You Are Not Broken

177. Me and My Body Are A Team - Teaching Reconnection with Katrina Ubell, MD


Listen Later

A mindwork episode!

Dr. Ubell is one of the first physician life coaches!

She gained and lost the same 40 lbs at least 10 times since puberty and now helps women become a team with their body and stop obsessing over food using the power of mindwork. 

She reached out to me to be on the podcast and at first I didn’t know how to connect the dots besides life coaching. I have a podcast episode called “sex while fat” – we are okay at any size. I was worried she just wanted to talk about losing weight.

So I said Okay if we can talk about how mind work in her arena can also relate to a positive body image and sex life.

Like my older episodes talking about money and sex – these topics are more related than we think because of our thoughts about them.

“I am interested in people stopping hating themselves” – Dr. Ubell

What is diet culture?

The concept of mutual respect between you and your body.

Can weight loss goals exist with body positivity?

Shame is useless.

“I haven’t had success so there must be something wrong with me” Dr. Ubell

Why do we get numb or disconnected from our bodies?

Over eating as a trauma response – sexual assault or childhood trauma – I got big to not feel or too attractive.

Changing one’s identity requires changing our thoughts.

Menopause and weight gain/loss – watch what you believe about this.

Acceptance of our bodies as we get older.

Entitlement thoughts! I feel so seen! I am entitled to my latte!

How to stop invalidating your emotions

Relationship with yourself and thoughts about yourself are important for both weight loss and sexuality.
