Satisfaction Factor

This week, Naomi & Sadie kick off a series of episodes that dive deep into each of the Intuitive Eating principles! This episode includes an introduction to the framework of Intuitive Eating & a discussion of Principle #1 - Reject the Diet Mentality. And, the first episode covered a lot about the concept of diet culture, this one digs into the problem with actual diets, like: the health risks of diets, the strength of the science behind the reality that diets don't work, and the harms of yo-yo dieting & weight stigma. This episode also covers: what we mean when we talk about a natural set point weight (and what we don't mean), why it's normal to still want weight loss when we first start Intuitive Eating, how we can bridge the gap between intellectual understanding & belief, and how this work improves so many aspects of our lives. Plus, why Noom is absolutely not Intuitive Eating!!

In this episode, Sadie & Naomi talk all about diet & health red flags….but not in the way you’ve probably heard that phrase before! Instead of the usual fearmongering about food, exercise, and body size, this episode is all about how diet culture & disordered eating or exercise behaviors can sneak up on us, and how we might be (inadvertently) contributing to some harmful social norms. Because sometimes the things we think are helpful, are actually….not so helpful. This episode covers: how health is super complicated, and not something we can judge by body size; how consent is important in all things, including conversations about health; how moralizing anything - food, exercise, bodies, health - does more harm than good; and so much more! Plus, Naomi gives us a whole lesson on Oreo flavors!

Diet talk is not a neutral act, and it can actually stand in the way of our forming deep connections and community. In this episode, Sadie & Naomi chat all about why diet talk is harmful, the difference between diet talk and diet-culture-talk, specific techniques for navigating these conversations on a personal or professional level, and how having good boundaries can actually help us form stronger relationships. (And don't miss our Whole 30 rant!)

How we feel about our bodies is a whole lot more complicated than advice like "just love your body" makes it seem! In this episode, Sadie & Naomi dig into how to remove binary thinking from our body feelings, the nuances of common entry points into healing our relationships to our bodies, the problems with mainstream body positivity, the societal norms and structures that influence our feelings about our bodies, and the ways in which our feelings about our bodies can impact our whole lives. (Plus, some weird metaphors from Naomi to illustrate some of these points!)

Have you ever heard the phrase "diet culture" and wondered what the heck it was all about? In this episode, Sadie & Naomi do a deep dive into what diet culture is, what it means to be anti-diet culture, and all the ways that diet culture shows up in our lives far beyond whether or not we can eat ice cream.
