  • A Look Inside My Career Trajectory and How I Ended Up Doing This Work.

    We completed the last episode in this series of Sessions last week. Today, Jillian is taking you inside of her long and cringe-y journey to finding this work and this point in her career. She talks about why it's okay to feel like a flake, why we often need to pivot in our careers multiple times, and the importance of pushing past the definitions we're given for health & wellness in order to create a model and philosophy that we're excited to live (and sell!) every day. 

    She also discusses:

    • The details of her new program - an 8 week intensive called Redefining Health for Professionals & Practitioners
    • Who this program is for?
    • Why this work will transform your practice/business and the results you get with your patients and clients
    • Special bonuses to look out for!

    • Session 7: When You're the Practitioner, Who Takes YOU Deeper in the Work?

      What happens when we try to hold ourselves to a standard that may not be possible or correct for us? In this 1:1 Session, Jillian works with a holistic health coach who feels like she's not where she'd like to be in her comfort or confidence around her body. She feels like her eating habits are erratic, that she still eats emotionally and mindlessly more often that is helpful, and that her progress is slow and messy. She's wondering how to continue to encourage others on their journey when she feels a bit stalled out on hers...

      They also discuss:

      • Fine tuning how you think things "should look" for practitioners
      • Why body image work is a process
      • The myths of the food freedom/body love process (i.e. needing to rest is wrong, carving out time shouldn't be necessary, progress should be linear and clear)
      • Dismantling the idea of 'perfect eating'
      • The connection between how you feel about your body and how you approach food
      • Aspiration to get to some mythical, happy, end point in the work, where you’re completely healed
      • Why putting in time and effort is part of Intuitive eating - and part of reclaiming your worth
      • Taking time to rest and integrate before moving on to the next level
      • Making peace with our bodies as they change through this process
      • Why it's totally normal for a practitioner to understand trust-based eating inside and out - but not be 'the best' at it!

      • Session 6: When Your Health & Wellness Education Doesn’t Include YOU!

        In this episode of Sessions - a podcast series where Jillian is working with individuals, live, 1:1 - Jillian works with a naturopathic medical student who is realizing that her education is missing some key ingredients. Worse than that, she's doubting her abilities as a practitioner because she doesn't feel like she "fits the mold" of health she's learning about. This session is all about deciding it's time to stop fitting-in and start breaking those old molds - so we can innovate and update and create health & wellness spaces that are safe and inclusive for all. 

        In this episode they discuss:

        • Struggling with your own body image issues, while trying to be the health navigator for others
        • Contradictory nutrition messaging in school. Who do you believe?
        • Feeling frustrated that you have to go outside of your long and expensive education to find all the missing pieces
        • Wondering why we learn all about the WHAT when it comes to food in education, but none of the HOW
        • Missing the greater context when it comes to food choices and access to health
        • Wanting to work with others but feeling like you're not measuring-up or fitting in
        • Having to work with the bodies of others when you’re stuck in compare and despair
        • Trying to figure out YOUR opinion when you’re taking in the thoughts and feelings of others
        • Learning how to NOT be a trigger for future patients

        • Session 5: When You Feel Like You’re Fighting a Losing Battle

          In this episode of Sessions - a podcast series where Jillian works with individuals, live, 1:1 - Jillian works with a registered holistic nutritionist and fitness coach who is struggling to find her footing in the anti-diet world. How do you compete with a 60 billion dollar weight loss industry and years of indoctrination? How do you offer up trust when all anyone is really interested in is control? 

          In this episode they cover:

          • Messaging. Being very clear on what you do and what you sell to avoid frustration.
          • How to work with people who want to be DONE with dieting... but also want to lose weight?
          • Is it confusing to post about food on social media? Does it send the wrong message?
          • Shrugging off assumptions about your profession
          • Are you strong enough in the fundamentals of this work? Is it possible that personal wavering is affecting your message?
          • How the diet industry is co-opting anti-diet messaging and making it so messy for everyone
          • A niche can be many things - it doesn't need to be a condition. It could be an age group!
          • The need to find community and persevere

          • Session 4: Doing the Work at Home, With Your Kids

            In this session, Jillian is working 1:1 with a mom who is an eating disorder survivor and works in the eating disorder field. She's excited and committed to Intuitive Eating and raising her daughters with a much more progressive view of food and bodies - but there are some tricky spots. In this session, they explore the challenges with trust-based eating models, particularly when you've survived an eating disorder and work in a field where you're exposed to the repercussions of control, everyday. 

            They also discuss:

            • How do you protect your kids from this culture
            • When you're interested in Intuitive Eating but scared that you might be throwing your kids into an experiment!
            • How the hardest thing about letting go of trust is worrying about where your child's body will end up, and how it will affect them
            • Trying to figure out the roadmap for a positive body image
            • Saying NO. When is it appropriate structure and when is it restriction?
            • When having a history of eating disorders, and working in the eating disorder field, leads to biases and fears in feeding
            • When and how to talk about 'healthy' food vs 'unhealthy' food
            • Why kids struggle with nutritional information
            • When kids are ready - and primed - to really get into the issues with the healthy food concept and the ideals behind it

            • Session 3: The Frustration of Helping Others While You Feel Like You're Struggling More Than Ever

              In this session Jillian works with a mental health professional who feels like she's saying all the right things, giving great advice and guidance to those she works with - while struggling herself. The ongoing trauma of listening to others berate their bodies regularly is destabilizing her and she can't find the support she needs, despite a warm and friendly work environment, because her colleagues are still stuck in diet culture. 

              In this episode, they discuss:

              • How to protect yourself when you're working with others who struggle with food and body
              • Why it's so hard to find support
              • The frustration of knowing how to coach others through these issues, and seeing them succeed, while you stays stuck
              • When work baggage shows up as reactive eating in your own life
              • How hard it is to stay true to your path when your path still isn’t clear - and it's being affected by the things you hear at work everyday
              • When the real work isn't about food or body - but about self-acceptance, worth, and enough-ness
              • The grief of 'otherness' - sitting in it and feeling your way through it
              • Why sometimes it’s easier to take a stand for others when we can't quite do it for ourselves

              • Session 2: Working in a WHOLE New Way (and Figuring Out How to Explain it to Your Colleagues!)

                In this episode, Jill works with a naturopathic doctor who's figuring out how to work from an anti-diet, weight-inclusive perspective. Her clients are demanding it - they are DONE with diets - but she's never been taught how to work with food in a trust-based way. 

                So begs the question - if we aren't just going to cut out gluten and dairy - what are we going to do?

                In this episode they discuss:

                • Add-in strategies for treatment
                • The foundation for trust-based eating and how to teach it
                • Why it can be so hard (and sometimes impossible) for people to cut out foods or food groups... and how to work around it
                • Working with people who've been told by their MD that if they don't lose weight, they'll "never get better"
                • What to do when you work in a practice filled with people who still buy into diet mentality and weight loss strategies

                  In this episode, Jillian works live, 1:1, with a practitioner who is struggling on her own personal journey to embodiment and food peace. 

                  In it they explore:

                  • the education she received and if there were important, fundamental truths of this work left out or watered-down
                  • what it takes to get out of your head and into your body
                  • a key, often forgotten, internal regulator
                  • digestive distress, is it real or created by negative food judgements and beliefs?
                  • how to manage a partner and children who view food and exercise completely differently
                  • is sugar affecting your hormones?
                  • when and how we should focus on food to improve health

                    • If you're a health & wellness professional and you're looking to shift your work to an anti-diet, weight-inclusive perspective (or if you're already working this way but you want to strengthen the foundation of your work) hop on the waitlist for my newest 8 week intensive training HERE.
