Welcome to The Daily Ascent. I'm Molly Carmel — and this is the podcast I always wished existed: a bite-sized, on-the-ground spiritual note that can shift your thinking and your outlook on life. Because sometimes, that's all it takes — a small shift in what we choose to believe — to make the day a little better, and to make us a little more awake, alive… and ascending. Each weekday, we climb together — rising above the noise, finding the flow, and getting grounded in what really matters so you can live your day with more meaning, connection, and ease.

Ep. 1 | The 15-Year-Old Who Taught Me the Hardest Spiritual Lesson

Épisode 1

lundi 3 novembre 2025 • Durée 14:32

In today's episode, I'm sharing how one tiny dinner-table moment with my 15-year-old goddaughter catapulted me straight out of adulthood and right back into my teenage self — and how a Celtic prayer helped me find my way back to love.

Whether it's parenting, friendship, or just life being life, this one's about the messy magic of being human — and the peace that comes when we stop needing to be right and start showing up with an undefended heart.

Question to carry into your day:
What might happen if you set down your armor and chose connection instead?

The Daily Ascent with Molly Carmel (Trailer)

lundi 3 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:31

Welcome to The Daily Ascent — a quick, meaningful moment in your day to pause, breathe, and come back to yourself. I'm Molly Carmel: therapist, coach, business owner, sister, godmother, dog mom, and a woman who's learned the hard way that real healing doesn't come from chasing fixes — it comes from finding truth.

Each weekday, I'll bring you real stories, simple insights, and honest reflections from my own winding path of recovery and growth. Together, we'll explore what it means to live with intention, stay grounded, and keep climbing — one small step at a time.

It's honest. It's hopeful. It's like your favorite morning ritual — the one that always leaves you feeling a little lighter, a little clearer, and a lot more human.

122. There's No Healing Without Feeling Safe

Épisode 122

mercredi 28 juin 2023 • Durée 39:10

In this episode of What You're Craving, you will listen to Leanne's story and her journey so far. Molly and Leanne talk a lot about the idea of being honest with the people around us, such as our friends and family who are supportive of our journey. When we are on a mission to quit an addiction - especially food addiction - we might think that sharing our struggles with others will make them leave. Leanne is living proof that is not the case.

It is important to be open with people we trust. But it is also essential to tell the truth to people you know will accept it, no matter what. On another topic, Leanne talks about the importance of having a community, a group of people she can trust - like the Breaking Up with Sugar group.

Episode Quotes

"I went to the group, I did the homework, I listened, and read, and really immersed myself in it but at the same time I realized that was this part of me that was just hanging on for dear life to my previous ways."
"If we are trying to establish safety and if you were to drop a bunch of weight like you would do on a quick-fix diet, I would actually think that would be rather disorienting. If you think about the weight as a shield."

31. Here's Why You're Doing the Best You Can and What To Do If You're Not Sure or Don't Know If You Are

Épisode 31

mercredi 29 septembre 2021 • Durée 28:53

On today's Solo Pod, I'm talking about the HUGE lie we tell ourselves - and that diet culture has told us for ages - that we always need to be doing better. Diet culture is a thief and terrorist when it comes to us achieving peace and happiness - it tells us we're never enough and always need to be doing more. I'm talking today all about why I truly truly believe we are all doing the best we can, the ways to break out of our perfectionist mindset and change our belief system, and what to do if you're not sure if you're doing your best or are afraid you're not (and ps: you ARE).

I'm obsessed with knowing all about you - what you're thinking and what you're up to, so please follow (and DM!) me on Instagram and Facebook and find more on my website. We're in this together and the journey is going to be so awesome.

