Danielle Daem, Sugar Addiction Expert & Somatic Embodiment Coach Introduce yourself! Please tell us about you and your life, so we can get to know you better. Hey, I'm Dani, Sugar Freedom Expert and Somatic Embodiment Coach. I live on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada with my husband and two kitties, and I love everything outdoors. Anything from camping to backcountry hiking, gardening, and even yard work. If it involves being outside, count me in. You may be surprised to hear that I didn't always live and eat healthy. My journey to health actually started only nine years ago after waking up to the dangers of processed food on my current and future health. At this time I began diving deep into my own healing path with sugar and myself. Fast forward to today and I’m so honoured and grateful to get to work with women to help them find their voice, heal their addictive patterns and learn to love themselves again. What inspired you to become a Sugar Freedom Expert, Breathwork Facilitator, and Somatic Embodiment Coach, and how do you integrate these different modalities into your approach to helping women heal their relationship with sugar? My path and journey to working in this way with my clients has unfolded through my own struggles with sugar and food over the last 9 years. Well, let’s be honest, my addiction to sugar and dysfunctional relationship with food started at a very young age. The more I dive deep into uncovering the root causes that kept me turning to food and hating myself for it, the more I’ve been able to liberate myself from the shackles of these unhealthy patterns. Every year I am continually inspired to dive into deeper and deeper layers of what is really at the root of our addictive patterns with food and our guilt and shame that we carry as women around food. Which, let's face it, is really just a reflection of how we see ourselves. After healing my addictive patterns with food and learning how to overcome the limiting beliefs and traumas that kept me in these unhealthy patterns, I became excited and passionate about supporting other women walking this path in a way that wasn’t as difficult, challenging, lonely, and exhausting as it was for me. As I’ve added more tools to my skill set and begun bringing somatic practices like breathwork, guided journeys and deep emotional processing work, I’ve noticed the massive shift and transformation in my clients beyond what my old way of coaching would do. It’s allowed the women in my programs to finally break through old blocks and feel at peace with themselves, and with food, from the inside out. These somatic based tools are really a backbone of understanding that our relationship with food and sugar is ultimately just a reflection of our relationship with ourselves. And by understanding this we can finally do the deep inner work that is needed to create lasting peace and freedom from within. How do you address the root causes of sugar dependency in your coaching practice, particularly in terms of somatic healing and trauma-informed approaches? My practice focuses very deeply on supporting women in reconnecting to their body. Because as I mentioned earlier, our relationship with food is simply a reflection of what is lying under the surface within our body, within the wisdom of our body. And more specifically within our nervous system and the old energetic beliefs that were hard wired in our childhood. Whether you were told it wasn’t OK to express emotions or you were told to keep quiet and be a good girl, these old beliefs are still controlling you today. And more likely than not they are preventing you from feeling safe in your body and knowing how to handle life when it gets hard. So perhaps you turn to a vice (maybe sugar?) to “feel better” and to escape or numb out what pain lies below. When we look at the actual addictive patterns that lie in all of us, we can begin to stem these back to trauma, back to our early childhood experiences, and back to the deep dysregulation that lies in all of our nervous systems. This is the root of addiction and the path out. As the host of the "Beyond Sugar Freedom Podcast," what topics do you explore, and what do you hope listeners gain from tuning in to your show? On the Beyond Sugar Freedom podcast, we dive into a whole holistic variety of topics from sugar addiction to mental health, to psychedelics, emotional health, hormones, mindset tricks and emotional eating. Ultimately every topic that we bring to the show is rooted in the understanding that this deep healing is all about working with the inner wounds that are at the root of our unhealthy patterns with food. Listeners of the show often share that they come away with a new sense of awareness and empowerment as to how much they actually have power over when choosing to heal their relationship with food. It gives them hope and clear steps to move forward. In your experience, what are some common misconceptions or challenges that women face when trying to reclaim control from sugar addiction? There are so many misconceptions and more specifically mistakes that I see so many women making as they attempt to break free from the control of sugar cravings. The first misconception that I want to clear up for everyone right now is that maple syrup and agave are in fact sugar. It still blows my mind that the general population believes that there is such a thing as “healthy” sugar. They have been tricked to think things like honey, coconut sugar and agave are not actually sugar. Many people believe this, but it's simply not true. When we look at the actual impact of simple sugars in our body, we can clearly see that even maple syrup, honey and any other “natural” sugar is in fact still sugar. It’s still made up of a combination of simple refined sugars glucose and fructose and when you ingest them you get a massive blood sugar spike. Don’t be fooled just because a sugar is natural doesn’t mean it doesn’t affect your body and blood sugar health! The second biggest misconception I see is people believe that sugar addiction and cravings are just a physical and brain addiction problem. Yes, physical addiction is a very real part of our experience with these heavily processed foods, but they are not the root of addiction. They are an amplifier of an addictive pattern that already existed. For every woman I’ve ever worked with, it’s clear that there's a deeper root behind