in this week's episode of what's my 100%, dené sits down with her dear friend Luis Mojica for a rich and expansive conversation that completely reframes our relationship with food.
together they explore:
- the concept of food animism: seeing food as a living being with its own intelligence and wisdom
- how understanding that the nutrients in our food are essentially the memory and information of the land they came from transforms eating into a deeply spiritual and somatic experience
- why our cravings are not failures of willpower but acts of unconscious alchemy
- the crucial distinction between regulation and modulation
- why so much of what we call nervous system work has quietly become a new form of suppression rather than a true invitation to let the body express, move, and complete what it's trying to communicate
- how co-regulation doesn't have to mean another person and that trees, sunlight, the earth, and food itself are all beings capable of holding and supporting our bodies
- the body's intelligence through life transitions