30. Mia Kang on The Miracle of Connecting with Her Body and the Journey of Escaping Her Eating Disorder

Épisode 30

mercredi 22 septembre 2021 • Durée 40:48

In this episode, I get to have an incredibly insightful and authentic conversation (my favorite kind) with Mia Kang. Mia is a Hong Kong–born international model and author of the amazing book, KNOCKOUT. She discusses her story of struggling with her own eating disorder and addiction while working in the modeling industry, and how she unexpectedly found her solution in Indonesia at a Muay Thai gym, starting her on the path of true healing. We get to all the goods: how Mia is developing a new loving relationship with herself and her body (and how you can too!), why we should pay attention to our own internal wisdom, and how coming out of the shadows and into recovery is very, very possible.

Mia has graced the pages of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Sports Illustrated, among many others, and has worked with many international brands. She is currently the host of Bravo's Spy Games. She lives in New York City, when she is not in Thailand practicing Muay Thai. Beneath her success is the story of a woman who once lived and died by her weight. In her first book, KNOCKOUT she opens up about her struggles with bullying, anorexia, bulimia, body dysmorphia, drug addiction, anxiety, and even suicidal thoughts, and how, in a true life-saving moment, she eschewed normative body standards and, with the help of martial arts, learned to redefine her sense of self-worth.

If you want to know more about Mia, you can find her on Instagram, and you can listen to her amazing TED Talk here.

29. At Age 57, On Her Last Shred of Hope, A Woman's Journey to Completely Transform Her Life

Épisode 29

mercredi 15 septembre 2021 • Durée 28:29

In this episode, I'm talking with Lisa, a member of the Breaking Up with Sugar community who opens her heart to share the complete and total transformation of her physical, emotional, and spiritual self. At age 57, having been struggling with her relationship with food, weight, body and dieting since her late teens, and on her very last shred of hope, Lisa decided to try one last intervention. She broke up with sugar, connected with an incredible community of people on the same journey and her life completely changed for the better. We discuss this amazing transformation since discovering that sugar was the culprit in her compulsive eating and what she does to keep steady in her recovery every day. She explains why it's never too late to make a change, and talks us through the importance of taking one day at a time and finding support. You don't want to miss this!

I'm so excited to be talking with Stephanie Simbari and Elizabeth Kott, hosts of That's So Retrograde, a podcast that helps listeners to build their own wellness toolkit through their interviews of thought leaders in health and beyond. Stephanie and Elizabeth bring their experience on the wellness journey - as podcast hosts and amazing humans - to talk about their journey in finding their own intuition about what's best for them amongst all the opinions of various health and wellness gurus. We also get into talking through the harms of toxic positivity and spiritual bypassing, the importance of self-talk and taking action on micro habits, and why sometimes we need to visit the darkness first before finding the light. Join us as we talk it all through and have some great laughs along the way!

A truth teller with a knack for direct communication, Stephanie Simbari is the comedic backbone of That's So Retrograde. An Italian Jew from New York, and a born seeker, she performed for the better part of a decade as a stand up comic; exploring her personal truth and oversharing about it for laughs.

With a passion for turning ideas into things, it was her evolving interests that led her to merge podcasting and wellness 7 years ago, with listeners instantly connecting with her discerning tastes and specific brand of candid relatability.

26. How to Deal with Imperfection in Your Relationship with Food

Épisode 26

mercredi 25 août 2021 • Durée 27:31

Perfectionism is a killer - in my experience as a therapist, I've seen perfectionism and unrealistic expectations of ourselves derail, deflate and even destroy people's spirits and relationships with food. I can honestly say it's one of - and maybe even the biggest obstacles I see to creating a loving, stable relationship with food. Diet culture has told us for far too long that there's only one way to "succeed" in stopping overeating and losing weight, and anything short of that is failing! This couldn't be farther from the truth. In this episode, I talk about a very different, and much more effective way to deal with the inevitable imperfections in your relationship with food that helps to keep you moving in the direction of your goals, while also releasing you from the shame and diet roller coaster we know all too well!

I'm obsessed with knowing all about you, so please follow (and DM!) me on Instagram and Facebook and find more on my website. We're in this together and the journey is going to be so awesome.
