Rebuilding Trust With Your Body

#182: Navigating Food Judgment (When Friends and Family Don't Understand Your Approach)


Listen Later

Ever feel like the people closest to you just don't understand your decision to stop dieting? Maybe they make comments about your body, question your food choices, or can't stop talking about their latest cleanse.

You're not alone, and you're certainly not wrong for choosing a different path!

In this episode, we're digging into how to navigate food judgment from friends and family when you're practicing intuitive eating. I'll share why their reactions make sense (even when they're hurtful), how to respond with grace and boundaries, and what to do when it feels triggering or isolating.

You'll walk away with practical tips and mindset shifts to protect your peace, honor your body, and stay grounded in your healing, even when others don't get it.

Ready to feel more confident in your food choices no matter who's watching? This one's for you!

Episode Highlights

  • Why family and friends might not get it
  • Common scenarios you'll probably face on your intuitive eating journey
  • Setting boundaries with grace and compassion
  • What NOT to do when you're dealing with family and friends
