Hey Friend!
Welcome to another episode of The ODAAT Chat Podcast. I am so grateful you are joining me today! If you are new here, my name is Arlina and I’ll be host.
This is a podcast where my guests and I talk about how to recovery from alcoholism and addiction. I’m looking to uncover the causes and conditions of addiction, the lessons learned along the way, and the tools and practices which lead to long term recovery.
If you’d like more information about the podcast, past guests, or put a buck in the basket by making a donation, visit the website at odaatchat.com, and odaat is spelled “O D A A T”.
Every week I do a Sobriety Birthday Spotlight, so today, I’d like to give a shout out former guest Kevin F! Those of us who go to the daily 6am ODAAT meeting like to refer to Kevin as “The Mayor”. He’s always in service, he’s always welcoming and everybody loves him! He got sober on 1/2/12
If you know someone who would enjoy the Sobriety Birthday Spotlight, you can message me through the ODAAT Chat Facebook group.
Today my guest is Noelle Van Vlierbergen. She’s the Author of “Day by Day Book” and “The Sober Leap-Practical Wisdom to Create an Amazing Life Beyond Addiction”
But first, since everyone seems to be setting health goals this time of year, I have a great resource for you.
It is a dietary program called “Metabolic Balance”. It’s not shakes or pills, it’s a tailored meal planned based on what’s good for your specific body based on a blood test to restore your metabolism. When your metabolism is restored, inflammation is reduced, and people tend to lose a significant amount of weight!
So back in July, I took a blood test and had it analyzed to identify which foods are best for my specific body chemistry, and I’ve lost a total of 18 lbs! I lost the majority of the weight in the first 6 weeks. The meal plan that was developed for me answered the 3 big questions I always had: What to eat, how much and when. It takes all the guesswork out for me and taught me how to take of my body as it is now, which is very different from 10 years ago, if you know what i’m sayin…
My husband Bob has lost over 47 lbs and this was so life changing for him that he started his practice and is now working with a group on their health goals. There’s a new group starting Mid-January, and if you sign up by January 5th, you’ll receive $100 off. Just visit Mymetabolicdiet.com or message me through the ODAAT Chat Facebook page for more information.
Okay, so back to the intro. My guest today is Noelle Van Vlierbergen. Right off the bat I have to apologize for being so chatty in this interview. I think I had way too much coffee!
Anyway, she’s an amazing lady who has already written a book and a published a great recovery planer called the Day by Day book.
I was going to try to explain it, but her website says it best:
“This planner is the first ever guided planner created specifically for your recovery.
If bearing your soul on a blank page has never been your thing and logging productivity is a drag, you’ll love The Day by Daybook.
It’s a formulated and fun approach to celebrating progress, cultivating self awareness and creating a joy-filled life.”
Isn’t that cool? Who doesn’t want a joy filled life? What I really like is that it’s focused on solutions, and making forward progress. You can find it online at daybydaybook.com
Noel is a very kind and compassionate woman and I’m grateful she took the time to let us into her world. So with that, please enjoy this conversation, with Noel.
With gratitude,
Arlina
