder on myself?
- A long time ago, I did something regretful to deeply hurt someone I love. That person still refuses to forgive me, and therefore I cannot forgive myself. How do I love myself again?
- Cynthia, what do you think about the saying, "That's just life"?
- The saying “You’re the creator of your own reality” makes total sense, but as much as I try to live with purpose, self-love and kindness, the reality I experience is not the reality I want because of hurdles and adversities that are beyond my control. What are some mental shifts or exercises I can start working on to truly trust the process of life?

Check out the answers to these important questions I received following my interview with Dr. Shannon Chavez where we discussed Sexuality: How To Let Go Of Shame And Embrace Pleasure.
- A lot of my shame around sex comes from thinking I'm not meeting my partner’s expectations. But the truth is, I have no idea what they are. We haven't ever really talked about it. Do you have any suggestions for how to start a good conversation around this on our own (vs. going to a 3rd-party therapist since I'm not sure we're there yet)?
- I’m all for being open about sex—rather than hiding it and treating it like it’s a shameful act. But still, even in social circles with friends, it’s sometimes considered wildly inappropriate to talk about your sex life or sexuality. People judge you. How do you know where to draw the line? Should a line even be drawn?
- Dr. Shannon shared that one exercise she encourages her clients to do is to look at themselves in the mirror, naked. I could see how that could be empowering for some, but for me it makes me feel way more insecure. Once and for all I’d like to stop thinking about my flaws during sex, but how?
