Break the Rules

77. Why you don't actually have body autonomy...


Listen Later

You know you have body autonomy


You’ve heard it time and time again, you have autonomy over what you decide to do with your body


It’s your choice


And yet it doesn’t actually feel like a choice


Not pursuing weight loss feels uncomfortable, distressing, scary, maybe even unfathomable to you


And pursuing it feels urgent, pressured and like your mood, your eating and how you feel about yourself relies on that number trending down (or at least not going up)


And on top of that, it feels like you’re relying on willpower that could topple at any moment, your eating habits can swing excessively and there’s a noise that never quite switches off in your brain around food


What if this wasn’t about your discipline but the fact your choices aren’t actually coming from autonomy (even if you think they are)? 👀


We’re getting into:


  • Why “my body, my choice” isn’t the full picture
  • The subtle signs your choices or weight loss goals aren’t as autonomous as they feel
  • The hidden pressure shaping your goals (and your yo-yo with food)
  • Why you feel stuck between food freedom and body change
  • And what actually changes when you do have real autonomy


So get listening


And if you’re ready to get food out of your brainspace, stop feeling like you’re one moment away from bingeing or falling off track and finally make sustainable changes to your eating and your health that feel calm, trusting and come from YOU (not your next diet or accountability challenge)


1:1 coaching is where we build the autonomy in your relationship with food, yourself and your body to do exactly that - you can apply here
