In this episode of The Whole Woman Podcast, Kim interviews co-host Rachel Lavin about her deeply honest and empowering book, The Donut Diaries. What started as a fitness memoir turned into a powerful story of healing, self-discovery, and letting go of shame around food and bodyimage.

Rachel opens up about the “lightbulb moment” with a client that changed the way she viewed nutrition, why rest is now a top priority, and how she’s learning to embrace her body at every stage—including menopause. They dive into what true health looks like beyond the scale and how women can rewrite the toxic messages they've been handed for decades.

What you'll hear:

• How Rachel wrote her book during COVID in just 3 months
• Her shift from restriction to food freedom
• Tips for advocating for yourself at the doctor’s office
• Real talk about rest, aging, and finding peace in your own skin
• Why choosing happiness is more powerful than chasing it

If you’ve ever felt at war with your body—this episode is for you.
