* Hi world, it’s me, Poppy* 🐶 PUPPY UPDATES!

* Hi world, it’s me, Poppy* 🐶

PUPPY UPDATES!!! Thank you all who sent me DMs and kind messages when I was ranting about my pup on the podcast (lololz). Just wanted to give a quick update:

Poppy is now 8 months old and it HAS gotten better (but lawd jesus she’s still a handful). I did all of your potty training suggestions and to my surprise, it WORKED. Until this week, she hasn't peed in the house for 2 months. HOWEVER, she's in heat this week and has peed inside 4x in the past 3 days. I'm guessing being in heat has something to do with it?!? She's actually getting spayed next week.

Sidenote she does have to go outside to go potty 5x a day (7am, 12pm, 5pm, 6:50pm, 10pm....ish). Is that normal at 8 months for a small dog (Maltese/shihtzu)???

Also this girl got more friends than me. I take her to the dog park twice a day and she's so sociable and friendly with other dogs (which is SUCH a contrast from when I would first take her and she would runnnnn in the other direction any time she saw a dog).

She still has issues with excessive nipping and doesn't go in her crate other than to sleep at night (and yes, i've tried everything). Can't wait until this training facility around the corner opens up post COVID so I can get some professional help for those issues.

All in all, i'm so happy that we got her. I definitely have no idea how I would have gotten through quarantine without her. 😭

For all of you dog owners, did you also want to get a SECOND pup after you fell in love with the first?!? 🤔🤗

Serious question: Team syrup or team whipped cream

Serious question: Team syrup or team whipped cream!?!?! (me: whipped cream all the way)

I made these @simplemills pumpkin pancakes with my 7-year old niece and she legit said they were the best pancakes she’s ever had (noting that they were better than buttermilk, which is a STRONG STATEMENT).

We had them for breakfast AND for lunch because….did I say pumpkin pancakes?

The best part is they are quick enough for WEEKDAYS. Only took about 5 minutes from start to finish. Mix all ingredients in a bowl (pancake mix, water, eggs, and oil), then blend and cook over medium heat for 90 seconds on each side. Order yours today at simplemills.com!

BTW I topped with whipped cream and walnuts to add some extra oomph, but they would also be good topped with yogurt and berries.

Curious: what are your favorite pancake toppings?

There’s this idea, especially among people of co

There’s this idea, especially among people of color, that eating disorders do not affect us and is an affluent skinny, white girl issue. Aside from not being true, this type of thinking is dangerous and harmful to people of color living with an eating disorder.

It creates additional barriers to recovery, and erases the experiences of people who don’t see themselves in that stereotype. Today we’ll be unpacking this with Dr. Marcella Raimondo, a psychologist specializing in social justice and eating disorders.

In This Episode We’ll Cover:
👉🏽How Marcella got into this work and her lived experience with an eating disorder (ED)
👉🏽The prevalence of eating disorders within POC communities
👉🏽How poverty and/or immigration can create unique challenges for people with eating disorders
👉🏽How to incorporate cultural competence when working with people that have ED’s
👉🏽Helpful things you can do if you think a loved one has a ED + MORE!
