  • 93. Transforming Body Image Through Journals and Affirmations: Insights from Alejandra Porta

    Welcome to another episode!

    I had the joy of speaking with the incredibly insightful Alejandra Porta. Alejandra is a designer and the creative mind behind a transformative journal and affirmation deck that promotes positivity and health at any size. Our conversation delved into some crucial topics: body image, mental health, and the influence of societal standards on self-acceptance.


    Alejandra shared personal stories of how diet culture had impacted her, highlighting the struggle many of us face in trying to fit an unrealistic mold. It's a battle that often feels isolating, but knowing that others share these experiences can be incredibly validating.

    We discussed how daily affirmations could help shift our mindset. When you wake up and start your day by affirming your worth and rejecting negative stereotypes, you slowly reprogram your mind to recognize and celebrate your unique beauty and value. Alejandra’s designs aim to inspire and uplift, providing a tangible way for people to engage with their self-care practices.

    One of the most profound pieces of advice Alejandra shared was the importance of taking your time and not rushing through personal endeavors. It’s refreshing to hear this reminder to slow down and honor our individual journeys in a world obsessed with instant results.

    Remember, healing is a collective effort, and by supporting one another, we can create a world where everyone feels empowered and accepted. Thank you for being part of the movement to dismantle diet culture and embrace true health and self-acceptance.

  • 91. “Is Grad School for Me?”

    Welcome to another episode of Dismantling Diet Culture: Fuck Being Calladita. In Episode 91, we dive deep into the question many of us ponder: “Is Grad School for Me?” Joined by distinguished guests, Dr. Miroslava Chavez Garcia, a Professor of History at UC Santa Barbara, and Dr. Yvette Martinez-Vu, a grad school productivity coach and co-host of the Grad School Femme Mentoring podcast, we explore the intricacies of academic pursuits, the hurdles faced by marginalized communities, and the importance of self-care.


    Academia is certainly not a one-size-fits-all journey. It demands passion, resilience, and a strong support system, especially for those from underrepresented communities. Whether you’re contemplating grad school or already deep into your academic journey, remember that it’s okay to prioritize your mental health and well-being.

    For those interested in exploring this topic further, I highly recommend picking up a copy of "Is Grad School For Me?" by Dr. Miroslava Chavez Garcia and Dr. Yvette Martinez-Vu, available with a discount on their website using a specific code from UC Press

  • 90. Embracing Gratitude: A Pathway to Healing and Connection

    Welcome to another solo episode!



    dive deep into the transformative power of gratitude. Gratitude is the quality of being thankful and appreciating the good things in our lives. At its core, it requires awareness, recognition, and acknowledgment. We cannot truly give gratitude if we’re in a negative state of mind or don’t see the blessings around us. It's not uncommon to think, “What the fuck am I grateful for? I'm struggling,” especially when life is difficult. But it's precisely during these tough times that practicing gratitude can offer the most profound shifts in our energy and mindset.


    Gratitude can be as simple as waking up in the morning and thanking the creator, the ancestors, or the spirits for another day of life. It’s recognizing the small blessings, whether it’s the ability to breathe, having food and shelter, or feeling safe. Often, we take these basic things for granted.

    Our offerings don’t have to be material; they can be simple actions like watering a plant, singing or slowing down to be more present. These small acts cultivate a mindful and harmonious relationship with the world around us.

  • 89. Embracing Transformation: Journey to Body Liberation and Healing

    Welcome to another episode!


    Today I had the honor to share the space with Kim Guerra, a therapist, author, and creator of the "Badass Bonita" brand and someone I call a friend. 

    In our conversation, Kim and I delved into the intricate connection between childhood trauma, family influence, and diet culture. Growing up in an immigrant family in Los Angeles, Kim faced the challenges of responsibility and survival, coupled with the heavy burden of trauma. These experiences, compounded by societal pressures, led to feelings of shame and self-blame for her body. Kim poignantly shared how her conditioning as a child to be silent and obedient contributed to internalized shame and disordered eating as a way to regain control amidst the chaos.

    Kim's book, "Badass Bonita: Breaking Silence, Becoming Revolution, Unearth Your Inner Guerrera," provides a framework for achieving body liberation. Through her writing, Kim shares her deeply personal experiences, such as trauma, abuse, divorce, family dynamics, queerness, and intergenerational healing. The book is structured in four parts, each representing a stage of transformation: Caterpillar, Chrysalis, Breakthrough, and Using Wings.