our cravings for junk food. It is the actual emotional, energetic, and spiritual cravings that keep us using these substances to cope and escape when life gets hard. This is why anyone who has ever tried to give up sugar for 30 or 90 days inevitably falls back into the old patterns/ways after a few months – even if they’re feeling amazing and on top of the world. Those “self-sabotaging” patterns are really just deep wounds we all carry that keep us reaching for something to make us feel better. Getting off sugar is not about just willpowering yourself long enough to clean up your body and feel great physically. It’s much more a journey of self discovery and healing our past in a way we can finally step forward in a loving and empowered way. Why is sugar addiction becoming a bigger problem than ever before? There are so many reasons that sugar struggles are becoming a much bigger problem every single year. For starters, sugar is hiding in more foods than we can even imagine. Food manufacturers now have hundreds of different names and combinations of molecules that they hide in our foods, let alone all of the chemicals, processed seed oils that are also being added. So the fact that we don't even know we're overdosing on sugar is a really, really big problem. The billion dollar food industry has tricked us with fancy marketing tactics to lean on their heavily processed and chemical laden foods thinking they are “healthy” or we “deserve” them. Another piece here that is important to honor is that we now live in a world that is becoming more and more stressful, especially for women taking on more and more, never resting, never honoring their bodies. Continuing this cycle of nervous system dysregulation is keeping our bodies chronically stressed and exhausted. We’re in these cycles that keep us hidden from our true selves and miserable. So no wonder we want to binge and cope with sugar! And another big piece to notice is that we are now living in a world where we have less support and community than we ever had before. This is a really big component when we understand the root cause and the emotional needs we have of feeling supported, belonging and feeling like we have people we can lean on and talk to when life gets hard. We just don’t have that anymore. We have this false sense of support and a false sense of community that isn't real. This void is something that we are filling now more than ever with sugar and with food or any other addictive substance. Connection and true community are meant to support us emotionally and physically when life gets hard. Instead we’re now in a world where we’re all lonely and miserable on our own when we go through difficult life ups and downs. So we turn to junk in an attempt to get comfort and support. What’s the best advice you’d give to someone just getting started on their sugar journey? The first thing is the reminder that you are not broken. There are so many women out there walking around believing that it’s their fault they can’t seem to get off sugar or kick the processed food addiction. There’s nothing wrong with you. You are not a failure. The truth is we’re all up against a billion dollar industry that strategically wants you to be addicted to sugar. So there is a lot at play here that is really fighting against you. The fact that big companies have studied the exact combinations of molecules to hit your dopamine centers at the right amount and overwhelm your taste buds… should be illegal! Now even understanding it’s not your fault that you’ve been overconsuming sugar since childhood, it IS your responsibility to decide to do something about it. To learn how to make better choices and to arm yourself with the right information. A great place to start on your sugar freedom journey is by beginning to be aware of where sugar is hiding in your life. Awareness is always step number one. Where is sugar hiding in your house? Where is it sneaking into your diet where you don't even know? You’ll be surprised once you start label reading and learning what products actually have sneaky sugar in them. Next up, start bringing awareness to how you feel before you eat anything. This is a powerful trick to help you connect the dots between your emotional and mental cravings as opposed to actual hunger cues. This easy practice also helps bring deep awareness to your unique sugar triggers so you can start to find new tools to get what you’re really craving. Can you share any resources or tools that were particularly helpful to you during your journey to overcoming sugar addiction? Over the last nine years, I have been on a deep dive into my own inner healing, personal growth and nutrition. If I were to pull out the most powerful tools for me I’d have to say that the best investments have always been the ones I made in coaching, somatic therapy and trainings. The other modalities that have been massively beneficial in helping me heal my trauma and work with my nervous system are psychedelic therapy and conscious connected breathwork. These practices are something I’m deeply passionate about and have seen first hand the lasting life changing effects of these powerful modalities. Something that has also been really important in my journey is surrounding myself with healthy friends and people who support me in my health and in my healing. Being around people that lift me up and help make me a better version of myself every day has been vital to my ongoing success. I didn’t always have this in my life and actually had to shift social circles when I started becoming a more authentic and healthy version of myself. It’s been such a rewarding adventure! If you could change one thing about your industry, what would it be and why? There are so many things I would love to change about our food industry in general, but thinking specifically of the sugar addiction support industry and the coaching that is out there, I would really love it if everybody could understand this root cause approach and stop focusing just on the food part of the journey. I wish people would stop only looking at what to eat and begin actually understanding that our relationship with food is a mirror of our relationship with ourselves. That we must start at ground zero in the inner work and healing asking WHY we eat what we eat first. Looking ahead, what are your goals and aspirations for the future of your coaching practice and podcast, and how do you plan to continue making an impact in the lives of women seeking to break free from sugar dependency? I have so many exciting plans for the future. Over the next few I’ll be buying and building up my own homestead where I’ll host retreats, bring women together, raise children and continue connecting with the land and where my food comes from. I look forward to continuing to find ways to bring women together in community to reconnect to each other and themselves in deep and meaningful ways. I will be continuing to expand my online programs and offerings so I can reach even more women who need this deep support through live talks, in person events, and even more episodes on the podcast. I can’t wait to see what the next few days has in store for me and the women I support! Read more from Danielle Daem

