77. Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) - a podcast by Kye Plant

from 2019-03-11T19:00

:: ::

Aneela Kumar struggled with hair pulling (trichotillomania) since a young age (because of an underlying anxiety).  It wasn't until she was standing atop her business's building in NYC, wishing she could jump that she was able to finally make the changes to live a healthier life (quit her "stable", yet unfulfilling life, went backpacking, went back to school and started a career in a creative venture). She started a company called Habit Aware that has a Keen bracelet which helps people who suffer from BFRBs.

We also discuss:
how it's "not that easy" to "stop a bad habit",
OCD intrusive thoughts and compulsions,
purpose,
pain + struggle,
father dying of cancer in her teens,
being a tomboy,
and so much more!
