Today’s episode is all about overcoming fear of flying, which has been one of my personal biggest fears FOREVER. I have two guests today—Melissa Tiers, a multi-award winning author, lecturer and international hypnosis trainer specializing in practical neuroscience for clinicians, and Patrick Smith, the best-selling author of Ask the Pilot books and a practicing pilot for a major US airline. My hope is that between the two of them, we’re really attacking a fear of flying from all angles, and that this an episode you can share with any friends or family members who are afraid of flying and that you can come back to again and again until you feel safe, calm, and even excited to be in the air. This episode includes: how to trust that your pilot isn’t sleep deprived or intoxicated the exact level and type of training pilots receive if budget or international carriers are still safe enough to fly the 3 reasons flying has gotten SO MUCH safer since the 1980s turbulence: what it is, why we’re afraid of it, and why it’s not dangerous tips and tricks to avoid feeling turbulence (where to sit, what time of day to fly) what happens when there’s a real emergency on the plane (and exactly when and how you’ll know) why you shouldn’t be afraid of bad weather, dings and pings, the plane slowing down after takeoff, and aborted landings how to harness your neurology break habituated patterns of anxiety 3 science-backed techniques to instantly eliminate anxiety while booking, boarding, and while you’re actually in the air a 5-min guided meditation to help get rid of fear of flying PS: My very first product is live!!!

We’re taking a bit of a left turn today with an episode I am personally VERY excited about, which is all about How To Look Cute. Basically, this year, I realized how little my clothes reflected or conveyed who I am as a person, and it became my personal mission to figure out this whole style thing, which is how I discovered today’s amazing guest, stylist extraordinaire Charly Goss.On this episode, we talk about: her personal story, including how having tongue cancer twice impacted her life why fashion matters for so much more than just how you look one piece that every person should have in their closet to make any outfit instantly more stylish one thing people inadvertently do that makes them less stylish how to find shoes that are fashion forward but comfortable enough to walk in what clothing has the highest comfort to style ratio her surprising thoughts on how to dress for certain body types (what short people should wear, what pear shaped people should wear, etc) a genius tip to know what trends are going stick around and are worth investing in and which are more fleeting which fashion rules we should follow and which we shouldn’t listen to the one theory that will make anyone instantly stylish (both in your clothing and home decor!!) her shocking take on what “basics” you should spend money on her specific favorite stores for shoes, bags, trendy items, jeans, and more the ACTUAL difference between pricey jeans and more affordable ones the 5 items everyone should have in their closet I’m actually so excited to hear your thoughts on this episode—I’ve been absolutely loving our Instagram conversations about style and trends—so please screenshot as you’re listening and share any thoughts, feelings, and reaction on Instagram—I’m @lizmoody and Charly is @charlygoss.
