A couple weeks ago, I posted a poll on Instagram asking which nutrition/wellness trends you would all be interested in hearing me debunk (or validate as true!).

The most commonly asked questions were about sugar, carbs, seed oils and intermittent fasting. If you haven't yet listened to Episode #35 I'll direct you there to find out more about all things keto & carbs.

In today's episode, we talk about

Today's episode is inspired by some post-vacation reflections. We all know how routine is difficult to keep up when on vacation, during holiday seasons and even on weekends. I want to invite you to let go of the need to control the routine, and to not feel the need to justify your habits changing when life changes.

The "hall pass mentality" that I chat about is really about embracing permission to enjoy your experiences without succumbing to the all or nothing mindset that often has us feeling like we have to make up for our poor choices while on vacation. If you relate to this back and forth battle, or the stress of trying to uphold routines, this episode is for you!

I had the incredible privilege of chatting with Carly Compton recently about body image, embracing health at every size and recovering from dieting, disordered eating and eating disorders.

Carly is a HAES advocate, and an eating disorder survivor turned eating disorder therapist. When I discovered her social media, I was instantly hooked (if you are a client, you will know her well from my frequent sharing)! She uses her platform to educate on systems of oppression that perpetuate disordered eating & eating disorders, how to advocate for weight neutral health care, and live a life without dieting.

This episode is brought to you by the feelings of frustration that accompany weight cycling, no being able to look at oreos without gaining weight, and failure that is associated with struggling to see results or keep results when you're following a plan.

I want you to know that whatever discipline or willpower you think you're lacking, is actually just diet culture trying to steer you farther away from your set point - which is where we can live at peace with food and allow our body to keep our weight stable, without having to jump in and control.

Client Kelly joins me this week to share her transformation from being all-consumed by her weight loss goals and obsession with dieting, to stepping into intuitive eating. When we first started working together, Kelly was at a "dieting rock-bottom". Fast forward to now - after completing the Food and Body Freedom Course - Kelly feels the most confident and happy she has ever been.

Have you ever thought about trying to give yourself permission to eat without food rules, but feel like you will just end up eating donuts, doritos, cookies or chips all day? The food we may commonly (and unwarrantedly) refer to as "crap".

Or maybe, you've actually tried just eating. No food rules, no meals plans. What we would consider "eating intuitively" and you did in fact end up over indulging on all the sweet and salty treats.

I hear this far too often - and I know it is a huge barrier for women who are ready to ditch diet culture, but also fear the implications of a whole donut diet.

Have you ever felt like this world just gets heavier and harder to navigate as a woman?

Yeah, me too!

A few days ago I got chatting with my neighbour about her belly fat. She was sharing how upset she is that she just can't seem to get rid of it, despite doing all the right things - working out 5 days a week, eating clean, minimizing carbs. She's even tried intermittent fasting, and nothing seems to work. Sound familiar? This is a story I have heard all too often, and I know it is not an uncommon experience.

In today's episode, we dive into the why's, the what's and the myths (hence the title). Are all the things we believe to be doing "right" actually doing more harm than good?

If you relate to this experience, this is a conversation you will not want to miss!

My beautiful friend and current client in the Food & Body Freedom Course - Kate Reid - joins me to share her journey from being a chronic dieter for decades, to fully embracing her body and learning to be an intuitive eater. Growing up in the 80's, Kate was no stranger to all the fad diets that most of us know so well; weight waters, slimfast, juice cleanses, detoxes, calorie counting, fasting, cutting fat, cutting carbs. You name it, she's done it. Kate started becoming aware of her body - and what about it was not socially acceptable - at a very young age, but has finally - decades later - been able to overcome the obsession with "healthy eating" and following the ever changing health trends. She shares her best tips and trick to getting from a place of never feeling good enough and always wanting to lose weight, to living in total food and body freedom.

We chat about:

This is going to be such an expansive and empowering episode for anyone who is sick and tired of the dieting cycle that continues to leave you feeling not good enough, lacking willpower, or needing to fix yourself. If you are ready for a more sustainable approach, and a no bullshit conversation about what it takes to get there, you'll want to listen in!
