Welcome to Dismantling Diet Cultured: F*ck Being Calladita

Welcome to another solo episode!

In this solo episode I share my thoughts on why it’s crucial to understand the significance of Latinx/Latine Heritage Month, both personally and collectively. This special period runs from September 15 through October 15, covering the anniversaries of independence for several Latin American countries as well as Mexico.

The essence of Latine Heritage Month lies in elevating our communities, celebrating our contributions, and honoring our ancestors' struggles. This period is an opportunity for intentional reflection on our roles and responsibilities in making a meaningful impact on society. It's about asking ourselves, "What is the mark I want to leave inon this country? "

Our responsibility goes beyond mere acknowledgment; it demands action. We must initiate and participate in movements that challenge the status quo in the personal, professional, and social spheres. This is a call for social justice that echoes beyond the confines of this month.

It's also important to note what Latinx/Latine Heritage Month is not: an opportunity for cultural appropriation, tokenization, or performative allyship. If you are not part of the Latin American community, it is pivotal to approach this period with a genuine intent to understand and support rather than capitalize on it. Your actions should be intentional and aligned with fostering meaningful change.

Moreover, avoid asking women of color for free labor. Our contributions should be acknowledged and compensated, reflecting the value we bring.

I encourage you to reach out, collaborate, and uplift our community. If you’re interested in the intersections of undieting, immigrant identity, student parenting, and higher education, consider collaborating with me. Book me for your next event. Together, we can build stronger communities and bring healing at both individual and collective levels.

Thank you for being here!

Welcome back to another episode! This week, I had the pleasure of hosting Lauren Bell, a remarkable individual with a diverse background in psychology, public health, and nutrition. Her journey from feeling insecure about her body to becoming an advocate for holistic health and nutrition is genuinely inspiring.

One of Lauren’s significant contributions has been her work in addressing food insecurity among college students. She highlighted the importance of understanding how economic status influences food choices and the misconception that healthy eating is financially feasible for everyone.

By incorporating discussions on the impact of societal pressures and the dominance of diet culture, Lauren is helping to dismantle harmful myths perpetuated by social media trends.

Join me as we dive into her story and the broader topics of diet culture, food insecurity, and the critical need for representation in the public health sphere.

In this solo episode I share my personal reflections of the last year as I made another trip around the sun on August 22nd.

Grieving my loved ones, questioning societal norms, setting boundaries, and recognizing the importance of rest have been pivotal in my journey toward self-compassion. Each step forward, no matter how small, is a victory. As we navigate life's challenges, let us commit to being kinder to ourselves, honoring our emotions, and setting boundaries that protect our well-being. Together, we can create a supportive and nourishing environment for all.

Welcome to another episode!

I have the honor and pleasure to share the space with Dra. Monica Peralta. Dra. Mónica Peralta is a physician certified intuitive eating pros counselor, mindful eating coach and body liberation provider based in Nicaragua. She holds a postgraduate degree in nutrition and diabetes. During direct patient care, she is determined to provide a safe space for her patients using a weight inclusive approach. While living in a fat body, she promotes body diversity and fights fatphobia one social standard at a time.

In today's episode we unpacked complex topics like body standards, stigma, and the medical field's role in perpetuating weight-centric healthcare. Dr. Peralta opened up about the deficiencies she observed in the medical training system. The prevalent weight-centric approach not only oversimplifies health issues but also often leads to harmful patient care. This revelation steered her towards obtaining certifications in body-inclusive medical practices. The goal was clear – to ensure that future medical professionals could offer compassionate and holistic care, free from the biases of traditional health metrics.

Dr. Monica Peralta not only shared her professional insights but also her personal experiences and battles. Her story is a testament to the resilience required to challenge ingrained cultural and professional norms. As we continue our efforts in dismantling diet culture and promoting body liberation, remember that the change starts with challenging our perceptions.

Today, I had the privilege of discussing a crucial, yet often overlooked topic with guest Sima Al Safadi, is a Syrian American Registered Dietitian and intuitive eating counselor currently residing in the suburbs of Illinois. Sima was born in Kuwait but she’s lived in different parts of the world, Syria, Saudi Arabia, France and most recently in the US.

Our dialogue shed light on the insidious impact of diet culture, a subject close to both our hearts, and a prevalent issue sweeping across continents from the U.S. to the Middle East.

A significant part of our discussion focused on the alarming spread of Western diet culture across the globe. Sima illustrated how upon her return to Saudi Arabia, the rampant dieting trends and body image issues prevalent in the U.S. had begun making their mark even on Middle Eastern soil. This cultural infiltration fosters a sometimes toxic environment where personal worth is unnecessarily tied to physical appearance.
Breaking free from the clutches of diet culture is no straightforward task—it’s a battle against deeply rooted norms and personal insecurities. However, with continuous dialogue, education, and a supportive community, we inch closer each day to healthier, happier societies. Let’s embrace this journey with open hearts and minds ready to unlearn, learn, and heal.

In today's episode I had the pleasure to share the space with Rita-Soledad Fernández Paulino, a Queer Mexican-American, former math teacher turned money & self-care coach. After years of dealing with various autoimmune health issues, PTSD, and ADHD, Soledad learned to use money as a tool to support their wellness and is now committed to teaching other progressive BIPOC, women, and LGBTQ+ folk how to do the same. Soledad wants to see you engage in D.I.V.E.R.S.E. self-care daily because your wellness is essential to the collective.

Rita's innovative self-care acronym, DIVERSE, encapsulates habits crucial for nurturing one's bank account and interpersonal relationships. The focus on diversifying sources of income while investing in personal growth reflects a comprehensive approach to financial wellness that resonates deeply with many in marginalized communities.

On this episode of the podcast, Rita reminds us all that self-care and financial care are not just parallel tracks but are deeply woven into the fabric of our lives. Every choice that includes an investment in our well-being, be it through therapy, coaching, or learning, amplifies our potential to live a fully enriched life.

In this solo episode, I dive deep into a topic that has resonated profoundly with my students and listeners alike—the imposter phenomenon. Today I share insights, strategies, and much-needed encouragement to those grappling with feelings of inadequacy.

As a sociologist and a health coach, I advocate for acknowledging and reframing the language around this phenomenon. Rather than labeling it as a "syndrome," which implies a medical or psychological deficiency, we call it a "phenomenon" to underscore that it is a widespread experience influenced by external factors, not an inherent flaw.

Surround yourself with like-minded individuals who uplift and inspire you. Community is critical, especially for those of us navigating spaces where we are often times the only BIPOC person. Engage with people who encourage your growth and set boundaries with those who do not.

Remember, our ancestors thrived in communities, and so can we. Foster and nurture these relationships, as they are intrinsic to our well-being and success.
