Nurturing Your Wellbeing With Denise episodes:

June 28, 2023 Menopause: why more information is not always supportive
My first nutritional therapy clients were often older than me and struggling with symptoms of menopause.
Through working with these women, I have learned and continue to learn that their behaviours influenced their experience of hormonal changes.
And what drives those behaviours…thoughts.
In our work…
We discovered many limiting beliefs and many areas where self care boundaries were not upheld.
We discovered that more information is not always supportive and indeed can be limiting.
In my work facilitating these women in their journey, I could support them to reduce the overwhelm and get busy doing!
Everyday you have a choice, make the choice today to listen to this episode, where I dive into:
👌 Boundaries, compassion and why we should be giving ourselves heaps of it through out the hormonal changes in life.
👌 Some questions you can ask yourself to see what it is you really need in those difficult moments.
🤩 Developing a positive mindset around menopause and changing the focus.
👌 Movement and menopause.
👌 Nutrition and how to use the nutritional information in menopause.

June 21, 2023Sugar Addiction with Aoife
On this episode, I am delighted to be joined by the incredible Aoife McMahon, an Irish Registered Dietitian Specialising in food and body image healing.
Aoife is the founder and CEO of the Centre for Liberating Nutrition. When Aoife graduated with a Bachelor’s Honours of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics, she knew that traditional approaches to ‘treating’ weight did not sit well with her. She knew from the start that she needed to meet her clients somewhere in the middle and started listening to the day-to-day lives of her clients to help them to truly heal their relationship with food and their body.
In this episode, Aoife and I discuss how you deserve more than a life of diets and food restriction and dive into the truth behind sugar addiction.
In this episode, we talk about:
The research behind sugar addiction and find out - are we really addicted to sugar?

Aoife shares her thoughts on comparing sugar to other addictive substances.

The signs of restriction and how you might recognize these food restrictions in your own life.

Leaning into compassion and how we need to focus more on health behaviors rather than a simple outcome measure such as weight.

Why health is subjective and how that ties into intuitive eating.
In the words of one of my wonderful clients “My body is the least interesting things about me”

June 07, 2023Embracing your enoughness through yoga, unlinking movement from body weight and finding hope with Shirlí
This week on the podcast, I chat to Shirlí from Vitality Vibe , in our conversation we discuss unlinking movement from body weight/appearance and how you can find hope and compassion through movement - movement that is not fixated on body image and diet culture standards.

We talk about:
How the first time Shirli discovered yoga she thought "what a load of crap" and what changed
The personal recovery journey that led Shirlí to yoga and what she learned along the way
How to manage self comparison, the inner critic and the ego when on the mat or practicing movement
How if we keep viewing movement as a way to achieve a certain body ideal we’ll forever be stuck in the on-again-off-again loop with exercise.
How to come from a place of compassion when it comes to movement and our body image

Finding what works best for you on a given day

Shirlí became a certified yoga instructor in 2012 and established Shirlí Yoga. In 2013 she was in an RTA that resulted in multiple injuries, the most significant a traumatic brain injury and a break in the C5 vertebrae in her neck. This accident became her catalyst for seeking and trying all types of healing modalities and she embarked on a journey of understanding how the mind and body can be influenced through our daily habits.

May 31, 2023Thin Privilege, Diet Culture and Your Relationship With Food
Welcome to the first episode of the brand new season of The Confident & Eating Podcast! This season, I am bringing you a new word to focus on..and that is CURIOSITY.

Why curiosity?

Well, curiosity is what opened me up to the world of intuitive eating and it really embodies the message that I want to share this season.

When I was studying nutrition is that I thought I could help the world by telling them what to do and what to eat, but through learning about my own privilege and the world around us I learned that privilege and think privilege create situations that make it easy for some and not so easy for others.

So what has privilege got to do with your relationship with food?

In this episode I discuss:
The first moment I realised my own thin privilege when I was on holiday in Spain.
Why body size, willpower, shape and weight is largely out of our control.
What exactly is thin privilege and how diet culture has impacted this.
Why weight loss does not actually equal better health.

And don't forget to subscribe and follow the podcast so you never miss an episode.
Remember, I love to hear from you so if this episode has impacted you or if you would like to share your own experience, do get in touch either by email [email protected] OR you can always contact me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/foodeenutrition/

May 24, 2023 SEASON 2: TRAILER
This season I am bringing you a new word - curiosity.

Get curious as to how you can support your health the non-diet way. Because you know in your heart that the diet’s don’t work.
And I know that you are overwhelmed with the all of information that you should be doing in regards to your health and diet.

My aim this season, is to give you the tools and support to clarify your WHY for your self care.

This season I want you to tap into your deep curiosity to learn new approaches. Because deep in your heart you know the diet is not working, you know that trying to be ‘perfect’ is causing you nothing but overwhelm and stress..

I also thought I needed to be perfect. I thought I needed to change who I was. How wrong was I? It was the mistake that I made that I want to prevent you from making.

Take a listen to learn to see what IS possible for you as I help you to change your thoughts so that you can open up to curiosity and learn about ways you can eat to live - not live to eat.

I have so much planned for you this season over the next 10 weeks so stay tuned!
