Download Lost and Found: Unexpected Revelations About Food and Money AudioBook Free
The number-one New York Times best-selling author of Women, Food and God explores how emotional problems with money mirror those with food and dieting. When Geneen Roth and her partner lost their life savings, Roth signed up with the an incredible number of Americans interacting with financial turbulence, doubt, and abrupt reversals in their expectations. The resulting shock was the catalyst for her to explore, in workshops and in her own life, how women's patterns and actions around money-as with food-can business lead to exactly the situations they most want to avoid. Roth discovered her own unconscious choices: binge shopping followed by durations of budgetary self-deprivation, "treating" herself with techniques that ultimately failed to maintain, and using money as a substitute for love, amongst others. As she reviewed the deep sources of these patterns, she confronted the hard truth about where her "self-protective" financial decisions possessed led. As in all of her catalogs, Roth relates her personal experience with irreverent humor and hard-won knowledge. Here, she offers provocative and radical strategies for transforming how exactly we feel and respond about the resources which should, and finally can, maintain and support our lives.
