Episode 26: Unlearning the diet mindset with Michelle Farrell


Listen Later

Today I’m talking with my friend and colleague Michelle Farrell. 

Michelle is a personal trainer and nutrition coach and I’m so thrilled to have her on because Michelle is a true champion for the health at every size movement and offering people a safe space to get support with exercise and food in a world where we’re always being told that being smaller is better.

We both get really candid with our own personal experiences with dieting and exercise and how that’s informed the way we try to help people battling the same things.

Here’s a little bit of what we cover: 

  • The myths around food “rules”
  • The turning point at a family party when Michelle realized things had gotten out of control
  • Why self trust is at the core of feeling comfortable with food
  • The actual reason why diets don’t work (it’s not what you think)
  • How severely restricting food is actually impacting your entire well being
  • What health really is (spoiler alert, its about away more than what size pants you wear)
