This week on Worth The Weight, we’re diving deep into how living in a constant state of fight or flight impacts our mental health, our relationship with food, and our bodies.Chronic stress keeps our cortisol levels elevated, which can lead to anxiety, burnout, emotional eating, and stubborn weight gain. But it often goes deeper than everyday stress — unresolved trauma can wire our nervous system to stay in survival mode long-term. We unpack how past trauma keeps us stuck in this heightened state, hijacking our hunger cues, sleep, mood, and metabolism, and share strategies for breaking the cycle and calming the body.

We also get into the viral story of body-positive influencer Remi Bader, who recently revealed on Khloé Kardashian's podcast that she secretly had gastric sleeve surgery to lose weight. Her revelation left her followers feeling blindsided and betrayed.

We explore the toxic dynamics of parasocial relationships, the pressure influencers face to appear “authentic,” and whether Remi owed her community more transparency. Plus, we take a hard look at the culture of dishonesty in influencer spaces and what it means for those of us seeking real, honest conversations about body image and wellness.

Join us for this honest, no-holds-barred conversation!
