I have such a TREAT for you this week, my love. I’m so excited to introduce you to an evolutionary being who’s trying to make the world a better place for all of us in our sweet human bodies. Shanique Allen is a nutritional strategist and mindset coach. She helps people figure out how to filter out the noise of diet culture and nourish themselves in ways that suit their real lives. We talk about how to start freeing ourselves from the structures that keep us uncomfortable with our bodies, stressed about food, and chasing image goals that have nothing to do with health.

Make Magic:

The best thing you can do is to be kind to yourself. We’re all swimming in this pervasive, toxic culture. As we start to understand its influence on us, it’s natural to feel shame when we - inevitably - discover parts of that culture we’ve been perpetuating. Please, please, please treat yourself with compassion, and don’t beat yourself up.
