Soon I hope to announce the first few episodes of my podcast ALL THINGS BFRB! I will start with a Question & Anwswer format, using Facebook Live to transmit and record. Then the videos will become available on my Youtube channel, for anyone to watch. I hope it becomes yet another useful resource for the BFRB Community! My focus will be on Recovery, and what that actually means to the individual, while addressing the conundrum of having BFRBs in general, and how best to navigate with a highly sensitized nervous system. We will address many Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors such as hair pulling, skin picking, nail biting, lip picking, scab picking, cuticle picking and so much more.

I plan on having a lot of fun sharing all the tips, insights, and concepts that have made my long-term BFRB recovery a success, along with stories from my early years, when I set out to give BFRBs a a voice, and demanded recognition from the medical and therapeutic community!

I am neither a doctor, nor a therapist; but as a longtime sufferer with now almost 30 years of strong BFRB recovery, and as the woman who established the worlds first BFRB organization, and brought together world-reknowned scientists, researchers and clinicians to form the first Scientific Advisory Board to research BFRBs, I have a lot of basic knowledge, personal experience, and a wealth of information that I want to share!

Basically, one could describe me as a visionary in the fields of BFRBs. I am an eighth grade drop-out (due to my hair pulling) with 35 years sobriety, almost 30 years of strong BFRB recovery, and I have a passion for others to experience the freedom from BFRB entrapment I have been gifted with.

I will also be posting interviews talking with fellow sufferers, scientists, researchers, treatment providers, as well as a wide range of hair and skin care service providers. I am so excited to introduce you to some of the up-and-coming BFRB activists within the BFRB community that are creating new ways to help reduce BFRB stigma, increase healing, and raise awareness!! See you soon!
