Accountability is1111 one of the most important healthy adult skills we can develop! We have to develop this skill as most of us learned to react in negative ways when “confronted” with not following through with something we said we were going to do. We also shame ourselves horribly when we let ourselves down! Learning to be accountable in healthy ways… with compassion, is worth the effort. Listen in and learn how it’s done!

Scott Solarick is a therapist who works with patients, many who have a history of trauma, either Big T or small t trauma, which we have talked about it prior episodes. Unresolved trauma can impact our present lives in negative ways, which could show up in the form of not following through with healthy lifestyle behaviors resulting in weight gain or regain. Scott emphasizes how important the relationship with a therapist can be in working through issues that interfere with you living your healthiest life. Scott and I had such a relaxed conversation. I know you will find him to be as engaging as I did!