Written by Dain Dunston, Author, Speaker, Teacher, Coach Dain Dunston is a master coach who focuses on radical self-awareness for leaders. An award-winning author and speaker, he is the founding partner of Reservoir LLC, a consulting company with deep resources for leaders. There is a beautiful valley in the hills outside of Austin, Texas, where the local Watershed Association has been fighting to prevent rampant over-pumping of groundwater in what is one of the three fastest growing counties in the United States. We're fighting old laws and old attitudes. We're fighting big money. And we're having some very important wins. The Association had been instrumental over more than three decades in helping protect water resources in central Texas and, in particular, seven sacred springs that supplied the indigenous people of the region for more than 15,000 years. But in the last few decades, development and over-pumping have brought local aquifers down to dangerously low levels, so low that in two recent droughts local wells began to dry up. So the groundwater organization had been focused on stopping the drilling. But that’s not enough. We need solutions for the future that are based on better thinking. What would it look like if we redesigned the way we use water in our homes, in our businesses, in our towns and cities. What could we do to build a future where we have enough clean fresh water for our needs, both human and planetary? The science fiction model That’s what we at Reservoir, our coaching and advisory company, call Thinking Short and Long. We have to deal with what’s in front of us: in this case, that people in the valley aren’t aware of what’s happening to their watershed and what it means for their future. Thinking short is how we work on solving today’s problem. Thinking long, however, is imagining ways of dealing with our resources that few of us have had to think of before. It focuses on an almost science-fiction model of designing the future. The key is to think both how to stop the old ways and also how to start the new ways of living – and thriving – with less. And we’re seeing that happening today in clean air action, in redesigning resources, in groundwater, in all the ways we can provide for what humanity needs by using less and finding that less can actually be all we need and more. Interested in learning how your organization can learn to Think Short and Long? Reach out to me here. The future is already here Here’s just one example: While working to get local businesses and residents to use less water, the Watershed Association and the local water conservation agency convinced the school district to build an elementary school using what's called the One Water plan, in which 90% of the school’s water needs come from rainwater and recycling. It's been so successful, that they are now working on a hillside housing development that will use One Water for a neighborhood of 80 new homes , where rain would provide most of the water, with supplemental needs supplied by the local water company. Greywater and waste water will be used for watering lawns and flushing toilets. And waste water from toilets is treated onsite to provide safe, nutrient-rich irrigation for landscaping. If constructed, this may be the first such subdivision in the United States. And thinking farther ahead, they may soon bring together a group of connected subdivisions as a new kind of ‘One Water’ township that uses vastly less water than any other community in the developed world and serves as a blueprint for the future. The cyberpunk author William Gibson once said, “The future is already here. It’s just not evenly distributed.” So Thinking Short and Long has us working on imagining future states and then looking around to see where we might find existing versions of those futures. A clockwork future Since 2013, we’ve worked with Ocean Exchange, an organization that invites innovators from all over the world to present climate and ocean sustainability solutions at their annual conference in Florida. Picking from hundreds of submissions, they select 20 or more new technologies to compete for three $100,000 prizes. The first year I went, I walked into a room where tables were set up for finalists to display their solutions. There was only one team there, Mairi and Martin Wickett from England. I said hello and then looked at what they had. It looked like some kind of Victorian clockwork device but when they showed what it did, I was astonished: it gathers energy from motion and converts it into electricity. It is called WITT and it was so elegant that even though I hadn’t seen any of the other solutions, I knew it would win the prize and it did. And today these devices are used to provide electricity to offshore buoys in ports. I had seen the future and it was brilliant. When I was starting out in business, I had a mentor named Carl Cimino who ran a car dealership in Santa Fe, New Mexico. One day, when I mentioned my concerns about our environmental future, he told me he wasn’t worried. “We had the intelligence to create the things that caused the problem,” he said. “And I bet we will have the intelligence to create the things to solve it.” At the time, I wasn’t sure he was right, but now I know he was. Because I’m seeing that intelligence in play everywhere I look. Whatever problems you’re trying to solve, from the future of the workplace to the future of your business, Reservoir offers deep resources to help you. Make those resources yours and be the reservoir for your team and your dream. Reach out to me here and let’s put our heads together.

