So this is a bit of a controversial episode. I'm going to play you the unedited audio from an interview that I did with Dr. Glenn Livingston about overeating.
Prior to recording this interview I didn't know anything about Dr. Livingston or his work. I was approached by his PR company or PR team about coming on the show. I've never said yes to cold emails like this for guests---I'm usually very protective of who comes on the show.
Needless to say, with a teething 5-month-old, I haven't had much sleep over the past few months. I've also been investing all of my mental and emotional resources into developing Decode Your Cravings. I needed an interview and Dr. Livingston showed up in my inbox. It also seemed like good timing since he wanted to talk about eating psychology.
I didn't have time to research Dr. Livingston's work before the interview either. I had no idea what to expect. That's where the controversy comes in: I found myself disagreeing with so much of what he said in the interview.
I didn't disagree with him outright because I didn't want him to feel like I railroaded him by accepting his invite and then tearing him apart when he showed up. So here's the deal: Listen to the interview, but know that I'll be releasing a follow up episode discussing the parts of the interview and his advice that I feel were very problematic.
That episode will come out very shortly, so stay tuned!
