Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of the Haya podcast! In today's episode, Amielle and I go down memory lane and think about some of the "mistakes" or things we would do differently on our wellness journeys. Both of us are big believers that every experience teaches you something and that while looking back, things might have been done differently, we appreciate the lessons that come with it. If there's one thing to take away from this episode, it would be to be your own health advocate! We hope you enjoy.

Gratitude is a word that gets used so often but there is truly so much power in being able to practice it. You get perspective, clarity and peace and so much more.  Grab some tissue boxes because things get emotional! We hope you enjoy :)

*TW: Eating Disorders, Calories, Calorie Counting*

In this episode, we share our thoughts on calorie counting culture including our perspectives around the efficacy of calories in vs calories out from our lived experiences. We constantly hear that the way to either loose or gain weight is to eat in a caloric deficit or surplus but we believe there is so much more to the equation which we discuss in detail in the episode. Amielle also shares the perspective of those who are struggling or have struggled with an eating disorder and the ramifications our highly calorie-centric society has on this population. We appreciate this topic is a sensitive one and are here for anyone who is struggling with food or disordered eating and is looking to connect with someone - don't hesitate to reach out to us on IG @thehayapodcast. Lots of love! - Ami and Esraa
