Dr. Glenn Livingston - Clinical Psychologist and Author of ​Never Binge Again - Episode 170

Episode 170 - Dr. Glenn Livingston Clinical Psychologist and Author of ​Never Binge Again

“The voice of justification is my inner pig...I don’t eat pig slop and I don’t let animals tell me what to do.”

“Use the present moment to be healthy.” - Dr Glenn Livingston

In Episode 170, the Two Fit Crazies have an amazing conversation with Dr. Glenn Livingston, clinical psychologist, and author of ​Never Binge Again. ​ Glenn openly discusses how his struggles with over exercising, or exercise bulimia, and binge eating led to his formerly obese state. As a psychologist, he was determined to understand why he felt he was not “whole” and wasn’t happy, so Glenn started studying the neurology of cravings and impulse control. Listen closely as Glenn reveals how we all have a “voice of justification” that he calls his “inner pig.” As one learns how to communicate with this “inner pig,” they will then experience newfound balance, freedoms, control, and safety. Dr. Glenn delves deeper into this concept in his book, Never Binge Again​, which you can attain FOR FREE on his website, www.neverbingeagain.com​. Quiet that inner pig!

David shares his amazing story starting when he was first diagnosed with stage four head and neck cancer over ten years ago to what he went through both physically and mentally while undergoing intense rounds of chemotherapy, radiation, and various surgeries. Thinking that “this was it,” David created the Dream & Believe Cancer Foundation, a nonprofit that raises funds to provide financial assistance, wellness services and HOPE to New Jersey families affected by a cancer diagnosis. For David, this would be his legacy after he was no longer with us. Today, David is ten years removed from his diagnosis and remains cancer-free! Listen closely as David discusses the importance of serving as a “beacon of hope” for patients and families as the foundation has now helped over 1,700 families and raised over 1.1 million dollars. Next on the agenda, David is planning community fundraising events, increasing business partnerships, and sponsoring athletes to raise funds on behalf of “TEAM DREAM!” In fact, look out for Two Fit Crazies at the Boston Marathon this April September running on behalf of David’s Dream & Believe Cancer Foundation!
