    Nicole Graev Lipson is the author of the memoir in essays Mothers and Other Fictional Characters. Her writing has appeared in The Sun, Virginia Quarterly Review, LA Review of Books, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, and Marie Claire, among other venues. Her work has been awarded a Pushcart Prize, shortlisted for a National Magazine Award, and selected for The Best American Essays anthology. Originally from New York City, she lives outside of Boston with her husband and children.

    Nicole's Notes from the Sidelines:

    1. Needing an income paves a career path for women that takes them away from creative pursuits, and that career can become their identity.
    2. Trying to be the kind of mother who doesn't mess up her kids, is patient, self-sacrificing, and doting leads to a loss of her creative side.
    3. Mothers have been taught that the child's growth and success is linked to their every move and that there's no room for error, making it difficult for them to be creative.
    4. Nothing makes a woman realize life is fleeting like parenthood. Time is finite, so use it the way your heart wants.
    5. Many of our experiences prove valuable and impactful even when we don't realize it at the time.
    6. The art of writing helps bring understanding to confusing topics.
    7. There's nothing more dynamic than parenthood. We're growing, our kids are changing, and the world is in constant flux.
    8. "Unspeakable topics" are only unspeakable until someone has the courage to speak them.
    9. Safety makes vulnerability and complexity possible.
    10. "Maternal Solitude Deficit" explains mothers wanting to be there for their kids and wanting to be alone.
    11. It is incumbent upon mothers to act differently; we have a role we have in creating conditions around us.
    12. Say NO to things you don't want to do.
    13. Be forgiving with oneself, even if it's hard to resist societal pressures. Go easy on yourself.

  • 78 - Laura Cohen defines "healthy" and explains fatphobia
    Jun 4 2025
    🌐Check ⁠Jentle Coaching website⁠👉Follow ⁠@jentlecoaching on Instagram⁠📣Join ⁠Sideline Sisters Facebook Group⁠ ☎️⁠Book a CONNECTION CALL⁠ ⭐️Get the ⁠newsletter⁠🌿🧘🥑Save 10% on your next CANYON RANCH TRIP⁠📝Fill out the COACHING APPLICATION🥵Save 10% on your HOT OR JUST ME? orderWhen the world shut down in 2022, Laura Cohen’s world turned upside down in a much more personal way - her 16-year-old daughter was diagnosed with an eating disorder. As a former Registered Dietitian, Laura found herself navigating unfamiliar and emotionally challenging terrain, seeking answers far beyond clinical training. What she discovered sparked a transformation - not just in how she supported her daughter, but in how she viewed food, “wellness”, and the broader culture around both.Today, Laura serves as a Lead Family Mentor with Equip, helping other families find their footing during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. She has shifted both personally and professionally from a background rooted in traditional dietetics to embracing an anti-diet, recovery-informed approach. Laura holds a Bachelor of Science in Coordinated Dietetics from Syracuse University, a Master of Science in Food and Nutrition from NYU, and an Associate’s Degree in Culinary Arts from Johnson and Wales University.Laura brings both lived experience and professional insight to the conversation—grounded, compassionate, and always learning alongside the families she serves.Laura's Notes from the Sidelines:What is "healthy"? Get in touch with what feels good in your body. Healthy is not defined by social construct. Someone else's definition is BS.Weight is not a health marker.Society and medical world are fatphobic. They shame, ignore, and dismiss people who are fat, overweight, or larger-bodied. Changing habits should not be linked to a number on the scale. If you want to change to healthy habits, do it because you want to, not because someone shames you.Smaller body does not equal healthy. Having a smaller body does not have anything to do with you how you feel. Anorexia does not mean a small body.Social determinants of health are: connection, sleep, safety, access to food with nutrients, healthcare, stress management, and joyful movement.Body autonomy means doing what you want for your body, and knowing what and why you're doing it.Eating disorders increase in middle age, which is a step backwards from all the work women have done over the years to learn to appreciate our bodies.As you age, your body changes. It's natural, so why are we told by society that it's a bad thing??You choose what's important to focus on when you're aging, but make sure you're choosing for you and not for someone else.Instead of soothing emotions with food and drink, try: personal growth, DBT skills, self-talk, being honest with self, play online games, exercise in a way that feels good, fresh air, be with dogs, binge watch shows, and read.Find connection... somewhere... with likeminded people. Online friends are great!Find peace within yourself somewhere. You don't need external validation. Enjoy being with your thoughts.Jenny and Leah from Anti-Diet Life PodcastJenny's appearance on a menopause podcastLaura's websiteAnti-Diet book by Christy Harrison**The information provided on this podcast does not, and is not intended to constitute legal or medical advice; all information, content, and material on this site are for general informational purposes only.

    Hunter Clarke-Fields is the host Mindful Parenting Podcast (Top 0.5% podcast ), global speaker, number 1 bestselling author of “Raising Good Humans” and “Raising Good Humans Every Day,” Mindfulness Meditation teacher and creator of the Mindful Parenting Course and Teacher Training.Hunter has over 20 years of experience in meditation and yoga practices and has taught mindfulness to thousands worldwide.

