Regenerative Agriculture Meets Personal Finance | Eddy Garcia & Sam Schiebold

SWAPPING PERFECTIONISM FOR DIRTY ALCHEMY.     Welcome to episode 13 of the Free Spirit Academy with Soul Reintegration Guide and Co-founder of Living Earth Systems Sam Schiebold.     Today we're talking to an incredible sustainable living expert which might not sound on topic but wait 'til you hear this conversation. Sam's business, Dirty Alchemy, is a guide to not only living more lightly on the earth but living more lightly in your heart. Now I KNOW that sounds cheesy but Sam;s writing isn't. There is to fluff, no vision boards, no positive affirmations, and no perfectionism. Her guidance on self love is SO far beyond bubble baths and overindulging in things that don't ultimately even FEEL good - it's the real deal kind of self-love that loves our awkwardness and our anger, and our overeating, and whatever else is showing up in our experience.     We talk about extremes. While I often share experiences of extreme dieting in hopes of one day finding the perfect body and living happily ever after - Sam shares her experience falling in love with sustainability and the zero-waste movement and permaculture, only to burn herself out in striving for perfectionism.     We talk about identity. While I once found a safe sort of identity as "the healthy one" and treated whatever diet I was a part of like I once treated religion - Sam talks about the identity she clung to as an environmentally-friendly vegan and how it was only in embracing ALL parts of herself - not just the parts that she liked or that fell into a certain category, that she really felt free and was able to create a sustainable LIFESTYLE and begin teaching others to do the same.     So if you, like us, have any tendency towards perfectionism. If you see yourself as "all or nothing" or you're either "on the wagon or off the wagon" - never really seeming to get anywhere, you'll really appreciate today's episode.     Links mentioned:Dirty Alchemy WebsiteSam on InstagramFree Spirit Academy website.Free Spirit Academy courses.Free Spirit Academy Facebook group.