Written by Dr Mercy Maclean, Practitioner Chartered Health Psychologist Dr Mercy Maclean is a Practitioner Chartered Health Psychologist registered with The Health and Care Professional Council (HCPC), an Associate Fellow of The British Psychological Society (AFBPsS), and a full member of the Division of Health Psychology at The British Psychological Society (BPS). Dr. Mercy Maclean emphasises the importance of addressing the pervasive silence that surrounds mental health issues among men. As a society, we must be resolute in our determination to confront the core of this challenge, recognising that it is a difficult journey. We must prioritise the pervasive silence around men's mental well-being and refuse to allow it to be disregarded. We must continue to strive to empower men to break free from the pervasive silence associated with a lack of seeking help for mental health. Until the pervasive silence surrounding men's mental health is eradicated, we cannot afford to rest. Addressing the pervasive silence is poised to present an auspicious genesis of veracity. It will facilitate an ingress to a realm where pervasive silence is no longer a manifestation of strong will or a dialect of suffering. Dr. Mercy Maclean posits that these veracities are not merely observances but have been reported by years of research, poignant accounts, and efficacious tactics that have been proven to combat the silent epidemic of mental health challenges among men. A world where men are no longer compelled to conceal their pervasive silence, where the phrase "man up" is replaced by "speak up," is a world to be envisioned. Imagine a society where mental health is not a source of embarrassment but a catalyst for solidarity, where every man is conscious that he is not alone in his struggle. A call to action: The empowerment of solidarity to help reshape men's mental health Dr. Mercy Maclean asserts that men must be encouraged to unite and initiate conversations as allies rather than challengers, a highly efficacious approach to empowering solidarity. The tactic of empowerment of solidarity proves vital in various settings and helps reshape how men view mental health issues. Dr Mercy Maclean proposes a call to action to build solidarity, where empathy is used as a guide to initiating conversations. Using empathy will reshape how men view mental health issues with an open heart. Remember, empathy isn't about finding solutions; it's about offering space, a space where fears and hopes can coexist, where solidarity is met with support, not judgment. This call to action is not just the empowerment of solidarity to help reshape how men view mental health issues; it's the beginning of a movement. A movement that we must all be a part of. Your role? It's significant. Your impact? It's boundless. The journey? It starts now. Together, let's reshape the narrative of empowerment and solidarity around men's mental health. Every man deserves to live in a world where seeking help is heralded as the ultimate act of bravery. Will you join me in this mission? Will you be the voice that speaks up, the hand that reaches out, and the heart that understands? It's time to lift the weight of men's mental health, bring the struggles into the light, and begin a dialogue that can change lives. These words form the crux of our exploration. Each carries weight, a gravity pulling at the fabric of empowerment and solidarity. But what do they genuinely signify? And how do they sculpt the world around us, moulding perceptions and behaviours in seen and unseen ways? Let's make the invisible visible. Together, says Dr. Mercy Maclean Read more from Dr Mercy Maclean Dr Mercy Maclean, Practitioner Chartered Health Psychologist Dr Mercy Maclean is a Practitioner Chartered Health Psychologist registered with The Health and Care Professional Council (HCPC), an Associate Fellow of The British Psychological Society (AFBPsS), and a full member of the Division of Health Psychology at The British Psychological Society (BPS).