    Hunter's Notes from the Sidelines:

    1. "How to respond" advice sucks. To parent mindfully, you must have a foundation of self-care and awareness of your needs, which will help you be less reactive, use your whole brain, and not just freak out. And, you need skillful communication.
    2. When a kid has a problem and goes into fight, flight, or freeze, what they need is to feel seen and for us as parents to acknowledge what they're saying and feeling. Offering solutions and advising creates a barrier to communication and builds resentment.
    3. Instead of offering solutions and advising, try reflective listening, asking, "What do you need from me?"
    4. Shaming, blaming, ordering, and offering advice aren't welcome. Instead, try I messages. Tell the child how their behavior makes you feel.
    5. Culture tells us a lie that teens are supposed to hate their parents so we give up on trying. You are in a relationship with your kids, and you want to cultivate closeness.
    6. Win-win problem solving offers the opportunity empowering conversations. Say, "This is what needs to happen. Help me solve the problem." Best done over ice cream.
    7. It's never too late to work on your relationship with your kids. Sure, it's hard to learn a new language, and you'll mess up. You have permission to be human. What you practice grows stronger.

    Kristina Driscoll is the founder of She’s Brave, a platform dedicated to inspiring women through storytelling, bold action and community building.

    After years in the finance industry, Kristina’s life took an unexpected turn when she became a full-time caregiver for her husband, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. This transformative experience fueled her passion for empowering women to overcome adversity and pursue their dreams.

    Through the She’s Brave podcast community, Kristina shares authentic stories of courage, resilience, and triumph, fostering a supportive space for women to connect, learn, and grow together.

    Her mission is to ignite the inner bravery within every woman, encouraging them to create lives filled with purpose, passion and joy. Today, Kristina has found love again and is remarried, living outside Seattle, Washington. As a mother to her beloved son, Kristina continues to inspire women worldwide, demonstrating that love, strength, and resilience can transform life’s challenges into opportunities for growth and fulfillment.


    Kristina's Notes from the Sidelines:

    1. Midlife women go through an identity crisis - it happens because we realize we don't have infinite amounts of time and we want more.
    2. Try this exercise: reach out to 5 people you love and ask how they see you and what they think your strengths are.
    3. Putting yourself first isn't easy, so start by taking one brave action such as starting your day powerfully. Carving out time for yourself in the morning tells your brain and body that you matter.
    4. Stop beating yourself up for being a people pleaser; it's a result of thousands of years of conditioning.
    5. Why are we inauthentic? Because we are afraid of losing people.
    6. When you are vulnerable with people, your relationships deepen.
    7. To deal with tech, curate your social media feed, leave your phone at home when you go out with loved ones, and post without scrolling.
    8. It's okay to disagree and speak up for yourself.
    9. If you live inauthentically, you will be unhappy. We must have the courage to be authentic; our happiness depends on it.
    10. Gratitude is the easiest first step toward living authentically. Wake up and write down 3 things you're grateful for and look at the list in a week. Notice the magic that comes your way.
    11. Give yourself permission to rest, work at your own pace, and do things your own way.

    Vanessa's Notes from the Sidelines:

    1. Sharing openly on social medial can help others.
    2. What do we have control over? Our education and our health.
    3. The word "prioritize" means to empower yourself, because you deserve it.
    4. Stay in your lane and stop judging others.
    5. Recognize your capacity, acknowledge your strengths and weaknesses, prioritize family and well-being, and believe in yourself.
    6. Travel helps you meet people from all walks of life and lets you better understand people, gives you street-smarts, and opens you up to many perspectives.
    7. Sustainability means different things to different people but boils down to being mindful of what we have and trying to avoid overconsumption.
    8. Be careful what you share openly to other people and on social media.

    ⭐️Get the ⁠newsletter⁠B A Paris is the New York Times and Sunday Times best-selling author of seven novels including Behind Closed Doors and her latest thriller The Guest. Over 7 million editions of her work have been sold worldwide and her books have been translated into 41 languages.Before becoming an author, B A Paris, who lived in France for 37 years before moving back to the UK, worked in finance before retraining as an English teacher and setting up a language school with her husband whilst brining up their five daughters. Today she writes from her cottage in Hampshire, England.

    BA's Notes from the Sidelines:

    1. Self-belief: experience rejection then feel rage or disappointment then think, "I am gonna make it." If somebody says you can't, show them you can.
    2. Women are famous for being selfless and putting their families first. Where in your life can you have something that's yours?
    3. It's better to try and fail than never to have tried at all.
    4. Since fact is stranger than fiction, it makes sense that women readers find themselves in her books, and fortunately have found the courage to act.
    5. BA wrote The Dilemma because she felt people should ask themselves, "How far would you go to protect your loved ones and give them a few more hours of joy?"
    6. Take time for yourself and do what makes you happy.
    7. Learn to say, "NO."

    Jenny Cheifetz is a life and breathwork coach at Jentle Coaching. She lives in New Hampshire with her husband, children, and two dogs. She energizes no-BS women to take back their power, reignite their passions, and step off the sidelines. Guiding clients toward finding their authenticity is a cornerstone of her work. Her clients want to feel calm, confident, free, and excited about life.

    Jenny helps them learn strategies for managing stress and creating balance so they don't get buried in work or family and actually make time for themselves, guilt-free.

    In addition to coaching and facilitating workshops, Jenny leads a community on Facebook, and she is the host of the Sideline Sisters podcast that showcases stories of badass, yet relatable, women doing really cool stuff in the world.


    Jenny's Notes from the Sidelines:

    1. Take time to honor yourself.
    2. Personal growth is work.
    3. We choose how we live our lives and how we show up.
    4. How we behave today is a direct result of our past experiences.
    5. Our minds create stories; stories affirm identities; identities create more stories. It's a vicious cycle.
    6. Somatic practices like breathwork, shaking, and screaming help us process energy.
    7. SHE is our highest self. Ask, "What would SHE do?"
    8. Rain falls, birds fly, flowers grow, and some event happened. That's it. No story.
    9. Responding is different from reacting. Reacting is impulsive and often aggressive. Responding is intentional.
