Ask Margot - Ep84 Today we're going to look at the different professions that help people with emotional and mental health, and I'll explain where my own work fits into that picture. We'll ask whether it's really possible to copy someone else's path to success, or whether each of us has to find our own. We'll explore what I believe is one of the greatest gifts we can give our children—teaching them to manage themselves. And, because life shouldn't always be too serious, we'll finish with one of the more entertaining subjects I've come across over the years... the Wine Diet, the Champagne Diet and a few thoughts about why successful weight loss probably has less to do with dieting than with the habits we choose every day. Margot is our go to for life problems. Listeners are encouraged to write in with a problem they are stuck on, and we will “Ask Margot” to provide sound, real and insightful advice. Play Episode