    This metaphorical journey from caterpillar to butterfly echoes the challenging yet necessary steps we must take for personal and communal growth. Emphasizing the goal of body sovereignty and liberation, Kim's work serves as both a guide and an encouragement for others to embark on their healing journeys.

     I invite listeners to support Kim by purchasing her book, available in various formats on Instagram and TikTok under the handle "Badass x Bonita." Join her upcoming book events and  retreats.

  • 87. Empowering Latinas: Sonia's Insights on Embracing Change

    Welcome to another episode!

    Today I had the honor to share the space with Sonia Sanders, a Speaker, coach and founder of Mujeròn Movement. Sonia coaches Latinas to get out of their own way in order to take action, find their purpose and become the Mujerón of their dreams.

    After participating in Nuestra Belleza Latina, a national Reality TV show on Univision, Sonia realized there was a huge need for a platform that celebrated women for who they were and not what they looked like so she decided to amplify the stories of incredible Latinas who are doing big things professionally and in their lives that go far beyond their looks.

    Today, through the Mujerón Movement Event, podcast conversations and her coaching program, Mujerón University she creates community by bringing women together to work on becoming the best version of themselves and create a business and life they love.

    As a speaker, coach, and founder of the Mujeron Movement, Sonia has dedicated her life to empowering Latinas to step into their purpose. This episode offered a deep dive into her personal journey, the creation of her transformative programs, and her insights on self-care and personal growth. Here’s a more detailed look into the topics we covered.


    Sonia shared her personal struggles with body shaming and feelings of inadequacy, beginning with her participation in a beauty pageant. The term 'mujeron' often carries negative connotations related to body size and appearance in Latino households. However, Sonia has redefined it to signify a fearless woman who pursues her goals, engages in inner work, and gives back to the community. Her 'Mujeron' movement started with just a shirt and meetups in Phoenix and has evolved into virtual events, a podcast, and coaching programs.

  • 86. Be Your Own Cheerleader: Cultivating Self-Advocacy and Inner Strength

    In this solo episode I talk about the importance of being your own cheerleader. Life can be tough, and while community support is invaluable, developing the ability to cheer for ourselves is essential. 

    Be your own porrista!

    We must commit to becoming our own 'porrista numero uno' (number one cheerleader). Being your own cheerleader is a blend of self-awareness, positive self-talk, boundary-setting, and seeking external support. It’s about creating an inner ecosystem that thrives on self-encouragement and compassion. By implementing these strategies, you fortify yourself against life’s adversities and become better equipped to support others. After all, a well-nourished spirit can shine brightly in any community.

    Feel free to share how these practices resonate with you, either through a DM or by leaving a review on the podcast. Remember, you’re worth every bit of encouragement and love you can give yourself.

  • 85. Unraveling the Complexities of Dismantling Diet Culture: A Journey of Empowerment and Healing

    Welcome to another episode!

    I had the pleasure and honor to be in community wit Dr. Lisa N. Folden, a North Carolina licensed physical therapist, NASM certified behavior change specialist and Anti-diet Health & Body Image Coach. She owns Healthy Phit Physical Therapy & Wellness Consultants in Charlotte, NC where she provides trauma-informed and weight-inclusive care to clients in diverse bodies and those in eating disorder recovery.

    As a health at every size (HAES®️) ambassador and movement expert, Dr. Folden assists clients seeking healthier lifestyles. Her weight-neutral approach encourages intuitive eating, joyful movement, body acceptance and breaking up with toxic diet culture.

    Through her work as a weight-inclusive physical therapist and body image coach, Dr. Lisa embodies the essence of empowerment and healing. By creating safe spaces for individuals to explore their relationship with food and their bodies, she cultivates a sense of protection and support crucial for dismantling the shackles of diet culture. Encouraging intuitive eating and joyful movement, she celebrates the freedom that comes from detaching worth from body size.


    In the wake of my conversation with Dr. Lisa, I am reminded of the power of vulnerability, authenticity, and self-compassion in dismantling the toxic narratives that govern our relationships with food and our bodies. It's a call to action for each of us to embark on our unique journey of self-exploration, to challenge the status quo, and to reclaim our inherent worth beyond the confines of diet culture. As we navigate this terrain together, let us embody the resilience and courage that define true empowerment and healing.
